The Kanban-Boardinator

Inators

Ah, my flat-tailed foe. Pull up a chair. No, not that one, that one has a spring that goes straight into — you know what, just stand. I want to tell you about a productivity method that has completely changed my approach to world domination logistics. It is called Kanban, and before you say anything […]

The Laundry-Done-Inator

Inators

Ah, at last! BEHOLD — the Laundry-Done-Inator! My greatest achievement since the Chicken-Replace-Inator, and arguably more useful, though I stand by the chickens. You see, it all started on a dark and stormy Tuesday. I had left my lab coat in the wash — a critical error — and completely forgot about it for THREE […]

Steampunk Gun Conversion

Inators

As any Evil Scientist will tell you, Inators do not pay for themselves. The parts alone for the Chicken Waterinator nearly wiped out the quarterly budget, and we do not even want to discuss what the Laundry-Done-Inator cost in sensor calibration alone. Clearly, a supplemental revenue stream was required. The solution? A booth at the […]

The Perfboard-Arduino-inator lives!

Inators

It worked on the first try. I want you to really sit with that for a moment. In the history of D.E.I., things working on the first try is not exactly a recurring theme. And yet here we are. After working out the kinks with the Borduinoinator — including a hard-won lesson about the Arduino […]

The Breadboard-Arduino-inator Lives!

Inators

Good news, citizens of the Tri-State Area: the crystals have arrived. Yes, I know that sounds like the opening line of a prophecy. In a way, it is. These particular crystals are quartz oscillators for the standalone Arduino circuit at the heart of my Breadboard-Arduino-inator — and with them in hand, I was finally able […]

The Mobile Workshopinator

Inators

The Transistor Hackerspace is, objectively speaking, a wonderful place. Knowledgeable people, good equipment, the kind of environment where you can ask “does anyone know why my voltage regulator is getting hot” and actually get a useful answer instead of a concerned look. I have been enjoying it tremendously. There is, however, one problem: it is […]

The Chicken Waterinator

Inators

I want to tell you about the lowest point of my Evil career. It was not the time the self-destruct went off early. It was not the incident with the magnetic-inator and all the silverware. It was not even the weekend my nemesis foiled three separate plans before noon on a Saturday. No. The lowest […]

The Cable Organizatorinator

Inators

Ah, my semi-aquatic arch-rival! Pull up a chair — actually, do not pull up a chair, I only have the one and I need it — but DO stop what you are doing, because I have just solved one of the greatest problems facing Evil Scientists today. Cables. Specifically: the problem of owning seventeen of […]
