Here are a couple things I’ve made

Ice Cold Beer

A fully functioning replica of the 1983 mechanical arcade game Ice Cold Beer, designed and built from scratch. Controlled via Arduino, the machine features a hand-drilled playfield, 3D printed mechanics, custom printed circuit boards, lights, sounds, and more.

Tennis Ball Machine

A custom-designed and built ball machine for on-court training. Powered by Arduino and integrated brushless servo motors, it features a detachable ball hopper, a leadscrew-driven tilting mechanism, a double herringbone gear pan system, and a ball indexer for precise timing control.

And many more
