The MintDuino Game Pack provides a fun and informative way to learn about the world of Arduino compatible microcontrollers. Even if you’ve never programmed or dabbled in electronics, the MintDuino Game Pack will give you a firm foundation on which to build!
The Maker Shed, in conjunction with Adafruit Industries, is proud to present you with the latest in the Mintronics line of products, the Menta. It’s the perfect pocket Arduino!
It’s been such a treat to look through so many heartfelt (yes, sometimes brash) comments on posts from the past year.

Looking for a last minute stocking stuffer? The Supercap Racer, designed by George Albercook, is the latest addition to the Maker Shed’s popular Mintronics line of DIY kits. Simply solder the kit together, add 4 AAA batteries, and you’re ready to race!
New in the Maker Shed are two new, low cost, wireless products from the good folks at Wicked Device. The MintyMote is an Arduino remote control that fits in an Altoids Smalls gum tin (not included.) The Wireless Sensor Node / Receiver Shield Bundle includes everything you need to create a simple, low cost sensor network with a range of about 150ft (but has tested farther.)
The awesome Craig Smith is at it again. He continues to explore the venerable crystal radio, now focusing on miniaturization. And that, of course, means on thing: Mint Tin Crystal Set! Craig writes… I’ve made a half dozen battery-free crystal radios in about eight weeks. But I always wanted to try to stuff one inside […]
Chris’s transmitter uses only 17 parts and has a range of 100 feet indoors. The goal of this project is for me personally to learn a little more about fm transmitters and fm bug making (may the HAM radio gods bless me in this pursuit). The ideal outcome of this project is a very small […]
