Happy New Year! 🎉

As a self employed 20 year old hardware developer, 2023 kicked my ass.

I had to take a break from posting but here's a look inside the chaos from my year! 🧵⬇️

[Alex Lynd @AlexLynd]

Introducing 3CIe, an oddly specific #PCIe adapter I designed for an upcoming @nucc_inc project.

Anyone got PCIe #PCB routing tips? 💻

[Alex Lynd @AlexLynd]

@SecureThisNow @0xAnthraX @DustinFinn @truthache68 @rfhackers Yes! I got meter level accuracy with phased array tech I was building for a large Formula One campus and want to achieve sub-meter positioning using BLE 5.4 some time this year :P

@bateskecom I was about to DM you to consult on a project! Hopefully you remember me from Teardown, shoot me a message when u get a chance :)

@Adogg83 @defcon @Cyb3rMaddy come to another one of my workshop! i should be hosting one in LA or OC next month :)

[Alex Lynd @AlexLynd]

😻What a throwback! The WiFi Nugget was my first design at 18 which I debuted at @defcon 30 + used as a teaching tool at local makerspaces!

Great video by @Cyb3rMaddy, you can find the latest version of this tool at https://t.co/GGuYcb5fmD :)

@kicadparts @PCBWayOfficial Thank you :D

[Alex Lynd @AlexLynd]

✨ I finally got the astral heart earring PCBs from @PCBWayOfficial and they look beautiful!

I designed them in 3 days without testing the schematic, so hopefully it works!

The retro @pwnedcr badge is coming along! 🎮

All components on here including the LCD were ripped off random scrap electronics and hand soldered - I only paid $7 for the PSP1000 controller.

Circuit board is sponsored by @PCBWayOfficial :)

I didn't realize how much time I spend on public transit until I looked at progress photos from designing a conference badge for @pwnedcr 😹

☠️@Hackaday highlighted how I use #microcontrollers to build low-cost #hacking devices, and as an affordable tool for teaching #cybersecurity. 🧑‍💻
