Henry AI
Active • Software
A playground for building tools, workflows, and products at the intersection of code and creativity. Henry AI is where I prototype reasoning tools and helpers.

Turning ideas into things
you can hold, use and ship.
MixedMakerShop is my tiny, always-experimenting studio. I use 3D printing, code, and small-business thinking to build ventures like Henry AI, StrainSpotter.app, and GoneFishin Keychains.
MixedMakerShop is the umbrella. Under it live digital tools,
physical products, and experiments that might become the next tiny business.

Ventures by MixedMakerShop
The businesses that grew out of the workshop
MixedMakerShop is where everything starts. Some ideas stay as one-off projects; a few become their own named venture with a clear audience and purpose.
StrainSpotter.app
Active • iOS app
A private strain journal and scan-based tracker. Log sessions, scan jars and packaging, track effects, and spot patterns over time—without ads, accounts, or selling your data.
GoneFishin Keychains
Active • Physical
A line of vintage and new fishing lure keychains. A little tackle-box nostalgia you can carry every day—built from found lures and new creations.
What I make
3D prints, keychains, and tiny problem-solvers
At the center of MixedMakerShop is a 3D printer and a workbench. Apps and businesses are built on top of that same habit: take a real problem and make something that fits in a hand or on a screen.
New projects drop in here over time
Vintage fishing lure keychains
Real vintage and new lures turned into daily carry keychains. Each piece keeps the character of the original tackle but becomes something you'll actually use.
Desk-friendly 3D printed fidgets
Compact fidgets tuned for one-hand spins and flips during calls. Low-noise but high feel, designed to live next to your keyboard.
Cable anchors & desk organizers
Print-on-demand parts that keep USB-C cables, pens, and tools exactly where you expect them. Small geometry changes, big daily impact.
"Why does this not exist?" parts
Tiny adapters, spacers, and clips that solve oddly specific problems. Most of them start as a sketch, then become a shareable STL.
Services
Ways people can work with MixedMakerShop
Beyond my own ventures, I help people get their ideas into the world with custom 3D printing, design help, and small-venture prototyping.
Custom 3D printing
Send a model, share an idea, or point at a problem. I'll help you turn it into a printable object and a physical thing that works in your real world.
- Print from your STL or model
- Material + color recommendations
- Iteration on fit & function
Designing fixes, fidgets & keychains
When something doesn't exist yet—especially tiny helpers, fidgets, or keychains—I design and prototype it from scratch.
- Problem-first design
- Parametric CAD models
- Optimized for FDM printing
Venture prototyping
Some ideas want to be more than a single object or script. I help prototype the product and think about it as a focused tiny business, like Henry AI or StrainSpotter.app.
- Concept → prototype → version 1
- Lightweight branding & naming
- Simple landing pages & flows
Journal
Behind the prints, apps & keychains
This is the devlog: 3D printing notes, Henry AI and StrainSpotter experiments, and how GoneFishin Keychains went from a fun idea to a real product line.
Henry AI
Studio notes
Designing digital tools like physical objects
I treat Henry AI tools the way I treat prints: they start as a specific problem, go through a rough first draft, then get sanded down until they feel satisfying to use every day.

Build log
From one-off ideas to named ventures
StrainSpotter.app and GoneFishin Keychains both started as personal projects. The turning point was realizing they deserved their own names, audiences, and workflows instead of staying in a "misc experiments" folder.
About
What MixedMakerShop actually is
It's not just a shop. It's the umbrella for everything I'm building: 3D printed objects, Henry AI, StrainSpotter.app, GoneFishin Keychains, and whatever comes next.
MixedMakerShop started as a place to put all the projects that didn't fit anywhere else: a useful print here, a clever script there, a keychain idea that felt too fun to ignore. Over time, patterns showed up—some of those projects wanted to be real products or tools.
Instead of scattering them across random sites, I treat MixedMakerShop as the studio and umbrella. When a project wants to become a venture—like Henry AI, StrainSpotter.app, or GoneFishin Keychains—it still lives under this roof. That keeps everything connected: the 3D printing, the code, the physical and digital systems.
This site is here to show that whole picture: what I'm making, why I'm making it, and how small experiments turn into things you can actually hold, use, or build a business around.
