Wind Powered Wind Generator


This converts the energy that is captured by the top fins into the fan that is on the side. It is made of steel, nylon, plexiglas.

Camera Obscura



This is my version of a camera obscura. It is made out all poplar. The inside is lined with felt. The lens projects on a viewing screen which can slide forward if you need more room when crawling inside. The bench that is inside also folds up so that you can enter. 3' Tall x 4' Long x 2.5' Wide.

Steel Worker and Lunch



This is me wearing the costume and having lunch on some railroad tracks.

Steel Worker




This is a costume that I made for my Performance Garment class. I modeled it after a late 19th century steel worker. The pants are denim, the shirts are machine knitted; one is cotton and the other is rayon/flax. The suspenders are duck cloth and the buttons are red oak and the tensioners are steel.

Plumb Bob 2



Here is the second plumb bob that I have made. This one is made of stainless steel. It's about 3" in diameter and about 5" long. It weighs roughly 8lbs.

Plumb Bob



This plumb bob is made of carbon steel. It was made from a 2" diameter rod and is about 3" long.
The first image is of the metal before I finished it. It is still in the lathe which is what I used to make the bob.

Tube Thingy


I made this on a knitting machine with acrylic yarn.

Steel Box Project



This box was for my metal fabrication class. The project was to make a 6" box and then alter it. The bottom part of this is just a stand. The box comes out has a handle.
