For some time, I have contemplated adding some of my other projects to this website.  My drive to create has not started or will end with the jPod.  I enjoy making all sorts of things and usually have more than one project going at the same time.  Sometimes my projects can be seen (like the jPod, china hutches, etc) and other times they must be listened to.  My music studio is another passion area for me but I cannot (for copyright reasons) post that work here (visit Paper Astronomers as an example of a band I have worked with).

I blame my creative drive on my grandfather who was a farmer, inventor, and an “arms dealer” (he made prosthetics). My dad is an engineer & creative as well.  So I come by it honestly.  This may also be why I rarely, if ever, use patterns.  I like to develop my own as part of the challenge.

Some of my projects are more glamorous than others.  I plan to add to this page as time allows and as the projects develop.
