Re: MY first Minty Pi... pretty cool project!

Man, you sound like an awesome dad! I wouldn't (and still don't) trust my father with tools. Thank you for sharing your builds and your story. I really look forward to seeing the rest of the builds completed and maybe some other projects. Thanks... we don’t trust dad with tools like this either (th...

MY first Minty Pi... pretty cool project!

A HUGE thank you to everyone in the forums that shared their process and pictures, and of course Helder and Wermy! <hugs!> SO my son (10) found a video of the minty pi last fall, and I thought it was maybe something I could do to show him how a project comes together, the trouble-shooting, and parts...

Re: Can't get IP Address to show

After multiple reformats and re-imaging on four microSD cards, and a router reboot and firmware update, I finally got one of the cards to show the IP address!

Re: White screen

I had two white screens, but everything else checked out with the hdmi cable on a monitor. Guessed either the screens were both? bad or there was something else. I’ve worked through these forums for two weeks or more now. Finally had a chance to get new sd cards and the new screens arrived. Once I g...

Re: New members, introduce yourself!

I'm a medical lab scientist :geek: (Kentucky) who in a previous life (90's :? ) did electronics calibrations in the Navy. My 10yo son found the mintypi videos, which looked intriguing, and could be a great introduction to electronics for the young'un. I found a couple kits just up on the forums for ...

Re: [POLL] - Signed mintyPi Giveaway

I donated twice...my 10yr old son found all this 'minty' business (intriguing indeed!) and now I am exhuming my old soldering and electronics from the Navy 30 years ago! A great bonding experience and he will have tools to use for life as we get our mintyPi sets (found 2) ready to assemble. These fo...

Re: Minty Pi kit

I am very interested in at least one of the kits you have available...maybe both. I'm guessing it is the 2.4inch screen. How to contact and purchase?
Thanks!
