@rpimag #makermonday (on a Tuesday) - more work on my 3D printed case for my Psion Pi project. Almost there, but need to reprint this box part to take account of some bits I missed.

@rpimag Just released the Open DMG Display:
An #OSHW IPS display mod for the classic Game Boy (DMG-01), based on the RP2350B.

@rpimag I went back to my picoDexed (Synth_Dexed on a Pico) and updated it for the latest Pico SDK and added a simple display and encoder.

I've not quite got to the stage shown in the photo - the sound isn't working on this one yet - but it's getting close (it worked fine on my breadboard version)!

And yes, this is one of my MiniDexed front panels...

@rpimag More work on my #Psion Pi project. I've given up trying to do a clamshell and am thinking of a non-hinged fixed-angle workstation now. Unfortunately, the design of a pass-through hinge was too much for me. Currently trying to figure out how to attach something like the back piece at that fixed angle to the foreground piece AND not print it "all in one" which would take too long in one go on my Ender 3 for my liking! #makermonday

@rpimag Maybe I'm a bit late, but it's still Monday ;) I documented my soldering process, which features the RP2350B.

@rpimag And whilst on the topic of EuroRack and RPi I've also had a contribution from a reader of my blog showing how to use my Zero-based MiniDexed PCB to run MT32-Pi which I've just written up today.

@rpimag I finally finished the EuroRack version of my "Krell" (from Forbidden Planet) display.

This one happens to be using a Tiny2040 from Pimoroni, so I don't know if that counts? :)

@rpimag Hello!
I made a jig to fix the camera in order to webstreaming the medaka from directly above! #MakerMonday

@rpimag I'm continuing with my GUI application created in Python PySide.

I've been looking at how to implement threads. This keeps the application responsive when the program needs to do some rendering in the background.

@rpimag Been working on the enclosure for my #Psion project. This is the top of it. The "blades" at the top are so the hinges don't get too stressed. I can appreciate their level of stress, today especially! #MakerMonday

@rpimag me and Phina (8) finished off her code for this years Astropi (and I don’t know who was more excited ). Love that this opportunity exists for kids! #MakerMonday

@rpimag I did a bit more work on my UART booting Flashless Picos. On the end of each "pico" there's an I2C port for the I/O expander (used to reset/setup the RP2350A to boot from UART) and a UART port to send the bin file/communicate after boot. The Pico2 in the PicoUART6 is running CircuitPython using Adafruit_CircuitPython_PIO_UART for the non-hardware UARTs.
