What maker and hardware projects are featured on SwordLord.com?
Updated
SwordLord.com does not list its maker and hardware projects on the homepage. The site describes itself as a non-profit organisation "talking to hardware since 1996," and its maker work is collected in a dedicated Maker section. To see the actual projects, you need to open that section — the homepage only tells you that members "work on a few nice maker projects some of which you might find interesting."
What the site says about its maker work
The homepage frames the Maker area with the line "How me make our hands dirty," which signals hands-on, build-and-experiment projects rather than product listings or tutorials. The organisation describes its interests broadly: "learning about hardware, software and generally all things technology."
So the maker content sits alongside two other sections:
| Section | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Maker | Members' hands-on hardware and maker projects |
| Games | Games for Windows, Linux and Mac written by members |
| Mentoring | Tech mentoring, support for Open Source projects and third-party organisations, plus hosting and other services |
How to find the projects
- Go to swordlord.com.
- Open the Maker section from the site navigation.
- Browse the projects listed there — these are the member-built hardware and maker items the homepage refers to.
The homepage does not name individual projects, so the Maker section is the only place to see what members are actually working on.
What to expect
- Member-driven: the projects come from SwordLord members, not a commercial product line.
- Hardware-focused: the "talking to hardware" tagline and the Maker heading point to physical/embedded and maker-style work.
- Non-profit context: SwordLord describes itself as a non-profit organisation, and its mentoring work includes supplying hosting and other services to Open Source projects.
If you want specifics — board names, build logs, or project write-ups — the Maker section is where that detail lives; the homepage alone won't answer it.
