Side Projects & Hobbies
Personal Projects
Outside of engineering work, I spend my time building things, from my YouTube channel and vintage bikes to custom electronics and embedded systems.
Creative
Sharing My Projects: YouTube Channel
Sharing design, manufacturing, and mechanics projects on my YouTube channel. I document vehicle conversions, custom motorcycle builds, and electronic projects for a community of enthusiasts, handling the entire production pipeline independently, including filming, editing, and content creation.
Mechanics
Yamaha 125 Café Racer Build
Undertook the complete modification of a 1993 Yamaha SR 125 into a café racer and scrambler style motorcycle. Bought in May 2020, the project was completed in December 2020 and was fully documented in a video series on YouTube. To date, the transformation videos have accumulated over 60,000 views.
Electronics
STM32 VCU: Embedded Firmware System
- FreeRTOS task scheduling with CAN-based safety interlocks: brake-overrides-throttle, watchdog supervision, CAN-timeout faults, APPS plausibility checks
- Configuration-driven build ("VCU Forge") supporting multiple vehicle profiles via pluggable feature blocks (traction control, torque vectoring, lighting, telemetry)
- Companion ESP32 dashboard node sharing CAN protocol code to prevent byte-layout drift
- Software-in-the-Loop harness validating real control logic against a simulated vehicle plant in Python
Mechanics
BMW E30 Restoration
Undertaking the continuous restoration of my first car, a classic BMW E30. I have completed an extensive suspension refresh and bodywork refurbishment, which helped me develop my mechanical and fabrication skills, including welding. I am currently working on the electrical system to improve reliability and cabin comfort.
Electronics & Mechanics
1000W Yose Power E-Bike Conversion
Initiated my experience with electric vehicles by converting a Btwin 520s mountain bike using a 1000W Yose Power kit. The project involved assembling the kit with the necessary mechanical adaptations. I documented the build on YouTube, where it has gained over 80,000 views and led to an ongoing collaboration with the brand.
Electronics
Self-Made Helmet Intercom System
Engineered a custom motorcycle helmet intercom as a budget-friendly alternative to commercial systems. I salvaged the components of a non-functional Bluetooth speaker, designed and 3D-printed a custom mounting enclosure, and wired it to speakers from a set of broken headphones. The system has operated reliably for over a year, costing only 1.50€ in plastic filament.
Electronics
Electric Skateboard: Li-Ion Battery Build
Built my first electric skateboard by purchasing a broken high-end board and performing a complete battery rebuild. Through this project, I learned to spot-weld a custom pack using 18650 cells and made the necessary modifications to the remote and charging systems.
