Today my kid came home with a really basic snake drawing that he did for fun. (Not pictured) and I figured if he's drawing for fun its worth seeing if there is anything there so I printed this picture of the snake and told him I wanted to see how good he could to draw it. He loved the idea and drew it. He brought it back and I showed him some things that could be better. we did that a few times and over 2 hours and 6 iterations as a young boy he went from the top drawing to the bottom. Much better than I was at his age. #artstr #art #drawing #proudparent

#doctors say this is bad but this was my dinner. 6 scrambled eggs and 6 tbs salted butter with some pink salt to taste. #delicious #foodstr #homestead #carnivore

Thoughts on the patterns before I do a glue up? I was going to use these for something else but noticed this when i had the blanks stacked up from the side. Now im thinking about making 2 nice end grain cutting boards. #advice #NOSTR #makestr #woodworking #craftsman

Breaking a 62 hour strict water fast with some eggs from my chickens and black coffee. First time I've gone more than a day without food in over 15 years. Joints feel amazing, some digestive issues are currently going better than they have in years. Hopefully that sticks after feeding back in. Next 2 weeks will be eggs, #beef and chicken with salt only. Looking forward to seeing how I feel but so far I'd recommend the fasting part for sure to anyone dealing with inflammation issues. #fasting #health #carnivore #homestead #chickens #lowtimepreference #coffee #foodstr

A bit more progress on the #table the #epoxy is hardening nicely, in about a week I'll delaminate and surface it. Then it's just adding the end caps. Still trying to decide if I want to just do #dominos or if I want to slot and dowel. Either way very happy with how it's turning out. Can't wait to see the finished result. #woodworking #craftsman #joinery #furniture #bitcoin #builder #makestr

Made some acrylic fume hoods for a local chemical testing facility.

#3dprint on this reducer flange turned out nice. 100% infill with ABS The taper should help get a bit extra out of my dust collection. Spent the day doing some shop #optimization and #organization

Recent work project, raffle tumbler. Gamblers everywhere.

Made some progress on the table project. Even pre glue the base is quite stable. I'm getting better at joinery for sure! #woodworking #woodcrafter #joinery #makestr #craftsman #table

Merry Christmas and happy birthday!!!!

For those following my table build, got the main portion of the top glued up today. Next step will be taking picks and chisels to the deadwood and sealing it with some epoxy. #woodworking #woodcraft #craftsman #makestr #artisan

Some 1/2" acrylic display cases I threw together for a customer with sliding doors.

Ran 250 of these on the #laser for the re opening ceremony at a local #library that my friends employer refinished. Coaster wood matches the wood all over the library. #woodworking #makestr

All back together. Only took me about 9 years to get around to fixing it up.

We ended up with this super worn turret lathe a few years back for $500 and used it for a few small bushing jobs that more than paid for the machine. I decided that justified fixing it up so i pulled it all apart and brushed/picked about 70 years worth of grease and chips out of every crevasse. Redid some electrical, put on some new belts, adjusted all the gibs, re greased everything and now painting it and getting it all back together. Always fun to bring something new life. #makestr #fabricator #rebuild #trashtotreasure #machine

Tried a new joint. I can improve fitment but core concept looks good. #woodworking #craftsman #makestr #joinery

I think I found my table top in the boards. Now to plane it all to thickness and join it. I'm thinking biscuits and pva for the center and slot mortise with dowels for the endcaps to allow the opposing thermal expansion some slack. Hopefully that makes for a long lasting top. I'll use black epoxy to fill the voids. Finish size will be 72x38. #Woodworking #craftsman #joinery #makestr #art

There is a #Table in here some where. I'll find it. #woodworking #woodcraft #craftsman #joinery #makestr

That's a big museum box. Tried some new stuff and ended up with crystal clear welds. Very happy with how this one turned out. Nearly 4'x8'x2' out of 3/8 cast acrylic.

#petershiff sent me this. He seemed very excited.
