To the Man With a Workshop, The Whole World Needs Furniture
This article was previously published on Dr. James Goydos' website. About five years ago I ran into a problem; I had lots of woodworking projects I wanted to do but I didn’t have any place to put them once they were completed. I had just about filled our house with the amount of furniture my wife was willing to tolerate and my three adult children aren’t married yet so I still have to wait until I can attempt to furnish their homes with my creations. My solution was to become something I call a vigilante woodworker. Whenever I enter someone’s home, office, or backyard I begin to map out where one of my wooden creations would fit right in and planned my projects accordingly.

New fixation, everyone! Finally, my username has relevance again (/j.) I started bookbinding as a hobby pretty recently.

A quick side note, this post would not be possible without the phenomenal tutorials I've watched. The main one I use, especially in regards to sewing the pages, will be linked below. Also, this is advice that works for me based on my own experience. If this doesn't help, find something that works for you!

Woodworking Takes Planks of Wood & Makes Them Beautiful
This article was previously published by Dr. James Goydos in WotWU February 2021. I have had many hobbies in my life. I collected coins when I was a teenager, I ran marathons in college, when I have the time I ski or ride my road bike, and I’ve always been an avid reader. However, the hobby that I have practiced the longest, and that gives me the most pleasure, is furniture building.
