Make: television Season One has come and gone. But in case you missed it, we'll be rolling out the ten episodes of our premiere season again, starting of course with Episode 1 which features the amazing bicycle wizardry of Cyclecide, and the VCR Cat Feeder in the Maker Workshop:

In the Maker Workshop segment John Park turns an old VCR into automated cat feeder, and William Gurstelle demonstrates the "Nibbler" - an unusual tool for shaping metal. Maker Channel contributors showcase their talents through scream machines, laser harps, cupcake cars and a sly gadget that turns off those annoying TV screens in public places.
Get the m4v of Episode One, or subscribe in iTunes. Watch the individual segments of Episode One and find instructions for the VCR Cat Feeder after the jump.
All episodes, individual segments, and PDF instructions of our Maker Workshop projects from Make: television Season One can always be found at our Episode Guide. You can also watch Make: television videos on YouTube, Blip, Vimeo, or download our torrents at LegalTorrents.

Ever filmed video on a rollercoaster?

Not pictured above: a Make: television cameraman (or John Park for that matter). Why would we ever expect any camerman in his/her right mind to risk life, limb, or most importantly, expensive video recording equipment for the sake of some jumpy footage of a roller coaster in action?
In this week's Maker Workshop segment of Make: television, John Park uses an Arduino microcontroller and a hacked Wii controller to make a Personal Flight Recorder... which is, of course, perfect for measuring the stomach-churning G forces of roller coasters like the one pictured above.
Fortunately, this slightly less frightening roller coaster also expels a healthy amount of G forces. And thanks to the steady hands of our camerman Mike Phillips (seated on the coaster conveniently right under the big yellow arrow), we have a very watchable, non-stomach-churning Maker Workshop segment to prove it.


Visit makezine.tv this Saturday, 2/28 to see Episode 9 featuring CCRMA's Computer Making Music and the Personal Flight Recorder.
