Machining is nice. I was in IT for little less than 20 years, programming and sysadmin. Then I started hand engraving and got good at it. Now I am fulltime machinist with my own company and quite a few machines. Currently I'm also in u

My route has been opposite, from white to blue collar. I was software developer and sysadmin for 16 years, straight out of school. For past 3 years I've been full time hand engraver and CNC machinist at my own company. I get to do very

Indeed, I switched from Wacom Cintiq to iPad Pro when it came out. So far it's the best drawing experience I've ever had on a digital device. I also had one of the Surface Pros with ntrig digitizer. It was near impossible to draw
