I am continuing to labor away on the super secret project every day. If I get ahead of schedule this weekend then perhaps I can put together a video for the channel, though not about this of course. I'm really pushing the outer envelope of my fabrication abilities and doing new things in this project I have ...

I really don't know what content to make anymore. Uploading a podcast with no video had ...

Roughing out the first of 5 linoblocks for my full color block printing project. The subject of which will remain a complete mystery. If all goes well I'll do a limited run of prints and offer them for a FranLab campaign in June.

Make your shop bigger the TARDIS way - by making more space! I decided to add storage without taking up more room by making some movable shelving. Tucks away neatly in a corner and I can pull it out to get what I need when I need it, and I still keep the open space. Try it in your own shop!
What is purpose? Is it real? Is it even necessary? And what do we do with and without it? Much to think about.
