Mechanical Engineer at a place some of you machinist folks may know: Davenport Machine.
Pretty much doing some CAD and R&D on the screw machines we build + sell.

Hoping to make my way into bombardier or possibly something just as interesting like Traxxas (designing RC cars). I could move north to canada, but not so sure I'd be willing to move on down to Plano though.

I'm 18 so I'm fairly new to the workworld. I just started working in the wash bay at a heavy equipment sales and rental outfit. In a few months I should be starting my heavy duty mechanic apprenticeship there. I would be started as an apprentice but the last place I worked at jerked me around and had terrible shop conditions.
Oh and maybe one day I'd like to become a luthier (build custom guitars and fix them at the same time).

Hey ya'll I am new here and I'm just going to jump right in. I am an electrical/mechanical technician (power generators, industrial automation)
I am fairly new to the Cummins engine and I love that diesel power. 96 dodge 12V could use any help you guys could give on adding power.

I'm actually from Nicklesville Va but I work in Kingsport at Eastman. I'm an Electrical Engineer for them, but I have previous experience as an Industrial Electrician and as a Commercial Electrician.
I saw where you work with power generation. Where do you work at? Power generation is always one of my favorite things!
