The models section is now live. It pulls together the 3D-printable things I have put on Printables over the years: hydroponic parts, hose experiments, pegboard bits, brackets, adapters, mounts, small household fixes, and the occasional odd object that exists because I wanted to see if the printer could make the problem go away.

That is the nice thing about small printed parts. They are usually not grand inventions. They are little arguments with the physical world: a hose thread that needs one more fitting, a controller that should have had a wall mount, a bucket system that almost works, a pet station that turns into plumbing, sensors, drawers, and too many printed revisions.

A few of the more popular ones are below. The full list is now on the models page.

50mm / 2in Hydroponic Net Cup

A simple hydroponic net cup, which is probably why it has done well. It solves one job, fits into a larger grow setup, and does not ask the printer to be clever for no reason.

Modular Hydroponic Tower Garden

This is the bigger hydroponics project: modular tower sections, plant-cup offshoots, a center-routed hose path, and normal garden hardware. It is one of those builds where the printed part is only half the story; the other half is water taking every opportunity to remind you it has opinions.

Laminar Flow Garden Hose Head

The laminar-flow hose heads exist for a very serious engineering reason: smooth water looks cool. Mk1 used packed diffuser material, Mk2 moved more of the flow conditioning into the print, and Mk3 pushes toward a cleaner stator-style core.

The Infinity Bowl

The Infinity Bowl is the overbuilt one: an in-wall pet feeding and hydration station with printed parts, plumbing, sensors, a drawer mechanism, and Arduino-oriented control. It started as a practical pet project and turned into a small mechanical ecosystem.


Borg Cube

Borg Cube is on the other end of the spectrum: less practical fixture, more object. It is there because not every model needs to justify itself as a tool. Sometimes the printer is allowed to make a cube with personality.


Ratcheting Toothpaste Squeezer

The toothpaste squeezer is exactly what it sounds like: a small household mechanism for a tiny repeated annoyance. These are the kinds of models I like keeping around because they show the practical side of printing without making the whole thing feel precious.

The full collection is on the models page, with sorting by likes, makes, downloads, views, and date.

The projects section now has a real home for the tools, CAD builds, 3D-printable models, browser experiments, and old-code revivals I keep working on. The cards are the quick tour; the notes below add the context and links.

m68k-interpreter

Forked from Gianluca Rea's browser interpreter so I could revive an old Nibbles game I wrote in college. I kept the debugger pieces and added the terminal runtime needed for keyboard-driven play.


Nibbles 68000

Nibbles 68000 is the old game itself: the original `nibbles.asm`, now wired into the browser interpreter with a report path so the revived version can stay playable.


varcad.io screenshot

varcad.io

varcad.io is my browser workspace for parametric CAD: editing, OpenSCAD/JSCAD compilation, GitHub sync, STL output, and report review in one place.


ascii.gallery screenshot

ascii.gallery

ascii.gallery is my ANSI/ASCII art viewer and import pipeline. It crawls old textmode artwork, validates and converts files, then renders them in a browser with scrolling playback.


sikuli-go

sikuli-go is my Go layer for Sikuli-style desktop automation: image matching, OCR, clicks, typing, and reporting for tests where the screen is the API.


autoresearch-jung

autoresearch-jung is my Jungian fork of autoresearch. It keeps thesis/antithesis/synthesis notes, Codex prepare/reflect phases, Runpod runs, logs, telemetry, and Experiment Atlas close to the code that produced them.


micropython-ota-updater

micropython-ota-updater adapts rdehuyss's updater for ESP32 projects that should pull from a GitHub branch at boot, update changed files, and leave local `env.py` secrets alone.


test-station

test-station gives mixed-stack projects a consistent `report.json` and HTML report: coverage, ownership, failures, fixtures, and drilldown views in one place.


gulp-rev-all

gulp-rev-all is the Gulp plugin I maintain for cache-safe asset revisioning. It hashes files, rewrites references, emits manifests, and keeps parent filenames changing when child assets change.


React Retro Screen

React Retro Screen is the reusable terminal-style renderer that came out of ascii.gallery: ANSI playback, editable screens, color modes, grid behavior, prompts, and input handling without bringing the whole gallery along.


sikuli-framework

sikuli-framework is the Python/Robot Framework layer over sikuli-go, so tests can describe windows, controls, menus, and app behavior instead of repeating raw screenshot steps.


jungstein.com screenshot

jungstein.com

jungstein.com is the writing and media side: essays, notes, and videos around science, psychology, cognition, consciousness, and the parts of those subjects I keep circling back to.


project-commander

project-commander is my local control plane for repos, terminals, dev servers, logs, and remote Go agents. It exists because my development setup kept getting messy in the same repeatable ways.
