I taught myself everything I could from the reprap.org site and forums. During this time there were ZERO Youtube tutorials on 3D printing. I decided to document my project along the way, the good and a the bad. I am grateful those that backed the project and for the career it has led to so far. I will bring that passion and enthusiasm with me to any position. I love to learn new skills and understand how machines, systems, and people work. Show less
