About Me

Name: Steve Upton
Location: Warboys
Family: Wife and 2 daughters

Work

I started as a programmer and now run a successful consultancy company. Most of my work time these days I spend managing large scale helpdesk implementations for customers.

Interests

I've always loved making things and learning how things worked. As a dedicated generalist I've never learnt everything about anything but have dabbled in lots, including:

  • Woodworking
  • Wood turning
  • Welding
  • DIY
  • Electronics
  • Programming
  • Web development

Projects

I have loads of ideas but I'm going to start at Makespace with projects that help me learn (re-learn in some cases) basic skills. These will then form building blocks for bigger projects in the future.

Current Projects

  • Jeeves - An Arduino based monitoring and control system for my home office
  • Weatharduino - an Arduino based weather station
  • PiKeys - a keyboard with embedded Raspberry Pi - a modernised C64

Completed Projects

  • Makespace coat rack
