Fiat 126p 3D Model.

The Fiat 126 (Type 126) is a four passenger, rear-engined city car that was introduced by Fiat in October 1972 at the Turin Auto Show[1] as a replacement for the Fiat 500. The majority of 126s were produced in Bielsko-BiałaPoland, as the Polski Fiat 126p, where production continued until 2000. In many markets Fiat stopped sales of the 126 in 1993 in favour of their new front-engined Cinquecento. Total production reached almost 4.7 million units.

In Poland the car became a cultural icon and earned the nickname Maluch, meaning “The Little One” or “Toddler”.[3][4] It eventually became an official model name in 1997 when Maluch started appearing on the rear of the car.

This is a 3d printable model of the Fiat 126 car which is scaled down and modified to be a toy. Can be built as a cable controlled car or even a wireless r/c car depending on your ability. Read on for more pictures and the download link for the STL files.

Dummy Security Camera.

I’ve searched the net for a dummy security camera to place in front of my apartment, didn’t be able to find a good & free one. So designed my own.

The design

The camera lens inside is actually a wide angle LED lens which is available on the market. Even without it the cam will look very real.

There are 4 holes for 3mm leds that will imitate IR lighting leds inside the cameras. There is empty space inside so if you like you can place a circuit to flash them, or anyhting else. Even a real camera can be fitted in, making my design not a dummy but a real security cam. Ebay is full of small cameras, many of them wireless that canfit inside.

Bike computer with graphics screen

I’ve designed a complete new hardware & software for the bicycle comp that I’ve published some months ago. This one has a 128X64 monochrome graphics screen instead of the 16×2 character display of the former one.

this has got real time clock as well as the temperature sensor like the old one. But all data can either be shown fully digital or two different analog display modes.

Mp3 player holder for bikes

I’d published a product  for mounting mp3 players to bikes some months ago. Recently I’ve resized it, converted its locking mechanism to a double lock for added strength and printed one, by using an UP printer. I’ve assembled it to my folding bike with the mp3 player that i’ve bought from the market for just 14$. The design turned out to be nice, performed its duty well, holding the mp3 player in place at the same time directing its sounds towards the rider. Though the speakers of the player were at the sides, the sound was being distributed to the sides and music was a bit difficult to hear without redirection.

SteamPunk Clock.

The creation of this article is a kitsch product that looks and pretends to be like a steam engine.

But within the body, there is microprocessor power and a graphics LCD screen that can display various clock faces.

It can generate a number of  sound effects suitable for the current clock graphic displayed on the LCD.

The body is suitable to be produced at a 3D printer.
