Now I’m new at being in front of a camera, speaking in a non native language, so any tips and comments are welcome. ht...
Part 2: From a 200 year old ruin into a workshop - Part 2
Now, how strange it is to be all alone in your workshop, nobody around, just you, your tools and your video camera and still being nervous. Knowing that you are going to share that video with the world makes you feel watched and although you can do it over and over again until you got it right, still your feeling embarrassed while making mistakes.

Part 8: My Summers Woodworking 2x4 competition entry
Oh well, it was difficult to find a 2×4 in Portugal but… in the end we found two 2×2’s which we used to make little side / plant / coffee /ashtray tables.
