This is a project I've been wanting to build for some time - it's a message board for your home or business which can be updated from anywhere! The Message Board uses E-Paper which is very low power and only uses power when it updates. Combining this with the Google Docs API and Google Developer Console, using a Raspberry Pi, it's possible to make a message board that polls a Google Sheet and updates when there's new data.

Huge thanks to my Patrons, without whom my standard of living would drastically decline. Like, inside out-Farm Foods bag decline. Plus a very special shoutout to Lulzbot, Inc who keep me in LulzBot 3D printers and support me via Patreon.

XROBOTS
Former toy designer, current YouTube maker and general robotics, electrical and mechanical engineer, I’m a fan of doing it yourself and innovation by trial and error. My channel is where I share some of my useful and not-so-useful inventions, designs and maker advice. Iron Man is my go-to cosplay, and 3D printing can solve most issues - broken bolts, missing parts, world hunger, you name it.
XRobots is the community around my content where you can get in touch, share tips and advice, and more build FAQs, schematics and designs are also available.
