We've had some pretty dang cool badges over the years of the Open Hardware Summit existing! From PCBs to e-textiles to lego we've explored lots of ways to play with #badgelife and this year will be no different.

More progress on designing a soldering kit badge this year for my femme/queer electronics camp.

Compliments please, I'm very very tired and pushing super hard and could use them.

Sorting through my #badgelife...some will go in shadow boxes, some kept for gifting, and the remainder to be donated....fingers crossed I can add a #GrrCON electric badge but I'll see what the gods have in store...

An Event Badge Re-Imagined As A Cyberdeck

#FediOrnament see how the PCBs stack up to make a nice 15mm thicc ornament? and the USB port and power switch are up near, but not obstructed by, the loop to hang it from the tree? that way its easy to run off USB without a battery while still hiding the wire in the tree well! or keep the LIPO in and wear it like some #badgelife swag if you tryna r% fedi while going mobile
