Become a Supporter

Every little bit helps to share what I do with the world... plus it is not cheap (psst... don't tell me wife). The more support I have the easier it is to provide more content and projects for you to enjoy. The best way to support my work is to buy my product on the . Not only are you supporting me but you are supporting the life saving research and treatment provided by St Jude Children's Research Hospital. See '' for why I support St Jude so heavily.

The MalaMaker Haunt

About Me

Hello World...I am Joshua "MalaMaker" Malavolti.

I am a maker through and through. By day I am a lead Identity and Access Management software developer for a Fortune 100 company. In my personal life I build things in all kinds of different mediums from fabrication, metalworking, machining, woodworking, plastics, resins, silicons, upholstery, sewing, anodizing, electronics, and programming / scripting.

In the world of Making and STEAM, I have never met a challenge that I haven't at least considered. Building things is my life... that is what makes me love doing my day job... I plan and build things just with computers. Since I was a little kid I have been in a garage or shop building stuff.

There was a time in my life in my early teen years that due to health reasons I couldn't physically build things like I was use to and that is when I discovered a way to build things through computer programming and scripting.

Surviving Cancer (Finished Treatment October 2001), I have lived my life meeting challenges head on! Life is too short to not enjoy it, learn from it and give back! I live my personal and hobby that way. In my personal life I give back to St Jude Children's Research Hospital by Raising money and participating in the St Jude Memphis to Peoria Run... yes Memphis, TN to Peoria, IL. As of 2021, I have done the run for 19 years and have raised over $112,800. But... Not only do I run but I also contribute my skills to keep the runners safe.

In my hobby life just like in my personal life no medium is considered out of reach. If there is something I want to do and requires a new skill, I figure out how to learn and make the project happen, and share the knowledge. This has led me to learn a vast array of things over the years. Some of the mediums/tools for making I have used or worked with are...

  • Metal Working (Welding, Cutting, Fabrication)

  • Aluminum Anodizing

  • CNC Machining / Cutting (Woods, Plastics, Fabrics, Metals)

  • 3D Printing

  • Silicone Casting

  • Resin Casting

  • Aluminum / Brass Casting

  • PCB Design / Soldering / Microprocessor Programming

  • Electrical

  • Vacuum Forming

  • Powder Coating

  • Concrete Creations (Countertops and Furniture)

  • Woodworking

  • Sewing (Fabrics and upholstery)

  • 3D Parametric Design

  • Animatronics, Special Effects and Mechatronics

  • Audio, Lighting and Video

  • Coding / Programming / Server DevOps (C, C++, Python, Java, C#, Bash, and many many more)
