Dust and coloured stains coat my fingers and nails, a badge of honor earned in the symphony of my workshop. Building furniture, you see, ain't just about filling houses; it's about filling souls. It's a fire ignited by desire, not necessity. We, the stubborn few who dance with wood and steel, are ill-equipped for the polite charades of the office. Our world is one of sawdust and sweat, where problems find form in the shavings that curl from our planes.

We're like magpies, us craftsmen, hoarding a kaleidoscope of tools, each one a trusted extension of our hands. We juggle the hats of designer, engineer, artist, and therapist, all in the span of a single project. It's a chaotic dance, yes, but within that whirlwind lies a profound dialogue, a whispered duet between the logic of our left brain and the playful whimsy of the right. A constant push and pull, fueled by the lessons etched in the scars of past mistakes.

The workbench, that's our sanctuary. It's where the chatter in our heads quiets, where the anxieties of the world melt away with each measured stroke of the chisel. It's where forgiveness blooms, blooming from the sawdust of imperfection. We learn to mend our errors, to embrace the flaws that add character and to let go of the need to be perfect.

With time, practice becomes a whispered song, my hands and tools moving in a familiar dance. My students watch, eyes wide with wonder, as I conjure intricate shapes from mere planks. Minutes melt into effortless mastery, a magic trick born of years spent in the company of wood.

Maybe "master" sounds arrogant, but it's simply shorthand for a lifetime of dedication. Each project, a testament to the quiet conversations held in the workshop, each piece a whisper of forgiveness for past stumbles. So, with every job, I pour my heart into the grain, leaving behind not just furniture, but evidence of a life shaped by wood and whispers.

That's the story I want to tell, not just of tables and chairs, but of the dance with sawdust, the whispers of forgiveness, and the quiet satisfaction of a life lived in dialogue with wood.

We are obsessive about human beings making things by hand.

“We don't value craftsmanship anymore! All we value is ruthless efficiency, and I say we deny our own humanity that way! Without appreciation for grace and beauty, there's no pleasure in creating things and no pleasure in having them! Our lives are made drearier, rather than richer! How can a person take pride in his work when skill and care are considered luxuries!

We're not machines! We have a human need for craftsmanship!”
― Bill Watterson, There's treasure Everywhere.
