Thank you! I hope you'll have a lot of fun building and also the cats while playing of course. If you like you can send me footage of the cats playing for a future video
That's very cool! Maybe for the next major release, switch to an ESP32 or something else with Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi, and you could optionally eliminate the display and keypad completely, and program it from either a custom BT app or a self-hosted webpage.
That's definitely an option! Although I like that you don't depend on an app. I already have a few ESP32 variants here. A Raspberry Pi with camera and image recognition would be cool to Tage footage of the cat playing for example.
Loved seeing the walkthrough of this design process. Awesome video and great follow through. I’d say I am also slightly more programming oriented.. without a friend to help, the hardware side can be a struggle. Lots of bad youtube videos about sensors/libraries to sift through. Ha.
Thanks! It's rare on TH-cam for people to actually watch the whole video. Yes, software is way easier for me. I made a timer for my laser cutter with an Arduino, there's a commercial product out of discreet components and I couldn't wrap my head around how it works. In the end it was like 10 lines of code...
"back in the day" in 2018 I bought it from Amazon Germany from a vendor called "Drucker Rhino" (Printer Rhino). It is actually orange and they just called it "Rhino PLA". It's a bit translucent even but they don't seem to sell that anymore. I'd guess it was just some relabeled Chinese filament.
Thanks! Yes, it was a real bummer. It's already a boatload of work to create something like this as a single person. This world is made for big capital and politicians only talk to those people while expecting to be elected by the small guy.
@@SmallBatchFactory Yea. That definitely is the way of it. I don't actually need one as I don't have a cat, but I know plenty of people that do, and this could be an interesting gift, so I just bought it.

You have so very lucky cats! Magnificent.
Thank you!
Well done Sir. I just bought your kit and will make these for many friends who have cats, ordering some boards now via your affiliate link!

I’ll add this to my to make list, thanks for sharing, my 4 cats will be forever grateful 😊
Thank you for watching! Make sure to send me some footage of them having fun
Super! I really want one for our cats!
I hope someday I can produce them for everyone lacking the tools to DIY
This is rad. I don't have a cat anymore but hopefully some friends who do want one so I'll have an excuse to make one.
Thanks! I like the way you think ;-)
Awesome!!

Love this project!
Immediately ordered a kit and started soldering today.
Thanks! I saw your mail, thanks for that as well. I'll update the manual and get back to you soon.
Superb👏👏👏🤘🤘🤘
Do i like cats? No,
do i like game boy? Yes,
do i like your videos? Yes.
Ok, 2 to 1, the video is approved for consumption!! 😂
🤩 you could build one and flash the Arduino with a Tetris game

What's that yellow filament called? It's giving wall-E and I love it.

Now I know why my cat howls at night - she wants me to build a Gatuino!🐱
Definitely! I can't even count how often they go wild with it at 3 am. Luckily the living room is far enough from our bedroom
Can we license this to sell?
We can surely work something out. Send me a mail so we can discuss details, the address is on the channel page.
Well done. It is a shame that regulation can make life so bloody difficult sometimes.

@chris993361 thanks for your support Chris! I really think it makes a good gift. In fact I'll be gifting one this weekend too.
