"I create stuff."
Welcome to my blog where I mostly post things I've done over the years. Hopefully this will be a somewhat living archive of my adventures as a amateur maker and creator of mostly useless stuff.
After my failure with Lou:1c – my first keyboard and after the new PCBs arrived I started with a case to go with the PCB. Design inspiration I started designing several versions, and even halfway built some before I finally saw an image in a Discord channel. The image had no attribution but there was […]
After I received my new PCBs I wanted to get a feel for them and start using them as fast as possible. So I grabbed a 22mm thick sheet of MDF from the stack and started cutting in to it. For the tray to have a bit more strength I soaked it was watered down […]
After the failure and lessons learned with the design and production of Lou1:d I didn’t give up. And started working on Lou1:e. I decided to skip the extra column of switches to the left, my idea was that I could keep the wirings and add solder points for an external 5 row 1 column PCB […]
A couple of years ago I saw that a store sold Kobo eInk readers relativly cheap and a quick google showed that it was possible to root them and do what you wanted, so I bought one, and rooted it. Unfortunately there were no ready made scripts or programs to display weather information on the […]
While designing my own PCB I created some prototypes. To test my designs and the capabilities of JLCPCB. I wanted to test the newly created footprints, colours and silk-screen prints among other things. So here are a small gallery of those prototypes.
After trying hand-wiring i decided that I wanted to try to make a custom PCB. This would be the first that was a bit more advanced, with a MCU and USB. I also wanted a PCB for the vintage SMK switches I just bought from Ebay. I used EasyEDA to design it since i would […]
Somewhere late 2019 me and my friend discovered that the Makerspace here in Jönköping had laser cutter. Someone had lended it to the space for a indefinite time and we started to get in in order right away. Our goal was to cut parts for keyboards, we had both started looking into custom built mechanical […]
For many years I’ve enjoyed creating timelapses. The earliest i still have is from Dreamhack 2002. Since then there I’ve takes a lot more timelapses, mainly sunsets and stars. The 2002 Dreamhack one used my parents old VHS camcorder as a video device connected to an old dual pentium 200. After that I’ve used my […]
During the first months of the Pandemic I bought a small tabletop CNC machine from Switzerland (read: China). It has a working area of 60x40cm and work very well for wood and other softer materials. I’ve added some things to it, a vacuum-shoe for example. I’ve used it to make several prototypes of keyboard cases […]
