Not a bad days worth of work. This built in medicine cabinet will replace it’s old particleboard cousin in a client’s house that happens to be a stone’s throw from my house and shop! So handy to work in my own back yard for a customer right in my neighborhood!

Everything is fit to size, sanded to 120 and roughly assembled. Turns out there’s not a single metal fastener in this thing thanks to the domino πŸ’ͺ🏼 mortise and loose tenon joinery for the win!

I am making a knife!

I have no idea what the hell I’m doing!

But I’ve started to form a plan

I have support from the best material suppliers and tool manufacturers

I’ve surrounded myself with the best bladesmiths, blacksmiths and knife makers in the world.

The material arrived today thanks to my man Lawrence up at

I installed a brand new washboard on my CNC

I am designing some new work holding setups

I continue to hone my design and pour over the tiniest of details

The stage is set y’all! Time for this woodworker to see what this knife making thing is all about!

Wish me luck!

The Fitzgerald gives a nod to the mid century modern with its orange thread, rich brown oil tanned leather body and the incredible veg tanned leather accents and straps from the incomparable tannery.

Iteration - The mother of Invention!
I’ve been messing around with some leather ideas recently and I finally landed on a design I like. It was all about the details and I couldn’t fully realize all of them until I had a prototype in my hands. I’ve been carrying the final version for about a week now and it’s damn near perfect! I need a to slips in the pen loop! πŸ–Š πŸ’ͺπŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ

Are you still fat fi*****ng your finest bit balancing your router on your workbench using the base as a makeshift router table doing your best to keep your fingers from being consumed by the carbide bit spinning at 12,000 rpm? πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ Believe me I’ve been there! Done that! and it’s only a matter of time until you end up munching your fingers in the bit or even worse! (sadly I’ve been there and done that too! πŸ˜†). Stop your router ridiculousness and get yourself a table son! This one will do just fine. I’ve had it in my shop for several months now and pound per pound dollars to donuts this is a solid option! It comes with a pair of featherboards, decent dust collection (for a router table) and my favorite feature - above the table bit height adjustment! All this at under $150 (I actually just checked and you can snag one right now from for $139!) That’s a steal!

There are three categories of people that exist in this world; β€œThe Wanters”, β€œThe Wishers” and β€œThe Makers.”
~ Israelmore Ayivor
🧰
Manufacturing is Dead?
Manufacturing here in the U.S. has been on a steady decline for a number of years. The β€œGlory Days” of the 1920’s and 30’s more than 20% of US workforce held manufacturing jobs. Today that number has fallen to below 8%.
🧰
Change is Happening!
Thanks to things like increased consumer awareness, demand for U.S. made products, automation, and the ability to cut out the middle man we are seeing signs of an increase in manufacturing. It may be small but it’s changing!
🧰
What’s Causing Change?
I believe this change is due at least in some small part to the passion and drive of the maker community and our ability to design, produce, market and sell products out of our garage!
🧰
The Maker Economy
The onset of COVID brought mask shortages to an unprepared supply chain. Factories struggled to produce enough supply to keep up with the massive demand. In response to this crisis Makers sprang to action and 1000’s of 3D printers were put to work printing and assembling face shields, countless sewing machines were put to work sewing masks and we even saw new DIY ventilator designs being created! Makers responded in full force and as a result we saw new shortages appear. Elastic banding, clear transparency films and other mask and face shield β€œingredients” sold out or were very hard to come by. The Maker Economy showed its face and it awakened the world to our ability to mass produce much needed products quickly.
🧰
Let’s Keep It Going!
Several months back I was contacted by .com_ to be part of their β€œThe Makers” video series highlighting Makers in our community and allowing them to tell their story. I was blown away that they would even consider me and I am incredibly humbled to be a part of the first season. I had seen the videos on and and I was thrilled by the thought of having a video shot in my shop.
