Machine Shop
I've been an amateur machinist since 2001. I got my first taste of Tap Magic at USF SAE. Ask me about the lathe I bought. I also TIG and MIG weld all types of metals, steel, aluminum and recently cast iron.
Recent and Ongoing Projects
Tap Handles (On going)
I build custom Tap Handles (Faucet handles) for beer and other beverages. Typically out of wood, either blanks cut on the Shopbot that will have UV DTF Stickers applied or laser etched wood with various fills. I finish them with a glue in or screw in threaded section for common beer faucet threads.
Amatuer Radio Antenna Build Night (2026)
I hosted a DIY antenna build party with the Chaos Koalas group in 2026. We built simple Ground Plane UHF antennas using steel wire and SO-239 adapters. Then we tuned them using a NanoVNA.
