Small, fast, useful things.

I'm James. I build web projects, games, drone tools, wood products, and small systems from a workshop in the woods.

About

I've built websites, browser tools, startup features, drones, workshop projects, and too many half-finished prototypes. This site is the index for the things I'm actively turning into something useful.

Full-stack and front-end development. Workshop builds. Drones and FPV. Game prototypes. Small business and web work.

Build log

Most of the work is public: prototypes, mistakes, tests, builds, and iteration.
