    I guess the suggestion box moved here so I will reiterate one idea I mentioned earlier and add one: - a classroom demonstration of some physics phenomenon ( jc2048 had some good ideas ) - a solar powered…

    Keeping with July and (northern hemisphere) Summer time, I like Douglas' ideas. Demonstration of physical phenomenon for classroom is a great avenue, I was thinking lots of solar stuff. Charging systems…

    Time machine is not as crazy as it sounds - any machine that saves time or wastes time could be called a time machine.

    Good idea. I have never saw nor found nor able to buy Altoids image

    These seems just thought for electronics.

    Another theme idea.

     

    Project in a Tin. Altoids is a favourite but other tins are possible.

    I concur, 1.21GW sounds more like USB3 to me

    ...don't be ridiculous! Everyone knows a time machine requires more energy than you can generate with the 5v 2.5A Raspberry Pi wall wart. :-)

    Here are some ideas for quick projects.

     

    Simple music maker.

     

    Sound effects

     

    Lighting effects

     

    Motor motion

     

    Simple Theramin, subtopic, light, ultrasound, sound, capacitive, EM, and capacitive sense activated.

     

    Simple PIR tracker, Subtopic, light, ultrasound, sound, EM and capacitive sense activated.

     

    Use and accelerometer to control light and sound,

     

    I could go on, but my head hurts.

    I would like to extend Workshopshed and also pay honor to Peter Sallis (voice of Wallace) who died this weekend,

    and suggest combining timers and photography to create stop action photography video projects.
