Tinkering
This document contains stories and pictures of the electronics, AI, and chemistry things that I make.

Home Lab Panorama
This is my amateur lab!

My Workbench
This is the electronics workbench that is in our living room.

Fume Hood
Handmade fume hood that features a counterweighted sash, controllable fan, and side viewing pane.

Fixing Levitron
I took apart a novelty toy that levitated a magnetic puck, because it was not working. As I discovered, it was not working because it didn't get enough power.

Cinnamon Raisin bread
I can also bake!

Clear Drive
I've always wanted a clear flash drive, so I made one

Musical Tesla Coil
The kit was a Christmas present, and I really love it!

My junk (out of many)
I love collecting electronic junk. Here's some transformers, magnetrons, and fans.

Safety Box
For fon, I occasionally work directly with wall power at formidable amperages. I use a secondary breaker just in case.

Crystals
I grow copper sulfate crystals for use in my jewelry

Polished Rocks
I polish rocks for fun

Welder iteration 1
I made my own stick welder out of two microwave oven transformers. This was the first iteration of the body design.

Welder iteration 2
Improved stick welder housing

Baby Tesla
This was a small, handmade tesla coil that uses the slayer exciter circuit

Intellistove
This is a picture of the whole intellistove setup. It will turn off when the pot boils dry, and is securely controllable via text message.

Custom PCB
For the Intellistove project, I designed some printed circuit boards.

Necklace Progression
I make copper sulfate necklaces! Here are four generations out of the roughly six I've gone through so far.

Zombie Humidifier
This is a humidifier that I hacked together from a novelty mister and the old body of a humidifier.

Electric scooter
I made a custom driver circuit for my friend's electric scooter after the old one broke.
