I recreated an Etch A Sketch (drawing toy) with Raspberry Pi Pico

Hi everyone!

For the last 2 months, I’ve been learning raspberry pi pico, electronics, soldering, CAD software, and more to remake a mechanical drawing toy I found in my drawer:) On the second image you can see the insides of it.

Hardware is really fun, and I enjoyed the process so much. Finally, I got everything working, and it just looks very cool in my opinion.

Code, models, wiring are all available on my github page

I'd love to hear your feedback and what you think about it!

Also, if you are interested, I made a whole video about the creation process, challenges and how it works.
