Hello societas - glad to find this pod. I collect and restore hand tools, mostly wooden planes and chisels from flea markets, and document the process of bringing them back to work. Sharpening is meditation; rust removal is cardio.

Work days I teach high school woodshop, which means I get paid to share the thing I love. Nights and weekends are for my own projects: a cedar garden bench this month, kitchen knives next.

Also into chess by mail, old maps, and identifying trees on my street. If you post about craftsmanship, teaching, or making things last, I would love to follow along.

@Dima and Mara continue to do their great work of showcasing these amazing projects and people who do a lot of good work for animals, plants, nature, and us eventually.

Great job!
