In this episode Shahriar demos the world's fastest oscilloscope! The Agilent DSA-X 96204Q offers 160GS/s of conversion rate with a bandwidth of 62GHz on two ...
Here's another one I absolutely recommend - worth watching the whole 1 hour video. Mainly because of his excellent knowledge on what he's talking about, and how he goes about explaining all of it.
I designed and 3D printed a Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor, and used an Arduino to control the motor. All parts of the motor, excluding magnets...
When I was a kid, I always thought building a useful motor would be the most difficult thing. Looks like you can now 3D print a motor
Some people (not me) can successfully solder incredibly tiny Quad Flad No-lead (QFN) parts such as the one in the photo below by hand using a soldering iron or a hot air gun (the photo below is from a commercial board, not hand soldered). For wireless devices and modern sensors, surface mount device (SMD) packages as small as QFN have become the normal, default package.
Building a reflow oven. We have not build this one. This is something that we definitely want to build sometime in the future.

This was a quick project to build a data logger, useful around the lab or elsewhere. So quick it can be built in a couple of hours, and with dozens of uses. The facility to log events or values over time is extremely important for many projects - it is a useful Swiss army knife to have around when needed.
Build a simple data logger, using Tiva Launchpad. We did not build it ourself but this one definitely looks interesting.
