This is where I document my personal projects. I’m mostly posting about metalworking, electronics, laser cutting, 3D printing and modelling. I started to take photos and document my projects around 2019, but I’ve also posted about…
Chess – A classic in a miniature format
Last month I posted about my miniature Qawale project. Both me and my son love the size and the fact that it is actually easier to play than the original. I started to wonder if it…
