This is a real one for me, friends. It's long. It's rambling. Hell, it might not even make all that much sense. But it is honest. I can tell you that. And I hope there is something in there that you can learn from. And as always, thanks for watching :)

Advice from a master woodworker.

28 June 2025 at 12:43

πŸ’Ύ

Aled Lewis, a career furniture designer and maker, sits down with me for a conversation about his career, his impact on the craft, and his advice for his students. Aled was my teacher in the 9-month program at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship back in 2012-13, and much like Robert Heritage before him, I owe a lot to him as an inspiration.

I hope you glean something useful from this interview style conversation. And I hope it inspires you to go make a thing. And, perhaps, be fearless about it.
