About Rob Amey

My career has dealt with many devices, and machines that are electronic, mechanical. and electrical. I have been doing this type of work for 24 years. My original formal training was in electronics. I have worked with a milling machine and lathe both as a hobby and on the job for the past 7 years. I'm currently enrolled at Joliet Junior College in the Manufacturing Technology Program. See education section for current details. I just received a scholarship from SME (Society of Manufacturing Engineers) on 01/12/11Specialties: In general I do electronic and mechanical. In the early part of my career I would work on or repair electronics as a hobby. Later I found the demand for fabricating and machining was high. I became experienced in this area, but can still do electronics when needed. My career has shifted to being a CNC Machinist. I do have some formal training and experience in this area.
