I've created my first Most Useless Machine!!!


I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Needed to add the latch on because it was a little cramped inside there and the wires kept pushing up the switch side. I also unexpectedly had to re-wire the servo motor, and I haven't soldered anything for the better part of a decade, so I was a little surprised it worked. The mahogany aniline dye with satin clear coat really made the Dollar Store wooden box look nice as well. Here it is in action (if you haven't seen one before, a Most Useless Machine does nothing other than turn itself off):
