101 Things

Welcome to 101 Things, a collection of projects that celebrate creativity and hands-on ingenuity. If you share a passion for making things, you've come to the right place. Each project uses simple designs, and basic tools, to push the creative boundaries of a home tinkerer. Join me on this exploration of crafting, coding, and constructing, as we unlock the magic of making, one project at a time.
