I got an arduino kit a year ago for free on a raffle, it's an Arduino UNO with a bunch of components, it's been sitting inside my wardrobe for a year because i don't know what the fuck to do with it.
Any sugestions on something cool i can make? I have a 3D printer as well.
Doesn't need to have a practical purpose, it can be just for fun...

You can make an arcade cabinet with one of those and run a bunch of emulators on it.

sell it before people realize it is obsolete (bought by a big brand unlikely to find it commercially viable)
or save for the next generations of troons to gawk over in a 'retro unboxing' 3d video

I went through a spell a few years ago when I was getting into flight simulator. You could make some control panels with them. I didn't have a 3d printer though so I made all the faceplates by hand.
The throttle quadrant in the middle has slider pots with their levers sticking into a drilled hole in the dowels. It uses a joystick library so the game recognizes it as a controller. The other two panels require fsuipc and mobiflight to interface with the game. Really fun way to learn about this stuff. I've been wanting to rebuild them I've just been too busy with other things lately.
