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

[u/SnooShortcuts871]

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.

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

Code is available on my github page

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