Jason Pohl: From Game Design to Orange County Choppers and Beyond

Jason Pohl calls himself a "pretengineer" because he is self-taught. Trained as an artist, his design work has taken him from creating video games to designing and manufacturing parts for Orange County Choppers. He turned to CAD design and worked with CNC machines, creating custom parts for motorcycles in-house.

Jason has boundless energy and enthusiasm as someone who does what he's always wanted to do: create real things. And it may have been a high school art teacher who pointed him in the direction he would go. She told him that everything around him was designed by someone and he could be that person.

In this episode of Make:cast, Jason joins Community Editor David Groom and me for a conversation about his design work.
