Projects for 2016

Happy New Years Everyone!!!

Here’s a preview of a few projects that I have planned for this year.

Automated AeroGarden

An automated AeroGarden based hydroponic-ish herb garden. I picked up this AeroGarden version 3 at a resale shop for about $8. I took it apart, cleaned it up, tested the unit and found it to be in working order. I need to replace the tubing and filter but all in all that’s a good find. I will be doing this project in stages. First will be 3d printing the planter cartridges that hold the sponge and just get the unit functioning. 2nd will be automating a few functions using an Arduino and holding tanks for nutrients and reserve water.

AeroGarden

Time-lapse Camera

An Arduino based Time-lapse Camera. This will be used in production of Dared to Survive shows.

Game Camera

An Arduino based Game Camera that will also collect environmental information such as Temperature, Humidity, etc. The data will be stored on an SD-Card and will be later used in an app to develop forecasting predictions.

Passive Repeater

I want to attempt a few things with a Passive Repeater design that integrates simple bi-directional amplification and/or filters.

Bench Top Power Supply

A simple bench top power supply made from PC and Server power supplies.

More Podcasts

I plan on starting a weekly 15 min per episode podcast covering my top 5 favorite Instructables projects.

I’m sure this list will change throughout the year so stay tuned. Have project suggestions or requests? Reach out to me @Mr_Red_Beard  on Twitter.

Ep08 – Superman 39 & 40 (New52)

Superman_Vol3_39_40_Wide

Mick and RedBeard cover Superman #39 & 40 – Human for a Day and that, uh, Justice League one.  Do you guys read this? Let me know and I’ll add some more stuff as it’s necessary.

Next time: For Now it looks like we’ll be covering Superman 41 (and maybe 42).

Ottoportrait

Things that Otto talked about during the conversation:

The Oscar Winning “Projects Lumiere”. They took all the obstacles the Lumiere brothers had when the first film was ever shot to tell a story. Same time too and done in one take. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBrAAwSUewY

Below is a few links to see some of Otto

Check out Otto on Babylon-5 Back in ’99 From Otto:

Here’s an oldie but goodie. Shot in 1999 I think,…CRUSADE, a Babylon 5 spin off that didn’t do well. My scene starts at 7:20 and I have 2 line at 7:55. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdIV2JWFnOw

Here’s Otto on Mad TV! Nice Fast ball Vic! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_IW6ZKNtaE

This last one is funny, and the outtakes are HILARIOUS!
