So she says, pointing to my #PiClock hanging on the wall, "I need one of those, so I can see the snow and rain approaching." Ok sure I thought, but I had no spare monitors to throw at it. A few days later, my buddy Chris said, "I have 2 27" monitors, if you make me a PiClock for one, I'll give you a montior." "Deal!", was my reply.
The background was inspired by her love of hunting and archery.
So of course I had to take it apart for installing a good 5v power supply, tapping off of the 14v adapter that plugs into it. I didn't see a good way to mount it at first (where'd that VESA standard go?), so I mounted a piece of acrylic stood off the back of the case by about an inch. The Pi, and the rest are mounted to that. Not a bad deal. I had an extra #RaspberryPi model B hanging around, and donated that to the project, as well as about 2 meters of RGB #NeoPixels from #Adafruit.
