Who also love S.T.E.A.M. (especially math).

9. But... What about the hobby?
A good job also means having the flexibility to do other cool things

10. I build airplanes. And fly them too.
Part of having fun is finding the time to bend some metal.

11. Math counts. Even in hobbies.
Geometry!

12. Engineering can be quite fun when you play with components.
Ever make a bridge? Play with robotics?

13. Creativity does count.
Fun with glues and paint? But, you need to keep your things neat.

14. Measure (twice). Verify. Cut.
Sometimes you need to do art and try things before you cut.
Also, check your math.

15. If you hit a problem, solve it.
Invent new solutions. Learn new skills. Run many wires.

16. Take steps backward and look at the landscape view.
But, it tends to come together in the end.

18. All done.
Just Kidding. Any questions?
