Build your own electronic dice with the Kitronik Dice Project Kit, a fun and educational soldering project that introduces learners to electronics, circuit assembly and microcontrollers. Once assembled, the kit generates a random dice number every time the push button is pressed, making it a practical demonstration of electronic design and programming in action.
The kit uses seven bright red LEDs arranged in a traditional dice pattern, controlled by a pre-programmed PIC microcontroller. The tactile push button is mounted directly onto the PCB, creating a compact standalone project that can be used as built or housed in a custom-designed enclosure.
Perfect for STEM education, electronics clubs and beginner makers, this project provides valuable hands-on experience while creating a fully functional electronic game.
The LED torch uses a white 5000mCd ultra bright LED. Power is supplied by an N size 12 volt battery, which is included in the kit. The torch comes complete with a slide on off switch.
MM10 low torque 3V DC motor, ideal for models and educational applications. Nominal voltage 3.0V with operating range 1.5 to 4.5V. The two flat sides enable easy mounting onto a panel or PCB. Rotation is counter-clockwise (as viewed from shaft end).
Build and play with your own electronic games using the Kitronik Game Project Kit. This engaging electronics kit combines learning and fun by allowing users to assemble a fully working game console featuring two classic games: a Memory Game and a Reaction Game.
Powered by a pre-programmed PIC microcontroller, the kit introduces learners to soldering, electronics assembly and circuit design while providing an enjoyable gaming experience once completed. The compact PCB design includes four LEDs and four push buttons, with an integrated battery holder and power switch mounted directly onto the board for a self-contained project.
The finished kit can be used as built or incorporated into a custom enclosure designed by the user, making it an excellent project for STEM learning, electronics clubs and budding engineers.
Games Included
Memory Game: This is our take on the classic ‘Simon Says’ game. You have to match the pattern shown by the 4 LEDs in the order shown by the kit before the timer runs out!
Reaction Game: This game tests how fast your reactions are! The kit lights up an LED where you have to press the corresponding button on the same corner as the LED. The game times out if you press the wrong corresponding button or don’t press the button in time.

Expertly created, Elements Professional Synthetic Oil Painting brushes are a popular alternative to natural hog hair brushes for oil painting. While natural hog bristles are known for their stiffness and ability to handle thick, heavy paints, synthetic hog hair brushes offer similar performance but are made from man-made materials, providing a more ethical and often more affordable option.
These synthetic brushes are generally more durable and resilient than their natural counterparts. They are less likely to shed bristles and can withstand the rigors of heavy paint, solvent, and cleaning. This durability makes them suitable for long-term use without significant degradation.

Since these brushes do not use animal-derived materials, they are a more ethical and cruelty-free alternative to natural hog bristles. Artists who are conscious about animal welfare may prefer synthetic options for this reason.
Round 6 : A round synthetic hog hair brush is great for detail work, fine lines, and precision, ideal for painting fine lines or intricate details in oil.
Filbert 12 : The rounded, flat shape of a filbert brush is great for blending and creating soft, curved strokes, making it versatile for oil painting techniques.
Flat 18: A flat brush is ideal for bold, wide strokes and can also be used for precise edge work and controlled application of thick paint.

Attractively designed, the Elements Nero Synthetic Squirrel Quill watercolour brushes are a popular choice for artists looking for the softness and flexibility of natural squirrel hair but with the durability and affordability of synthetic materials. These brushes are designed to mimic the qualities of squirrel hair, offering smooth and responsive performance without the ethical concerns or cost associated with animal-derived brushes. The synthetic hair is made in Japan and hand rolled using Chinese traditional craftsmanship.
The fine point allows for precise, detailed painting but they can also hold a substantial amount of water, making them suitable for larger washes and fluid strokes.
This carefully chosen set of 2 different sizes can be used by Artists for detailed line work, controlled washes, and soft blending effects. They are an excellent tool for artists seeking both quality and ethical alternatives to traditional brushes.
