    Hardware design... rivets and buttons and shit?

    I had to do a lot of that stuff in the past. Ultimate portfolio killer "Yeah, this was a denim rivet I did for blah blah blah, here's one I did for blah blah blah" but, actually strangely satisfying work. I used to get a real kick out of preparing front, side and isometric diagrams, cut throughs, specifying hole diameters, all that shit. More like being an engineer of tiny things rather than a designer.

    I'm now wondering if I should dig out my old stuff and head back that way for old time's sake.
