Baguette Wobbler Bot
I made a simple wobbling robot inside a loaf of bread. It’s based on Randy Sarafan’s wobbler bot design.
This and more bread bots will be exhibited at NYC Resistor’s Interactive Show Saturday 6/16, come check it out!

Tumor Louver Hat for Simone Giertz 💩🤖
Created in collaboration with Leslie Birch! The golf-ball sized “tumor” is ejected from the derby hat with a 3D printed scissor snake driven by a micro servo motor and trinket microcontroller.
Leather Wallet
A simple leather wallet is the first thing I ever made from leather. Sadly the original was lost but that gave me the opportunity to make it again, better, and film it!
3D Printed Glowing Flower
Create a fun light-up flower using 3D printing and Tinkercad! Optionally add some needle felting to diffuse the light from the LED at the center of the flower. The special Glow circuit assembly in Tinkercad makes it easy to put an LED and battery circuit into your 3D prints.
Glowing LED Gummy Candy
Knife Sharpening Angle Coach
in collaboration with Alex French Guy Cooking! Full tutorial on Instructables.
GH5 Foot Pedal Shutter Remote
A DIY foot pedal shutter remote is an absolute must-have in my tabletop photography arsenal. The GH5 remote has a few resistors in it, which makes it a bit more involved to DIY than, a Canon shutter remote, for example. I looked it up, and sure enough, the switch contact is held high at about 41.1K ohms, and the shutter triggers when the switch brings it down to about 2.2K ohms. Resistor values add up when put in series, and some experimentation shows you can successfully deviate a bit on the resistor values (try what you have that’s close).
