Christopher Furman

My name is Christopher Furman and I am the owner of CF Devices. This company is a way for me to appear as a professional, but most importantly, fund my bad habit of making poetic robots. I have been making things for as long as I can remember. With a well-equipped shop I can usually fabricate the ideas that keep me up at night as well as the peculiar objects that clients need developed and made. I enjoy the process of making, but I really enjoy sharing what I know with others. If I can get makers to build wonderful objects I get to live in a world that is full of visual poetry and charismatic machines.

    This class was great; relaxed and fun atmosphere. Christopher is a knowledgeable and enthusiastic teacher. The cost of this experience was an excellent value.

    This class was so much fun! Christopher is a great teacher with lots of practical information, and his workshop is a maker's wonderland. All the participants were awesome, too. I had a great time -- let's do it again, Chris! Thanks!

    Christopher, whose own work is beyond impressive, is generous with his knowledge and his patience. The class was an easy to absorb introduction to what it takes to build something with moving parts. Got to take home a little moving gadget that is not only a reminder of what I learned but also something to experiment and play with later; gained an invaluable source list; and made new friends with similar interests. Fun and informative day!

    The course was great! We met a lot of fascinating people and got to construct a fully functional mechanical/electrical machine. Simple, but definitely worthwhile!

    This was an amazing workshop. I learned so much and had a great time. Christopher Furman was beyond thorough with his instructions and entertaining as well. The other students were upbeat, interesting and focused. Christopher gave us a handout that was clear and easy to use. He included links so that we can order parts and tinker on our own. I was impressed by the amount of preparation he put into this class, even supplying custom made parts for our flying machine. This class was engaging and lots of fun. I highly recommend it.
