a nerd builds things...

Put to your mind to it... ...you can do anything

During the COVID-19 pandemic I had time off work... more free time unlocked my curiosity... could i make things? ... these are some of the projects I've take on...

The Pipe Dream!

Since I was 8 years old I've dreamed of having a mini ramp in the back yard. 30 years later we made it happen. 27 feet long and 6.5 feet high this was a beast of a ramp! Zero broken bones... so far.

Bartop Arcade

In early 2020 I stumbled across a Youtube video of someone showing off an Arcade Cabinet they created... That opened a door I could not close... Another building project 10yr old me would die for!

Themed after Daft Punk, we went with the name Starcade after the late 80s competitive Arcade TV show... check out our Starcade

Arcade
Book Shelf

We live in a small place and i wanted to add a track ball and spinner to the arcade... So of course i made another arcade cab.

2 Player Arcade

Equipped with 4-way / 8-way auto switching joysticks, track ball & spinner and 27" display!

CoinOps

The gold standard Arcade frontend! Over 3k+ games. All your fav Arcade & Console titles.

the Coffee Table

Everything I make has to be a custom design so it will fit into our tiny space. It also needs to have max functionality... because why create boring things! This things equipped with power bar, powered USB hub, Bluetooth, and HDMI.

Virtural pinball cabinet

Early 2022 I came across a Pinball stream on Twitch to which I come to learn it was not a physical pinball machine he was playing... even though it looked like it.

It was then the Virtual Pinball door was opened and I could not close it. Due to the limitation of the size of our apartment I went work work in SketchUp and designed a vpin cab that would fit in our place.

I also got involved with the vpin community and we created vpinhub.com a vpin community site with that hosts weekly tournaments!

BIG DAMN CRATE

Firefly is one of the greatest shows ever created. The board game is also amazing and my #1 favorite game. Having collected all of it... I swore by my pretty floral bonnet I needed to find a way to solve the organizing woes.

This organizer supports sleeved cards and holds all current expansions, with at least a little room to spare! When you can’t run, you crawl. And when you can’t do that, let The Broken Token carry you.

the prototype table

Dinning room Board Game table

We've always wanted a custom dining room / board game table... but they are over $3k USD before shipping... So came up with a design, based off Wyrmwood MGT, and created a prototype table using scrap wood I had...

Yes... I named the table after me, what a dork eh! This was my first hard wood project. It took some time, but its finally finished! Like everything I design and build, its not perfect, but I made it.
