Documentation
Today I’m going to talk about a subject I truly struggle with: social media. Remembering to document my work as I go along is difficult at best. I’m so caught up in the actual work, I often don’t think to stop and take photos along the way, much less shoot video while I’m working. It’s

See Part one of this post. And part three here The Build As usual I began by just laying out pieces to figure out what exactly this pile of stuff was going to become. I began sifting through the parts I had picked up at the reStore. Initially I had plans in my head to

Habitat for Humanity Auction
So a while ago, I was asked to participate in the “Party for Humanity” fundraiser, September 26, 2019, for Habitat for Humanity, by donating a piece for work for the auction.
