Products
Scripts, configs, and guides from a real 2-node cluster. Tested on duct tape, shipped to you.

Incident Playbook: 10 Real Failures
10 real failure modes from a production 2-node cluster, with root cause analysis and step-by-step recovery procedures. DNS outages, disk failures, VPN breaks, NFS stalls, and more.
mergerfs + NFS Cross-Node Storage
Complete config templates for mergerfs pools spanning multiple nodes via NFS. Includes fstab entries, NFS exports, systemd dependencies, graceful degradation, and recovery scripts.
k3s 2-Node Cluster Setup Kit
Everything you need to stand up a 2-node k3s cluster from scratch. Control plane config, worker join, flannel networking, UFW rules, Longhorn storage, and the gotchas nobody warns you about.
Traefik + Let's Encrypt + Cloudflare
Reverse proxy setup with automatic HTTPS via DNS-01 challenge. HelmChartConfig, IngressRoute CRDs, HTTP-to-HTTPS redirect, multi-namespace routing, and certificate troubleshooting.

Encrypted nightly backups with age encryption, local + remote retention, Google Drive sync via rclone, multi-service database dumps, and staleness alerting. Set it and forget it.
Cluster Monitor + Discord Alerts
Cron-based monitoring that checks both nodes every 5 minutes. Disk mounts, NFS, k3s pods, HTTPS endpoints, VPN, backup freshness. State-change Discord alerts so you only hear about new problems.
USB Auto-Remount + NFS Recovery
Scripts that automatically detect and recover from USB drive disconnects and NFS mount failures. udev triggers, systemd timers, mergerfs rebuilds, and service restarts. The duct tape that holds it together.
Arr Stack k3s Manifests Bundle
Complete k3s deployment manifests for a media automation stack: Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, qBittorrent + Gluetun VPN, Jellyfin, Jellyseerr. Longhorn PVCs, resource limits, and node scheduling.
What Is This?
The Story
We run a 2-node homelab cluster that started as "just Docker on a Raspberry Pi" and evolved into a k3s cluster spanning a Pi 5 and an i7 desktop. Along the way, everything that could break did break. USB drives disconnected. NFS mounts went stale. VPNs died silently. DNS stopped resolving. Longhorn webhooks deadlocked the cluster on boot.
Every product in this shop was born from a real failure and a real fix. We document the journey — from duct tape to bulletproof — and sell the scripts and configs that got us there.
