I am a PhD engineer and research scientist. I grew up woodworking with my dad and really love it. Now that I own my own house and have some space, I decided to start building my own shop. I also decided to try and meld my traditional woodworking knowledge with 21st century technology. I am in the midst of building a CNC router system and last year I build a cnc laser. I am also in the middle of setting up my shop. I plan to produce some items I can try to sell and produce top quality, limited edition kinetic sculptures.
