I am an Embedded Software Engineer by trade, but I'm an Electrical Engineer by education. I have many product life cycles under my belt. As a hobbyist I built my first CNC machine from MDF and threaded rods from Home Depot about 18 years ago. Since that time I have built a much more precise CNC machine based off of a recycled LPKF machine and it utilizes the EMC open sourced controller.. With this machine I have built several guitars and many other things. I dove into additive in 2017 and built a Tronxy X5S kit. I am also a skilled machinist and welder. My interest cover a wide range....Mechanical, Old car restorations, Ham Radio, Bicycling, Algorithm development, guitar building. electronics, etc... Specialization is for Insects!
