Manufacturing Is For Everyone!

About Me

You might think that manufacturing is something that is only meant for multinational companies mass-producing consumer products. But there is no reason why you can't manufacture the things that you use everyday yourself with a little know-how. My name is Bob Christiansen I consider myself to be a friendly, neighborhood manufacturer. I make all sorts of things for my neighbors whenever they ask. But I always felt that there was a lack of information for hobbyists like myself, so I had to learn much of what I know by trial and error and from blogs like this one. This blog is my way to give back to the community of tinkerers and fabricators.
