The Lab

Works in progress.

Where unfinished ideas are welcome. Half-built machines, blinking prototypes, and rabbit holes I climbed into on purpose. None of it is finished — that’s the point.

Retro computers

Ongoing

Bringing old machines back online, one flaky capacitor at a time.

Vintage electronics

Ongoing

Test gear, tubes, and the occasional mystery board that hums when it shouldn't.

LED installations

Building

Addressable strips, custom controllers, and lights that refuse to sit still.

Linux & self-hosting

Ongoing

Running my own corner of the internet — from the BBS to this very site.

Photography techniques

Ongoing

Darkroom chemistry and alt-process printing. Not every experiment survives.

Pinball

Parked

Keeping a real machine alive, and studying what makes the great ones feel great.

3D printing

Ongoing

Enclosures, brackets, and parts that don't exist until you need one at 2 a.m.

Hardware odds & ends

Ongoing

Microcontrollers and small boards for problems most people happily ignore.
