Rather than spend another plane trip rummaging through my catch-all carry-on bag searching for my headphones, bumping my head on the seat in front of me every time, I decided to make a small tech-accessory organizer using elastic ribbon and an old vintage book cover.

Do Nothin’ Biochar: Suburban Scale
Since I moved to MN and had to leave my sweet TLUD & Retort stoves in Wisconsin, I needed to find a new method of making biochar for my new gardens.

Getting a wig to stay on your head.
Sew it to your head. Seriously. Well, to your hair is more like it. I'm a stunt performer and I've had to do live fights on everything from stages to the back of moving trucks.
