Tell us about your current project (or whatever is in your working space) and how it makes you feel.Q2: What’s going on in the background whilst you are making? Silence? Music? Is there something that helps you focus and concentrate more, or something that throws you completely?Q3: We all have tools or equipment that is part of our craft. Do they wear out regularly so you keep spares in stock, or seemingly last forever? Tell us about the extreme culprits.Q4: Do you ‘experiment’ with your making? Trying things that no one sensible would suggest, just to see what happens? Tell us about them, or why you don’t or can’t.Q5: Do you have any Maker dirty secrets? Projects so bodged together that fill you with shame? Dirty hacks that you don’t speak about? Share your secrets!
