Please just let me know if there is a problem and I will do my best to correct it.

If you have me for more than one swap feel free to combine in one envelope.

I have a wide variety of skills and interests which are reflected all the activities and projects I get involved in. I am a crafter, collector, builder, gadgeteer, and adventurer.

I love the fantasy genre first but also enjoy sci-fi and most of what I create has something to do with one of them.

I am also run clubs for Geocaching, Steampunk Workshops, OES, and have been starting up a handicraft guild in my area.
