Chatting Across the Airwaves with Ham Radio

Ham radio is my ticket to connecting with folks around the globe, no internet is required! Whether I am tweaking my rig, chasing distant signals, or just Picture 5340, Picturerag chewing with new friends, there is something magical about the crackle of the airwaves. Expect posts about my latest contacts, antenna experiments, and tips for anyone looking to get their license and join the fun.

Bringing Ideas to Life with 3D Printing and Design

There is nothing like turning a sketch into a real, tangible object with 3D printing. From designing custom parts to printing quirky gadgets for the kids, I love the endless possibilities of this tech. I’ll be sharing my design workflows, favorite filaments, and the occasional print fail (because learning is half the adventure!). Whether you I re a seasoned maker or just curious, there's something here for you.

Tinkering with Raspberry Pi and Arduino

Give me a Raspberry Pi or an Arduino, and 1 1 m a kid in a candy store. These little boards are perfect for everything from home automation to quirky robotics projects. I'm always cooking up something new, whether it's a Pi—powered media server or an Arduino-controlled LED display. Look out for project tutorials, code snippets, and ideas to spark your own creations.
