man where do i even start been a busy month or two...my wife and i decided to do a trip to utah for little over a week. shes always wanted to see Zion and Grand Stair case. So i hustled to get the tundra ready for our trip. Had to do a few things: finish wiring Switch pro, finish dual battery setup, finish wiring of led lights. wire ARB fridge, and install some usb chargers.


Everything i do on this truck has served a purpose, although i love colors and a nice set of wheels, i am all about functional things on the truck.
One of which being the rear tail gate table! best mod i have done yet... also going to copy Dave a bit with the tailgate storage...

The trekker had pink flamingo and a beach umbrella, I think you should some how temporarily mount that sweet ass globe on the hood of the tundra for wheeling trips. You'd always know how to get where your going, even when your phone dies...

maybe not the globe, but i am dubbing it "thecouch" and will be getting a license plate for that, but as far as random things mounted to it...i havent decided what i want to do yet lol... the Flamingo was in the contract for the trekker though.

 Well i have been MIA because life has been handing me curve balls left and right..At the beginning of October we got a 60 day notice to move out, so that means we had to find a place to move my shop and house.. a few weeks ago some Investigators came by my house saying i was doing illigeal things via the interwbs..and the DMV was involved.. turns out my old neighbor.. who was sketchy as heck was the cause of this.. so thats no long an issue.. def was a stressful few days though.
Finally got to start working and finishing up this Tacoma,

Got a job with a civil engineering company to build these brackets for some Total Stations.. that go in the bart tunnels in the city of SF..







blahhhhhhh

Man im so far behind in life...

I don’t even know where to start to update everything.  I guess i can start with the move, about 12 months ago the house we were in got sold and we lived in fear of being booted, It eventually happened so the wife and I moved. It was a great move though because we got to move into a way prettier spot and i love where we live now!
A nice veiw over looking our front yard...


Due to the move i had to down size a bit in shop size.. i looked and looked and looked for a better shop but its impossible to find something here in Santa Cruz County.
But its a good size garage and has a perfect drive way setup for me and we are in the “cuts”.

Since the move My It business really took off again, and i slowed down my Fabwork, because i didn’t have the time.. How ever at the beginning of the school year, I decided to take some Parametric Design classes.. Best thing i could have ever done! I really love Building stuff on the computer.. Its great because im taking the two things i do best in life.. computers and Fab and putting them together in one spot. So i stayed busy all winter with classes and work. Here is some random school work i was doing..

Starting last year i really started trying to get my business to be legit. Got incorporated, setup some dealers and so forth.. Although im not actively trying to sell a-lot.. i have ideas for products that i’m working on right now. 
Knowing CAD makes things a-lot easier to work on stuff..
