What else do modders make?

[doghead]

I've enjoyed building a few mods, and am making more. I also tinker around with all other sorts of art stuff. Just wondering what non-vape related stuff you folks make.
Just to start it off, i build musical instruments.

I got back into model cars a few years ago. Every now and then I'll work on one. Here's my most recent, all hand painted chassis.

I don't make mods, but since we are showing off arts and crafts lol. This is a Forgeworld Valkyrie fighter that I painted a couple years back. Still one of my favorite models.

 

[Savage_46]

Jgoss, whatever that is I like it & want one

 

[Jgoss]

Thanks! It is a model for the miniatures game Warhammer 40k. Super fun game, but it costs an arm and a leg to get into.

 

[rjmara]

I've built a few models back in the day, but none of them had the level of detail as these here.

 

[UncleRJ]

What do I make?

Normally just a mess in the kitchen.

Just ask Mrs. Uncle!

I don't have any pictures to share at the moment but...
I used to fabricate custom intake and exhaust manifolds, Port and polish those and heads. Pretty much anything to do with motors including Ports on Rotary Motors. I dabel in Furniture restoration when I have time, I restored my daughters dresser from a very old one and did all the work plus engraved her info in to it. I used to also make custom jewelry which Is why I make silver pins and plated silver contacts for mods on the side now.
Although I don't have time I do have a custom Moto Gp 149cc pocket bike I am building for my daughter on day lol... Also another rx-7 soon to teach my daughter automotive on... Build gaming rigs for friends and do home security on the side also, which includes home generators and battery back up systems...

I make these

Drivers for flashlights

Updated driver for tiny cree flashlights called the Sipik SK68

FET driver for a Sky Ray King (Joe you think your SRK is bright stock...imagine it 3X brighter!!!)

Small Joule thief that can run a LED (enough to see with in emergencies) for about 7+ days on a single AA battery

Here is my OSHPark profile for projects I have found and worked on

and I fiddle futz with flashlights...in fact vaping is what got me interested in flashlights and building PCB's...had to have something to put those not good enough for vaping batteries into

 

[DeadShort]

I make custom hoods

 

[Fad]

You`re all so talented in such diverse ways - in just those few posts above !

I`ve got the Fasttech 'F5 Key Rapid-Repeat Manoeuvre' down to a fine art

Any chance you make drum sticks?

 

[Big Jake]

Ive got a new log trimmed down and squared up to play with. Waiting for inspiration on what to carve in it.

 

[DaveRosePiercing]

Its been a long time since i spent much time in the workshop but i used to make plugs as a part time job while working at Hot Topic 6 years ago.

 

[Celcius666]

Dayim those plugs are nice Dave

Nope my friend. I do not have a big enough lathe, only a small one for tiny projects

[StrappedKaos]

No problem just thinking about getting him a custom set, He is the drummer for the band Annuals. Good stuff

 

[st_andrew]

I make poo

 

[Big Jake]

Just off the press this evening. still needs alot of sanding. maybe get the kids to do that

 

[Cavediver]

CNC at the house? Nice!
Is that a home built / DIY unit, or...?

 

[Big Jake]

its a shark hd

 

[Cavediver]

Very cool
Where's the big "Thumbs Up" smiley when you need it?
I get to play with a 5'x10' 8-spindle unit at work. I will do home projects now and then, but that's all cabinetry and shelves. I really need to try some engraving and carving.

 

[Big Jake]

All I have done is engraving and carving and I need to make my cabinets that are also engraved and carved.
cutting plywood for furniture with that 8 spindle?

Does coffee count?
I think it does. When I'm trying to get a dual coil just right I sometimes think it requires the same attention to detail as steaming a perfect microfoam or dialing in a grind for a great espresso shot on a humid day...

^^^coffee certainly counts. I'd love to figure out how to make a better cold brew.
