My Automata

I make one-off, whimsical wooden automata. Most are small, hand-cranked contraptions with minimalist mechanisms, although for  special occasions such as Halloween and 4th July, I make large motorized ones for the front yard.

I was previously an animator, wood carver and musician. Making automata allows me to combine these skills and, most importantly, to have something physical to play with at the end of the day.
