This is/was one of my blogs. Just a few bits and pieces - IT, woodwork, metalwork, electronics, DIY, technology articles and anything else I might be currently interested in and get around to documenting.

There might be some broken things because this site was converted roughly from Wordpress to jekyll.

My main area of interest these days is political party innovation which I’m building a project for at oneaction.nz

Here’s my first attempt at making something with the mill. Also my first attempt at using the WordPress mobile app to post. If this is easy maybe I’ll post more regularly. Micro-blogging I think they call it?

This just started out with milling into the body of an old HP harddrive to get a feel for the machine. Very high grade aluminium (I presume). Very easy to mill.

After a while this is what I came up with.

It’s an adjustable bracket. I think. For what? I’m not sure.

This is very exciting. The only limit is imagination…..I imagined an adjustable bracket. Oh that’s really sad!
