A photograph of a 3D printed giant mechanical keyboard key. The base of the key is printed in Orange PETG. The keycap is mostly printed in PETG Magenta, but the very top is printed in PETG Black for contrast. The logo on the keycap is for the 72PinConnector gaming group and the logo is made up of the characters: 72PC.

A screenshot of FreeCAD showing my "Tom's WIDE Pill Case" project. On the left, you can see a VarSet with many variables that drive the design of the models.
A screenshot of FreeCAD showing my "TPU Bedside Cable Guide" part. This is designed to latch onto a wooden bed frame to guide phone charging cables along the headboard so they don't fall onto your face.
A screenshot of the open source software: Gitea. The screenshot shows an organization named "ImportantRepos", which has 117 repositories. These repositories are all mirrors of existing code repos. A sampling of the repos in the picture are: gcc, git, ruby, go, godot, chromium, firefox, and freebsd source code.
