Hello Folks!

Myself and Robby (and maybe some others) will again be setting up
Circuit Hacking Monday (CHM) at Noisebridge, August 8, starting at 7pm
until about 10pm.

Circuit Hacking Monday is a great chance to learn how to solder,
learn about electronics, and/or learn about Noisebridge.
It is perfectly fine if you've never soldered before!

CHM is primarily about helping people make cool kits (listed below),
but you are welcome
to come and work on your own project, or even fix something.  You can
use our tools,
get help, give help, or just hang out with others playing with and
making their projects.

Where: Noisebridge 2169 Mission, San Francisco, 94110

 One and a half blocks South of the 16th St. Mission BART Station.

When: Monday evening 7pm - 10pm
 Just show up!  No reservation is needed.
 Most projects take about 1 to 2 hours.

Who: You! It is fun to make things in the friendly community of Noisebridge.

Cost: Instruction is Free!

 If you use any kits, reimbursement for kit price is requested.
 (this is $10 to $35, depending on kit)

All kits are designed for total beginners to complete successfully.
Kits available include:

 TV-B-Gone (turn off TVs in public places!)

 Brain Machine (Meditate, Hallucinate, and Trip Out!)

 Mignonette Game (build your own handheld game console!)

 Trippy RGB Waves (interac tive blinky lights!)

 LEDcube (animated 3D cube of LEDs!)

 MiniPOV (more cool blinky lights!)

 MintyBoost (charge your USB enabled gadgets!)

 microcontroller programmers (program all your AVR family chips!)

 Arduino clones (make just about anything!)

 Open Heart (animate fun patterns in the shape of a heart!)

 LoL Shield (Lots of LEDs for your Arduino!)

And more.

Hope to see you Monday evening!
