Useful things.
Unusual questions.
Built honestly.
Skepbuilt is an engineering lab that designs, builds, tests, and documents practical machines and long-arc experiments.
On the bench
Work in public
Projects begin with a question. The public record grows only when there is something useful to show, measure, or share.
Fabrication · Firewood
Laser-Cut Log Bucking Machine
A modular machine made from commercially laser-cut sheet and tube parts for repeatable firewood lengths.
Instrumentation · Energy
Yard Weather Station
A self-hosted environmental station built to quantify the wind resource on one specific property.
The lab
“The engineering is the main character.”
Skepbuilt follows projects that are worth doing anyway—from fabrication and machines to instrumentation and energy experiments.
Plans, data, drawings, and parts are shared when they are genuinely useful and ready. The aim is a growing library of careful work, not a posting schedule.
