Hi, I’m TinkerGear. I build, fix, and explore. Whether it’s reverse-engineering a car part, fixing a classic, hacking a hybrid drivetrain, building a lithium battery, or designing something entirely new, I’m always working on something.
This site is where I share the projects, experiments, and ideas that keep me curious. You’ll find:
3D CAD & Reverse Engineering
Turning real-world parts into digital models—so they can be improved, reproduced, or adapted. My primary focus is car parts.
3D Printing & Fabrication
Custom tooling, prototypes, and components that bring ideas to life.
Electronics & PCB Design
From simple Arduino projects to battery management systems and spot welders!
Automotive Projects
Repairing, modifying, and experimenting – especially with hybrid cars like the Honda Insight and Chevy Volt.
Woodworking & Laser Cutting
Blending traditional skills with modern tools to create practical and beautiful things.
Lithium Battery Builds & Computer Hardware
Testing used lithium batteries, designing custom battery packs, building and repairing PCs, and learning new things.
I chose the name TinkerGear because I’m always tinkering, always learning, and rarely without a project for more than a few hours. It doesn’t matter if it’s fixing something or making something new – I’m happiest when I’m building and experimenting.
