This is my first test-drive in the new studio space since moving.
After nearly 8 months it's good to get back to the bench though felt much like a graceless first date.
To get reacquainted I pulled out some old familiar bits to dink around with.

Honestly, I felt like an awkward teen not sure how to proceed or what to do with my hands.
It eventually turned out to be a sweet 'first date'. I like the quiet, wabi sabi-ness and the subtle patina of the copper which doesn't quite come through in the photo

today's outcome |
Oh! - and it's cold out there in that garage! In my barn-attic studio
I had a propane heater/blower to knock the edge off the chill.
At 20-something degrees out there my two little heaters are struggling to catch up.
