Someone asked for the whole chemistry prize coloring book instead of three separate books... so here you go (although, sizewise, the three small ones are easier to handle).
Perfect present for that nerdy chemist in you :D

More than 10 years ago, I designed my first course, Sensors and Devices, in which I teach Arduino and 3D printing to life science and biotech students.
This year is the last year of this course.
That was a fantastic run, and I will see how this will transform into a new course next year.

ChatGPT is getting worse at coding as well -_-
Or @officialarduino.bsky.social is now 12-bit on all PWM pins and didn't tell me anything???

Sooooo, apparently a natural history museum shop in New York….

Good luck :D

Last drawing for the 2025 Nobel prize in #chemsky done. And last book of the series submitted. Next week it should be available online :)

Well, now, don't you tell me to smile
You stick around, I'll make it worth your while

If you’re at the university in #wageningen, you’re 5 minutes away from this :)

And also the third coloring book is ready. Now just waiting for the last Nobel to draw :) #chemsky

Apparently it’s possible to make “non-screen printed” electrodes using a CO2 laser. And guess who has a laser cutter? :)

In the last part, we explain the hardware and software you can use to hack those printers (which are a lot). G-code is unbelievably simple and powerful to use. Or you can just use python :) 4/n

Alternatively, you can add components such as a microscope, sample holder, or pipette, and use the printer's three axes to move them in a 3D space. 3/n

You can change the normal filament extruder motor to have new functionalities controlled by the same motor. For example, bioprinting or food printing, as well as more complex applications like electrospinning. 2/n

Our 6-hands review/perspective: "Hacking 3D printers as laboratory robots" is now on ChemRxiv.
In there, we show how many robots you can make by simply modifying a 3D printer. #chemsky 1/n
