About
Hi! Welcome to Make it, Break it, Fix it.
My name is Eddy and I am an engineer of the networking type. I work with large-scale computer networks. For those of you who understand the industry, I work mostly near the edge of the cloud and a few layers to the core on multi-continental WAN’s.
I am also a teacher where I teach various subjects within the Bachelor of Technology degree (network engineering and security).
On the side I work as a contractor building IoT and embedded devices.
As you may already know, working in I.T. involves sitting in front of the computer most of the day. In my spare time I like to get my hands dirty. This includes hobbyist electronics, mechanic works (mostly 2-stroke engines from motorbikes and boats), wood working, building, and welding.
I enjoy pulling things apart to see how they work, and modifying them to work better/differently.
I have created this site to record all the things I make, break and fix during my spare time. I hope you enjoy it and I look forward to hearing from you. If anything on my site helped you in any way, please comment and leave feedback.

Hi Eddy,
I noticed you created a script for virgin gym booking… my wife needs a script for her pilates class… could you email me if this is something you could create for her, what you need from us & how much it would cost?

Hi Nik. This isn’t something I can do for you but you can check out sites like Fiverr.com and find a programmer there.
