Important news about HackSpace

We have some important news to share about HackSpace: Issue 81 was the last issue of HackSpace as a standalone magazine, and HackSpace has become part of The MagPi, the official Raspberry Pi magazine. Starting with issue 145, We’ll be adding pages to The MagPi to make room for the stories and tutorials you’ve come to expect from HackSpace.

Custom Robot

By Andrew Gregory. Posted

We’re all missing face-to-face events (though hopefully not for too much longer). In the meantime, a lot of the things that we would normally look forward to – such as Maker Faires, local hackspace events, and big Hackster conferences – have been forced to go virtual. One of these is Pi Wars.

The event may be virtual, but the robots are still very much real, as typified by this effort from Paul Fretwell. Paul has eschewed the many robot kits on the market in favour of designing his own 3D-printed body including many clever features, and 3D-printed mounting brackets for the motors he’s used. It’s fast, it’s four-wheel drive, and we can’t wait to see it in real life.
