Attended #SMRRF this weekend and as usual had my robots with me, my old wireless router was looking a bit naff so made a new enclosure. A tribute to the amazing datenklos from @emf and other European maker camps, using the filament given to SMRRF exhibitors last year.

May I present, the Portable Network Convenience!

It's a 4G modem/router running OpenWRT, it has a 5 port POE switch that powers everything in it including an 8 port gigabit switch and external access point.

It's also got space for another Pi or Jetson board if I need extra compute too.

I'll still be able to use it at EMF for hosting services too, just without the AP, handy for running the new Hacky Racers telemetry system!

In Manchester for #SMRRF #3dprinting festival, who's about?
Back home fro #SMRRF. Fantastic weekend

Good day at #SMRRF, talking 3D printing and making with people. The day flew past.

For the record, I managed to score zero on the dartboard. I am very impressed with myself for that.

At the end of #SMRRF day 1 I'm shattered. Questions answered and decided on my next printer.
Not been on a train for ages. Heading to Manchester for the #SMRRF
