Built a lumber rack (aka ‘the garage yacht’ bc it floats around the garage) over the past 2 weeks. Swipe to go backwards through the process. I just finished the bins and piled all my wood on it today. Here’s to bringing order to chaos!!! 🍻 I took some inspiration from @3x3custom for the design, but I started with making a steel skeleton for mine. Thanks for sharing your ideas! https://www.instagram.com/p/CPrbdEUBkHO/?utm_medium=tumblr
I have been chipping away at this armchair build for awhile. Finally got all the joinery lined up and glued it a few days ago. Next up: oil and finish it and then help @joyfire sew some box cushions (or maybe I’ll just have to stay out of the way🙃). https://www.instagram.com/p/CHuXYT0nlhz/?igshid=biec02eo3sf9
Vibing on the C# Minor with a little help from the E on top of the other pan. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFYKie6HUU5/?igshid=1pb03vveu1k61
Finished this handpan last week. Just like the last one, this one took over 6 months to build due to not having much time to spend in the shop. Glad it to finally show it off a bit. It’s has a brushed on brass transfer finish on top with a glossy clear coat. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFX2ULuH0BC/?igshid=19c71p8cf9p0k
I am very fortunate to have the opportunity and resources to make things, like these wood pieces I made in my lathe. The process clears my mind, finishing things is deeply satisfying, and progressing and learning new skills feels good for my brain. There is a 10in diameter shallow ash bowl and a walnut stick vase. Hope you all are healthy and doing well! . . #turnedwood #woodturning #funwithpowertools #ashbowl #walnut https://www.instagram.com/p/CEf3u-kA0qk/?igshid=1t4ferwvsf8cx
Been pretty busy with the last few stages of my PhD program lately so opportunities to spend time at the workshop have been rare. I spent a few hours tuning this handpan this weekend and it’s coming together nicely. I really enjoy tuning steel. It’s literally a process of creating harmonies where none existed before. There’s something very satisfying about that. Each oval shape vibrates in three frequencies when activated and tuning requires those three frequencies to be in harmony. If one is off, the whole note is bad. . . #handpan #handpanmaker #hangdrum #metalwork #steel #percussion (at The Blue Lot) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAnrAoUgXo-/?igshid=1h3tqx02xwlao
I finished tuning this #handpan last week. For a few days I was struggling to get one of the notes to sound how I wanted and doubted if it would ever be able to tune up good enough to call “finished.” By staying focused, taking some calculated risks (using an air powered hammer late in the process), and listening to what the material needed more than what I wanted, I was able to complete a pretty sweet sounding piece of steel. The workshop continues to teach valuable life lessons! I often apply my workshop lessons on things like patience, humility, and focus to other areas of my life, like the PhD dissertation I’m currently working on. It’s important to have hobbies, not just side hustles that we commodify and drain of the love and passion, but actual hobbies that we give time to outside of capitalist calculations and consumerist tendencies, that we do because it is just a satisfying thing to do. Anyway... thanks for reading the transcript to my Ted talk at TedX: My Living Room 2020. :) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9cjiETH6X6/?igshid=pyl3augso9c6
This #handpan, once the glue dries and I finish it up, is always going to be a special one for me. I started it last summer, 9 months ago, but soon after I placed all my spare time endeavors on a back burner while I went on the academic job market as I entered the final year of my PhD program, focusing everything I had on achieving my dream of being a full time, tenure track professor. Well, a job was got and I’m back to beating metal on the weekends! So playing this drum will be a symbol of achieving long term goals, of getting lucky when things far outside of your control align in your favor, and staying focused long enough to be ready for those opportunities when they come. May your glue dry so your vibrations can sing loudly into the ether! Thanks for reading my Ted talk! Also, big congrats to @berniesanders and his volunteers for the strong showing in NV today!

I’ve been busy and haven’t had much time to play in the shop for the past few months. I finally carved out some time to visit my tools and made some progress on this handpan. Feelin good! This’ll be a D Phrygian scale with 9 notes. . . . #handpan #handpanmaker #hangdrum #metalwork #steel #percussion (at Gibson Handpans) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2c34K2gmc2/?igshid=1vz2p54qt6zeg

I visited @onelonginhale and @jdrum14 some days ago on my last road trip. I made them this handpan last year and one of the notes had gone a little sharp so I brought a hammer and knocked it back in tune. I asked the vibration to play together nicely. Here’s a little morning jamming by the pond. . . . #musiciswigglyair #handpan #handpanmaker #hangdrum #percussion (at Nevada City, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0Jg6o0gwcH/?igshid=1gnqm9nr4jsj0

It’s detail and patina your own handpan day at the Gibson Handpans shop today!! Thanks @7directionsalchemy for contributing your creativity. I hope you get some enjoyment out of the pan.

I’ve only been able to work on tuning this #handpan in spurts of a few hours here and there. It’s fun to hear the progress.
