Etching circuit patterns with a laser.  The board is covered with photo resist and the laser etches out the circuit pattern.  The next step will be to put the boards in an etchant which will remove the photo resist, leaving the copper circuit behind.

Friction welding machine designed and built at Cooper Union.  It welds two pieces of metal by spinning one piece super fast against a second, stationary piece.  The friction generates enough heat to weld the joint.

Etching a circuit board on the Sherline Mill at NYC Resistor.  I drilled the holes first this time.  (the board has two parts:  holes to place the components and etched copper traces to connect them)
