Shop Notes & Rambles
Welcome to the quieter corner of the shop — the place where sawdust settles, thoughts wander, and stories take shape. These rambles capture the rhythm of the work, the lessons learned, and the craft that holds it all together.

Grandpa’s Toolbox
A story of heritage tools, basement shops, and the hand plane passed from Grandpa to father to son. This Ramble explores vintage woodworking, generational craft, and the memories held inside an old plywood toolbox.
Mini Kitchen
A forgotten Coleman stove, a tailgate kitchen build, and a season of hard news shaped this Ramble. It’s a story about repair, distraction, memory, and the quiet work of staying steady when life shifts — how a small project became a lifeline, and how building kept me moving when the world felt still.
