Not quite sure what details i should put in here. I am pretty boring, but I have 2 beautiful daughters and an amazing wife. I am 35 years old and I love to build/make things. Currently I have the K40 laser engraver with an upgraded Cohesion 3d controller board using LightBurn, an Ender 3 by Creality (3d Printer), and last but not least I also built a MPCNC running Marlin on the Rambo Board. If there is anything I missed, feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer.
