Scares & Sparks
I'm a professional electronics engineer and electro-mechanical hacker.
I love to build props and like to focus on making them low-cost rather than buying expensive stuff and then fiddling with it.
I'm based in California but I'm originally from the UK. I love Halloween as I can be creative while enjoying the macabre!
