About Me

I love all the finer things of life, not cars, wines and fancy chronographs, but the comfort of one's family, friends you can depend upon, and moments of solitude to reflect on them.

I've worked in finance all my life, but it does not define me. Instead, I am a craftsman, an enquiring mind, husband and father of two.

I've just been given two 9" spin casters and an industrial lead pot.

I used to cast a little for a miniatures maker. One needs to develop a rhythm.

@Imp, I though the entire blog was already a simplified physical sciences primer on slingshots

"BDSM" LOL; what's the sound of one hand clapping. "ouch, ouch, ouch!"

No, I have finally got a handle on how bands work. At least I have the tools and understanding to proceed. In doing so, I learned a lot about life.
