that chap is an inspiration to me
i discovered his website about a year ago and it has helped focus my personal goals outside of work. Due to his enlightenment i'm drawing up plans for a small extension and plan to build it myself. After that i want to build my own 'wrench monkeys' style bike when i have more space.
It's nothing too flash but from small acorns....
The Premise:
* Life is short.
* There is lots to do.
The Process:
* Shoot your TV!
* Do Stuff! Bonus points for using power tools.
* If you screw up while Doing Stuff, make sure to screw up spectacularly, followed by Full Public Disclosure. Expect abuse to follow.
* In the unlikely event that you do not screw up while Doing Stuff, at least get some good stories out of the experience.
The Payoff:
It will be worth it in the end.
