Science & Engineering Advice

35


35 per hour - Virtual OK - Posted Aug 06, 2017

Do you have a question about a practical application of science? Would you like me to debunk a technological claim that seems too good to be true? Is there a risk you would like to have rationally analyzed? Is there a family heirloom vacuum tube radio you would like to restore to proper functionality? Is your child insisting on building dangerous electrical apparatus, and you'd like them to have some experienced guidance? I can help you with any of these things, and more.

Training & Qualifications


Associate of Science (a year of Physics, a year of Chemistry, two years of Math, etc., balanced with Cultural Anthropology)
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (two more years of math, major focus on analog circuits and power systems)
My career has been split between industry and academic laboratories, both as an independent contractor and as a salaried employee.

Availability & Preferences


I keep a flexible schedule as much as possible.

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

The only thing with intrinsic value is human experience - and how it makes us feel. Bartering is a far kinder method than currency.

Master Tinkerer for Hire

About Grayson Dietrich

I am a Humanist, Agnostic, Electrical Engineer, Tinkerer, Amateur Scientist, and egalitarian dabbler with socialist leanings and a small machine shop. I'd like to help you develop an application of th...ose patent rights you recently bought, but in the meanwhile I'm going to continue building replicas of 19th century electrical apparatus. I've been creating things for as long as I have been able, and along the way picked up an Associate of Science and a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. Professional projects I've worked on include deep-sea oceanographic instrumentation, waste heat power harvesting for subarctic conditions, HIRF-resistant audio systems, and a lightning-induced waveform generator for environmental testing. Personal projects have ranged over the years, including many minimalist radio circuits, homemade semiconductors, switchmode power supplies, Hi-Fi audio amplifiers, and a variety of high voltage devices. show more
