HackSpace magazine
I’m not very good at woodwork. I just kind of muddle through,
which is fine when you don’t have to make anything too
strong. However, I really like the look of well-made wooden
items, and would love to have a few more personalised bits
around the home. I don’t feel the need to throw myself into
fine woodworking (much as I envy those with these skills), but
build well enough to show off the look of this natural material.
This month we’re looking at helping people like me who want
to take the step beyond ‘bodging it together’, and start making
things that look good. I’m looking forward to putting these
skills to good use in the coming months. Now I think of it, it’s
the perfect time to start work on some garden furniture – it
should be ready by the time the weather warms up.
Of course, we haven’t abandoned the electrons this issue, and
we’ve got a great range of digital making, including fighting
robots (page 128), 3D printing (page 92), and possibly the most
illuminating bin in the world (page 52). Whatever form of
making you enjoy, we’ve got something for you. Turn the page
for your monthly dose of inspiration, skills, and reviews.
