For another project I urgently needed a relatively large digit to display a time duration. This is the reason for this small \"subproject\". Because with the 3D printed frame described here and a few WS2812 LEDs you can easily build up a seven-segment-digit (or even more) and use it to create displays for displaying numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over time, I've noticed that this type of digits are suitable for all sorts of projects. For example, I have already used them for the construction of a clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe you also have a new use for it. I'm curious what you think of so. Let me then but happy to leave a comment there. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to build such a number is described in the following article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety instructions <\/span><\/h2>\r\n

I know the following notes are always kind of annoying and seem unnecessary. Unfortunately, many people who knew "better" have lost eyes, fingers or other things due to carelessness or injured themselves. Data loss is almost negligible in comparison, but even these can be really annoying. Therefore, please take five minutes to read the safety instructions. Because even the coolest project is not worth injury or other trouble.<\/span>
