Behold: my very own retro 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 node.

Icing on the cake: it can even monitor transactions!



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.



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).
