*Here is a collection of pictures that showcase many of the strange creations and inventions that are produced at Rizatek.
.:::circuit bending:::.
Most of the circuit bending I do is purely a hobby and for the love of taking things apart. I do, however, custom make Rizatek Talk Boxes by special order. Please message me through the Links section for more details.
.:::studio furniture:::.
I am also taking orders for 100% customizable studio furniture (ie. custom rack units, shelving, guitar racks, keyboard stands).
.:::custom boxes:::.
...and 100% customizable cases for gear and circuit bending (ie. guitar pedals, hand built synths, circuit housing) with your choice of sizing, pre-drilled holes, building material and finishes.
.:::rizatek singing bowls:::.
And last, as a teaser, the bowls you see are "Rizatek Singing Bowls". Each bowl is tuned to a different note that rings long and true when struck. Every individual bowl is very unique in sight and sound, and offers organic, hypnotic and meditative qualities. Pre-order bowls are encouraged because they are hand made specifically with the buyer in mind. Again, please feel free to contact me through the Links page for any inquiries.
.:::hand forged:::.
.:::rizatek custom bikes:::.
There is something extremely satisfying about untangling an old rusty bike out of years of dried out vines, that was virtually left to rot away to be forgotten forever, only to rescue it with a good sandblasting and a coat of paint. It's amazing what some steel wool and a little grease can do. Almost every bike I've built has a refurbished part on it that was rescued from ending up in a landfill. After sandblasting the fame, I add or remove braze-ons, prime and paint the frame and fork. Next I clean, refurbish, and rebuild or replace all parts being used on the build (ie. hubs, bottom bracket, headset, brakes, etc). Then true the wheels and start building. I usually finish a build with a new chain, new tubes and new tires.
