## Summary

Hackaday editors Mike Szczys and Elliot Williams discuss a variety of hardware hacks, including using the Android app PHONK to create local network interfaces for sensors and MQTT, and a KiCad trick by Vadim Panov to generate 3D models of off-the-shelf modules for enclosure design. They also cover the 'Time Bandit' clock, which uses mechanical slot machine spinners and TTL logic for timekeeping, and 3D-printed Shoji lamps featuring traditional Japanese joinery. The episode concludes with a review of a $15 solder-it-yourself calculator kit and an analysis of the Golden Gate Bridge's whistling handrails.
