Build your next
Franken-project.
A few parts. A strange idea. Something that comes alive.
Welcome to our little corner of the internet for curious experiments, useful builds, and electronics with personality.
Currently on the workbench
A few ideas we’re itching to bring to life. These tutorials are still on the drawing board; tested parts lists and step-by-step instructions will follow.
01 / USB controls
A shortcut pad that works your way
Turn a few buttons into everyday keyboard shortcuts. We’ll cover wiring, button handling, and making a small controller for your desk.
Planned tutorial · USB microcontroller
02 / Wireless sensing
Know if the garage door is open
Build a wireless status light with a magnetic sensor. The design will show open, closed, or unknown when the connection drops. Monitoring only—no opener control.
Planned tutorial · Sensors and radio
03 / Home lab
Give your home server a dashboard
Put useful system information on a small touchscreen. We’ll explore a readable dashboard, automatic startup, and clear indicators when a server is offline.
Planned tutorial · Linux and a touchscreen
Every creature starts with a few parts.
We’re reviewing the shop’s boards, adapters, component kits, and displays to connect them with useful projects. Product details, images, and availability are being checked.
The shop is open for browsing. Payments are paused while we refresh the catalog.
A little curiosity. A few components. Something that comes alive.
