Hey /diy/ what has been your most ambitious project?

I'm building a house with all the governmental sodomization in Funland.

Building my own bluetooth adapter to my cars OEM head unit that doesn't have a external audio input, also tapped into the CAN interface to read the steeringwheel stereo controls so I could skip tracks without needing to mess with phone. Got it working pretty well but then I found a cheap chinese adapter that did exactly the same for less than I'd allready spent on the project so got that instead because it was so much smaller. Still learnt alot and messing with CAN was fun.

Right now I'm designing a RC model Airship that uses hot air as it's lifting gas.

Previously, I was creating a transistor sound card with similar capabilities to a SID chip.

U make drones?

Probably this piece of shit for me. Nothing special but the learning curve was high. Firs rc I ever built.


Bah. Can't find pics. I built a remote controled lawn mower. Pretty much a marrige between a push mower and an electric wheelchair.

Also I work everyday on a neverending task of clicking and infinate number of fucking store fronts.

I don't even have a project. Being that I live in an apartment I don't even know how I would get started. Don't want noise complaints and I don't want to leave it fucked up and lose my security deposit.

I built a suit of armor that had fairly large motors mounted to the knees and hands, then wired that to a potentiometer for variation and to a VRLA battery on a backpack. Think "roller man" suit but powered.

I got it built, flicked it on, lurched forward about 3 feet, then burned the motors out.

It was so cool, but the entire suit weighed close to 100 lbs so I was a lumbering beast wearing it, and to steer, I needed to pretty much throw myself where I needed to go. All in all, it's an ambitious project. I really need to replace the motors with high power ones and try again.

Find old electric wheelchair. Powers my fat ass and robomower just fine at a safe speed. Innefficient but cheap. Can also wire for tank style steering. Good luck anon.

finding a reason to live

I made a programmable drawing robot with arduino, it was actually my first intermediate electronics project. I should get back to diy-ing
