A Formlabs Form 2 3D printer, mostly for printing wax jewellery pieces
An Axidraw V3/A3 pen plotter, mostly for fun, who am I kidding
3 kilns; a tiny furnace for melting metal, a Skutt Firebox 8 for fused glasswork, and a chunky Paragon W13 for lost wax casting
A Gryphon wet belt sander for glass, maybe my messiest and most crude machine, but I have a such a soft spot for it
A Sievert Pro 86 torch and a tank of propane for soldering
A Spa Plating tank electroplating kit

Design

Currently I'm experimenting with generative art jigsaw puzzles at @abstractpuzzles on Instagram, and am working on a new business which crafts memorial jewellery out of ashes and glass (odd, but cool).
