Coat Rack: Resin cast knobs that are from my classic mustang. A groove is cut on the backside of the board to hold letters. Magnets are inserted from the back to hold keys and pens.
Atlanta MARTA Shirts: I designed and sold these shirts in Atlanta for about 5 years at beer festivals as a side gig. Mannequins designed by me and cut on my buddy's CNC.
Ladder: I constructed this ladder to access the HVAC & water heater in my old loft.
Coin Dispenser: I own a vintage Mrs. Pacman machine and I needed a way to dispense coins easily. The feet have suction cups on the bottom that stick to the glass top.
Range Hood: This was apart of a studio project in school. Learned how to weld, use a plasma gun, and bend sheet metal.
Cast Concrete Furniture: A buddy and I experimented with making furniture from concrete. Our results varied!
Sliding Barn Door: Constructed from pine lumber and painted white. Tracking system and rolling hardware were challenging but very happy with the result. Allows us to have privacy in the second story of our home when we have guests.
Giant Corn Dogs: War Eagle!
Prototype Gang Box: I built the right prototype to test sizes and features with construction workers before a steel prototype was built. This allowed us to test easily and move items around based on feedback.
