About one month ago, I bought this Qi Wireless Charger PCB from dx.com. At only US$7.99 and free shipping to Singapore, it was a steal.

I wanted to do so many things with this, from 3D-printing a stand for my Nexus 7 to embedding the PCB under a table (apparently someone else and Starbucks have already thought of this before me).

But as you might have guessed, I ended up procrastinating too busy to work on it, until a few days ago I happened to come across the little fella, lying desperately under piles of notes while I was tidying up my desk. Then I said to myself, “If I don’t start doing something about it now, probably I never will.”

Since I don’t have a 3D printer lying around, I just grabbed the nearby bag of LEGO parts (from which I was supposed to build the B-model of 8294 – Excavator but again I procrastinated was too busy) and after one hour I made myself a nice little simple dock.

And yes, it charges wirelessly.

So after some determination, I was able to defeat further procrastination and actually build something for myself. If only I could do that for my studying as well…
