...and it's better than yours
I glued some WS2812B strip to a top hat and slopped some components on one of those perma-proto boards that Adafruit keeps giving me. It's pretty great. Proper blog entry coming soon.
Once upon a time this was Yet Another Infosec/SysAdmin Blog, but it has since turned in to a dumping ground for personal projects of all sizes. I think I like it better that way.
Rainbow Splash (solder all the things!!)
Earlier this year (2015), Erin sent me a link to Water Light Graffiti, an amazing project by Antonin Fourneau. When I commented on how simple and do-able it was, Erin encouraged me to apply for an art grant from Transformus. Tl;dr grant granted, project executed, see video at the ...
3D Printed Boat Medallion
This one was commissioned by my father for his sailing buddy John Kretschmer. We collaborated on the design and I built it in Tinkercad. The boat is an extruded trace of Kretschmer's boat Quetzal. The text is also an extruded SVG. I tried to add a few ornamental touches ...
3D Printed Bluetooth Illuminati Pyramid
With the departure of a roommate came the departure of the Bluetooth receiver. As I poked around eBay for a cheap and aesthetically appealing replacement, I began to dig up all-in-one receiver circuit boards. Search the 'bay for something like "bluetooth audio receiver board" if interested. Look closely as they ...
Remote Controlled Light-Up Spirit Hood
Erin and I promised a complete stranger that we would make them an amazing spirit hood. One year of forgetting and procrastinating later, we actually got around to it. This hardly belongs on my blog, as Erin did all the design, cutting, sewing. All I did was cut a strip ...
Tinkercad!!
i looove Tinkercad. It's free, web-based, and has lots of silly words and bright colors. It's also a bit different from other CAD applications - rather than define points of a line, lines of a plane, and planes of an object, you add and subtract simple shapes to create ...

Erin found this skull model on Thingiverse and thought it would make cool kandi beads. She was right ☺. They are pretty detailled for their size - just over 27 mm long. We used the 0.07 mm resolution of the Cube 3.
These were sanded with 320 grit paper. The black ...
3D Printed Guitar Knob
This is a standard Stratocaster-style guitar knob wrapped with the logo of the music store where I worked for roughly ever. The wrapped lettering was really convoluted to make in Tinkercad - I imported an SVG of the store's logo and extruded it, then to get individual letters I made ...
