In this video, I’ll show you how I used SolidWorks, a 3D printer, and some basic DIY skills to clean up my home-network setup in my garage. The goal was simple: make the area neater, reduce cable clutter, and retain access to power points and equipment when needed. 🏫 What you’ll see through the video 🔹 assessing the existing mess of components 🔹 setting up a rough SolidWorks layout using a sketch and reference images 🔹 using decals to quickly approximate port/LED positions 🔹 printing prototypes to check fit before committing to a bigger print 🔹 iterating the mounting approach 🔹 final prints, cleanup, install, and the end result This is practical, “get it done” modelling — not a perfection exercise. 🔩 Designed in SolidWorks 2023 🖨️ Printed on a BambuLab P1S Thanks to those that view/like/comment on YouTube - it helps grow the audience!

@Chris Buerckner am i correct that you don't have a leson of hole wizard. or is it just me that can't find it?

Officially on holidays today (for a week+) but that’s no excuse not to keep up with updates. Highlight this week was a live stream on SolidWorks Appearances! Thanks to those from here that joined or viewed afterwards. There were a couple of niche situations that I didn’t cover, which I will record and edit together with the original stream. I’ve also scheduled a new DIY Project video this week, which I’ll share here once it’s live. Hope you enjoy Have a great week all

Livestream is scheduled for 15/01 at 9-11pm AEST. You can see it in the calendar. I'd love to answer any SolidWorks or design questions you have. Post below

For the last 2.5 years, every Sunday evening, I've spent 15 minutes reviewing my week's Side Projects and the occasional milestone. I would capture Completed, Outstanding and Future tasks, as well as a number of metrics for items I was choosing to pursue. I do this in a Notion database. I think there may be a benefit in sharing these as part of the "Behind the Scenes" of this Skool Community and my design side projects. In 2026, I'm going to post those same reviews here. I may have to omit confidential client-related items, but otherwise I'll be as transparent as can be. If you see anything of interest, I'd be happy to expand further. I would highly recommend that everyone have their own personal review system and cadence, whether that be weekly or otherwise. Let me know what you think!
