Then get out Make: Volume 10 (Note: I mistakenly called it volume 11 in the podcast, but it’s Volume 10) and look up the article on 555 timers by Charles Platt. We’re going to make a timer that you can use when playing chess to know when your partner’s turn is up! I’ll also put this article in the pdf that goes along with this video. – Subscribe Link
