More about me and woodworking

Passionate About making things and woodwork

Woodwork is a fantastic craft, not only does it offer creativity it allows you to teach yourself new things and most importantly learn new skills. The craft of woodworking offers versatility and freedom as you can make anything your mind can imagine. Personally I enjoy wood turning and learning new techniques as well as making a plethora of projects!

I started my YouTube back in April of 2019, with the aim of providing quality content that helps the new woodworker further their skills as well as diversify their woodworking and help the returning woodworker learn new techniques, processes and become inspired by my work. The YouTube channel was a significant milestone in the creation of the Design and Make brand. Feel free to visit my YouTube channel to further your woodworking as a craft.

I also started an Instagram account in January 2020 to reach more people and provide frequent insights into what I am making and the projects I have planned for the future. Lastly, I also post stories where viewer interaction is encouraged in order to build the Design and Make brand and further the connection with the maker community.
