Things I know well enough I'm willing to teach. Contact me if you'd like to discuss:

  I work with knots and line from many disciplines: Sailing knots, climbing knots, arborist techniques, securing loads during transport, surgeon sutures, crocheting/knitting/net-making, kinky knots, fishing line knots, wire rope assemblies used in marine and crane applications, etc etc.

Projects I've [mostly] completed:

• A rope-making device — wood with metal rods
• A marlinspike that fits my keyring — steel, hot forged

Projects I'm working on:

• various papercraft / papercut things for the laser cutter
• "I made this with a..." panels — A series of rectangular panels, each manufactured with a different method, with a word or two etched/cut/etc onto the panel's face, describing how it was manufactured.
