Engineering Roundtable - The SpoolMaster 9000 with Paul
Check out today's episode of "Engineering Roundtable."
Over the last several years, E-textiles as a niche of DIY electronics has really expanded. As such, we offer a number of seweable electronics kits and products, many of which include a spool of conductive thread. Our kitters discovered that manually spooling the thread from large spools onto the smaller spools was a bit of a pain. Fortunately, we have Paul, SparkFun Mech-E, to create awesome solutions to all our problems.

Paul used a couple stepper motors, some 3D printed brackets, some hall effect sensors and some other bits and pieces to create an automated conductive thread spooling machine - the SpoolMaster 9000!
As always, feel free to leave any questions or comments below - we'll be back again soon with more "Engineering Roundtable."
