Automated camera arm (is it really a fail if I learned something?)
updated
Until it didn't.
Today, I'm checking what's wrong and fixing it.

These ones are 12 VAC and have a photocell as well as a few timing modes.
Let's take a look inside and sse if there is anything worth salvaging.

This isn't the only way to do it.
It's probably not the best way to do it.
But it's how I did it.
They call it "Pi Terminal-7” 1024*600 IPS HMI CM4 Panel All-In-One Module Raspberry Pi CM4 Industrial Computer With Rich Interfaces, 4G/LoRa/GPS/WiFi/BLE"
But how I'd describe it is a 7 inch touch screen with integrated Raspberry Pi Compute module (CM4) and a lot of hardware ports broken out.
Their description leans on it's ability as a Node Red terminal, and while it does come with Node Red server pre-installed, it can be used for many other touch screen control panel type applications.

In the video I mentioned I wasn't getting a commission for this (and at the time that was true), but after I recorded the video, they offered me a commission link, so if you want to buy one and you don't mind me earning a small commission, here's that link: pileofstuff.ca/r/l080g
Otherwise you can also choose to buy through the first link above.

There's not a huge number of components, so I would call it relatively beginner friendly - but I still managed to make a rookie mistake.

This is my overhead camera mover arm thing.
First video: youtu.be/R5MEBZYgvk8
second attempt: youtu.be/-pzL2prp8e8
By the end of this, I have a working and quite usable way to slowly and automatically move a small camera above my work bench. Hopefully this will help keep the videos more visually interesting, while reducing my distractions and allowing me to remain focused on the actual task on my work bench.
Here's the website for Silent Control Boards, if you are interested in learning more about the stepper motor controller I used: silentcontrolboards.com
Thanks Ken for sending me this one to explore and experiment with.

But it's how I did it.
I've been getting several parts assortments recently that all come in similar small divider boxes, and in the interest of not having the pile of them fall all over the floor, I'm making a storage rack for them.
The design was easy using the free tools at makercase.com
And then made a few modifications to the file using inkscape.org (free, open source and available for most operating systems)
And then I cut it all out using my Creality Falcon 2 laser

This isn't the only way to do it.
It's probably not the best way to do it.
But it's how I did it.
Today's kit is the "Burglar Alarm with Time Delay NE555 DIY soldering kit" from Universal Solder
universal-solder.ca/burglar-alarm-with-time-delay-diy-kit
It's a relatively straightforward cet of circuits that are a decent demonstration of a few circuit principles, and builds up into a nice little finished product.
For a better understanding of the oscillator part, here is the book that several generations of hobbyists learned from:

It's probably not the best way to do it.
But it's how I did it.
So I grabbed an assortment of components from my accumulation and threw this one together.
Obviously this would be more ideal if I designed it properly and used optimum parts, but it still works using whatever I had lying around.
The circuit I built is based on this article: codrey.com/electronic-circuits/simple-electronic-dc-load

This isn't the only way to do it.
It's probably not the best way to do it.
But it's how I did it.
It was a video streaming box that would let you stream any video source in your house to another location on the internet . It was intended to let you watch your hometown TV while you were travelling.
I say "was" because it relied on a cloud server that the manufacturer shut down, bricking the boxes that people had bought.
Anyway, I found this one on the curb, so let's tear it down and see what's inside.
There was a community project to resurrect these, but it needed some security credentials to be pulled from the Sling server, which is no longer online...

It can control several types of addressable LEDs (including the common WS2812/2812 types) as well as acting as a 5 channel PWM dimmer for standard LEDs and stips.
