I'm from the Seattle area and work in tech, specifically video games and technology research. I stopped working full time in 2022 and am taking some time to do consulting work and figure out what to do next. The subjects I know the most about personally are fiber arts, video games, and human-computer interaction, but I also love editing for readability and clarity.

- 19:49, 14 January 2024 diff hist +8 Spinning wheel →Friction Drive - 19:48, 14 January 2024 diff hist +1,155 Spinning wheel →Types: added section on Friction Drive wheels; they're unusual but do exist. - 19:15, 14 January 2024 diff hist +250 Spinning wheel →Types: added citation for fiber preparation and rewrote that paragraph, since the original was very unclear and lacked a citation. - 19:05, 14 January 2024 diff hist +249 Spinning wheel →Great wheel: added citation for mechanics of a great wheel. Turns out I found the same article cited in the previous paragraph. - 18:53, 14 January 2024 diff hist +174 Spinning wheel →Treadle wheel: added citation for single vs double treadle considerations, slight clarity edit and added that ergonomics is a consideration - 18:45, 14 January 2024 diff hist +170 Spinning wheel →Electric spinning wheel - 18:37, 14 January 2024 diff hist +193 Spinning wheel →Upright style: Added citation for Irish Castle wheel, slight readability edits - 18:33, 14 January 2024 diff hist +440 Spinning wheel →Double drive: Added a citation for materials a drive bad is made of. Added some clarification to the spinning mechanics: the yarn doesn't continually wind on, but similar to single-drive setup there is slippage while the yarn is held in tension and wind-on when the tension is let up. - 18:27, 14 January 2024 diff hist −442 Spinning wheel →Single drive: Added information on Scotch vs. Irish tension, removed two 'citation needed' graphs and added information that is backed up by the Schacht page to cover brake band drag. - 06:03, 2 October 2023 diff hist 0 Madalyn Murray O'Hair →Investigation and arrests: "had went" -> "had gone" - 06:02, 2 October 2023 diff hist −1 Madalyn Murray O'Hair →Investigation and arrests: removed incorrect comma. - 06:01, 2 October 2023 diff hist −1 Madalyn Murray O'Hair →Investigation and arrests: removed incorrect comma. - 06:11, 27 June 2023 diff hist −5 Oklahoma! (1955 film) →From stage to screen: Fixing incorrect quotes causing italics
