Oskitone for Education

For Christmas I made cards for my kid’s preschool teachers, which got me thinking about my first teachers (Mrs. Whitt, RIP) and all the great...

I assembled a poly555 from oskitone.com :D
It's an analog polyphonic square wave synthesizer. This means no code involved, it can produce multiple note at once and it make kinda harsh sound.
The case is 3D printed plus a piece of plexiglas and half a dozen nuts and bolts. The plexiglas expose the twenty 555 timer circuits and their led showing which ones are playing, What's not visible is the voltage regulator for the 9v battery and the amplifier for the speaker under the grid,
All kits and PCBs are back in stock, including the POLY555 and Scout PCBs w/ the annoying-to-source (ie, not jelly bean) components included
I got some stickers made but they’re too weird to sell on their own in the shop. DM me your address (or buy anything off the site) and I’ll send you some for freeeeeeee

Now available!: Higher Lower is a 3D-printed, screen-free, handheld electronic game about arbitrary musical intervals. Do the played tones go higher or lower? The more guesses you get right, the harder it gets!

The Higher Lower DIY Electronics Kit includes everything you need to make one of your own. (Well, I guess you bring the soldering iron and optional 3D printer.) It takes about 30min to solder and assemble.

Using my iPhone to do timelapses and I must've made a happy hand gesture, inadvertently triggering a ballon effect on one of the frames. Ha!
Hey soldering kit makers! Struggling with new coin cell regulations and have a pile of PCBs with coin cell battery holder patterns on them? I made a thing for ours that converts them to USB power, maybe it's handy for you. Ship this instead of a CR2032 holder and boom, your kit no longer contains or uses a coin cell, no compliance needed. It's designed for side-slide style holders (SMT or through-hole) and easy to solder.
The Oskitone Catalog Zine. Staple bound, 16 pages, printed poorly on my dinky office printer. DM me your address or buy anything from the store and I’ll send you a copy
