Project Log!

12 may 2026: First project involving python, feelin good!! This is just a little test article for me to stick all my inspo links in so I can find them. I've been looking at components and am hoping to start getting them later this month, so for now I'm just focusing on research on this project, as well as learning some introductory python bits.

About the project I want to make! So, as inspired by lots of people online, I want to build a little photobooth with a thermal printer, a raspberry pi zero, and some other components. I think after all the coding, the most difficult bit will be the actual build, since I've not done lots of proper, made-to-last stuff. I'll also be consulting mr optical engineer adum for his thoughts, which will be nice I think. This whole thing could blow up in my face a little, but I think it'll be fun, so whatever.

Anyways, here are the links!
