Designs are almost complete for my NASA jewelry line. Limited run of 50 to 250. After that I move on to something else. :)

Cornice, Box and Pan Brake

Adaptive reuse of two 1000W server power supplies. They no longer work in the server room ( funky intermittent errors ), but both power on. Besides, I like the form factor and current quality. Will be using Arduino and potentiometers from damaged battery powered hand tools.

Part of 10,000 gal rainwater harvesting project.

Cistern bench. Japanese aesthetic in play: Aware. Spelled like conscious, but pronounced with 3 syllables. ‘Ah Wah Rey’ A nostalgic feeling for the past, expressed formally in the regular Shinto Religion EG the rebuilding of temples with new materials matching those centuries old.

Arduino powered LED proximity responsive lighting tech.

The problem with accent lighting is that there's too damn much of it most of the time. Vegas never shuts off, nor should it. Who wants Vegas Strip lighting in their neighborhood or back yard?

Materials:

• Stainless + Milk Glass + Anodized Aluminum

Materials palette:

• Polished concrete
• Stainless
• Glass
• Love

Milk frother plastic cap just cracked. We use everyday and replacement parts are stupid expensive. Gonna make an improved version ( that won't leak) with some scrap stainless and clear polycarbonate. Just for fun.

Metal articulated staff project. Part of heavy weapon training for UCB Program students.

A battery powered machinist level made for feel.
