Wow, this guy has an odd view on “organized”, items seem to be corralled into loose groupings but there’s almost no real work surface. He probably has to spend equal time cleaning a space off as he does doing the intended project. And speaking of projects, with the pile of tools that need attention, he probably doesn’t have a lot of time to spend on them. However he certainly does cover the spectrum of crafting and repair, everything from metal working to wood carving, electrical and leather work. It is a bit disturbing though, to see the empty beers and ash. It’s 2010, doesn’t he realize; A) the dangers of power tools and alcohol? and B) how explosive wood dust can be. He’s either invincible or foolish. He does make good use of those old coffee cans, but I wonder if his wife knows about the pottery he’s using to hold his brick-a-brack. Judging by this partially complete shelf, he does good work, I wonder if that’s pre beer or post beer. Any way I guess I know who to call if I need a metal-leather-wood, book case with accent lighting.
