We're back with another project! This one is inspired by the beginning of Spring 2021, and features a couple of more advanced techniques. We've got all of the usual links to the materials and a free DXF download. The key to the whole build is the transparent polypropylene, it's amazing what applying some heat can do!

Christmas is drawing closer and the excitement in the office is growing rapidly. We want to share some of our excitement with you with a few simple...

We might not be able to party for Halloween 2020 like it's 1985 but we can at least dress like it is. Check out Emma's cool laser cut, light up, perspex cyber visor. Emma is our resident graphic designer and she's done her level best to ensure your Halloween is as good as it can be. It's lit!

Free additional resources for the Kitronik :MOVE Motor for micro:bit. Work through each of the 6 tutorials to gain a full understanding of all of the features of :MOVE Motor. It's fun, it's hands-on, and you'll also learn a lot of interesting things along the way!

Level up your robotics game now!

In this resource, we show you how we turned a Kitronik ZIP Tile, and a BBC micro:bit into a portable retro gamer. The ZIP tile is perfect for some ...

There has been a disturbance in the micro:bit community, have you felt it? Star Wars day is back and has probably led a lot of you to make something inspired by the galaxy far far away.

In this resource, we show you how to make a cool Scandinavian style lampshade using our sustainable 3mm laser cork. One of the great things about making things out of our laser cork is that it's flexible, this means all the parts stay together with a friction fit. So, no glue, no screws, just cork!

Quickly turn your ZIP Tile for microbit into a stylish digital Halloween Pumpkin with this simple laser cut design. Use our designs to make one straight away or use them as a starting point for your own design!

Maria Hadjiantoniou from Loughborough University joined us in July on her internship to learn more about Electro-Fashion and E-Textiles. Having made these Electro-Fashion LED curtains, she is here to tell you a little bit about this E-Textiles project.

Quickly turn your ZIP Tile for microbit into a stylish digital name badge with this simple laser cut design. Follow the step by step guide and find out how you can make one too!

Elsa Novak from Redhill Sixth Form joined us last week for work experience. Having completed this Fairground Project, she is here to tell you what her inspiration was for the project, how you can create your own version and her ideas to take this project even further.

The cover of the Kitronik's Summer 2019 flyer shows this stylish simple clock design. This is an excellent product to combine a number of natural and man-made materials in an easy and satisfying project. Free DXF files included.
