Twenty years ago, after 20 years of marriage, I found myself divorced and living alone for the first time in my life. A bit of a shock to the system. Anyway, I decided I should prepare myself for my new life and thought I might need some tools for ... I had no idea what ... but one day I might find out. So, I headed out to a DIY store and bought myself this tool box together with a few tools to put in it. They still look as good as new. Strange, that. An electric screwdriver is obviously a lot more useful but, hey, it's good to have a colourful tool box buried in the garden shed. :)

The National Slate Museum is located at Gilfach Ddu, the 19th-century workshops of the now disused Dinorwic quarry, within the Padarn Country Park, Llanberis, Gwynedd. The museum is dedicated to the preservation and display of relicts of the Slate industry in Wales
I was perusing an antique store/furniture refinishing place the other day. Fairly dark and stuffed to the brim with stuff. I wandered into the back and was faintly surprised to see a man working. Very friendly guy. We played the name game for a while...Richmond is like that. The light was good and I asked if I could take his picture. He was reluctant. I don't usually meet with reluctance but I really liked his face...a bit grizzled...unshaven with white stubbly hairs that glinted in the light from the glass door. So I pushed it a bit. He told me that I wouldn't be able to capture him but I could try. You know. He was right. I snapped and snapped and snapped and never could get the essence of his energy. An animated talker, the frames on my camera all froze his face in odd expressions. He said he was used to that.
Forty minutes later, I left with a couple of gifts (one old skate....I was thinking of Eve N. Less when he offered it to me...and a bag of coffee beans for my husband) and no portrait!
These tools are sparingly used. DIY is not really my forte, and I prefer to use my hard-earned income to pay a professional to do jobs properly. I don't even know what the thing on the right is (don't worry; I don't really want to know).
Taken because on 2 April 2022 the Hereios of the We’re Here! Group are shooting DIY Home Decor.
The house I live in is a little over a century old. Built by my great grandparents back in the day. The staircase to the second floor has a white wall-to-wall carpet that dates back a few decades. The carpet was well glued to the stairs, but it was also on it's last leg as it had started to fall apart here and there so earlier today I took this scrape and began removing the old carpet.
Inside the Pillar Granary at the Heritage property, "Brickendon", was a table with a large assortment of tools and oddments from the farms working days.
I took this as a 5 shot HDR, as there was only daylight coming through the main doors and some odd windows about the place providing any light, and was thus rather dim.

These are my light painting tools, nothing fancy or expensive but I've had a lot of fun with them.
If your interested in light painting check out this new light painting group Shining Light on Cancer.
An earlier variation on the image Diagonal Pattern, from two images back.
Though I prefer to use masks, I finally edited my brush for this by making a brush and using it with the eraser tool.
GIMP has a tool called the Paths Tool, which is like the Pen Tool in Adobe. I used it to create the brush used in this pattern.
Masking is easy; clipping masks are rather confusing. Just what I need to keep my mind occupied : )
The wooden tools pictured here were beautifully made by hand by master woodworker Frank Weisner in Australia. I have waited a few months to get them, but they are certainly worth the wait. To give an idea of scale, the sewing frame in the center is only 7 inches wide. The most coveted tool is the lying press and plow on the left, which is used to trim the edges of the book block before the covers are added. The standing press will come in handy to apply the initial pressure necessary after glueing the covers. The other tools on the right are a corner rounder which is not much used in miniature bookmaking (it was sitting on the shelf so whatthehell), and lastly my Schärff-Fix leather skiver which is a must have tool for leather binding.
