Media Digest: Jan 10, 2020

Since most of my writing these days is done on external sites, I plan to do intermittent posts about some of the places where I write, or am otherwise featured externally. This is the first!

Popular Science: 3D-Printed Flower Pot

In this post I describe how to make a 3D-printed mold for a flower pot. I’m currently working a video based on this experimentation, and have two other projects that I plan to release/complete based on concrete techniques in the future.

Hackster.io

I write a lot of articles for hackster, and you can find them under my name here. One recent highlight was this Model Oldsmobile Dynamic 88, which uses micro servos to make the suspension effects amazingly realistic-looking. I also publish a lot of my projects on that site, so feel free to browse around!

ClearCrawler Photos for HackSpace Magazine

I was contacted by HackSpace Magazine about featuring my ClearCrawler. Naturally this meant a new photo session, including the shot to the right. More on this later, but you can of course see my Strandbeest adventures here on YouTube right now!

ClearCrawler Goes to SuperCon (Video)

I’ll probably do individual posts about my videos when they come out, but since it came out earlier, here it is. This video deals with how I actually transported the ClearCrawler to the show via airline, including some modifications to a Monoprice Hard case. You can find the full talk on Hackaday’s YouTube page, and my thoughts on the conference itself via Embedded Computing Design.

Final Thoughts

Hope you guys are having a great start to 2020. As always I have a huge number of projects and assignments going on, and look forward to what the year will bring.

I’ve been debating on what to call these posts. “Media Digest” is accurate. Wonder if “Media Cookbook” per my last name would be to cheesy? Any other ideas? Feel free to drop me a line via email: hi@jeremyscook.com or on Twitter @JeremySCook.
