Hello this is Dave Austin here. My major is Digital Maker, Fabricator and Robotics. Pretty simple and to the point, but there is more to me than this. I am a retired Staff Sargent in the United States Army I was in for 18 years before the army said you are to broken to be in the army and I became a disabled veteran of 100 percent (if you were to do normal math instead of VA math, I would be around 350 percent disabled.). If you want to talk with me, I prefer going with Dave and if you want to go by title I go by Staff Sargent, my retired rank.

I live in outside Ardmore Tennessee in the country. I love to build Models and create modified Models and dioramas for the models.  I Love to read a lot. My Stepmother was a librarian and now my wife just got her master’s in library science. Reading is a part of my life and when I was overseas, I read a lot to get away from the environment I was in. I was a Mechanic in the army, and I love to fiddle around. I have a 1964 Massey Ferguson I love to tinker with and drive it around mowing my Pasture.

I am interested in making, fabricating a diesel engine that’s about 4 inches long to power systems with the power and torque of a diesel but in miniature. Small diesel engines to run a generator to power emergency systems or to provide power to a worksite.
