Maker Jo highVoltage and the Magic Hat #Making #Magic
Young Maker Jo highVoltage has sent a link to her latest project: a Magic Hat made using 3D printing (video below).
Jo recently signed up on the MakerShare website to share her projects. She posts:
I’m in 4th grade and like 3D printing and electronics. I use Fusion 360, MakeCode, Arduino and CircuitPython.
My Maker Moment: I’ve always enjoyed making things.
The whole Hogan family has a website, HoganMade, devoted to sharing their projects – well done! And, of course, there is a whole section devoted to Jo highVoltage project videos and a recent bonus hack.
A big thanks to the Hogan family for sharing their work with the community. Adafruit is committed to promoting the community aspect of Making and highlighting people and families who make up the community.
(Ed: please keep trying to come on the Adafruit Show & Tell, we’d like to see you and the rest of the Adafruit community there.)

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
