Personal experiments, restorations, and hands-on curiosities outside of formal design work.
Built a closed-loop egg incubator using Arduino, a temperature sensor, humidity sensor and relay. 18 days of waiting. Two out of eight eggs hatched.
A NodeMCU-powered planter that monitors soil moisture, waters automatically on a schedule, and sends reminders — built as a classroom IoT project.

Assembling a Tevo Tarantula Pro from scratch — two hours of hardware puzzles, wiring, and calibration.
