Shifter Go Kart
Shifter Go Kart
I have always wanted to build something with engines, so I thought I should start with a gokart. Low and behold, it was one of the most larges complex projects due to size, integration, and shear force it would have to endure. Despite many issues during the build process, I was able to navigate and find unique solutions, completing the project after 3 months of work
Remote Control Planes
Remote Control Planes
A few years ago, my brother and I decided to build our own remote control airplane. We struggled through many iterations, but eventually the plane flew; we were hooked. Since then, we have built three additional models, including a 3D printed plane.
Perhaps it was preordained -- we are "the Wright Brothers"!
Fully 3D printed RC car
Fully 3D printed RC car
I have always been fascinated by RC cars, racing them against my brother and building various obstacle courses. I wanted to build my own RC car from scratch, and it was far more challenging than I originally expected.
Ultimately, I created a car that could go 30 miles per hour, had a full suspension system, and all-wheel drive with differentials.
Bridge Competition
Bridge Competition
Recently, there was a bridge building competition in my high school engineering class.
My bridge held 285 pounds, shattering the school record! The bridge held so much weight that the mechanism holding the weight to test the bridge broke, indicating that my bridge could likely have held even more weight.
Ice Cream Lock Box
Ice Cream Lock Box
In order to protect my sacred homemade ice cream from my parents, who didn't want to eat it but couldn't resist, I set out to make a safe. It needed to be thin and able to fit in the freezer. I had already made a lock previously, but it was too large since it was a key mechanism. I made a 1/2 inch micro combination lock that interacts with 2 rack and pinions, to lock the lid in place.
DIY Snowmaker
DIY Snowmaker
My brother and I are crazy about skiing. One day, we decided to build a DIY terrain park in our backyard including rails and jumps. Unfortunately, it only snows a few times a year in New Jersey and my brother and I quickly burn out the snow. We decided to make a homemade snowmaker to fill in patches. Using compressed air and a pressure washer, we built a contraption that mimics the snowmakers at ski resorts.
