Welcome to HamNB (Hampton Additive Manufacturing). This site is a home for project logs, hardware tinkering, microcontrollers, and low-power computing.
I type this by hand from my own mind, no trackers, no ads, no bloated modern frameworks. My goal is to keep this site completely lightweight so it remains accessible from anything: modern browsers, vintage PCs, terminals, or text-based browsers like lynx.
| Topic | Overview |
|---|---|
| WeatherB Station | Local SDR weather telemetry, real-time sensor processing, and live local alerts. |
| Mesh Radio (MeshCore) | Off-grid mesh networking, 915 MHz antenna propagation, repeaters, and field nodes. |
| RISC-V & Radxa SBCs | Single-board computing experiments, Orange Pi RV2, Radxa Rock stacks, and PCIe GPUs on RISC-V. |
| Electronics & Auto | Microcontrollers, custom ESP32 Bluetooth OBD-II data logging for the VW Taos, and hardware mods. |
| Home Assistant | Local-only smart home control, Zigbee networks, CT clamp energy monitoring, and automated climate flows. |
| 3D Printing | Additive manufacturing, local print farm updates (Bambu A1 Mini), and custom functional parts. |
| Solar Infrastructure | Grid-tied microinverter array, OpenDTU sub-1GHz radio data scraping, and winter snow management. |
