A Steampunk style tea maker

By Marco Ventimiglia on September 14, 2021

In this project we will see how a machine was built that takes out your tea bag when the previously set time expires. The Steampunk-style structure was built with 4mm plywood cut out using a laser engraver.

As for the electronics, there is an Arduino Nano that controls a servo motor after the set time has elapsed via two capacitive touch buttons.
