What I'm building

Projects

These are the projects, experiments and ideas I’m working on outside of the day-to-day running of my homelab. Some are active, some are early, and some are still taking shape.

Retro Refresh

A project focused on refurbishing and upgrading retro tech, starting with iPods and expanding into other devices over time.

  • iPod Classic flash and battery upgrades
  • Testing parts before selling anything
  • Building a repeatable and reliable workflow

Fitrics

A project to analyse fitness data from FIT files and turn it into something more useful and easier to understand.

  • Processing activity data
  • Exploring visualisations and trends
  • Building something I would genuinely use myself

This site

AdamBray.me is a project in its own right. It’s where I document what I’m building, what’s working, and what I’ve learned along the way.

  • Writing about my homelab and systems
  • Creating a clear public home for projects
  • Keeping things simple and personal

Future ideas

Not everything needs to be fully formed before it earns a place here. These are the areas I want to explore next.

  • Small internal tools for my own use
  • Better backup and workflow tooling
  • Automations that solve real problems at home

How I think about projects

I’m not interested in building things just for the sake of it. The projects here are all tied to something practical, something I want to improve, or something I want to understand properly.
