3D PrintingBeginner
A 3D printed screw-top jar with a retro drawing on its wall, designed in Jar Studio without CAD, printed in one colour on a Kobra X and painted by hand with black paint and a thin brush.
ElectronicsIntermediate
An old ATX PC power supply turned into a bench power supply with 12 V, 5 V and 3.3 V outputs, a 0–24 V SK120 variable output and a 3D-printed case designed in PSU Enclosure Studio.
ElectronicsBeginner
A cardboard soldering fume extractor with two 80 mm 12 V PC fans, an activated carbon filter and a toggle switch.
ElectronicsIntermediate
A working 230 V desk fan built around a salvaged microwave fan motor: a double-wall cardboard case glued with hot glue and wood glue, a FreeCAD-designed 3D-printed mount with heat-set inserts, an IEC inlet with fuse and rocker switch, a stainless steel bar grille on the back and a handmade wire fan guard on the front.
ElectronicsAdvanced
A recycled printer power supply board rebuilt into a dual-output 24 V / 5 V bench power supply: two digital volt/amp meters, banana binding posts, a salvaged cross-flow fan, ventilation grilles and a glowing filament LED, all in a hand-built cardboard and wood case.
Wood + MetalBeginner
A laser-cut plywood grand piano kit with a hand-crank music box movement inside: engraved panels, tiny keys, legs, pedals and a matching bench. Bought at TEDi for about €3 and built in an hour.
ElectronicsBeginner
A homemade soldering third hand: four bendable steel-wire arms sleeved in clear tubing, bolted to a metal base plate, with spring clips that hold anything from an Arduino Uno to a large power-supply board.
ElectronicsIntermediate
A rechargeable Edison-style lamp whose frame is soldered from bare copper wire: an LED filament on a tall copper arm, a 16340 cell, a TP4056 USB-C charger and a dimmer knob with a built-in switch.
ElectronicsBeginner
A mini music Tesla coil kit soldered from scratch: two transistors, a 350-turn secondary coil and a hand-wound primary that light a neon bulb and a fluorescent tube wirelessly.
