• I design, build, and document open-source hardware, robotics, and digital fabrication projects for a global community of over 330,000+ engineers, makers, and developers.
• What started in 2016 as sharing DIY projects on Instructables has evolved into full-scale engineering education across two major YouTube channels, focusing heavily on embedded systems, CNC machining, computer vision, and AI robotics.
• Core Channels & Reach:
• Nikodem Bartnik (English | 236K+ Subscribers): Focused on deep-tech builds, open-source hardware engineering, and advanced DIY mechanics.
• Proste Części (Polish | 42K+ Subscribers): Focused on making engineering, electronics, and tech accessible to Polish developers and makers.
• Cross-Platform Engagement: Active technical content distribution across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook in Poland.
• Key Engineering & Open-Source Highlights:
• Dremel CNC & IndyMill CNC: Designed, engineered, and published fully open-source, 3D-printed, and professional-grade desktop CNC machines. These projects have been duplicated by thousands of makers worldwide, requiring robust documentation and community support.
• Edge AI & Robotics: Built and integrated Arduino-based automation, computer vision, and custom robotic platforms, translating complex hardware-software integration into highly digestible technical media.
• Full-Stack Production: Manage the entire lifecycle of technical execution - from CAD design (Fusion), component sourcing, and PCB design, to programming, video production, and audience engagement.
• In 2019 I started my own company called Kreatywny Schron to continue expanding my work with bigger projects, digital/physical products and partner with brands.
