      A climate control system that keeps the cameras and electronics in the machine within a set temperature range. If it gets too cold then heater mats switch on, and if it gets too hot then fans mounted to a heat exchange turn on. This pushes the hot air onto a cold surface and cools the enclosure. The heat energy is taken away by the cold water being pumped through the heat exchanger. It was a fun project to work on, lots of temperature testing and building.

      A machine to make tiny hollow glass spheres – with a blowtorch / flame-thrower!

      A handmade lipstick box. I gave it to her when i was about 12 and 30 years later it is still being in use. My mum loves it and it lasts. I think it is the best thing I have ever designed.
