My Hobbies

I like to tinker and create things when I have the time. This is the place where I will  post some things from time to time.

Metal Art

Designed in Adobe Illustrator, cut on a CNC plasma table, and powder coated. This is steel art. I started off selling at local craft shows before running an Amazon Seller and Etsy Marketplace account for a few years.

laser Art

The metal art was a great creative outlet and side income. But, after doing some research on CO2 laser engravers/cutters, I decided to dive right in. This was far more versatile and could not only personalize existing items but it can be used to create something entirely from scratch.

Dye Sublimation

I decided to extend the abilities of the CO2 laser and add an Epson F570 sublimation printer. Having the ability to cut custom blanks, usging the dye sublimation process is a great way to create items with more color! It’s as simple as design, cut, print, and  heatpress! It’s a great way to create physical products.

Wood Working

When I have spare time…which is rare…I enjoy a good wood working project. Whether it’s a shelf, a small piece of furniture, or a wall hanger, it’s a form of therapy. This piece started with MDF board and routed on a CNC router. The, cut out on a scroll saw and hand painted.
