Please allow me to introduce you to my quarantine project - my workshop. I assumed it would be a two-three month project. I failed to anticipate my lack of enthusiasm to work outside during our annual six months of gloomy Seattle weather. Then, for the six months when the weather does cooperate, I failed to properly account for the number of weekends I'd be traveling for my boys' youth sports tournaments and such.
My quarantine project ultimately took five years!
It was all worth it though as it's my pride and joy - next to my family, of course.
I spent years producing professional Halloween haunted attractions and had plenty of set building experience, but this was my first, true construction project. I met regularly with Professor YouTube to learn how to do it all. Would've been nice if AI had appeared on the scene a few years earlier. Would've saved me a ton of time, but I digress.
My workshop consists of the usual assortment of sanders, saws, and drills, but the real work comes to life on my OneFinity CNC machine. If you have a sign or some other project in mind, please reach out. I'd love to discuss it with you.
Remember what I said about my Halloween background? Does the workshop give off dark, gothic vibes? I was kind of aiming in that direction. Black and gray was my goal, but unfortunately, the pandemic made materials crazy expensive and crazy hard to get, so I had to settle for brown aluminum siding instead of gray as it's all they had.
