Wood Working, Magic

I grew up learning wood working from my Dad and Grandpa, I still building items, rooms, homes today. I create content of my work and others. Doing carpentry give me a different way of seeing how to fit and piece everything together in a 3D format. Also growing up I been learning lots of magic and using those skills & principle to help add value to the content.
