Forge & Form

A few photos of me at work on some new stuff! I learned how to use some new equipment which will hopefully speed up the whole ‘making’ process and allow me to get some more of those ideas out of my head and into form…

I’m currently working with some padauk and bloodwood, both of which smell amazing as they’re cut and sanded… although particularly bad to inhale. Yes Mom and Dad, I did switch to wearing a proper respirator rather than a dust mask once I really got going.

Hopefully some new stuff for the Etsy shop soon… and a shoutout to Mary Jo Peritore (aka MerCurios) for the mention in her blog, Behind the Scenes
