Snowblower Tachometer

Welcome to the snowblower-rev-counter web site

In this project we want to design and build a tachometer (revolution counter) for a very old snowblower.

The goal of this project is not to build something useful, it is rather to let my 16 year old son acquire some knowledge in the following fields:

• Basic analog and digital electronic design
• Arduino programming
• 3D design and printing
• Planning a project and being involved in the different steps from the beginning to the end

Sub-projects

This project is divided in the following sub-projects:

• High level project design
• Getting rotation information from the engine
• Power supply
• Counting and displaying RPM
• Storing engine information in the cloud
• Design and printing of a case

Each sub-project will have a page where the progress will be logged in chronological order.
