▼ Questions & Answers ▼
Q) How do you know Mike passed away?
A) I attempted to contact him at all his business emails and phone #'s for over a year and his personal phone # was disconnected a few months after I received his last email and his email address expired. He hasn't posted a single thing to social media, linked-in, etc in that time and he was previously very active. I can only assume that he passed away since he had complications with surgery. I do honestly hope that he is still alive but after all the searching and research I've done since 2014 to try and contact him or a family member with no success I'm reasonably confident he didn't make it. If by some miracle he is still alive though I hope he reaches out to me and lets me know he's okay since that would make my day!

Q) Thomr.com does not work? What gives?
A) I just told him he needs to put something up there and he's working on it. Stay tuned!

Q) Why aluminum and not steel?
A) Aluminum is easier to mill and also is better for transferring vibration and looks amazing polished!

Q) How did you find Thom?
A) We were in the same Facebook group of laid off Microsoft employee's and we both became aware of each others projects and things went from there. We talked for a few weeks prior to meeting in person via DM's on Facebook.
