Raspberry Pi Book of Making 2027: Projects for Makers and Hackers (Paperback or Softback)

The future is here, and it's digital.

Technology isn't just something you buy — you can build it yourself! With a bit of know-how you can 3D print moulds to make personalised soap bars, control a robot arm, add sensors and reactive LEDs to an old quilt, or anything else you put your mind to. Book of Making 2027 distils the essence of our favourite maker projects. Whether you want to build an underwater rover, a wordsearch clock, or a digital jukebox, there’s something for you here.

We've rounded up a few of our favourite makes previously published in Raspberry Pi Official Magazine, which should keep you entertained for an afternoon, a weekend, or longer.

• Build a simple sensor robot from scratch
• Experiment with long-range communication platform Meshtastic
• Turn a toy skeleton into a jumping, dancing robot
• Design, prototype and manufacture a custom PCB

Tech is all around us, in the electronics that make devices work: the sensors, the motors, and the logic that controls them. It’s in the 3D printed plastic parts, and the CNC-machined wood and aluminium. If you want to build something in the modern age, you need to be thinking digitally and physically. Fire up your 3D printer, soldering iron, or Raspberry Pi, and start making!

Raspberry Pi Official Magazine is written for the community. It is packed with Pi-themed projects, computing and electronics tutorials, how-to guides, and the latest community news and events.
