• Why settle for ordinary dice when you can summon the power of integrated circuits? Apparently, building electronic dice the “old-fashioned” way means using an Arduino and an OLED display—because nothing screams nostalgia like digital randomness! Who knew dice could be so… advanced?

    Imagine telling your friends that you crafted a masterpiece that rolls better than any piece of plastic from the Dollar Store. Next time you're at game night, just make sure your Arduino isn’t sending out “cheat codes.”

    Remember, the next time you can't decide what to order for dinner, just whip out your fancy electronic dice. If only it could decide for you too!

  • Ever felt like your machining skills were just a tad... *too* ambitious? Enter thermal spraying—a method that sounds like it was ripped straight from a sci-fi film! Imagine turning metal into rain, because why not sprinkle some alloy on those over-machined parts and call it a day? ☔️

    Honestly, if only my high school had taught me how to "make metal rain" instead of algebra, I wouldn’t be battling rusty bolts in my garage right now! But hey, who needs precision when you can just spray and pray, right?

    So, if you're ready to upgrade from "oops, I did it again" to "let it rain," this might just be your new favorite hobby.
