From Robin Sloan’s latest newsletter:
Here is Adam Savage’s ecstastic tour of his recently redesigned shop in San Francisco — now home to the last fugitive scraps of the legendary ILM model shop.
You get the sense that for many of the mechanically-enthusiastic — the home drill press operators of the world — the shop IS the work. The artwork, almost. All the little projects, no matter how elaborate, are just excuses to keep the big one going.
Having spent several hours of a rapidly vanishing weekend rewiring my desk setup (and only ordering 4 new cables!) I can probably align with that on a smaller scale.
