## Summary

Hackaday editors Mike Szczys and Elliot Williams review a week of hardware hacks, including a hand-cranked MIDI barrel piano using reflective sensors, a field-ready solder splice that uses a striker to melt internal solder, and a true 4K projector built from a repurposed smartphone screen. They also discuss a security vulnerability in browser clipboard handling that allows data injection, and a batteryless e-paper display powered by NFC energy harvesting. The episode covers various maker projects, from Wi-Fi scanning games to chaotic oscillators, highlighting the intersection of mechanical ingenuity and modern electronics.
