The Maker<\/span>
Behind It All<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Hi, I'm Graeme. <\/p>\n

I'm a coder, electronics enthusiast, and maker with a lifelong curiosity for how things work. That curiosity started young and never stopped.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Over the years I've built everything from traffic light controllers and telephone exchange apps to vending machine systems. I founded a software development company<\/span> in the financial investment space and ran it for 18 years before selling up to focus on what I love most: embedded systems, electronics, and making things. The maker community has been a huge part of that shift \u2014 a world of like-minded people who share a passion for 3D printing, electronics, and building things that didn't exist before.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

A Thousand Projects<\/span> is where it all comes together. It's my space to explore technology across every domain I can get my hands on, and hopefully inspire a few others to start building too.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
