about me

During the weekdays I hold tolerences (in graphite/cooper electrodes) of +/- .0004 of an inch or .010mm on an easy stress free day. On 12+ surfaces, anywhere from 4-600 parts.
Week nights are spent testing the next wave of LAPD or Airport police officers. Or enjoying the music of So. Cal's indie music scene. random nights in Santa Monica on the Travelling Rings, hanging from my boot laces.
Weekends, on the road to SanDiego for more music, taking care of al those un things like laundry and cleaning up. Spending hours with the same group of crazy, attention loving, swingers and beach bums down at Santa Monica.

As long as I'm making something out of nothing I'm happy.

Speaking of human hair (blog entry) Today I just cut some steel using wire that is just a tad thinner than humain hair, or mine at least. The wire is charged with electricity and it vaporizes the metal around it.
Before that you have to thread it through the guides. Kinda like a s... read more

passing the time

For the past 2 and a half years i have enjoyed the music of an amazing person/musician. Well she finally made it. After years of playing shows whenever she could in small clubs bars, travelling alone on cross country tours. Staying ahead of trends and staying grounded to the people that found her music.
From the day I meet her she shifted my life in a new direction. Taking me places I never would have gone, meeting people that have become friends and business partners.
Tonight she played... read more

On my way....

So today is my birthday, it's very early morning and I'm scanning negatives and slides.
I ordered a new scanner last week and it arrived tuesday. Since then i have been trying to figure out certain settings to get the size right after i scan the image. I think I finally have a little more of a basic understanding of all this. I still have to play with color and contrast, you know all that fun stuff to get the picture just the way i need it.

The year is closing up and things are slowing... read more

dirty-dangerous

So I always knew how dangerous the enviroment I work in can be, i mean how can you not. From the day I started working around machines, some 14 years ago now, i have heard the horror stories. Guys getting scalped from running the drill press and having there hair caught. (the long hair days if the 70's and 80's) Fingers lopt off on the bandsaw, shirts getting ripped off and limbs geting pulled into the turning chuck of a lathe.

My style of dress has reflected this enviroment. My clothes w... read more

Speaking of human hair

Today I just cut some steel using wire that is just a tad thinner than humain hair, or mine at least. The wire is charged with electricity and it vaporizes the metal around it.
Before that you have to thread it through the guides. Kinda like a sewing machine i guess. the guide's hole is not much larger so it's like threading a needle. Guess my few years of cross stiching came in handy when the guy showing me how to set up the machine was having trouble getting the wire in the guide.
A min... read more

Vacation

I thrashed my body. I think i was suppossed to be resting this entire time, getting away from work. Turns out I just spent too much time at the beach working on new moves on the P-bars. Even extended a routine i have been working on. Now my whole body is sore.

I did however manage to get even more pictures for my Rings project. Seems like there are a few going around this year.
