I just want to point out that customs from Coojo are less expensive than anything offered by QBC or any of the big names. My first cap was $40 and my second was $65 with opal and a marble
@SilentJ I don't know what your setup is but I also want to give a shoutout to CoojoGlass on IG if you want something custom. Quick turnaround and fantastic pricing.
Thank you, but I would say that @JCat and @jojo monkey and @Hippie Dickie have arguably contributed more effort than myself, even if it wasn't initially intended for this specific project. Like I've said in the past, Linux is my specialty and much of this project will require assistance from...
I'm going to step away from that conversation; looks like @JCat and @jojo monkey know what they're talking about. Thank you for sharing your research and insight with us; it's very valuable to the success of this project.
Regarding my silly wiring issue, i got some 14 gauge wire to replace the...
@scalescliffs Just giving you an update, I never called but I will this afternoon.
Re: My wiring issue, I'm fairly certain the issue was human error. I'm rewiring tonight and/or tomorrow so I'll update once confirmed.
Edit: I got off the phone with Brandon a little bit ago. He only picked up...
@Elemen0py Believe me, there are various parts of this that I have minimal to zero understanding of, which is why I started the thread in hopes of having other contributors. If you can't tell from my postings thus far, circuitry is fairly new to me haha I'm probably just as "nooby" as you...
@jojo monkey Now I feel stupid; I'll pick some up. Regarding the SSR, for now I'm trying to get as close as possible to the HexNail design for the sake of people who currently own the device. Making a better design is further down the road for me, but anyone else is welcome to pick it up. In...
@Hippie Dickie I've been having trouble reading gpio via SSH and getting any sort of terminal output in minicom. I have a USB/TTY UART board coming in on Wednesday, and I'm hoping I'll be able to get that going in Arduino IDE. That would make things much easier. Once I get there I'll see if I...
Yea I'm definitely buying one these regardless of the other project @scalescliffs. For those willing to spend the money, this is undoubtedly the best thing available.
If anyone else has taken apart their HN-02 at all, please take a look at my wiring diagram and confirm whether or not I've made a mistake. I'm having some issues with control on my DIY

Nice @jojo monkey definitely on the todo list
Has anyone with an HN-02 disassembled their unit? I just finished wiring my DIY and it works but no PID control. Coil stays red hot. If anyone can confirm the wiring in my diagram, that would be amazing. I think I may have mixed up some wires on the...
@jojo monkey Great research and excellent write up, thanks! I'll definitely try out Gateway when I'm done with my current image and I'll post results here. Been a busy past ~10 days but I'm finally putting together the unit this weekend.
@jojo monkey now THAT is something we should look at, thanks for the link!
Here's the official library for the TC chip I'm using

Edit: Also, it isn't necessarily about what I want; remote control and remote interfaces are definitely on the list of...
@jojo monkey I appreciate the effort but you're going down the wrong path currently. Once an API is created for communicating with the hardware, controlling the hardware from other devices is trivial. With such an API, controlling anything with bluetooth directly would just create additional...
@PoopMachine When it gets to that stage you'll be #1. I don't plan on offering anything like that until we have it working off of their server; it wouldn't be right to put additional load on their server for unofficial products.
There is more to the story and a bit of it was shared with me, but...
@Hollabackatcha Assuming it's a similar environment to HN-02 (Ubuntu-based Armbian, but the Debian version should work the same), you can replace any passwords in /etc/shadow as long as you hash the password against the same variables/algorithms. Or you could boot into single user mode and...
@PoopMachine the holes on all of the parts (other than the ones with terminal tabs and solder cups) are 0.1" holes for the pads, so it's definitely one of the easier solder jobs. Just need to make sure you have a narrow tip on the iron so you are only heating the pin/hole you want the rosin/flux...
@Roth @VAPEHUNTER I have no idea how small the nanos are; I would say 1.5-2mm diameter.
The steamrollers are about the same radius as my 6mm beads, and it's very similar to 3 6mm beads next to each other, but with a bit more mass filling in the gaps. I like having the roller in the center with...
