One of the first things I did when I moved out of the nest was to build my own folding bed from scratch. It wasn’t very good, but it set me up for a life long learning of DIY and maker skills. I would have never thought that my work would actually end up in a museum!
These days I mostly like to work with 3d printing, electronics, and my drill press.
In my free time I “relax” by watching all of the YouTube maker channels, among my favorites are mitxela, Tim Hunkin and Wintergatan.
