Repurposing Hardware • Building Tools • Questionable Engineering
The Lab
Welcome to ZRLabs.
This is where I document hardware hacking, reverse engineering, homelab experiments, locksport, privacy projects, and whatever terrible idea captures my attention.
My goal isn't to buy expensive gear. It's to understand how things work, build tools when I need them, and repurpose hardware whenever possible.
Every device deserves one last terrible idea.
Latest Experiments
- Building a Pico-powered Bus Pirate clone
- Investigating UART on random routers
- Creating a homelab from discarded hardware
- Collecting hardware for future abuse
Projects
Tech Necromancy
Repurposing forgotten electronics into something useful, ridiculous, or both.
Homemade Tools
Building tools instead of buying them.
Hardware Archaeology
Exploring routers, mystery PCBs, displays, and embedded systems.
Lab Notes
Failures, discoveries, experiments, and occasional success.
