I've been building things for as long as I can remember. It all started when my dad exposed me to plastic model building and soldering when I was around 4 years old. That set me on a path to building increasingly complex things and becoming an engineer. My goal is to do the same for as many people as possible by exposing them to the joy of engineering, fabricating and creating things out of nothing. If I'm lucky a few people may become engineers, which would be great for the world. Engineering is awesome. If you're interested in sending me something: P.O. Box 78470 Charlotte, NC 28271

Current worlds smallest bike by Sergey Dashevsky: https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/570841-smallest-rideable-bicycle
I love bikes. I decided I wanted to make a very small bike. Shenanigans and self one-up-manship ensued.

I thought this would be an easy project to knock off my list after putting myself through the wringer with the automatic basketball hoop. I was wrong. This project is really hard. BUT that also makes it really interesting!

I've known this was the endgame for the robotic basketball hoop ever since I made the first one. It's time I actually did it.

I moved into a new shop with some massive blank walls. I thought I would break in the new space by building a robot to paint a huge mural for me. Hope you like it!
