Your attention to detail and sense of aesthetics just blows me away. You always seem to be reaching for a beautiful, finished piece, in both your material/physical pieces and your cinematography. I think that you have the mind of an engineer and the soul of an artist, I applaud you for all that you do.

Thank you very much for the kind comments Raynola

I really dig how you alternate between these kinds of videos, where you show us a more refined glimpse into your artistic process, with the more fun and whimsical style of build videos. It shows you take your work seriously, but not TOO seriously, if that makes any sense. It shows a real depth of passion for the crafts.

At first I was a little bummed that there was no pirate themed story... And then the craftsmanship took over, and boy oh boy I was not disappointed! You made crating an organic shape so easy... But we all know how hard it is!

@skullandspade

Thank you!

Who knew watching metal take shape could be so relaxing? I absolutely love this piece. It is really great to see how the organic forms that look light on the one side can take the weight of the table, similar to the amazing strength of those forms in nature.
