Ben Manning

I build, repair, and customize the systems I use, from Linux desktop tools to the electronics and mechanics of a 350 mm Voron printer. These projects document the problems I encounter, the changes I make, and what I learn along the way.

Featured projects

Touchscreen screenshot selection and automatic night-light control for my Linux laptop. Includes a focused patch to slurp, a Python service, a QML control widget, and installation scripts.

I wanted to tap a window or drag a screenshot region with my finger, and have the display adjust its warmth around sunrise and sunset.

My 350 mm Voron 2.4r2: CAN-connected electronics, eddy-current probing, hardware repairs, and mechanical and thermal improvements. The build notes explain what's installed, what I've changed, and what's going into the rebuild.

In progress: hardware documentation and the upgrade roadmap are available now. Configuration files and photos will follow when I'm back at the printer.

Open-source contribution

OpenWiki — merged pull request #435: clarified how personal/local-wiki mode handles repository agent instruction files when inspecting repositories as evidence.

Other work

  • Homelab: documentation is in progress.
  • JetKVM MCP experiment: an archived Go MCP server exploring remote KVM observation and control. This is a historical prototype and is no longer maintained.
  • Earlier Voron configuration: archived configuration history, separate from the current build.
