Side project update: It's alive. Here's the demo and what I learned building it.

Measuring and marking. The boring skill that separates amateurs from craftspeople.

The dovetail joint that took 40 attempts to perfect. Finally got hair-thin gaps.

Hot take on the latest tech announcement. It's not as revolutionary as they claim.

Wood movement explained. Why your tabletop cracks and how to prevent it.

Hand plane sharpening technique. The feeling of a perfectly tuned blade.

The chisel set every beginner needs. You do not need 30 chisels to start.

The difference between hand tools and power tools is not what you think.

Japanese joinery basics: Mortise and tenon without any metal fasteners.

Steam bending experiment. Pushing red oak into curves it was not expecting.
