November bits and pieces
A Little Saw
A mini milestone was hit this week. I completed the last of the saw illustrations for the “A Little Saw” book.
- Bow Saw
- Pull Saw
- Universal Saw
So the next step is to fit the pictures into the text and get the book formatted and out to the reviewers. Amazon have just brought out a Beta “Kindle Create” tool to help with the formatting for Ebook. This looks quite interesting and as I already use heading styles it should work well.
Repairs
I’ve also been doing a little DIY around the house. A stainless steel grill was added to the tubledrier vent to discourage the mice from visiting over winter. I also cemented the front step which was a bit wobbly. It’s good to get that kind of job done before it gets too cold as the cement does not cure properly.
Making
Last week we made a Rube Goldberg machine which has shown to be very popular. This week I have been doing some reading on powering up the pelitier for the mini dehumidifier, and been sketching some ideas for the case.
It’s also worth mentioning Dominic’s #makevember manifesto the idea is to do a mini make using a new technique for every day in Novembmer. This kind of exercise can improve your making and creative techniques. Although it’s the 6th, it’s not too late to join in.
