What a timely video. I found myself furiously sawing wood panels on my dining table in my kitchen yesterday, spreading dust everywhere. What I wouldn’t give for a proper shop! This video follows the creation of a Corvo Chair from lumber to finished elegance. Shouldn’t he be wearing gloves? It’s almost like he is using affection to finish the chair near the end—I love his slow, methodical movements!

Speaking of making/crafting/building things, friend of the Fort Dieter Amick is about to graduate from the Industrial Design program up at WWU, and was recently featured in a department vid. These packs are super handy, but I love checking out his sketches and imagining his process in the plastics lab (do they have those?).
