Quick status update

I see I haven't posted anything here in almost two years. It's not that I haven't worked on any interesting projects; I'm just really bad about taking the time to write about what I have done.

Since my last post here I've moved from New York to Arizona, bought an old car that has required far too much repair work, and bought a house which has also required a lot of work. Much of my time has been consumed in moving across the country, car repairs, and house repairs.

I did take some vacation time this year to go first to the Maker Faire in San Mateo, and later to Burning Man. It's the first time I've been to either of those events, and I think they're both very inspiring for people who like to build and create stuff for themselves.

My largest project that I've completed lately is to build a recumbent tadpole trike based on plans from Atomic Zombie. I've never done any kind of bicycle work before, so I'm pleased that I managed to create a working contraption. I plan to write a more complete post about that, but I have one picture here:


I just created a Google+ account (https://plus.google.com/102429887004109052348), but I may be as bad at updating that as I am at posting to the blog here.
