James Akers<p>Working on neon for the EAR INN, apparently one of Manhattan's oldest bars dating back to 1817. Their sign is a real ol' rustbucket apparently and is difficult to service. I have never been, but they are thinking of sending me. </p><p>There isn't a bunch of money in these repairs, and while its really satisfying to get the repair right without having to remake a section, often, pieces crack back and more work must be done.</p><p>That paint gets in the welds and creates leaks- very annoying. Smells lovely when its burning. Whoever worked on it last left some super thin glass at the electrodes for me to weld to... cool, cool.</p><p>They really need to be able to take the sign down and refurbish it and then be able to put it back up. It would be more of a cost up front, but would save them in the routine service calls. </p><p>I thought I was ordering packs of 2 marker tips but they were actually packs of 5. The patterns are nice an bold again :)</p><p><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/nyc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nyc</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/signs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>signs</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/neon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neon</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repair</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/service" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>service</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/work" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>work</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/glass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glass</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/fixing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fixing</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/job" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>job</span></a></p>

William McAusland<p>Technician Android<br>As their name implies, these androids specialize in one main technician skill area, but often have minor qualifications in other skills, too. They were originally designed to serve alongside either industrial or scientific models, but were widely dispersed throughout the old world. Of course, with their knowledge and access to essential services, those that were corrupted by the Mecha caused devastating damage to the infrastructure of human cities and industry, and left vast swaths of the human population without food, water, heat, virtual reality up-link, air conditioning and power.</p><p>Hand drawn ink art from page 40, from The Mutant Epoch RPG Expansion Rules book<br>Check it out here: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/0994923791" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">amazon.com/dp/0994923791</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> or <a href="https://www.outlandarts.com/expansionrules.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">outlandarts.com/expansionrules</span><span class="invisible">.htm</span></a><br>
