Hi, everybody! My name is Cameron!

I'm a software engineer working at a biomedical non-profit in the Seattle, WA area and coding mostly in #dotnet. I am passionate about helping and learning from others in tech, so please feel free to reach out!

I am also a #hamradio operator and like to tinker with packet radio such as #aprs.

In my spare time, I enjoy hanging out with my dog, cycling, sailing, soccer, and the occasional video game.

Looking forward to meeting folks!

@cbielstein It's going well, but not great at the moment. I've been ill, but using the down time when I have the energy to try some new 3D print projects. Also, Cheap Trick cancelled for tomorrow night. We were looking forward to it. *sad sad* How goes you?

@olddudes3d Sorry to hear about the illness. ☹ Hoping for a speedy recovery for you! And I didn't know Cheap Trick was still touring!

What kind of stuff have you been printing? I think about diving in to 3D printing from time to time. Seems interesting. Curious to hear how often you print things you need around the house or if it's mostly hobby/art?

Things are alright up here. Been enjoying the dry weather for a few days and getting some chores done around the house before The Rainâ„¢ returns.

@cbielstein I've been printing tons of skulls - planters, bowls, decorative. Trying to learn how to airbrush. I also print Flexi Factory items. I do print some functional things as well - brackets, cell holders, go pro holders, planters I've designed myself. Juts kind of having fun, learning and making a bunch of things I can try to sell at a craft fair. lol

@olddudes3d Sounds like a lot of fun! How'd you get in to it? Buy a printer or use someone else's first to test the waters?

@cbielstein My loving wife bought me an Ender 3 for Christmas last year and a box of sample filament. I had "hinted" about one, but did not expect it. I've been in tech for about 30 years, and have been intrigued by them for quite awhile. Now I have a small addiction and want a 3rd printer after I upgrade to a new PC to handle the design software I've been using better.
