Fabrication Portfolio

My portfolio of work when it comes to fabrication & building is very diverse from varying points of life. It covers everything from carpentry to finesse electrical & programming. Below is a description of some projects I’ve done, final product & some progress images where I had them in my library.

Timelapse Motion Control Jib-

This was created to get a specific shot for a commercial film I was working on. To create this I took an existing camera motion control device meant for camera sliders & adapted it to work with my camera jib. I had to make custom brackets which needed precision cuts to ensure things lined up correctly. I ended up liking the result and evaluated what it would take to bring this to market. This project included the use of 3d printing, CNC machining, prototyping & more.

Camper Van-

My camper van was an incredible feat to create stemming from losing my housing during peak covid in 2020. The entire process took 6 weeks and approximately 300 hours for the initial build. I put in approximately 100 more hours tweaking it as I lived out of the van for the following 2 years. It was built as a nomadic home & photo/video production studio including 600 watts of solar, 300ah of lithium batteries, AC & DC power distributed throughout the camper, multiple types of lighting, and custom cabinetry to fit specific needs/the space. This project involved carpentry, electrical, 3d printing, sewing, 8020 extruded aluminum and welding.

Immersive Art Installation-

In 2021 & 2022, I was part of a team that built an isolated room in a warehouse which would become the home for Locus Immersive. Initially we built walls, doors, and ran a completely isolated electrical system w/ sub-panel from the building’s main feed. Then I was also part of a smaller crew which installed & re-programmed the first guest experience which is a 20 minute long show including video projection, lasers, haze, water pumps, and moving objects. My responsibilities in this portion were to ensure all the physical components were set up properly, and then re-program the lasers & video projection (which included 3d mapped elements). I was also a part of early stage prototyping for a larger future show, but this was shelved until funding is secured to really develop the larger concept. This project involved carpentry, electrical, use of large equipment (scissor lifts, fork lifts) computer programming, welding, and much more.

TV Stand & Coffee Table-

Upon moving into my own place in Salt Lake City, I couldn’t find a coffee table or TV stand that fit the space & my style. So i built my own from MDF core plywood & steel. All cuts were made by hand with a circular saw (including the weird angles for the coffee stand legs). This project included carpentry & welding.

Truck bed kitchen-

My most recent project was to make my new adventure rig ready for whatever I throw at it. The biggest nuisance to me camping has always been setting up & tearing down the kitchen stuff while camping… so I made a permanent home in my truck. This project included carpentry, welding & 3d printing.
