Our friends in Luxembourg from syn2cat are having a little get together that is open to the public (as long as you RSVP for the 10 spots), to put together a number of Arduino units for your hacking pleasure.
From syn2cat’s wiki post:
What is it about?
On the 15th of March we are going to solder an Serial Arduino Board and a few Velleman Kits to afterwards.
Hack them and make them behave in a different way than originally conceived. (Limited to 10 People! Deadline: 8th of March)We will provide
There will be approximately 6 full soldering stations
with all the necessary gear (Multimeter, Wirecutter tools, etc…)These sets will be available FOR SALE. So in case you like what you did
and want to become a REAL Pirate make a future proof investment.Most of the Kits will be in 3 exemplars, if you are really keen on one, reserve it please.
- A Room (kindly provided by emQue)
- 6 30W Soldering Irons with an adequate Tip and stand (but please bring your own should you have one)
- 6 Third-hands
- 6 Multimeter (again, you have one bring it please)
- 6 Ubuntu Laptops with the Arduino IDE
- Power supplies (some regulated some not, Voltage varies)
- 500g (yeah) of 1mm and 0.7mm Solder
- De-soldering stuff
- Maybe an Oscilloscope (Who can bring one please?)
More details can be found on their wiki.
This event is also a wonderful way to meet the members of syn2cat and possibly even become a member yourself!
Cheers,
