One of the founders of Nottinghack - "If we build it, they will come!"
To be honest I'm a bit grumpy and not always keen to chat. I'll work on that... a bit. Probably.

A 2020 Update
Most of this page was written in about 2012 or 2013 and is horribly out-of-date. You can find my current blog and other info here:
- Bricolage.run My blog which also has some Podcasts I recorded on it here
- Smoke & Mirrors, my laser cutter repair and sales business
- it's associated forum for laser cutter questions
- and my companies You Tube Channel which I'm trying to improve and expand
When I write, I write a lot about the theory of hackerspaces (I don't use the term Hackspace anymore because its too specific). I like the idea of a Hackerspace Architect, someone who oversees a space holistically to give it a cohesive flavour. I am very much a fan of:
- Tom Sach and videos by Van Neistat for Tom Sachs one day I'd like to make a Hackerspace equivalent of 10 Bullets.
I didn't do the above link quite right! Maybe a WikiPixie will fix it?
