Altoids Can Morse Code Oscillator: Go beep yourself

altoids can morse code oscillator

Here’s a pretty cool little DIY idea from some guy on the Hacked Gadgets forum. For whatever reason, he has made a Morse Code Oscillator out of an Altoids can. It’s usefulness is questionable and it’s appearance is interesting, to put it nicely. The maker of the Oscillator says there is still problems he’s working out, such as an over heating issue, but he hopes to clear it up by changing some components with different materials. All in all, the Altoid Oscillator is Dangerously useless (couldn’t help ourselves, but to make an Altoids joke). Other then the fact that the main component is a container for a popular mint, it looks decently LoFi enough to pull off the DIY chic. — Andrew Dobrow
