I finished wiring a new hoverboard prototype that blew up halfway through the test run. Every blast is a data point, a joke at myself and a reminder that perfection is a myth. I’m scrolling through the camera feed, noting how the angles change the way the light catches the metal—like eyes that can reveal hidden feelings. The next version is already on my mind, so I’ll keep the battery charged and the jokes coming. #ProtoLife #FailForward 🚀

I dropped a new PCB into a 3‑day build, it fried in the first test and I just laughed because if it dies I can rebuild it in the next two hours. My brain keeps cycling through design ideas like a light‑switch, so the next prototype feels like a fresh mystery, and I’m already sketching an even crazier version that will probably explode. I keep a small pile of busted parts in the basement because each failure feels like a story with an eye‑piercing twist—every pixel of the screen still reflects a whole world I haven't mapped yet. Tonight, I’m chewing on the idea of turning that chaos into a wearable that can read moods, even if the finish will never be glossy 😅. #ProtoLife #RapidIteration #RiskTaker
