Euro Tail Lights
- 23 December 2021

Install Windows 11 on an Intel Mac
- 11 December 2021
This guide lays out the steps I take to install Windows 11 on my Intel-based Apple computers using a custom ISO. This allows me to bypass the current TPM 2.0 requirement, since at this time Boot Camp does not provide TPM 2.0 to Windows.

EcoHitch Install
- 25 October 2021
I decided to go with the EcoHitch x7315. Installing was straight forward, but it ended up taking my entire Sunday to complete. Overall I’m very happy with how it turned out.
Monoprice Maker Select v2

I bought my first 3D printer from Amazon in 2018 for $300. It’s on the cheaper end but there’s a large community behind it.
Rear Dashcam Pair
- 08 September 2021
Installed a second pair of cameras to get a better view out of the rear of my car for read-end crashes as well as another IR camera pointed towards the front of the car. This way I have a sort of 360 view from both inside-pointing cameras. Like the front camera I also bought a tamper-proof case for the rear one. Similarly I also use BlackVue batteries to keep the camera powered overnight.
