Feathercoin colours IMO. Perhaps even including the pcb style wiring decals.

This is great. I’m thinking how cool would it be to make a cash machine that works the other way round.
Send your FTC and you get Cash!Considering the recent hassles with gox and the general inability for mere mortals to convert FTC to cash I think this machine would be a good partner for your invention.
Cash to FTC and FTC to cash. There’s a business there for someone!
It would certainly help your oxford blue landlord cash out in order to buy more barrels of beer or any other high street merchant for that matter.
I think there’s a need for this on the street, it’s one thing accepting feather coins but if you want to pay your supplier in FIAT it’s a different matter. A nice mod would be that the FIAT value is transferred to your account via BACS ( possibly by inserting a bank card?)
I’m sure you guys have thought of this already. -
On second thoughts
It’s one machine with the ability to do either! -
OK, It looks like the QR issue is solved, but I have a couple of errors in the code…
The logo file gets deleted after the 1st print comes off
I don’t get a log file written to the SD card
Any help guys?
-
You want to know what it looks like in raw format??
and printing…

Any way to mark the logo read only?
-
Changed the code to resolve the logo issue now, just working on the log file bit.
Might have a slight problem with what happenes when the SD card is empty of QR codes thou as the coin taker doesn’t have an enable pin. So might have to make up a small circuit to cut the power to the coin taker once the card is spent.
-
Just use a single channel relay, cheap as chips.
I can send one after the weekend when I’m home from Greece if that helps. -
I’ve got a couple here, but thanks for the offer :)
I’m not seeing anything in the code to drop pin3 to ground thou but I may be missing it.
I have the log file sorted now that I have added a statement to call it that was missing. Just need to look at the RTC as the date is rubbish!!
I also need to work out how to get the modified code onto Github as I have no idea about that, if nothing else comes of this I can say I have learnt a fair bit :D
-
I suspect that the RTC is the problem with the logfile, as it’s logging data just not what I was expecting from reading the code
This is the output
Feathercoin Transaction 1265845585,2165/165/165 165:165:85 Feathercoin Transaction 1265845585,2165/165/165 165:165:85 Feathercoin Transaction 1265845585,2165/165/165 165:165:85 -
This is so sweet guys… Truly epic… If we can have a working prototype to show the world during the 1 year anniversary, it could get a lot of attention.
-
@Calem I’m hoping for more than one by then :)
This should be good to go before the next meet up just need to find some one to do the sticker printing as I only have access to powered coaters so its going to look very boring
UM
EDIT *** 500 posts :) ***
-
I can cut stickers if you like ?
Just sent me an illustrator file and size/color of the vinyl and its a cut :-)
-
@prensel, thanks man… I’ve just Skyped iawgoM about that artwork but he’s not on-line yet…
Can you do vinyl stickers with a spot gloss finish? something similar to this? as I think the circuit tracks would look very cool in gloss :) then all I need to do is think of a colour for the can, but that maybe limited to whats in the spray gun at the time of taking it in due to the time constants of getting it ready for the end of the month
UM
-
RTC problem is now fixed, I get a log file that makes sense…
Next thing is shutting down the taker when it runs out of codes, I don’t mind that it keeps swallowing £1 coins but the punters might get a little feed up of it. I’ve just been to the cupboard where the parts are kept to get a relay and there is none in there, I can’t remember using any… will have to pop out again later and get a couple
-
Current casing design is this…
Vertical slot is for coin taker, horizontal slot is for printer, hole on the end is to take a standard PC PSU…
Thoughts? This is ready to go off to the laser cutters, and due to time constraints to get it ready for the OB at the end of the month, I need to push the button tomorrow lunch at the latest
UM
-
If you think your ready I say go for it!
-
UM, you need a tip jar!
-
I had one, but took it out of my sig whilst the PCUK is going on as I didn’t want to cause confusion
Oh and I pushed the button on the laser cutting this morning :) so hopefully they will be here next week :D
-
Ahh, makes sense.
