3D Hangouts – Multi-color Suncatchers, Lithophanes and Heart Fidget

Author: Adafruit Industries February 12, 2026 Duration: 1:02:46
This week @adafruit we’re making multi-color lamps featuring stained glass effects and diffused panels with geometric shapes inspired by impossible objects. For the shop talk segment, we’re taking a look at the Make My Lithophane from MakerWorld to generate CMYK multi-color panels. This week’s time lapse features a mechanical fidget in the shape of a heart.

Tune into Adafruit Industries for a direct line to the workbench. This isn't a polished lecture series; it's the sound of making things happen, coming straight from the company's factory floor in New York City. You'll hear the real-world process of bringing do-it-yourself electronics to life, with all its experimentation and discovery. Each episode is a deep dive into practical, open-source projects that demystify technology and empower you to build your own. The conversations and demonstrations focus on turning concepts into tangible creations you can actually make at home, stripping away the intimidation factor of hardware and coding. Hosted by the team at Adafruit Industries, this educational podcast serves as an audio companion to their extensive video library, offering context, stories, and insights behind the builds. It's for anyone with a curiosity about how their gadgets work and a desire to roll up their sleeves and learn by doing. Expect a friendly, inclusive, and hands-on approach to electronics education that feels more like a collaborative workshop than a formal class.
