Everything 😅
I'm still exploring the space. I can imagine I'll find a couple of useful things around the household, regarding home automation (mainly Homematic IP right now), musical instruments (bass guitar / guitar) or repairing electronics. Or anything that leads to some cool or fun stuff for my kids (4 and 6 years old).
Besides that, feel free to chat with me about Terry Pratchett, politics, computer games, management, parenting... really about anything but soccer or beer.
projects
- A laser-cut of my daughter's name for the door of her new room.
- Steps:
- Use PowerPoint to create samples of my daughter's name in different fonts.
- Have multiple rounds of voting on her favorite representations of her name to find her favorite one. Of course, she picked the most fancy-looking and curly font (see screenshot on right).
- Further options: Painted or sprayed or given a finish in some other way. I'll probably use PowerPoint to create some samples of her name in different fonts and let her choose the one she likes. Then turn that into shapes and possibly modify them a little to allow for laser cutting. Then export as SVG.
- Steps:
- Several contraptions to put multiple prints of photos on a concrete wall without drilling holes for each and every one of them.
- Maybe several picture frames as well.
- Our family name as a sign on the outside wall next to our front door. There are already holes there from the previous owner which I could use to attach it to the insulation.
- more to come 🤓
