Ares Expedition has been out for a few months already, but it took us a while to get our Kickstarter copies… and then it took me a while to get this video edited… but I wanted to talk about it anyways! I did a 2 player review on The Daily […]
I’ve been designing board games quite a bit lately and I’m having a blast. One of them is Narrow Gauge: Appalachia – a two player game about building railways in the Appalachian Mountains during the age of steam. This game was a blast to develop and test, and I’ve decided […]
I got super excited for the release of Mario Golf Super Rush. I’ve always enjoyed golfing games. They are relaxing and challenging at the same time. A bunch of online friends hyped it up and we expected to play online games fairly regularly… then the early reviews came out and […]
Whoa. Two new videos 5 days apart!? I finally got to play Irish Gauge. It’s been on my shelf of shame for a long while. Game night started back up recently, and this was the first thing I grabbed to take. I love train games. I love Capstone Games. I […]
I’ve finally resurrected the gaming channel and for the first video back, I decided to do a sort of unboxing // review hybrid. I’ve been playing the game digitally for months, and am absolutely enamored with it. I loved the original, but couldn’t find people to play. This time, I […]
This simple custom, diy headboard was built with a few 1″x10″ pine boards, inexpensive LED lights, and an in-set power strip for extra functionality. You could build this in a weekend with limited tools. It’s a great beginner project that brings life to any bedroom and provides excellent lighting that’s […]
I wanted to add some simple flower decor to my guest bathroom. Using a few $2 plants, some rustic pallet wood, and a coffee/sawdust mixture for the simulated dirt, I put together a few in an afternoon. They add great texture to an otherwise boring room! You can pick these […]
I recently bought a new bed from Amazon. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. The mattress is amazing and the frame is attractive (and adequate.) When I bought it, the frame options scaled from about $100 – $500 based on how much custom stuff you want. I decided that […]
I’ve finally decided to take the plunge and open an Etsy shop. I’ve been mulling over these signs for a long time now and how I would go about marketing and selling them. I’ve started and stopped making an Etsy shop about a dozen times, but this week, I finally […]
I’ve been wanting to do some custom sign work for a while now. My mom is a crafty person and does a lot of craft shows throughout the year… I thought having the ability to make custom signs like these could expand her capabilities. I also thought it could be […]
I’ve never really been great with the hand tools. When I was a young maker, in my dad’s garage, I had access to tools. Mostly just carpentry tools, but a few power tools like a drill and grinder. The hacksaw and claw-hammer were my best friends and I made all […]
I built this workbench in 2013 and the one thing it’s always been lacking was a vise. It’s never had a vise of any kind attached… and I decided to change that. I do more woodworking than anything, so I didn’t want a big metalworking vise. I wanted something flush […]
