#onethingaweek — Public Fediverse posts

Finally put together this lovely blinky LED PCB designed by @davedarko. Unfortunately I was only able to get some faster blinking LEDs, but it’s still fun to look at. Still needs a case but that’s for another week

Almost 7 years ago, I build https://twitter.com/munichmakes, which posts about all hackery/makery events in and around Munich. And today, I finally managed to have that thing post to Mastodon as well :mastodance:
Say hi to @munichmakes

Finally got around to hook up the grid-tie inverter to the 100W panel, connect it to a Shelly, setup all the software magic and build a small grafana dashboard. Not expecting much in terms of power, since it’s an old panel, and more shade than sun over here, but every watt counts 😬

Last #onethingaweek post has been 1.5 months ago 🙈
Maybe I get around to finally setting up my solar panel this week, so there's something to "show off" #balkonpv

Made these soap dishes from waste PLA ♻️ the other day. Really nice finish, but still a few too many air bubbles so they should’ve stayed in the oven for longer. #preciousplastic #onethingaweek

Good day at the @preciousplasticmunich workspace today. Finally got most of our 3D printing waste sorted nicely into their buckets, and started making some soap dishes from the stuff that was too small to sort properly 🥳 #onethingaweek #preciousplastic #cleanshophappyshop

Guess I’ll start posting #onethingaweek stuff over here now. This week without pictures, but I started getting the #preciousplastic Munich workspace cleaned up again (which also happens to be my electronics workspace these days 😅🥳)

Missed a few #onethingaweek posts 🙈 it’s tough to find the time to make things, but last week I got to spent a entire day making pouches and small bags out of recycled plastic foil with @PreciousPlasMUC at #theroofs / #munich2022

#onethingaweek - Last week we did the first @PreciousPlasMUC event in a while: a workshop booth at #TEDxYouthMunich where we help a bunch of kids and young adults how to make pouches from self-made plastic „fabric“.

Working on a new @PreciousPlasMUC workshop format. First thing I made on a sewing machine all by myself 💪 #onethingaweek

Last week of my parental leave, and the sourdough game is getting better again 🤩 #onethingaweek

First loaf of sourdough bread in about two months 😍 sourdough starter was a bit hesitant and slow, still looks pretty good though 😬 #onethingaweek

For this week's #onethingaweek, I converted the old MakerVan Labs wiki to a static website. It's soooo much faster now 😻 It was a lot more work than I was hoping though 🙈
Still a bit of design work to do, but it's up and running 💪 https://wiki.makervan.de

Found half an hour this week to solder up a newer version of my Matrix Mixer. Seems to work and do what it’s supposed to 🥳 #onethingaweek

Surprised it really only took 30min. Now I need to find some time to document the new stuff 🙈

Das dies-wöchentliche #onethingaweek liegt in meinem Arm und schläft. Und der Zweite liegt im Bettchen daneben 🥰❤️❤️

Last week’s #onethingaweek: setting up our new dinner table. Which came with legs that wouldn’t fit. So I dremeled the tabletop to make it work 😒 and didn’t take any proper pictures 🙈

#onethingaweek Getting ready to hand over our old apartment meant cleaning out the basement and tearing down IKEA shelves in way too little space to do so properly 🙈
Does anyone in or around #Munich need a 5x5 EXPEDIT shelving unit?

Totally forgot posting about last weeks #onethingaweek. Finally got/built myself the standing desk I’ve wanted for quite a while 🥰
Still a few things to do but it does what it’s supposed to do already.

Erstes Brot aus dem neuen Backofen 😍 #onethingaweek #sauerteigultras

A friend got me motivated to finally put together part of my 18650 battery and the rest of the small solar setup I’ve had lying around for a few months now. Works fine, but needs the rest of the battery parts and better cables & connectors #onethingaweek #altpwr

Learned to use Processing today, to generate patterns for painting our walls #onethingaweek #generativeart

#onethingaweek Finally installed new lighting over the work table in the @PreciousPlasMUC container workspace. I have absolutely no idea how we managed without it 🤯😎

Didn’t really get to make anything this week #onethingaweek #selfisolation #failureisalwaysanoption

Got around to try making climbing holds with our @PreciousPlasMUC injection machine again last weekend. And got a quite decent result 🥳 #onethingaweek #preciousplastic

We fired up the @PreciousPlasMUC injection molder for the first time in years. Result was far from perfect (the white-blue part is how it should look 😅) but getting there should be manageable now 💪 Quite a big step forward! #onethingaweek #preciousplastic

My #onethingaweek has been fixing my CD player with nothing more than a screw driver, tweezers and a cotton swab. After I paid quite some money to have it fixed a not too long while back 😤

Made some not so physical stuff this week. Planning for @PreciousPlasMUC, as well as reviving the previously lost German #PreciousPlastic community discord server.
Also bought the matching domain, as one does 🤷 https://preciousplasticgermany.de/

#onethingaweek time: Whipped out the soldering iron today to put together another Syntiboard to test the code of another synth someone suggested to me: the Ellitone Multi-Synth

Yesterday was #repair day. A successful one as well. Fixed my tape deck with a new rubber band and some grease. Anyone know where to get proper rubber bands for stuff like that? This one's ~20 years old, and I replaced it with a regular household one. #onethingaweek

With the new @PreciousPlasMUC oven, I finally got around to try out some of our molds, and made these buttons, diamonds and a small sheet, all from 3D printing leftovers. Looking forward to make more of that 😁 #preciousplastic #onethingaweek
