With his career starting out as a pattern maker (not the Butterick kind, though), Ryan moved easily through assembly, welding and eventually machining, collecting a cornucopia of experience along the way. Right from the first day here, Ryan has impressed us with his skill and precision with regard to his metal work. From what he has created thus far, he is the Michelangelo of TIG welding. His determination to achieve such highly precise parts results in highly functional, and aesthetically pleasing machinery. Having legal British citizenship, his “sometimes” accent lends an air of sophistication to our motley crew.
