The old coffee grinder from the 1970s, an heirloom of a friend, was completely rebuilt and re-modeled in Fusion 360. Originally designed for large quantities, it now grinds precisely the desired espresso dose. A newly developed container — magnetically fixed and angled for optimal performance — ensures excellent grinding quality and fits perfectly with the portafilter. Made from ABS and TPU, the parts are both dishwasher-safe and non-slip. Particularly innovative is the flexible lid of the bean container, which functions like a small pump to remove coffee residues from the grinder.
Coffee Grinder – Conversion & Modernization
For my apartment, I designed a custom-built cabinet that integrates seamlessly into the space. The pedestal with baseboard creates a clean line, while a cozy seating nook with two wall lights and hidden cable routing adds extra comfort. Inside, it conceals a self-designed holder for the vacuum cleaner as well as a movable platform for a 3D printer, which can be pulled out when needed. Functionality and living aesthetics blend seamlessly here.

Hovercraft – Model Building
As a personal hobby project, I built a homemade hovercraft inspired by the iconic Star Wars vehicles. From the construction of the motor housing and the impeller to the electronics, every component was independently designed and manufactured. The project combines engineering knowledge with craftsmanship, demonstrating how technology, model building, and creativity can merge into a functional overall concept.
