Hi everybody.

I am a Norwegian guy from Oslo, Norway. Building a R2 unit, TK and a TD.
Due to some circumstances and an idea from a friend I have started the process of making a Wampa
that need to be ready before the big event in 2015 :)

Normally I work in the TV,theatre and entertainment industry as a consultant and project manager
for lighting system, automation and stage machinery. A very interesting job that I enjoy a lot. It takes
me to many corners of the world and it has given me a lot of knowledge on all aspects with light, effects
and other fun parts of the industry.

And now a lucky member of the Blizzard force and first step to an awesome Wampa (I hope).

Looking forward to read post at this forum and get some new friends :)

Best regard,

Geir
