I made some PCB designs for the magnetic flux testing machine:github.com/the-relentless-epee/Magnetic-Flux-Testing-Machine first time using KiCAD, suggestions for improvements are very welcome!

I made a quick-release phone clamp for tripod:github.com/the-relentless-epee/Collection-of-Random-Designs/tree/main/QD%20tripod%20phone%20mount it uses 1/4 inch thread inserts to attach to tripods, and a offset cam mechanism to clamp the phone in place.

more code for my magnetic flux testing machine: github.com/the-relentless-epee/Magnetic-Flux-Testing-Machine/tree/main uses python to plot a graph from the data recorded from SD card. planning to implement some low pass filtering since there's some slight random noise

I made these improved latches for a rugged box: github.com/the-relentless-epee/Collection-of-Random-Designs/tree/main/rugged%20box%20latch they use over-the-center mechanism to create a tight lock that doesn't come loose by itself.

I wrote a python code to separate data from a 9-axis IMU. It stores data separate from the labels so they could be used more easily. github.com/the-relentless-epee/Fencing-Action-Detector

I designed a coil that uses 0.2mm copper wires. Each coil covers 45 degrees, which would align perfectly with the magnetic rotor with 8 magnets. The coil adapter mounts the coils to the 2020 extrusion. Everything designed in Fusion 360. GitHub: github.com/the-relentless-epee/Magnetic-Flux-Testing-Machine

I designed circuit boards for my magnetic flux testing machine: • the power distribution board converts 12v from a USB-PB trigger board to 3.3v for MCU, 9v for DC motor, and 12v to stepper motor driver. • the coil adapter board takes in the 2 wires from the coils, converts to DC with a full bridge rectifier, and passes to a potentiometer for adjusting the output voltage. (needs to be under 3.3v for the Pi Pico ADC) GitHub:github.com/the-relentless-epee/Magnetic-Flux-Testing-Machine

I made this magnetic rotor disc for a DC motor, it's part of a machine to test magnetic flux. The motor spins the magnet quickly which generates an electric field in nearby wires. github.com/the-relentless-epee/Magnetic-Flux-Testing-Machine/commit/43bf49699a14f981c804033533de3bd773d7492f
