Trinket Contest Update #7

[Diablo]

This is the last update for the Trinket Contest. We hope to announce the winners at the end of the week (there’s a lot to dig through!). If you didn’t see yours on one of the updates, either we didn’t get it, it wasn’t a complete entry, or you missed the deadline.
After the break you can see that final eight entries.
[Aaron's] showing some love with his Jack-o-Lantern this year.

This badge is an example [Carlos] used in his brass etching guide.

[Christopher Mitchel] sent in a bitmap on his graphic calculator which isn’t surprising since we’ve seen his work on this hardware several times before. Learn about the hacks performed on the calculator pictured from his recent post.
Yo Dawg… [Andrew] put our logo on a Trinket in order to win a Trinket. He fessed up to having used TheGimp rather than actually etching the case of the uC.

This one is from an un-named submitter. He says he doesn’t have nice tools like everyone else but wanted to do something cool. He hand-etched the logo in a computer mouse using a 200mW laser. We think that’s pretty awesome!

This one’s actually a hack. [Michael] has been meaning to turn his RepRapPro Huxley into a pen plotter. He didn’t have time to do it properly so he just zip-tied a pen to the extruder and printed a slice of the logo.
This is a motivational mirror at this unknown submitter’s work.

[Sebastian] had the embossing pen in his CNC router for making his wedding invitations so he made a special run for the contest.
