Hey everyone, It's Andy here. Some people call me the Modern Inventor! I'm a huge fan of Gary V & Grant Cardone, building my personal brand. One day, I came up w/ a clever name that encompasses what I do, "Modern Inventor". The stars were aligned and I own the domain name and IG! @moderninventor

Yes, I do invent products and can show you how to! Keep scrolling :)

About me:
Grew up in Fort Smith Arkansas, now living in Orlando, Florida!Naturally introverted, learning to overcome my instincts through personal development and surrounding myself with awesome people.

I have 3 sisters and the only son. This helped me meet ladies in college because I was constantly surrounded by them... #blessed (>_<)

I started college in engineering and switched majors after talking to a "real" engineer warning me that I didn't want to become a "cubicle bitch" working on an ashtray or stupid cup holder. After hearing this I decided to switch my major the very next day!
I'm a 2010 Graduate from the University of Central Florida with a degree in Marketing and a full time entrepreneur. Heres me with my Jewish brother form another mother Zach.

Ironically, just several years later I did design a cupholder... for the Tesla Model S! It becomes wildly popular and has been installed on thousands of Teslas around the world.

How I got into bitcoin
I received by first Bitcoin payment in Feb 2015. I sold a 3D printed item for $30 bucks and the buyer asks if I accept Bitcoin. I had no clue what this was, but I trusted him and received 0.13086 Bitcoin (BTC). Two years and a half years later (12/21/17) this same Bitcoin (BTC) is worth over $2,211 USD! Over 7,370% gain!

I'm an early adopter of technology and keen observer of trends offering both conventional and unconventional approaches to problems. For Halloween this year.. I was a Bitcoin ATM!

Growing up with a single mom I've learned to eliminate what’s unnecessary to do more with less. I love to have fun, learn new things, and plan to explore the world while creating profitable business and positive difference. I'm a huge nerd with a passion for new technology especially with manufacturing, automobiles, photography and knowledge.

I have a kickass Mastermind group (2013 Cruise Photo). One day I plan to create a laboratory like the fictional character Tony Stark. (Yes thats me as Iron man)

Here is a project I've been working on for the last 2.5 Years. It's a giant mobile 3D printer/CNC hybrid. Designed to be the ultimate "Factory in a Box". This first machine is our Gen 1 prototype. It featured a single arm gantry design, used to demonstrate some very unique features. For one, the machine is wall mounted like a TV! Secondly, it combines a 3D printer head and a CNC spindle which allows for both additive and subtractive manufacturing. This is the holy grail of manufacturing because you can gain the benefits of both systems. 3D printing allows you to create parts that are impossible to make with traditional methods.

The CNC spindle allows you to mill the edges of the part for a perfectly precise smooth finish. My business partner and machine designer/builder Marcos Cruz is an artist with over 14 public art installations including at the airport in Bahamas, hotels in Miami, FT Lauderdale Florida and more. Millebot is a turn-key solution for people and companies who want to make their own products without going to China. Ironically, the two guys on the right side just came from China!

Even animals love Millebot! :P

Another product my partner and I designed and fabricated a camera accessory sold on Amazon. The G6 camera grip was my very first invention back in 2010. I had this great idea but had no clue how to make it, so i shelved the idea knowing one day I would be able to find the solution. Several years later, I now own a company that builds the machine that can make my product and I want to share this with the world. Demonstrating how an ordinary person can come up with an idea and make money from it from start to finish!

Here it is being tested in the Sierra Desert by my buddy and his lady!
