TBHS: Raspberry Pi Zeros! Can Haz!

8 Apr 2016

In our last episode, we mentioned that we were unable to get our hands on a Raspberry Pi Zero when they were released. We've gotten a lot of build ideas revolving around the RPZero, but no Pis around for the making. Two wonderful fans of the show DID have some and they were gracious enough to mail them to us. Special thanks to Blacksheep32 and YouTube user, stryk187, aka Rob Lada for sending us your Raspberry Pi Zeros!

So now it's really time to submit your build suggestions! What would you like to see us build with these two fine pieces of electronics here? Let us know in the comments below.

How about the smallest laptop (of palm top) you have ever built? Could use a small touchscreen only about the size of the pi zero and a custom built keyboard.

This reminds me of something I saw in MAD magazine as a kid. To use the keyboard you had to use what looked like a thimble with a tiny finger on the tip to be able to press the buttons. Hilarious.

I would love to build something like that. Problem is Pi zeros are few and far between.
There is probably like a three year waiting list I'm not even on yet.

I'd love to see that, and maybe the other would be a matching world's smallest arcade cabinet that you'd need tweezers for the joystick? Burgertime would be perfect for this!
