  I saw that episode here a couple of weeks ago and was going to comment on it. Always nice to put a face to the name. And seeing some of the crazy stuff you guys work on---know wonder your photochops are so amazing.  And as a bonus we got to see the cuda make an appearance on screen to.    :thumbsup:

Wow Aaron,
What a dream job, in a dream location! Good for you! :2thumbs: I watched that and thought...wow, I'd sure like to spend some time there someday! It would be a blast to fly/ship my car over there and spend a few months! ( now I'm really dreaming!)
 I started out as a model maker for the die-cast industry ( mainly automotive) Very "old school" wood, resins, wax , casting, etc.... It sure has come a long way!
Thanks for sharing!, and as mentioned it was great to put a face to the name! Love your car's personality too! :2thumbs:

cool!!! 

I only watched the intro.

Did you get to meet Barry???  He seems like a very genuine likable fellow.

Did your wicked ride get some more airtime?

Awesome! I've been drooling over that Warthog since I saw it.

What do you do there day to day?

Strangely enough, I'm associated with the games industry. I work for the company that develops Gears of War.

 :worshippy  You're famous!  It was nice to see you and your Cuda on the video and see all the amazing things you get to create.  I like those 3D printers.  Think you could print me a 426 HEMI engine and send it my way?

Wicked cool that you got your car 'featured' in the episode, hey Mad Max is one of my all time favorite movies, too.  "Last of the V8 Interceptors", anyone?  The host of the Car Crazy show has always struck me a little weird.  He's likeable enough, but he seems to have a problem with other people's personal space.  I didin't notice it so much in this episode, but watch the show enough and you'll see him really crowd / lean in on people and you can see in its making them uncomfortable.  Who knows, maybe somebody has already pointed it out to him...  Anyway, agree with the others; yours has got to be as close to a dream job as any of us are likely to ever find, congrats!!
