More Builds & Experiments

Not every project begins with a big goal. Sometimes I make something to solve a small problem, test an idea, or simply see if I can build it. These smaller projects are where I experiment, learn, and keep creating.

Transforming Robot

 

I designed this transforming robot from the ground up, modeling every part myself. It can change between robot and vehicle forms, with fully movable joints that make the transformation possible. The project taught me how closely mechanical movement, structure, and 3D modeling have to work together.

Code-Controlled Blinking Eyes

 

I designed this 3D-printed eye mechanism to blink through code. By combining movable parts, electronics, and programming, I could control the opening and closing of the eyes and explore how code can bring physical models to life.

Code-Controlled Dancing Robot

I programmed this robot to “dance” by coordinating multiple motors and joints through code. Adjusting the timing and movement of each part helped me explore how programming, mechanics, and balance work together to create motion.

Custom 3D-Printed Mouse

I designed and 3D-printed a custom mouse shell around real electronic components. Several versions were needed to get the fit, button movement, and internal spacing right, teaching me how important precision and repeated testing are in functional design.

Coffee Machine Base

I designed and 3D-printed this custom base to improve the fit and stability of our coffee machine. It was a simple project, but it showed me how 3D printing can solve small everyday problems in a practical way.

Multi-Laptop Charging Stand

I designed this 3D-printed stand to hold several laptops upright while charging. By adjusting the spacing to fit the devices, I created a simple way to save space and keep the charging area organized.

Filament Guide Extension

I noticed that the filament could sometimes catch on nearby parts of the printer, so I designed this extension to guide it along a safer path. It is a simple fix, but it helps prevent tangles and makes the printing process more reliable.

Assistive Bottle Opener

I designed and 3D-printed this bottle opener to make twisting caps easier for people with limited grip strength or hand mobility. The larger handle provides better leverage and a more secure grip.

Wheelchair Phone Holder

I designed and 3D-printed this phone holder to attach securely to a wheelchair, making it easier to keep a phone accessible and stable during everyday use.

Designed to Be Used

I like making things that do more than sit on a shelf. Whether I am solving a small everyday problem, improving a machine, or experimenting with movement and code, I enjoy turning an idea into something that actually works. Each project gives me another reason to observe, test, adjust, and keep building.
