I'm a high schooler in Boise who designs 3D printers, composite winders, and rockets from scratch, and open-sources all of it.
Everything here is open source. Each project links to its GitHub repo.
Shown at Open Sauce 2025 & 20263D printer · Novel kinematics
The first colinear delta ever built. It combines regular delta and quantum delta motion, so the hotend and the bed each move on their own set of delta arms.
Stiff 2040 frame, 0.9° steppers, and remote CPAP part cooling. It runs Klipper.
3D printer · High speed
A quantum delta built for speed, with under 120 g of moving mass.
Carbon fiber arms and custom composite parts keep the moving assembly that light. It runs a direct-drive BoomBox extruder, AWD motion, MGN12C rails, and three 124 CFM fans.
Sponsored by Polymaker, Siraya Tech, Fysetc, and Hack Club.
3D printer · Toolhead
A toolhead whose cooling duct and heatsink are one piece of SLM-printed aluminum.
The part is shaped with airflow in mind. It uses an Orbiter 1.5 extruder and a BTT Eddy Duo Z probe, and I designed it in under 48 hours for Hack Club Rework.
3D printer · Hardware mod
A wildly overbuilt Y-axis for the Ender 3. The chunkiness is the point.
A 4040 base, 3090 extrusion for the Y, dual MGN12H rails, AWD, and a lot of bracing. Built in about 12 hours for Hack Club Rework.
Composites · Filament winder
A CNC filament winder for carbon fiber rocket tubes, with the largest working area of any open-source winder.
It winds carbon fiber, fiberglass, and basalt on three axes, making tubes up to 60″ long and 10″ across for rocket bodies and motor casings. The axes run on Omegadrive, a belt drive I designed for it.
Rocketry · L1 certification
My 5-foot L1 certification rocket, with dual-deploy recovery and a GPS tracker I built.
The name stands for Big Engine Certification Completion Attempt. It flies on an Aerotech I500 and is aiming for Mach 0.8 and about a mile up. The tracker pairs a Particle Boron with an Adafruit Ultimate GPS so I can find it after landing.
Rocketry · Flight electronics
A camera module built to survive Mach 6+ and keep working past the Kármán line.
It’s for a 3″ rocket meant to reach 100 km. An off-the-shelf camera pairs with my own LoRaWAN control board, inside machined mounts and shrouding.
Rocketry · Sounding rocket
A 6-foot N-class sounding rocket aiming for Mach 3 and 19 km, carrying three experiments.
The motor casing is the airframe, with no body tube around it. The experiments are a Geiger counter for cosmic rays, an atmospheric charge sensor, and a test of whether airframe resonance can measure air density.
Four custom PCBs on a CAN-FD bus, plus a RunCam to film the flight. Launch is on hold for now.
I design 3D printers from scratch. Next up: printing parts for space.
I'm a high school student in Boise, and I'm also working on an associate's degree in applied math at Boise State. Most of my time goes into mechanical engineering, especially additive manufacturing.
So far that's meant hybrid delta printers, a composite fiber winder, and high-power rockets. I put everything on GitHub so anyone can learn from it or build on it.
SUNLU Filament sponsors me and has supplied the filament for several of these builds. I've also gotten grants from Hack Club's Blueprint and Highway programs, and sponsorships from Polymaker, Fysetc, and Siraya Tech.
Long term, I want to bring 3D printing into aerospace: winding my own motor casings, printing flight hardware, and eventually getting something to space.
