Tonight is the big release we’ve been waiting so long for! The “Another Work is Possible” book pre-order and film are available at midnight (Eastern time). We began planning the logistics of the Carpenters Without Borders project way back in March and spent most of 2019 focused on preparing for and recovering from this intense event. Finally, late tonight, this work culminates when we open orders to share this incredible event with you. In only a matter of hours you will be able watch the film, and the book will go to the printer after final copy editing (Book delivery will be late March). We had an M&T family screening of the film last night, and it was a blast....

In this episode of our podcast, Mike and I discuss our handmade Christmas gifts. This time of the year is a great excuse to get into the shop. We’ve been making gifts for years, and there are many ideas one could try out. We spent this episode discussing several of our projects in order give you ideas for the next gift you give.
Handmade gifts are a special thing. It is not an easy to commit to making gifts instead of buying them, but it is rewarding to invest yourself in something that will mean so much to those you love.
It’s that time of year again. In a little over a week, most Americans will be gathering with loved ones to feast and celebrate over all their blessings. It is a time for rejoicing and a time for love. And consumerism. Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, hordes of people will get up early to spend gobs of money to buy Christmas gifts. I know you know it well. At its best, it’s cash, cash, cash for lots of cheap merchandise. At its worst, it’s violence and riots. I don’t know any other way to say it: this modern tradition is absurd, and we want nothing to do with it. So we encourage you to opt out with us. On November...
This podcast episode (listen above) is all about filling you in on our incredibly intense summer. Between the workshop with our six students, Issue Seven shipping out, and our hand-tool-only timber frame blacksmith shop, we’ve been out straight busy. Also, in this episode, meet Grace, our new team member. You’ll hear our enthusiasm for the whirlwind of events that happened as well as the new projects we’re working to wrap up now! A new book, a documentary film, and another apprenticeship video all on the horizon!
Big news, folks... this is the last call to order a copy of Issue Two! We now only have a couple hundred left in stock, and once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. We get emails all the time from folks begging to order a copy of Issue One even though they know it’s now out of stock. We expect the same will happen with Issue Two. So if you’ve delayed to pick up a copy, we recommend doing so now right here: https://www.mortiseandtenonmag.com/collections/magazine/products/issue-two It’s a great issue with a ton of amazing authors including George and David Sawyer, George Walker, Chris Schwarz, Don Williams, Timothy Garland, Zachary Dillinger, Skip Brack, and Peter Follansbee. It’s also the issue...
Autumn in Maine is a magical time. There’s frost in the morning air, the leaves are growing more fiery by the day, and we’re hauling firewood into the house with increasing regularity – all reminders of the changeability of the season and the fast approach of winter. It’ll be here before you know it. Every October, we head up to Leonard’s Mills in Bradley for their Living History Days – me and my family as visitors, Joshua and his family as historic interpreters. It’s a great time to wander around the working sash mill, weave at one of the old looms, eat some beanhole beans and reflector-oven biscuits, and take a wagon ride. We usually run into old friends there, and...
I rarely post anything about my personal life on the internet, but for those of you who are interested to learn about my background and life (in more depth than I’ve ever previously disclosed), Lost Art Press has just published a “Meet the Author” blog post about me on their site. Kara is an excellent interviewer and writer, and it was an honor to have her write this up.
Honestly, it feels weird making this much of my life public knowledge, but there it is. I hope you find something in my story that resonates with you.
