Cheers Everyone. My name is Jeffrey Matthias. Either the first or the last name work, so whatever you prefer.
I am a tinkerer, designer, and maker of all sorts of things. I am currently a senior in the Industrial Design program at Metropolitan State College of Denver. My focus is on Sustainable Design and Furniture, but I have a strong interest in vehicle design as well. I found my way here as I was doing research for a small displacement motorcycle design.
I am an (expired) ASE Certified Master Auto Technician. Mechanics life wasn't for me and I made the switch. I also hold a degree in Sculpture from Ohio State.
After finding this site, I followed a link from here to Derringer and realized that I need to build one for myself- with a few improvements of course.
I am also interested in amateur electronics and micro-controllers (mostly Arduino) and am always looking for ways to bring them into projects.
I have a website which is mostly devoted to furniture design, but where I give away some of my CNC furniture designs with a creative commons license. I am a big believer in giving my ideas away and if they're good enough, good things will happen.
I currently own a 1979 Vespa Rally 200 and at the moment have 5 bikes, which I use as my main source of transportation, although I also have an old Volvo for long distances.
I have a loving wife who helps me keep the number of running projects to a relatively low minimum.
Cheers.
