Netrunner Card Boxes

I’ve been wanting to upgrade my Netrunner card storage for a while. Now that I have access to a laser cutter/engraver, I finally took the plunge and designed these boxes. I think they turned out fantastic!

Installing Ruby/Jekyll on MacOS 13 on M1

Some notes on updating ruby-on-rails on my M1 Mac Air running OSX 13:

Sci-Fi Mobile

I recently took training for the 3D printers at my makerspace. As a first project I found these neat “kit-cards” on Thingiverse, a great resource for 3D print ideas. These reminded me of the model airplane kits I used to build as a kid and the hours of fun I had there. After printing them out and assembling them with kiddo, I thought they would look good in a mobile. So I put together a quick laser-cut arc template and assembled them into a mobile.

Daily E-Ink Calendar

This project was inspired by this magic ink calendar. I had a need for an easy display to a shared calendar, but only needed the day’s events and not a full month display.

YAY Tracker

So I’ve been mostly enjoying pandemic work-from-home. The one thing I don’t like though is the easy access to snacks. So to try to reduce my snacking consumption, I thought I would try to replace the instant gratification of a snack with something else.

Arrow Fletching

Found a great little customizable arrow fletching jig on thingiverse.

House Temperature Logging

I was interested in temperature, humidity monitoring around the house to see if there were any trends, or if the basement was getting too humid. In particular, looking for a low-effort way to get data into a dashboard, I was eager to try out the AdafruitIO framework. They limit you to two managed whippersnapper devices (but you can have more using your IO key), and 10 feeds (this is the real limiter, with each stream of data being one feed).

Netrunner Laser-Cut Identities (Smoke & Outfit)

After the success of the last Netrunner laser-cut ID’s I thought I would do another set for East Coast Nationals 2023. This was right before Smoke (one of my favorite runners) was going to rotate, and The Outfit was doing super strong, so I had an easy time deciding what to do.
