Tinkering with Micro:bit
Description
This will be a collection of resources for a micro:bit compatible system for tinkering activities including circuit blocks, scribbling machines, linkages, computational tinkering, and more. One of the motivations for this is to introduce Micro:bit and associated activities as a bridge to more advanced microcontrollers, like Arduino without having to purchase expensive LEGO robotics/power function bricks and motors. Collection 1: Mini DC Motor Housing The idea is to make an inexpensive, Micro:bit friendly motor option for use with some Tinker Studio activity remixes I'm working on (scribbling machines, circuit blocks, & LEGO tinkering). This case is held together with 4 LEGO Blue Long Pins with Friction (6558), leaving the holes in front and back free for attaching Technic components. Collection 2: LEGO Compatible Pegboard Included here is a sample pegboard sized for LEGO Technic beams. Here is the link to the original Instructables from the Tinkering Studio where this whole idea came from: https://www.exploratorium.edu/tinkering/blog/2016/05/16/lego-tinkering-pegboard-instructable- Coming soon: an Instructables on this project with assembly and project examples.
