Add “ART” and Stir It Up— Re-Branding

I’m doing a little tweek to this blog site and my overall business look, etc.  I’m adding “ART” to the the name and web site.  After doing minimal “googling” of “pilot valve” and “pilot valve art” it would appear that search results for my work vastly improves by adding “ART”.  So there you have it.  I’m an artist and I’m sticking to it. Many thanks to my tech support–Jeff and Ben.

The Bangles

Took a class on soldering. I spent more time trying to shape these bangle bracelets than I did soldering!

Maker Faire 2014

Once again I’m playing catch up on my events.  I was a vendor at the Maker Faire Kansas City-June 28 & 29.  For those of you not familiar with this event, it’s organized by the the people who put out the “Make” magazine. The event is full of people who are passionate about science/engineering/hacking/making. Amongst all the participants on all levels there are robot agility competitions (high school teams), make-up special effect creators, sci-fi cos play, electric cars, and 3D printers are EVERYWHERE! As usual, a fun event. I was located in the “Made in Kansas City” room. The makers/inventors/artists were amazing. Great crowds. I honored with (2) blue ribbons as a “Maker of Merit”. Thank you Maker Faire!!!
