Aetriq's Personal Site
Welcome!
I'm Alex and I go by Veetwo in some instances online (also my copyright label). Aetriq is my newer label seen on my PCB designs and hardware projects.
I've been repairing/restoring electronics at component and PCB levels since 2019 and provide these services for hardware, from general diagnostics to board-level soldering, as well as specialized PC building.
Latest Project
Chimera iXY v2.4
Custom High-Speed CoreXY 3D Printer
A fast 3D Printer using CoreXY kinematics, built from two different bedslingers; the Flsun i3 2017 and Mingda Magician X. Demonstrating the usability of RepRap in modern printers.
Still printing. Still free. Still RepRap.
Current Status (2-21-26): v2.4 released; check page for more details!
Current Projects
OMV Status Screen add-on
Very low cost basic status screen add-on for OpenMediaVault NAS servers. Based on the ESP32-C3 MCU, error detection and graphics recovery with 3 status LEDs. Uses ESP-IDF, very modular for different full color tfts (supporting LVGL UI).
COMPLETE
Heltec IOT Tracker PEN testing tool
A basic security pentesting tool using the Heltec IOT Wireless Tracker v1.1 with a 2.0" tft and 5 navigation buttons. Beyond basic wifi/ble functions, it also features usage of the built-in sx1262 lora and uc6550 gnss modules.
IN PROGRESS...
AECl0ud
A cydia tweak that fixes the soundcloud app, version 2.3.2 specifically. Supports A5 devices on iOS 6.1.3 only (For now).
IN PROGRESS...
Blob Detection (Name TBD)
Lightweight ESP32-CAM Klipper Add-on for 3D printer nozzle clumping detection. Entirely local inferencing model capable of catching nozzle blobbing occurring in real time, during prints. FSM-based 'resolution' for automated fixing without human intervention.
COMPLETE (See Intrastice)
Intrastice v0.1
Planned '2nd generation' of my custom CoreXY 3D printer series. A RepRap-ified Makerbot Repliacator Plus (5th gen), but can also be built entirely from scratch. This will be one of the world's most space-efficient 220mm^3 CoreXY 3d printer.
INCOMPLETE
Chimera iXY v2.4
Fully custom designed and built high-speed 3D printer from two bedslingers using ‘CoreXY’ kinematics. Apr. 24 - Feb. 26
COMPLETE
CrunchLAN
TCP-Based realtime LAN game based on the Client-Server network model. Custom java protocols using the raw socket library.
COMPLETE
MIPS Processor
Designed entirely using RTL-based VHDL & programmed on the FPGA DE2-115.
COMPLETE
Flsun i3 Speed Mod
A set of hardware/software modifications to increase speed/quality of the Flsun i3 C from 2017. Merged to Chimera iXY project.
COMPLETE (See Chimera iXY)
MAX232 UART
Design of a low power Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter with adaptive baudrate.
COMPLETE
Real-time Cycling Tracking APP
A cycling mobile app designed for tracking of data & events. Features a real-time cloud (google firebase) database.
COMPLETE
SignalSculpt
Audio reacting engine for After Effects. React any waveform frequency with a layer property in one click.
IN PROGRESS
3D Models (Coming soon...)
Tech Stack
I know the following stuff. Not limited to this though, I don't update it frequently.
Hardware & Systems
Software & Languages
Creative Work
I'm always looking to improve my audio & visual skills through the Adobe Suite. Check out my music video channel where I've been (inconsistently) uploading my progress on my project SignalSculpt!
