Hi, I’m Craig and I run a design and engineering consultancy. My background is in mechanical design and development engineering and I have worked on products ranging from race cars to large diesel engines to health and safety equipment. I’ve always loved getting involved in STEM support with schools and this looks like a great initiative where I could share my design and engineering skill to help bring some amazing inventions to life.

The mood selector is ready on the crank wheel. Now you can tell the Feel Good Friend how you’re feeling before you turn the handle. What mood would you choose today?
