Teaching I recently got to teach a class on Router basics. Other than it having to be rushed due to the time constraints, it went well. I’ll be converting the documentation for this class into a post on this website, much like I did with my Dado Information class. I was also working on a […]

New Recording Studio Desk As you may know, I recently sold my old studio desk. It worked well but was just too big and ended up not fitting my needs as well as I thought it would. It now has a new loving home in another recording studio. My new one is much simpler and

Making Progress on YouTube Videos I’m currently working on three videos. The first one is just a test video showing the turning of a wooden bowl. I’m taking my time with it so I can try different things and see what works and what doesn’t. I’m currently in the editing phase on this one. The

I got Some Keruing to Make Drums With I found someone on Facebook Marketplace who sells Keruing strips to use as drying stickers, or spacers. I’ve never used Keruing before but the price was right so I’m going to give it a shot. One thing I noticed is that I got a sliver from one

Live Performance with Cody Weathers I got to perform with Cody Weathers and The Men Your Mama Warned You About this past weekend. This is only the second time I’ve sat in with them, the last time being almost a year ago. I felt that the show went well. I didn’t have time to do
