Cornish Language Weekend 2013 - An Bennseythun Gernewek 2013

Don't forget that it's the Cornish Language Weekend in Newquay this weekend - details here.

Hiatus

Word Clock 2.0 has decided to stop working overnight, by which I mean that it is fine at the start of the night but is displaying gibberish at the end of it. Have lost interest in it for now, I need to do some memory checks to see if it is leaking memory somewhere and slowly running out.

In place of that I've started looking at some very basic robotics using the Magician chassis from Cool Components. Unfortunately other things are getting in the way at the moment so I don't currently have time to spend on them and have had to put all my electronics gear away for a couple of months!

Word Clock 2: part 3 of N

Finally got around to finishing the soldering on the Word Clock 2.  Some LEDs needed replacing and some joints that were iffy were redone. It's not pretty so I'm not going to post a picture of the back of the LED board, suffice it to say that the massive reduction in wires is a positive step!

I am very happy to be back to coding again after that round of snorting lead vapour.

Bledhen nowyth da!

Happy New Year!

Now that the festivities are already just a distant memory, hopefully it won't be long before progress will resume on Word Clock 2.0. I've missed the heavy whiff of solder...
