I made several improvements to the back cover, including adding standoffs to prevent interference with mounting hardware and adjusting the footprint and access port for better functionality. Despite some initial printing challenges, everything fit perfectly, and I'm delighted with the enhancements.
I inventoried the printed parts and found enough spares to assemble five taggers instead of the planned four. The taggers will use an identical configuration to fit onto a NERF rail, connecting to the trigger via a headphone jack, with the screen mounted at the top and the battery at the bottom.
I gathered the electrical components for the next round of tagger construction, including two resistor values, transistors, header sockets, screw terminals, and a microcontroller demo board. Since I planned to build five taggers, I focused on organizing the components logically and streamlining the assembly process.
I inserted matching components into four additional prototyping boards, adjusting the mounting blocks as needed for consistency. After securing and soldering the components, I utilized solid-core wire for the buck-boost voltage regulators to ensure stability during installation. Lastly, I created a list of components required to complete the taggers, including new screens and microcontrollers.
I updated the schematics by clarifying connections, unifying transistor blocks, and adding information on PCB hole designations. I added detail to the microcontroller block and drew screw terminals for improved accuracy and repeatability.
The Hebrew Hammer, a 2003 film created by Jewish writers and directors, is a satirical action movie filled with tropes and stereotypes that reflect their experiences. It features an over-the-top hero who stomps through challenges with violence, teamwork, and anti-anti-Semitic messaging. If you liked Six-String Samurai or Mel Brooks movies, it is worth watching.
