Making things with tools!  I made my living as a research scientist, but have enjoyed woodworking and building things my whole life.  I have always been fascinated by how things work, and inspired by the artists, craftsmen, and craftswomen who make beautiful and functional objects from wood, metal, and other media.  I’m always impressed when things are made with only human-powered tools, but I do not shy away from the use of modern power tools either.   Here, I document some of my occasional projects like building a traditional timber frame barn, bringing vintage tools back to life, or making something to use around the house.
