PCB Milling was on my TODO list. So I thought I'll give the cheapest CNC mill a try that isn't made from card board. You would be surprised how far I got within two days of messing around with that. The fun alone was worth every penny of this purchase. Enjoy!

![How to make a Temperature, Pressure, Altitude Logger [Esp8266, WiFi, Arduino]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cwWRHZlu_T0/mqdefault.jpg "How to make a Temperature, Pressure, Altitude Logger [Esp8266, WiFi, Arduino]
This tutorial shows how to make a basic logger using WiFi and Adafruit MQTT. It is based on the cheap WeMos (Esp8266) micro controller with an air pressure/temperature and an OLED shield. It is programmed with an simple Arduino sketch and put in a 3D-printed case. I also explain how the altitude is calculated from airpresure. This logger should be doable for beginners, since not much soldering is needed. Enjoy watching!

This video shows a short test of the ANet ET4+ 3D Printer. It provides some cool features that allow continuing after power off and changing the filament mid-print. I tested the filament change to print a functional lamp case for a simple 16x16 pixel RGB LED matrix. The lamp is driven by the ESP8266 and WLED. It can be controlled over WiFi and used for several IoT purposes.

I tested the plan to utilize hourly ETEX power market prices to minimize my power costs. As power storage I tested the Oukitel ABEARL P5000 Power Station. The 120V MPPT solar inverter turned out to be the MVP.
