From woodworking to aerospace, 30+ years of hands-on experience—sharing lessons, skills, and shop insights.

Timber framing is a good one. You definatly have to live in an area with logging. The best we can get around here is a good 4x4 untreated douglas fir.

Welding... rub it in why don't ya! 😁

What is a skill that you would like to learn?

I’ll go first, welding…

Because my welds look like chicken poop…

You are going to wish you could delete notes on nostr!

Thank you! It's nice to almost put the inspection behind me.

My new shop is almost complete!

It has been several years in the making.

I am looking forward to using it to help teach others valuable shop skills so they can go out and make great things!

Here is my latest video on the unique features that have been built into it.

Cheers!

Put a knot in it!

No really, when you are working with corded power tools and you pull the cord and it becomes unplugged.

That’s frustrating!

Now, when you plug it back, put the plugs in a knot (like the picture) that will keep those plugs from becoming unplugged…

When your at the top of a ladder!

Cheers!

Quality is not how perfect your work can be when you give it out.

Quality is how flawed something can be and you still call it your work.

My wife and I don’t regret spending more money on our wedding…

A wedding lasts a day and is gone; your marriage lasts a lifetime.

Which is more important?

Cheers!

Don’t foam insulate your exterior door installations, you will regret it later.

I know the foam can they sell is fun to play with, just don’t inject it between you door jam and wall framing.

It will glue your door in place!

See, you may need to adjust that door in the future and the foam will not allow the movement you need.

Use batt insulation instead.

Install with a putty knife loosely in the space between the jam and framing and you will have the flexibility later to adjust.

Cheers!

Do you have a project you want to accomplish?

However, you haven't started because all details are not fully planned out.

Most projects are a journey that needs to be started in order for details to fully show themselves. Each step helps you solve the next problem.

Embrace the journey, both good and bad; and let go of the prison of over planning and perfectionism.

Get building!

Cheers!

There is something special when you get to the sheetrock stage of a construction project.

The space that you imagine has up to that point only been a construct in your mind.

When the true walls go up, your imagination becomes reality.

Cheers!
