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

I haven’t posted on nostr in awhile…

Been very busy finishing out my shop/studio.

When I was a kid, I watched Norm Abrams in The New Yankee Workshop. It was fundamental to my becoming a woodworker.

Fast forward to today, and I am now painting the walls of my YouTube studio…

Life is awesome!

Yes it has. That is what we have been eating. The problem is we need to buy a new hand blender. The last time I tried to make mayo, it burned up. 🙄

I was a kid that sat around with all the adults in the room and listened.

I heard all their stories about the trip to the Bahamas in the 60’s and others.

I loved to listen.

Podcasts are like a gift from the heavens for me now. To be able to selectively sit in a room with interesting people and hear discussions from around the world is amazing.

We live in an extraordinary time…

Cheers!

I have about 160% of those to do... have to get the mill set back up!

Is that going to take 80% of your time? 😉

It’s Friday! Any projects planned for the weekend?

A good pneumatic cutoff wheel makes quick work of cutting off stripped bolts.

It is a must have in your toolkit.

When I was first exposed to the machine shop setting , the language used to communicate measurements was confusing...

What is a tenth? or a half a thou?

Learn about this machinist language in my latest video! 👇

Good job!

One of the most underrated and useful ladders is a 2 foot step ladder.

I use it for everything. Painting, construction, drywall.

It is easy to move as you are working and well worth the money spent.

Back when you used the hand saw it was many tools in one.

I used to think these types of things were gimmicks on tools…

Until I needed a square to draw a 90 degree line and I saw it printed on the saw.

Any port in a storm!
