About K3G

I am a hardware guy who specializes in CAD of sheet metal and milled/turned components. I'm a student in Music Technology, so audio editing and live sound are (hopefully) my career choices.

If you need CAD consulting work done, please see my portfolio at http://www.hickmanfamily.com/craig/cad-portfolio or email me at craig AT hickmanfamily DOT com.

    For my projects on the side (generally hardware, I'm a mech guy...), I name them after a mythological creature. I just finished Seraphim, a multi speed epicyclic gearbox. Earlier w…

    This is wonderful! At what point will it be ported to OSX?

    Having played with their new "Kin" line, I can confidently discount them (unless they make some serious changes in strategy). I was met with a device that made little sense, had no…

    The hostel up near Hidden Villa is pretty nice, and you can often times pick up a ride with some of the volunteers who work there. That and there's some awesome kittens running aro…

    They've never asked me to create a separate account, only turn over the main account. I still don't trust anyone with my user account, and so made one name AppleSupport, and enable…
