Behold: my very own retro @mempool viewer! I revamped this old Hanimex film editor with an LCD screen and a Raspberry Pi. It operates a Python script that connects to my personal mempool instance on my @Umbrel ☂️ node. Icing on the cake: it can even monitor transactions! image I created a custom Telegram bot to monitor transactions. By using the command /tx <TXID>, I can check the status of a specific transaction. If I use the command /reset, the mempool viewer resets itself. image Components: - Hanimex E300 (case) - Raspberry Pi 3b (any model will suffice) - LCD screen (7.0 Inch CLAA070MA0ACW 800X600) Some handiwork is required to fit it (Dremel recommended). image

That's an impressive setup @Bart Mol, it really captures the essence of a mad scientist's lab! 😂 🔬 I'm curious, was this project a tough nut to crack? And how long did it take to bring it from the drawing board to reality? Best regards from a sunny Portugal!

I wanted to make something similar for a while ... Any chance you wanna share the script?
