You don’t need a $10,000 shop to make something awesome.
My first forge was a hole in the dirt powered by my sister’s hairdryer (she was thrilled). My first “blade” was a half-melted railroad spike—and I was absurdly proud of it.
I’ve been obsessed with making ever since: blades, axes, tools, pipes, spoons— anything that belongs in Middle-earth.
If you share that itch to create, you belong here.
Here's what's inside:
☕ WEEKLY COFFEE HOUR — Bring your ideas, questions & projects. Get the guidance and encouragement to stop waiting and start making.
⚒️ BUILD CHALLENGES — Seasonal builds/ themed challenges (spooky-season Dracula Bowies).
🌎 COMMUNITY — Share your work, solve problems & learn alongside makers around the world.
💰 JOIN FOR FREE - I will comment and respond to all of your posts/ projects you share with the community.
👀 PROJECT PLANS - upgrade to $15/ mo for access to all project plans/ lessons.
Start where you are, with what you have.
See you in the forge. 🔥
