First amateur licence issue was in the Solomon Islands around 1976 with call sign VR4DJ. Licenced in Australia from 1982 and relocated across many States . WIA member No. 501476

HF radio is an ICOM 7300 into homemade dipoles and verticals.

Personal

My background is in both mechanics and electronics.

I discovered 3D printing in my retirement and learned that it, along with the modern design tools available today, can provide great opportunities to have fun and, hopefully, do some good along the way.

So in essence, I am just a retired old fart who likes to learn and play with new technology.

I don't usually look this good but I'd just fixed the gas griller in the caravan. On lighting the griller, I had a small accident (Notice the great hair style). The sharing caring wife doesn't say, "I'll get the first aid kit" or even "Are you ok?". No it was "Wait till I go and get a camera". This is the result.

One thing I learnt late in life is to always look on the bright side of life and you're never to old to learn something new. Provided there is a fire extinguisher around.
