I recently searched for a
carrying case for my new DJI
Mavic Air Drone. I wanted
to be able to carry
everything I needed to go on a
photo trip. Here are the
details on what I ended up with
and the modifications that I
needed to make to the case to
hold all my stuff. The
outcome is excellent and I got
exactly what I wanted! |

I recently got rid of my older
bigger CNC machine. I
wanted something that would
work for small hobby items that
I like to build. Small air
engines, magnetic floating
armatures, etc... I chose
to purchase a small Chinese CNC.
I recently completed adding home
and limit switches. I also
installed a cutting height puck
as well. |

For some time, I have been
flying the DJI Drones. I
started with the Phantom 3, went
to the Phantom 4 and now am in
the process of moving over to
the Mavic Air, just released a
couple of months ago. Here
is a study I did of the
various signals and their
relationship to each other in
the P3 and P4.
Interference between the Drone,
your Phone or Tablet may cause
erratic behavior and even
crashes, if you are not careful.
Follow along as I discuss he
various parameters that are
involved. I do plan on
doing a study on the Mavic Air
in the near future, as it uses a
different combination of
signals.

I do all my CNC machining using Mach3 as the program that controls my CNC Machine. I have designed several screens that meet my needs for 2.5D CNC machining. My Z Zero and X-Y position finding routines make it really easy to locate your cutting tool exactly where it needs to be at the start of the cut.

I have a small Harbour Freight Mini Lathe. I added Digital Read Outs to make it easier to turn material and drill to depth easier. You can see the details of how I built the mounting brackets and put it all together here.

I use CamBam, a CAD/CAM program to do a lot of my drawings for parts that I am going to machine. Here you can download a help file that is an index PDF where you can look up items in the help file for using the program. Very handy, if you are a CamBam user.

When I have nothing better to do, I do a lot of Electronic Test Gear repair. I buy and sell it on eBay, giving others an opportunity to have some really great older test gear at a reasonable cost. Gives me one more thing to keep me busy!
