Hey, I'm Steve. I enjoy designing and building all manner of things, especially out of wood. This blog is to keep track some of the projects I plan to build so you can see how I've done it. While I focus mostly on original designs in the steampunk/industrial/furniture "genre", there is a good chance I'll be throwing in a replica or modification of an existing design every so often. I also gear most of my props towards a LARP, or Live Action Role Play setting. This will somethings dictate the materials I use due to safety, and also means some of these projects will be costume use only, since they won't receive heavy abuse. (at least they shouldn't)
Just starting the second week of college courses here. Since I have a fairly light load of 16 credits this semester, I plan to make the most of my time on campus. My primary goal is to use the school shop as much as possible, as I have access to a lathe, 3 axis knee mill, and some light duty CNC machines. I also have extremely limited access to a rapid prototyping machine, or 3D printer. I've got some really cool projects floating around my head, and this will be the perfect opportunity for me to have some fun, work on some portfolio pieces, and explore the machines.
It should be a fun semester, hope you find some of these projects interesting.
