Hi All,
I was watching Nova:Science Now on PBS (in place of Norm). The episode was about the "planethood" of Pluto. They also went into detail about the person who discovered Pluto. He was a farm kid who made his own telescopes from farm machinery, car parts, lawnmowers, ect. I am also a farm kid who was taught to "tinker". The project that I made that is the apple of my eye is the self made CNC machine that is the "crown jewel" of my shop. I would like to invite everybody to share their story about their engineering feats in the shop. If nobody objects I will post a link to video of my machine at work in a future post.
I understand that some of these ideas may be potentially patented so if you have to be vague, please do so.
