That one guy

I've always strove to be "That one guy." 

That one guy, that you could bring your stuff to. To get it fixed, To get it built, To get it reinvented into something better.

I grew up in that guy's house. And my father is one of the best "that one guy"

I'm assuming its hereditary. 

 

The Gram

For the last year or two, I've been making walnut nameplates for all our new hires at work. I finally decided to make myself one, but of course, mine needed to be purpleheart. #woodworking
Field trip today. #space
Spent my Saturday with @longgonz sawing slabs and smiting hooks. Pretty dang good day. #sawmill #blacksmithing #slaberday
#harborfreight getting a workout today in the nice weather. Lots of 10/4 pine made. Side note, need to make counter weight for tractor... #sawmill
Alrighty. I vaguely remember how to make these...
Not sure my mini mill was designed to drill 3/4" holes... but it seemed to get it done. #machining
Where we last left off, we had a lump of an old excavator pin we had squared up. Now that Christmas has came and went, we can see what that lump became. #hammer #blacksmithing #machining
Anvil holdfast. Good thing @blackbearforge posted a video on how to make these a couple days ago. I needed one. Thanks! #blacksmithing
I'm not sure my little mini mill was designed to flatten 2" wide 4140 steel, but it seemed to be chugging along till this little glass fuse gave up. Where's @radioshack when you need them? #manualmachining
