Something for the Weekend - Part 237 - Pot luck!

Community Expert ,
Mar 28, 2025 Mar 28, 2025

Thanks to all who took part in our last 'Pi' challenge.

 

This week I was digging around in a components drawer and came across this small potentiometer, which is used to vary voltage, or current, in an electrical circuit. However, I know that your creative imagination can put it to a much wider use. What can you make with it?

 

The “rules”:

  • Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry.
  • Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc.
  • Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”.
  • There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!
  • The starter image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only.

 

To download the starter image, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

 

Have fun!

 

Dave

Back to Alston, JR. The pot fits the front of the loco well, and I see by the platform that it is definitely going places.

SFTW.jpgsweets for my sweets, sugar for Adobe. In case it went unnoticed, I am hungry, I am on a diet, I crave for macarons. I make things cheesy cute.  But hey, I made you smile.

Who doesn't like sweet things? I do like the stylised pot on the label, very nicely done.

That's a wonderfully Ridley Scott kind of take: electronic, dark, a little menacing, utterly indifferent to humans.

I don't know why but I can't get the 'upvote' button to work on this post. That aside it's a clever idea and extending the prongs makes it work well.
Dave
Edit : I came back to this later and the upvote now works.
