Although I went to the College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland I never really did much with what I learned until I got into the machinest trade . In the early 70's I made many custom knives and buckles and bracelets. In the mid eighties I went into business for myself in the machine shop business. Now I have relocated to Lake County and would like to try to use the experience I gained in the machine shop business to do more artistic types of projects. Life is too short to spend it doing something you are not passionate about. I still have a very complete machine and welding shop and would be interested in some collaborations of mutual interest. I am especially interested in functional art primarily in metal,stone wood or other materials. Please feel free to contact me If our interest could possibly coincide.; http://
