Knitty and Model Railroad Projects!
A great project for model railroading and a cool LilyPad design!
Kalani Craig has written up a great project called Know It All on Knitty.com. This
project takes a LilyPad
Arduino, some LEDs,
a button,
and some clever programming to create a knitting bag designed to let the user know how exactly to stitch a given type of stitch. This is a great example of a creative project
centered around LilyPad! The kit parts are available here.
Next, check out this video of a project centered around an awesome model railroad! This 1'x4' scale layout, called Dawson Station, is based on the Hull-Oakes lumber mill located in Dawson, Oregon. As if this amazing set-up wasn't cool enough, it also has some awesome electronic gadgetry behind it. Using an Arduino, a WAV shield, and some others bits and pieces (including a board from BatchPCB), the designer created a great way for curious people to view a demo of his set-up.
