I’ve always been interested in learning about how things function and what makes them work. This curiosity led me to begin performing teardowns to better understand how the objects that I enjoy using everyday have been designed and manufactured.

I think there is an under appreciated beauty to the internal components beneath the polished A-surfaces of the products that we use everyday. So much thought and attention goes into these products and yet most of it is rarely seen.

On this page I explore the internals of some of my favourite devices and accessories, specifically looking at the mechanical design, materials, and manufacturing processes that went into their making.
