  1. Thanks! Didn’t have a chance to add the EL wire this year, sadly.

    And I do know the ESD one isn’t on straight. Don’t attach badges at 1am :s

  2. Definitely one of makers that made a strong impression on me at Detroit this year – lookin’ sharp indeed! I dug that he put a Raspberry Pi in his Project Vending Machine 2.0: https://twitter.com/SurrealityLabs/status/227555243347566592

  3. Ok, so when is Adafruit going to stock and sell quality lab coats? This is THE BEST way i’ve seen to show off the badges… and I’d rather add one or two to my next Adafruit order than spend $30 shipping from another specialty vendor (shipping to hawaii is expensive)

  4. Drew, thanks 🙂 Writeup should be coming soon.

    MauiJerry, if you’ve got a local university with a medical school or even just a chemistry department, try the bookstore there – I picked up mine locally at the University of Toronto for about $15.
