Prototype Machine - Front View - Designed and built Prototype Machine as a proof-of-concept for the manufacturing of ultra-high precision composite tubing. Produced tubing with tolerances that were ten times tighter than any other manufacturing process (straightness tolerance of +/- .001/ft and concentric tolerance of +/- .0005). While still being both cheaper and faster to produce.

Composite Tubing Prototype Machine

Developed and built prototype machine for the manufacture of composite tubing for products such as golf shafts, ski poles, and pool cues. Part tolerances were ten times tighter than any other process.
