GitHubs top Coding Languages
I found this an interesting article. It shows some trends that are expected, C going down in the past few years and Objective C. Perl took quiet a nosedive and seems to have fallen off. I was surprised at the … Continue reading

Interesting, CUPS for driving a 3D printer
Interesting article about how to get 3D printing moving more for consumers, we need better drivers. And points out how CUPS, which is typically for 2D printing, is starting to go in that directions. http://hackaday.com/2015/08/20/drivers-for-3d-printers-and-why-we-need-them/

Make a simple sled for cutting circles on a table saw
I like this build, basically you slowly move the board up and spin it around each time you move to cut the edges off, til you get to the center, then done. Simple and doesn’t require you to modify your … Continue reading
Build an RC Catamaran
Nice build, the author took a plastic shoe box, some PVC pipe, 2 pool noodles, and make a propeller/steering system (oh and the motor/controller from an old RC car) to make a slick boat. Figure under $20 in parts (between … Continue reading
