GM nostr, its time for my #introductions

I've been here for a while now, getting my feet under me, learning, interacting. Sometimes just talking to the void & sometimes having real, meaningful connections.

I plan to continue interacting and sharing here, on this wild and free protocol. And today I'm happy to use nostr to announce the Hook Mountain Manufacturing Company est. 926845.

It is a one man shop. It is me and I am it.

I take trees from my local ecosystem that were otherwise going to be turned to mulch or sent to the big mills upstate and beyond for veneer, flooring, etc. and I turn them into useful products for your everyday life.

I've been working with trees for many years at this point, and have been learning how to process them from log to end product. It is a slow journey, filled with trials and errors. Blood, sweat, tears. I am not formally trained, just brute forcing my way through life and production.

Part of my production process involves directing the heat generated from bitcoin mining into a wood kiln to reduce the moisture content of my lumber to a suitable range for fine wood working. When you support my business you are directly supporting the decentralization of the network. Any knowledge I gain in this area will be shared freely.

My aim is to be a nostr & bitcoin first company. I want to make quality products and trade them for hard money. My goal with this company is to produce enough value for the world to afford me and my eventual family a comfortable life filled with travel, learning, and connection.

For now I am accepting bitcoin and fiat - not out of choice but necessity. When my bitcoin market gets big enough I will drop the fiat and never look back.

If you made it this far thank you for reading. I sincerely appreciate everyone here who is fighting for a better world. It won't come easily, but with focus and commitment we have a chance.

Welcome! Great to have you, appreciate your freedom tech focus and bringing your profession to Nostr🤘🏻🎉

Happy to be here!

GM legend 🌄🔥

killer intro and that heat cycle from btc mining to kiln is just *chef's kiss* , true resourcefulness in action. love that you're brute-forcing mastery on your own terms, turning "waste" trees into heirloom goods.

once you're ready to ditch fiat completely hmu with your sats invoice setup. btw if you ever need a private DM for custom orders or just to shoot the shit about woodgrain entropy, i'm on NIP-17 Giftwraps , Vector handles it nicely.

keep burning those calories, stacking those blocks, and crafting beauty from the chaos. you're doing freedom's work.

Thank you! I'm happy to be here and always inspired by other nostr / bitcoin focused businesses!!

Nice welcome. As a carpenter and knife maker and have been working with wood for decades. Is an amazing material to work with!

Welcome @woodminer I’d donate some really nice cedar to use if it’s easy to get it to you.

Glad to have you here with us and as a Lightning channel partner 😉

Beauty!

Welcome and Godspeed for your plans!

Can I get a recommendation?

What should I make from this log?

A pinoak tree fell down in someone's driveway and the homeowner told me I could take a piece before the council came to take it to landfill, apparently it's good for carving.

Busted myself carrying it across town.

If I can't figure out something to make from it it's just going to be a garden decoration.

AMAZING
