Network/Systems Engineer. As a kid, I took everything apart, wired up custom stuff with house current, batteries, whatever. First interested in EE, then pursued aeronautical for a while (I do have my pilot's license), wound up on computers career-wise.

We fab all of our own parts. We have 6 Deltaweld 402's in our shop.
I don't get to go out in the shop much now, but I have a nice setup at home in my own shop. MIG, TIG, a small plasma hand torch, a home-built 4'x8' CNC plasma table, mill, lathe, english wheel, etc.

I'm a Structural Engineer from New Zealand.
It makes strength training a lot more interesting because you can understand the mechanics/stresses/strains that the body goes under during the lifts

Electrical Engineer here. I am finishing up my masters right now. It is on Laser drivers for fiber to the home.
Right now due to some complications I'm 8 months over time and trying to finish it off.

Automotive Engineer here. Finished my MSc in October 08. Struggling to find work since graduating maybe due to economy. Doing Stronglifts to get back in shape after student life while I have plenty of time on my hands.
There was once a man who failed to make a light bulb 999 times. But he isn't remembered for those 999 failures.
