HERE'S A LIST OF THE MORE UNIQUE DEVICES I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF WORKING ON. Some of them are only unique in that we essentially started out a computer repair service and someone would call and ask “Uhh…. Can you look at my oven” and we would provide the obligatory “Let's schedule a time to giver a look-see” and we ended up servicing soooo many non computer/personal electronics we had to add it to the name. We were originally Custom Computer Solutions from Findlay Ohio. It is by no means a complete list but it can give the average person a better idea of the wide array of equipment we have serviced… 


CNC Machines: GIANT Drills, 3d printers, Automated Quilting machine (MASSIVE sewing machine SYSTEM to make quilt assembly take a few DAYS not a few MONTHS), windows 7 powered 6 Axis “Head porting” CNC machine to recut the intake/exhaust on racecar heads and do light block refinishing, CNC Block hone/press (for the boring/honing/sleeving mods of OEM and aftermarket race car blocks), First digital Flow-bench from Flowmaster for use with the head-porting machine.


HOME APPLIANCES:  Stove, in wall dual oven from the 70s, dryer, washer, water softener,


GYM EQUIPMENT: Treadmill (a lot of belt replacements and re-tensioning), In Gym Entertainment / audio systems… (Gotta have that stereo bumped up if you wanna get pumped up!),  old “total gym” mainboard replacement, 


RETRO ELECTRONICS : Tandy HD Laptop, Series 1 Windows laptop, MANY pre-internet era computers from stuff like OLD IBM devices to this ANCIENT keyboard that was the predecessor to the modern all in one PC that made a regular glass home Television into a personal Computer!

Bio-Med Devices :  Cochlear Implant setup to iphone for elderly client. (I PLAYED YOUTUBE MUSIC, INSIDE A PERSONS HEAD,[google cochlear implant] THIS WAS FASCINATING!!!)

Audiology / Music Production Equipment: Many Home Studio setups, recording booths, etc.

Video / animation/ Digital Media Creation: AVDC has soo many unique pieces of equipment and devices I cant even begin a list, from high end cameras and video recording devices to laser/lidar scanning equipment this few and exciting field I could talk for days about!


Automotive stuff : Gen 1 MSD PC programmed ECU/rev limiter/launch controller all in one (WE tested that INSIDE and that was a wild day!), Flowbench for heads (goes with that porting machine, measures airflow before and after the porting process to validate the operation success by providing the amount of air flowed through in CFM or ㎥s),
