Welcome to the little slice of the internet for Andy Lunn. IT Professional, Senior Software Developer, Retro-Gamer, Maker and Father of four.
Enjoy this curated history of my 37 favourite creations over the last 30 years:-
Rustic looking hallway drop for letters, keys and anything else in your pockets.
Lots of recycled pallets turned into a large blanket box for the bedroom, with hinged lid.
A crate for a baby shower gift hamper. All made from recycled pallets.
A gift for my niece to reach those places toddlers can't.
A large storage unit to house all the families shoes. Made from recycled pallets.
Massive chunky door stop from left over oak slabs and a WWII belt.
To celebrate a Hawaiian party I made this litle decoration out of scrap pallet wood. Looks like a cross between Wallace and Crash Bandicoot.
Made from a load of offcuts of hardwood from dark to light (outside to middle) in a mid-century modern style.
A playful, coat hanger at a low level for the kids to use. Made from scrap plywood and an old broom handle. A tip of colour to make it all pop.
A nice recycling projet to enable me to use all my Ryobi batteries for camping power.
My daughter needed a large storage box for all her pens and pencils so I quickly built this including a branch from a tree she picked up on a walk.
This was created specifically to take camping and hold a mini camp kitchen, but ended up being far more useful around the house as well as in the wild. Tripod legs screw into the bottom.
Used up a ton of long thin scrap to create this neat little ornament at xmas time for the dining room table.
A geometric, symetric pattern wooden wall art. Made from scrap for a Xmas gift.
A bunch of Jack-o-Lantern's for all the family at Halloween.
My lockdown project using classic joystick controls, and a wide array of nostalgic games to transport myself back to the golden age of arcades.
A bit of extra seating was needed in the lounge so a stiped down pallet and some scaffold board leftovers gave us this sturdy, rustic stool.
Gift for a loved one.
A tiny little stool for my daughter from a slice of log gifted to me and some recycled hand rail.
Custom trailer for camping. Huge box with flip-top lid to accomodate our massive amount of camping gear.
My first attempt as using reclaimed pallet wood to make furniture. Fits nicely as as an end table with elegant hairpin legs.
A simple farmhouse inspired large coat hanger with replica cast iron hooks.
All in one camp kitchen, scratch build from old ply and sapele wood offcuts. All painted in tough black with removeable legs and folds up into a box.
A tabletop mini arcade running on a Raspberry PI 3B+ with a real arcade joystick and buttons.
A nice upcycle project from a battered old army foot locker. Restored, repainted and new lid created with a built in seat finished in a Marvel comic fabric.
A custom TV mount for my new Sony TV at the time, built atop the existing Shesham tv corner unit. Designed to hide all the wires and boxes behind.
Battle your opponents to take the grid. Test your skills against the computer AI or challenge up to three friends to see who will dominate.
Snare and destroy the evil Dronx mastermind on each of the games 19 twisted levels over 3 chapters. A fresh and innovative take on the puzzle genre, described as a fusion of Chu Chu Rocket and Bomberman.
An action puzzler where you must work through the 44 hard as nails levels collecting cubes in the time allotted. Completionists will enjoy finding the hidden dark cubes to get that 100% progress.
Launch of CSV Easy software, the all-in-one tool for anyone who works with CSV files.
A unique little puzzler where you must channel water to the exit to complete a level. Using the mouse you can draw goo to manipulate the landscape to force the water where you need it to go.
Quirky puzzler for DOS created back in 1998 for a japanese competition.
Fun little fireworks themed match 4 puzzle game for DOS. Use DosBox to play on a modern PC
An action video game based on the first three installments of the Die Hard series of action movies. I was part of the team that converted the PS1 version to Saturn.
Side scrolling shooter in the style of defender for the Amiga computer.
A seriously oddball puzzle/shooter game where you fly down a tunnel collecting colour bubbles to slowly reveal a word puzzle. Used the likeness of the Pooyan arcade game for some reason ;)
Top down shooter for the Amiga computer. Thrust and blast your way through the hoards of enemies with your blaster and smart bombs.
