I admire your work.

My Dad talked me into meeting a tool maker friend of his from Hewlett Packard when I was 15. He convinced me to go to a Vo-Tech school during High School half days for two years for machining. I got a job at 17 in a sweat shop running screw machines until I went into the Marines at 19.

At 23 I was discharged went back to the Vo-Tech learned CNC got a good job, one thing lead to another, I spent 20 years as a tool maker, mold maker, etc.

Then my knees gave out standing on concrete so I went back to school.

Damn I miss Bridgeports, Laguns, Clausings, EDM's, Stereolithography, etc.

I now sit on my ass and manage a WAN, boring SH**

Anyhow I am rambling, awesome work Aaron, thanks for sharing it with us...

Joe
