Stuff you can buy from me

Tags: buy, cufflights, kits, lucid, povwatch, shopping, store, timefountain, watch
Over the time I've been inventing, I've been making some of my stuff available as kits for you copycats out there. This post is the sum collection of them and will be updated as future offerings arise.

Have a look around, and remember there's no obligation! :)

All prices are in US dollars. Shipping is flat rate $6.50 to anywhere in the world, if Paypal will accept your country (sorry, Colombia!).

NOTE: Assembled kits have a fairly long wait at the moment as I need to assemble them personally. You may be waiting up to 8 weeks for the more complicated items.



Lucid dreaming masks

These are available as a fully assembled mask, an unassembled kit, and a programmed PIC chip alone. Assembly instructions are here.

$60 - Buy now (Paypal)Fully assembled and tested (ready to go!) (takes 4 weeks to ship)

$30 - Buy now (Paypal)Kit (everything you need)

$10 - Buy now (Paypal)PIC chip alone (you provide everything else)

Jacket cuff lights

These are available only as kits, since the assembly and installation is quite involved and the kits don't include a jacket.

$20 - Buy now (Paypal)Kit (everything except a jacket)

Time fountains

The long-awaited Time Fountain is now available! The pre-sale is over, sorry if you missed it! Check out the assembly manual for assembly instructions and a parts list.

$200 - Buy now (Paypal)Assembled Time Fountain (fully tested) (ships in 8 weeks)

$100 - Buy now (Paypal)Time Fountain Kit (includes PIC chip)

$30 - Buy now (Paypal)Time Fountain programmed PIC (chip only)

I'm also looking for skilled electronics folks to assemble Time Fountains for the masses. Here's the deal - buy a kit from me for the kit price, assemble it, and send it back to me. I'll test it out, and if I can get it to work, I'll send you the full price of an assembled Time Fountain via Paypal. Contact me (timefountain_at_natetrue_dot_com) if you're interested.


Binary/POV wristwatches
With two time display options (Binary and wave-it-in-the-air POV display) and a super-bright flashlight mode, this watch is sure to turn some heads. Buy as a chip only, a kit to assemble yourself, a preassembled board, or a complete watch.

$189 - Buy now (Paypal)Assembled POV Watch (ready to wear!)

$89 - Buy now (Paypal)Assembled POV Watch board/battery/USB only (you make the enclosure)

I tried to buy the $75 Time Fountain Kit, and it tried to charge me $175. I still want the kit. Please?

Sorry, had the kit link at the wrong price. Fixed now!

Hopefully the first and last time I'll have to buy an "ASSFOUNTAIN-01" -- thanks, Nate!

Is the kit assemble-able by mere mortals as well? Lots of soldering? All the steps in your HOWTO? I might take a crack at it if the directions were very clear.

Posted by natetrue 52 weeks ago ( 11-May-2007 07:38:45 )

The directions (when they're published) will be very explicit, no leaps of judgment required. And yes, there will be much soldering. And a lot of other stuff. :)

Thanks for letting me know about the release for the masses :)
I'm going to buy one, but I have some questions about the "Time Fountain Kit regular" item.

Is everything included? (Some Fluorescein powder even?)
Is the PIC chip programmed?

It would be nice to have an items included list :)

P.s.: Unfortunately I'm moving back to Iceland this summer. Will you ship to Iceland? Would I just pay the extra shipping cost when the Time Fountain will be released? Would probably order the Lucid dreaming masks as well.
Sorry for all the questions :)

skuliaxe, everything will be included save for a few common assembly tools (soldering iron, solder, pliers, etc). I'll be including highlighters instead of Fluorescein powder because they work so much better. The PIC will come preprogrammed and everything, you won't need a programmer.

I'll publish the full parts list and assembly instructions (with full photo coverage) when the kits are finalized, which will be very soon (a week or so). I'm just waiting on a few parts to come in.

As stated at the top of this article, shipping is flat rate, no extra charge for foreign countries.

Nate,

Do you have the full parts list and instructions ready yet? This is the only thing from keeping me from pre-ordering one. Thanks!

Posted by natetrue 46 weeks ago ( 21-Jun-2007 11:33:00 )

I'm writing up the instructions right now. They'll be published later today, and the preorder will expire sometime tomorrow when the kits start shipping.
