It’s time for another Cool Tool review. This is a greeting card sound module. There are a bunch of dirt cheap ones out there, but this fancy one cost me $9 on Amazon. It’s a straightforward way to add sound to your project. And by picking one up using the link in the description you’re helping to support my videos and the Cool Tools blog.

This week on Maker Update, multi-channel audio on the cheap, the future of Fritzing, GPIO Zero, a laser cut kaleidescope, and digging, climbing, cooking, or shredding your way to a high score.

This week on Maker Update, cardboard trees for cats, an LED pixel clock, a pocket disco, Molecules for your neck, a light river for your kitchen, a solar heart, and an 8-player NES.
