Building, Tinkering, and Making at Home
Set up a home maker space and start building projects with everyday tools.
You don't need a full workshop to start making. A small table, basic hand tools, and good lighting are enough. Begin with simple projects: a wooden shelf, a leather keychain, a custom lamp.
Learn one new technique per project. Watch makers on YouTube for inspiration and instruction. Keep a project journal to track what works and what you'd do differently.
Making is thinking with your hands.
