Hello World : 85/100
In most programming languages the first step is writing a ‘Hello World’ example. This is to help give you a first taste of how to use a language in a very basic form. I figure that in woodworking there should probably be something similar. For me that is a basic table, and hence I present…

Remote Workspace : 82/100
I have worked from home/remotely for about 10 years. During the first 4 years I was in an office in our home. I had a great workspace setup for working. We were in downtown Phoenix so I would go to coffee shops and co-working spaces occasionally. Then we hit the road 6 years ago and…

Watching over you : 77/100
Got my repaired/replaced apple watch back a few days ago. If you read my last post about it breaking you know that I have misgivings about this device now. Do we need technology to be so personal? Do we need more immediate and constant distractions? I am working these questions out. Hang tight! Since I…

Woodworking : 76/100
I am not a woodworker in the sense that I have ever built much worth keeping around. I have done construction work over the years and am not the most worthless person to have around. However I don’t have a great grasp of the fundamentals and therefore lack confidence. The last proper instruction I had…
