    This guy is awesome. I'd love to see a live steam with a camera pointed down on his bench to see some of this stuff come together. I really love the glue on the side of the table. That's a mark of a true craftsman and real love.

    There exists a dremel, which you can switch on with your foot.
    I'm sure this would be a huge time-saver😉
    And you can hang the dremel-body from the ceiling with a counterweight.

    He creates unique art that no other in world does, so asking him if it's worth it, shows that you (interviewer) has no sense of art and passion.😏

    Please repent and believe the Gospel. The time very short.
    John 3:16-21
    (16)For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (17)For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. (18)He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
    (19)And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. (20)For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. (21)But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
    Romans 10:13
    For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
    Revelation 3:20
    Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
