12 years landscape equipment tech. Everything from ZTR's to Weed eaters. Started working on my A&P, but realized that the market does not pay much more than working on lawn mowers. Now I am working in a Snickers plant. We make Skittles, Starburst, Snickers, and Almond Snickers.

We just finished an installation of one of our smaller CNC Milling Machines. This one has a 6000 Lb capacity and a 4 pallet automatic work changer. The spindle delivers 40 horsepower for taking huge cuts in alloy steel. The workpiece is the blank steel shaft behind me and weighs 690 pounds before we start cuttin on it. I love this job!

I'm a computer programmer. Got my BS and MS in Software Engineering from Florida Institute of Technology (FIT). Before that I worked in an IT/Sys Admin position with an accounting firm. Now I write code for a company that delivers online training to the US Army reserves, among others. Keeping up with computer hardware is a hobby, I can spec & build 'em from scratch. If its 'computer stuff' I my be able to help you.
