The About page

I make...

Hi, My name is Tim Johnson. I've built this webpage so that I can start documenting things I do and share my work. It's also a launch pad for my design business I have decided to start so that I can work closer to home and spend more time with my now 2 year old daughter. 

I want this place to be a source of inspiration and ideas for me and for others. I want to help people realise that they don't have to be consumers, that they can create. Engineers, artists and designers don't have any special super powers, they've just realised that they can build things. It's not hard, but you need to believe. Read web pages, talk to people, collaborate and start projects. Start hundreds of projects, even if it's just sketching ideas down on a napkin while waiting for dinner. Don't worry about finishing them, finishing isn't important :) Join your local makerspace (I'm an active member of Robots and Dinosaurs in Sydney), they are springing up everywhere. If there isn't one close find like minded people and organise to meet in someone's workshop monthly. This is where everyone started. Get on ebay and buy yourself a soldering iron and an arduino, read blogs, dream and start making!

...and I sell

I've been a stay at home Dad for over a year now and am finally starting to find the time to take my projects more seriously again.  Everything in my store I have built as a personal project and then later developed it into a product. I take great pride in everything I sell, I want people to love the things I make. Because of this it takes me a long time to turn a project into a product. I search for the perfect components from supliers and refine my design until it's simple and elegent. Small things like shipping with a regionally appropriate power supply (travel adapters are cheap and dangerous), or providing a long enough power cable are important to me. I want whatever I've sent you to be loved the second you pull it from it's box. If you are ever unhappy with anything I send then please don't hesitate to contact me, I offer full refunds as I know I will always be able to find another home.
