I have been voiding warranties for decades. I founded the first US team to appear on Junkyard Wars (Scrapheap Challenge). I work mostly in metal, and at large scales. I lead team building events that have people taking up tools and solving problems mechanically. I am a builder of catapults for competition and film.
