Area of Interest

I'm interested in the intersection of human and computer systems. As a result I'm drawn to those parts of a project that have human collaborative aspects.

My open-source work has mostly centered around CNC machining and g-code generation (CAM)

Projects

I work on "Path" - FreeCADs CNC/CAM workbench.

I also coordinate with other developers and projects that provide tools and libraries related to gcode generation.
OpenCAMlib
OpenVoronoi
LinuxCNC
Machinekit

Video

I do occasional video tutorials on YouTube

Books & Articles

I've written a couple books about FreeCAD.
I occasionally contribute to Digital Machinist magazine.
