Issue #195 - Pie
Hey there,
We had a great time celebrating Pi Day this week. Make sure to check out our Pi Day blog for an amazing video from Creative Mind Frame, plus a new Pi vs. Pie graphic for all your comparison needs.
We’ve also updated our YouTube channel with three new videos.
Why not spend the week working on some of the great projects below, including temperature stair lights, calculating Pi, and talking skulls?
Until next Friday.
Peace
Alex
