Coy Shaffstall is a tech and gear junkie. He is very interested in the newest and hottest and what is right around the corner. Fascinated by the way things work, he’ll disassemble something in his mind soon after it touches his hands. Coy has often seen trouble when these deconstructions were not restricted to his imagination.

It was because of this interest that he was hired to write TechQuips, a tech-review column in X-Ray Magazine each week covering one to three gadgets, gizmos, and gear.
