Projects & Workbench

Exploring electronics, physical computing, and custom fabrication.

Physical Computing & IoT

Merging hardware and software through embedded systems and microcontrollers. My bench regularly sees action with various development boards for educational and personal builds.

  • Microcontrollers: Extensive work with Arduino and ESP platforms.
  • Single-Board Computers: Raspberry Pi integrations and network tools.
  • Sensors & Automation: Scenario-based Internet of Things (IoT) prototyping.

Amateur Radio Builds

Beyond off-the-shelf gear, I enjoy the hands-on engineering side of RF.

  • Antenna Fabrication: Experimenting with wire antennas and RF toroidal cores for custom baluns and ununs.
  • Go-Kit Construction: Designing field-ready, self-contained comms boxes with integrated power distribution.

Crafting & Fabrication

When I step away from the keyboard and the radio, I enjoy working with my hands on various tactile projects.

  • Luthiery: Building and applying custom finishes to electric guitar kits.
  • Chainmaille: Crafting intricate chainmaille art, jewelry, and armor.
  • Paracord: Braiding custom, durable paracord items.

Aviation

Taking to the skies from a different perspective.

  • UAV Piloting: Flying drones for aerial photography and personal hobby enjoyment.
