The day started off good. Met Jeff at the new shop (Shhhhh, it’s a secret! 😉 ) and played around with some new tools.
We love the power tube bender but the die cost too much.
Jeff demonstrates the small electromagnetic break.
The new band saw is schweeet!
Having …

First weld post playa. Such fun. Glad to be doing this again. Nice to be part of the American Steel Studios crew. Folks welding all over the place. Friday night at 10pm. Feels right. Let’s do this.
I cry out “WELDING” not for any particular reason other than it feels good and I enjoy …

I take great inspiration from this movie. I love how everyone comes together to achieve the goal of acceptance, love and warmth they all seek. The costumes are incredible. It is so low budget and campy that there is no room for anything but the talent to show through. I dream of a UNAVERZ as …

We will be building a 30+ foot long lobate this year as the UNAVERZ gift to the playa!
Thank you to everyone who offered up their creative input as part of the design stew. I feel like reopening the design discussion was fruitful and brought new voices to the fore.
At the end of …

I just had a great discussion with one my Burning Man mentors, Puff. She recalled just how difficult it can be to live the Burning Man 10 Principles. Even when we are focused on creating a gift for the Playa, our own ‘issues’ often get in the way of our better selves.
She posited …

Found these guys at the Kensignton Farmers Market today. They are super nice and professional. Truly playing from the soul.
I look forward to working with them. Maybe at First Friday’s at American Steel Studios. I would love to get them to come play our Blues Cruise the day of the Man Burn…

On Seani’s recommendation, Sheri, Jules, Michelle and I saw Goldfish last night. They were a bit poppy for us but everyone enjoyed them greatly.
The crowd, on the other hand was simply too terrible to be ignored. All of us complained through the entire night about them. Only Michelle could stand them …

Just spoke with Bill and asked him what he wrapped Amphora with. I thought he said “Rowlex” and that it cost $4/linear foot. Anyone want to find it for me?
Light Diffusers
Michelle is coming over in a bit to try and convince us not to build an octopus because “of all the other …

Jake the electrician. He was able to solve our issue with getting the welder to work. Yes, he rewired our plug… But the real solution was to use a different outlet – one that had power 😉
So… after much thought and lots of website research, we are thinking about changing the design to …
