The reviews I wrote for HackSpace magazine between 2018 and 2021, from smart switches to a bench drill and the WorkBee CNC, with links to each issue.

Eleven displays, signs and gifts I cut on the WorkBee CNC between 2020 and 2021, rescued from the old portfolio pages.

Three seasonal builds from 2019 and 2020 that only ever lived on the old portfolio page: scorched pallet-wood lanterns, a light-up monster and a plywood sleigh.

The Harmony garden bench and Sonoma coffee table, the two Weekend Woodworker builds I never got round to writing up.

Looking back at the zombie apocalypse project that started this blog: what I set out to do, and the four projects I finished before changing direction.

The books, communities, shops, YouTube channels, courses and services that helped me most as a new maker, as of the end of 2019.

Every tool in my workshop as of September 2019, from the Bosch Power for ALL cordless range to my Aldi bargains, with notes on each.

After five years away, I'm back. Here's where I went, why making fell by the wayside, and what brought me back to it.

How I take a design from a vague idea to a carved, painted and oiled display on my WorkBee CNC, using a footprints piece as the example.

Emma and I made our first epoxy resin river piece, a laptop tray from reclaimed sycamore, and learned where the resin goes when boards aren't flat.
