Welcome to my garage!


Think of this place as an unorganized collection of things I’m working on. It’s like my personal little workshop or well, a garage. What you can find here can range from little experiments and crafts to storage of unfinished projects to fun nonsense. Sorry, it’s a bit messy in here!
