Wooden Fishing Rod Holders
After freehand-sketching a model on Fusion, I CNCed these fishing rod holders. I then use the roter to curve the edges for a nicer finish.

Featured Project
Cleaned Trout Plasma Cut & Welded Art Stand
This project combined two other projects to create neat room art. I cleaned up trout plasma cut with grinder and sprayed coating. Used T-Weld to create a stand for the trout cut-out.
Other Projects
Weld Art
After gaining some confidence with MIG welding, I attempted to make an art piece out of scrap metal where I use multiple weld angles. I sand blasted and grinded the scrap metal.
Completed: October 2025
First Mig T-Weld
After some practice with MIG welding, tried doing a T-Weld to create a miniature stand for other projects. Welds came out well and strong.
Completed: October 2025
First MIG Welds
First time MIG welding on 16 gauge steel. Practiced using a swirling technique and correct speed/distance to create useful beads.
Completed: October 2025
Plasma Cut Trout
This project involved translating a 2D image into a vector-based sketch using Fusion 360. The design was then programmed via CAM to control a plasma cutter, resulting in a precise metal art piece. It showcases skills in digital design, manufacturing processes, and machine operation.
Completed: September 2025
3D Printed Flywheel
CADed 3D printed Flywheel used as a large scale model of future prototypes for engines and other projects.
Completed: August 2025
Surfboard Holders
A practical project to organize and display surfboards. Designed and installed custom wall-mounted holders using hand-tools.
Completed: January 2025
3D Printed Crossbow
An interactive 3D print that incorporates spring mechanics and string tension to create a functional, projectile-launching model.
Completed: December 2024
Video Game Knife Replica
Created a 3D printed replica of a video game knife, featuring a synthetic rope handle wrap for an authentic look and feel.
Completed: December 2024
Articulated Snake 3D Print
An intermediate, multi-part 3D print designed with articulated joints to allow for realistic, snake-like movement.
Completed: November 2024
Lucky Cat 3D Print
Our first project using a Creality 3D printer. A quick and simple print to learn the basics of slicing and machine operation.
Completed: October 2024
PVC Fishing Rod Holders
A cheap and effective solution to keep fishing rods out of the sand and water at the beach, constructed from PVC pipes.
Completed: September 2024
