I’m still in awe over this place, and I hope to visit again. This verse is commonly found near water fountains or other water sources. And I always loved the concept of always bringing us back to His remembrance throughout the day.

I can’t capture the feelings I had when we visited the Tekke but seeing this verse right outside of it was a moment I wanted to try to capture.

I have soooo many ideas for this 3D printer already!

Sometimes it really is just about the process. I loved making this table and had wanted to try carving those legs for so long.

But then I never marketed it or mentioned that it’s for sale, aside from taking it to a market, where most people assumes it was part of the display. So it’s currently in my house, waiting for a permanent home.

I’ve printed a bunch of cool things for my kids and for the house but I’m most excited about all the things to make my woodworking easier! Bambu Lab

I doubt anyone has actually learned how to balance everything perfectly. And if they have, they probably have access to a lot more resources than you.

A local coffee shop reached out to me to ask if I could build a community table and it was the biggest thing I’ve ever built. It’s 11’ long and seats about 14 people.

I definitely want to build more tables but maybe not this size lol

I realize that some people have figured out the whole balance thing, but they’re often tapping into resources not accessible to everyone. Housekeepers, nannies, assistants, support systems…whatever it may be. Everyone is at a different place.

When I was asked about building a community table for a cafe, I had no idea how I would do it but I knew I could figure it out.

I poured a lot of energy into it and kept wondering if I bit off more than I could chew. I visited cafes to check out dimensions and ratios that made for a smooth experience. I watched how people interacted with the tables. I would fall asleep planning the next step of the build.

In the end, I was able to build something I'm proud of and I can't wait to see it when the cafe is bustling with traffic. I definitely want to build more tables, but I think maybe not this size lol
