Oh so many projects. I've pretty much always got something (or multiple somethings) in various stages of development. This page is meant to be a sort of archive/reference of them, although given that I'm just now starting it in May 2009 my past projects will obviously be less well-documented. As the page grows I imagine I'll need to come up with some sort of organizational system; we'll see what happens. Perhaps subpages for each project or category of projects.
For an unorganized list of posts in my LJ regarding my projects, go here (beware, though, I tend to cover 3 or 4 topics per post, so in posts with the "projects" tag the actual project might be mentioned in only one paragraph out of four or five).
Current projects:
- A sleeptracking alarm clock (detects ~90-minute sleep cycles and adjusts the wakeup time so that the alarm goes off when you're in a lighter sleep - see aXbo for inspiration)
- Learning Python
- A hydroponic garden
"Someday" projects:
- Everything in my favorites list on Instructables. Especially the word clock and air hockey table.
- A multitouch computer touchscreen - Community wiki
- A clock like this, except more. One with minutes and seconds too.
- Embossed business/calling cards - Instructable
- I desperately want one of these CNC machines. Man, the things I could create with one of those...
- I also want a RepRap 3D printer. How cool is that, being able to print physical objects?
Past projects:
- A hammock stand - Instructable
- A monome (actually the open-source derivative, the Arduinome)
- Designing and coding (although my programming skills are limited) this website, which is currently in version 3.1
- Building computers from parts (twice, plus upgrades and modifications)
- Serious automotive repair (I spent a 4-day weekend dissassembling most of the interior and part of the engine of my car in order to get at and replace the air conditioning evaporator (pictures here); routine maintenance is also (perhaps obviously) something I do)
- Construction of a sci-fi/etc. convention costume (construction gallery 1 and gallery 2)
