Other experience
-
3D printing hobbyist
I love designing random brackets, hooks, cup holders, etc. that are meant for a specific thing you have. I made a cup holder insert for my car so that a thin aluminum can won't fall over when put in. It is a fun skill to have to be able to 3D print something to fix an annoyance in your life.
