About
I build things, break things, and write down what I learn. I like systems that feel real — workshop builds, field experiments, and software when it helps.
Based in the UK. Usually covered in sawdust or tabs.

Builder. Experimenter. Problem solver.
I build practical things and odd things — sometimes both at once. This is my corner of the internet for projects, notes, and whatever I’m testing lately.

Now
Current focus: finishing the ride-on conversion and writing up a few completed builds.
Current project
One thing I’m actively building right now.
Fiat 500 Ride-On Conversion
Turning a kid’s ride-on into something far more ridiculous: upgraded controls, dash bits, and better drive feel.
Build In progress
Progress 85%
Selected projects
Completed builds + experiments. More write-ups coming.
Shopping Trolley Drift Cart
A motorised drift trolley build — silly, fast enough, and surprisingly stable once dialled in.
Experiment Completed
FM Emergency Broadcaster (≈7-mile range)
Built from a car FM transmitter and upgraded into a longer-range local broadcast experiment for emergency-style messaging.
Radio Completed
Flame Thrower Build
A finished build project — one of those ‘because I can’ experiments, documented with care and restraint.
Build Completed
Writing & ideas
Short notes, longer posts, and the occasional rant about glue.
