DIY Garage Projects | Mechanics & Electronics | 3D Printing | Welding | Motorcycles & Adventuring
Welcome to my channel where I show you all kinds of DIY projects, and some other stuff as well. Come along to be inspired, perhaps pick up some tips & tricks or just be entertained! 😎
Many of my projects happens in my garage. It's a multi-purpose garage as it is my workshop and my YouTube studio. Many of my projects are actually me improving my garage. It will also be a lot of motorcycle fixer-upper videos for a while, since I have several bikes lined up.

One pretty and two magnificent builds 😁
Very different bikes, what would you have?
(Sorry for the typo on the picture, it was supposed to be pretty but the brain did not work at the moment)

The first trip of the year in the Elefant adventures series had a wet start. It has been 5 hours with rain, out of 7 hours total ride time so far. One hour remaining today, it's still raining. The good news is: it's gonna stop raining when I arrive 🥴

What have I forgotten? That's what's going through my mind right now 😅 Elefant Adventure series season 3 is starting right now! Instead of fixing the remaining issues in my motorcycle, and then going on an adventure trip - I decided to do it the other way around this year 😁

The first Ctrl MC device that looks like a real product! I used some of the dev boards I had and made a canbus sniffer. Tested it with SavvyCan and it works nicely. The system uses standardized canbus protocols (both CAN 2.0 and FD CAN) and a canbus message DBC configuration file. I have mostly used Kvaser DB Editor to configure canbus messages. The open source Python system: Cantools are used to generate the C helper methods for packing and unpacking messages from the system.
The system uses well established standards, making it highly compatible with other systems, reliable and efficient. This looks very promising!

Running a stress-test today. The turn signals have been blinking for one hour so far, and they are still in sync 😁 I considered for a second to set up a live stream: testing the Ctrl MC system minute-by-minute 😂

Hi, I have been pretty busy coding for the Ctrl MC system lately, not much to share on video, but getting close to a fully working software now🤞I did however take a break from the computer today, and made some progress on my Honda cafe racer. Made a short video about it - take a look here:

Soon ready to test two of the I/O modules with canbus communication. It definitely takes time to crimp on all these connectors 😝

Does it look to be OK? 🙄 Using almost all the pins on the 48 pin STM32-G4 microcontroller for the Ctrl MC input/output unit. Not sure if it will work yet, starting the coding now🤞
