REAL BUILDS.
CLEAR THINKING.

Not concept art. Not black-box promises. These are working projects with the files, decisions, and lessons exposed.

LOOK
CLOSER.

Move through the engineering story, from toolhead to airflow to the open files that make the work repeatable.

01Toolhead

A documented hardware path built around the Orbiter 2.5 and Rapido 2 Plus UHF.

02Airflow

A ring-duct approach designed to support the high-flow toolhead configuration.

03Files

Printable parts, installation notes, and supporting references live in the public repository.

FLSUN S1 conversion components

Compact toolhead conversion

Built to be understood, repeated, and improved—not hidden behind a black box.

03 / Inside the lab

WHAT’S
ON THE BENCH.

A transparent view of the work being refined, documented, and shared.

01 · Active documentation

FLSUN S1 hardware conversion

Refining a complete public path through the toolhead, cooling, parts, and installation decisions.

02 · Desktop utility

Klipper Fleet Monitor

Exploring practical ways to make multi-printer visibility clearer and more useful at a glance.

</>
03 · Open repository

Public build library

Organizing real files, notes, and project context so another builder can pick up the work.

04 / Why SD TechWorks

THE BEST SOLUTION IS THE ONE SOMEONE ELSE CAN UNDERSTAND.

SD TechWorks combines hands-on making with clear technical documentation. The goal is not just to build something impressive—it is to make the thinking useful, repeatable, and open to improvement.
