My name is Riley. I am an 11 year-old electronics enthusiast. I spend my days hacking electronics and making things from the used parts. Sparkfun's April Fool's Day contest was a fun challenge because I also like pranks. Why didn't I combine these hobbies sooner?!
My fake vending machine was made from the components of an annoying greeting card, popsicle sticks, rubber bands, a clothespin, and a linear actuator from an old printer.
Hope you enjoy!
