== My Skills ==

Feel free to ask me about any of these topics.

* '''Troubleshooter''' - I was a consultant for many years as a person who could identify root cause issues. I'm able to troubleshoot problems even in areas outside of my expertise by interfacing with the engineers who have the expertise
* '''Woodworking''' - Owning The Sawdust Shop turned me into a master craftsman.
* '''3D Printing''' - I own a Prusa Mk3 and have created and printed hundreds of items for use around my home and in my maker projects
* '''Laser Engraving''' - I loaned my Epilog Laser to Maker Nexus, so have a lot of experience with it
* '''Electronics''' - I've forgotten a lot but can still do a pretty good job designing circuits
* '''Arduino''' - I'm an intermediate Arduino user
* '''MySQL''' - I've used MySQL a lot for web sites that I have designed.
* '''Programming''' - Proficient in Assembly language, C, Python, and a dozen obscure languages that no one uses anymore (Pascal, Modula 2...)
* '''Website backend design''' - I can't make a web page look pretty but am very good at making it talk to a database.
* '''Photography''' - I teach classes in photography and photo editing using Photoshop and Lightroom
* '''Fusion360''' - I have a good handle on how to use Fusion360 to make design pretty much any 3D part or woodworking project

== My Projects at Maker Nexus ==

I like projects that use multiple disiplines, and for some reason started making unusual clocks. Most require 3D printing, woodworking, electronics and programming. Here are links to a few I've finished.
