08/10/2011 Where does the time go? I've been watching the net for a Fly Press for a long time and recently one showed up on Craig's List in Gilroy. Learn what one is and what it takes to move, clean, repaint, and re-assemble one. If you are impatient and just want to see it doing something, click here to see a video of pressing studs from a wheel hub, or here to see a video of it crushing a steel paint can.

04/27/2011 Another long gap, I've been busy. Turns out I haven't mentioned much about blacksmithing so I've added a page about my new forge.

11/06/2010 Ok, so they are long overdue, here are some pictures from the Reno Air Races for 2010. In my defense, I've been a bit busy and it takes a while to sort through over 1700 pictures. This year I saw George Giboney survive what some would call a rough landing. After calling a "Mayday" he was attempting to land in the very strong and gusty crosswind. The pictures tell the story. I hope to never take pictures like that again.

10/27/2010 I did it! My limited edition print project is launched on KickStarter! Please go check it out. If you think it is moderately nifty please tell everyone you know about it. You can see all the prints available here.
