We have finished the year off with a trebuchet event, Christmas Crafts and the last PI Jam of the year.

Unfortunately due to ill health we only had two entries for the trebuchet contest.

The Christmas Craft event was well attended with the Laser Cutter out to good use.

Some visitors are already asking about next years event.

The last PI Jam was held on a Monday evening with the bew AI Camera on display.

We now have quite a collection of PI5’s and PICO’s for members to use.

Look out for more events in 2025.

I cannot believe it has been a year since our last post!

We went to create-a-con at the LCB depot in March, attended by several of our members and we had lots of visitors.

Throughout the year we have held Raspberry PI Jams which have been well attended, demonstrating the new PI5, the AI Hat and the Pico 2.

Our next one is November when hopefully we will have the new AI camera to demonstrate.

Halloween is nearly on us and we held a crafting session on Saturday October 26th.

The Laser Cutter and 3D printers were in use, along with other crafts.

Coming up in November is our Trebuchet event on November 16th and Christmas Crafts on the 30th.

We held a Sunday crafting event just before Christmas. The Laser Cutter was put to use making some baubles and lanterns out of plywood. Cardboard was not quite as successful, we need to work on the settings. The laser cutter still needs some fine-tuning for large cuts, but for small pieces it is fantastic. Keep your eye on Slack (for members) or Facebook for details on training courses.

Some pictures from our experience Raspberry PI 5 event. It attracted quite a bit of interest, from running Scratch to FFT analysis and the twin camera mode. Had a few problems with the latter but the issue has been sorted. Hopefully one of the PI’s will now be used in PI wars.

Did you see us at Punk Festival Weekend in Jubilee Square? This was our first outing since COVID lockdown. We had a great time demonstrating our 3D printers and textile area.
