Recent Projects

Over the years, I have completed many projects either at home, at school or at university. The inspiration for most of my projects comes from my desire to make something instead of purchasing an equivalent product.  Before designing, I research online to see if anyone else has done a similar project and the methods and techniques they used.
I create my designs with pencil and paper and CAD and prototype any circuitry using a breadboard. 
After producing a scale CAD design, I build my projects by hand in a small workshop behind my house.

Experience:
  • Old Swan, Minster Lovell - I worked as a waiter throughout the summer of 2019 (and then again at Christmas). I worked on the bar, in the restaurant waiting tables and running food, served canapés during functions and worked a few times as a pot wash. This gave me lots of experience working with members of the public.
  • ​Hill Top Garden Store – I worked at Hill Top Garden Store on the tills, where I regularly deal with customers and money. I also did other odd jobs such as unpacking stock and watering plants.
  • 3DI Product Design Consultants - Throughout the week, I designed a 3D printer that could print a henna tattoo on a user's arm. I learnt lots of new skills including CAD Rendering in Keyshot, Photoshop and lots of sketching skills. 
  • Jaguar Land Rover  – I spent a week understanding how the company runs and how quality control is implemented at every stage of production.                                       
  • National Grid work experience for 1 week – I learnt various different skills that National Grid employees learn when working on power lines.
  • Williams Formula 1  – I worked for a week in the composites department, learning how they make carbon fibre parts, and I made a carbon fibre helmet using the same method.

ABOUT ME


Henry Triff

I'm 19 years old. From a young age, I have been interested in design, electronics and engineering and so I have surrounded my life with my interests. From taking apart old radios when I was 9 to building my own smart speaker, I absolutely love to get my hands dirty in the process of understanding how things work. This fascination also extends to computers, and I would confess to being a self-taught computer geek.
Another love of mine is music. I obtained Grade 6 piano and worked on school plays doing sound and lighting. I also enjoy DJing.
I am very ambitious and work hard to achieve my goals. I hope in the future to complete university and get a job in the engineering sector.
