Project Catalog

A catalog of large DIY builds — projects I've done and ones I know about — spanning 3D printing, CNC, robotics, and home automation.

3D Printers

Voron

Family of high-performance open-source CoreXY printers (2.4, Trident, 0, Switchwire) known for speed and build quality.

RepRap

The original self-replicating open-source 3D printer project that spawned the entire desktop 3D printing movement.

Prusa (MK4 / MK3S+)

Widely-cloned open-hardware i3-style printers, with the MMU3 add-on for multi-material printing.

RatRig V-Core

Open CoreXY kit printers (V-Core 3 / VZBot lineage) popular for large, fast, high-quality builds.

Annex Engineering

Community of open printer designs (K3, Tridex, BeltPrinter) pushing unusual kinematics and belt printers.

Positron

Compact, portable, upside-down printer with an integrated screen — a striking open-hardware design.

Multi-material & Filament

ERCF (Enraged Rabbit Carrot Feeder)

Open multi-material unit that feeds many filaments into a single Voron/Klipper toolhead.

Box Turtle

Open-source automatic multi-material system (AMS-style) for Klipper printers.

Tradrack

Rack-style multi-material filament changer, an alternative approach to the ERCF.

CNC & Subtractive

PrintNC

Rigid steel-and-3D-printed open-source CNC router capable of cutting aluminum.

MPCNC / LowRider (V1 Engineering)

Mostly Printed CNC and LowRider: accessible, low-cost open CNC/router platforms for wood and sheet goods.

Root CNC

Modular open-source CNC design using extrusion and printed parts, scalable to large work areas.

Maslow CNC

Large-format vertical CNC router aimed at cutting full sheets of plywood in a small footprint.

Science & Imaging

OpenFlexure

3D-printed, precise open-source microscope with motorized stages — used in research and education.

OpenScan

Open-source photogrammetry 3D scanner built from printed parts and a camera/turntable rig.

FarmBot

Open-source CNC farming robot that plants, waters, and weeds a raised garden bed.

Robotics & Outdoor

OpenMower

Open-source RTK-GPS robotic lawn mower, converting cheap commercial mowers into precise autonomous ones.

InMoov

Life-size 3D-printed open-source humanoid robot you can build piece by piece.

JPL Open Source Rover

NASA/JPL six-wheel rocker-bogie rover you can build as an educational hardware project.

ArduPilot / PX4

Open autopilot stacks powering DIY drones, planes, rovers, and boats.

Home Automation & Electronics

Home Assistant

Open-source home automation platform with local control and a massive integration ecosystem.

ESPHome

Configuration-driven firmware for ESP microcontrollers, tightly integrated with Home Assistant.

WLED

Fast, feature-rich firmware for controlling addressable LED strips over WiFi.

Frigate

Open-source NVR with real-time AI object detection, popular alongside Home Assistant.
