Workshop notes.
A personal build log — bamboo fly rods, woodworking, coffee roasting, and whatever else ends up on the bench.
Build process
Splitting culms, planing strips, glue-up, and finishing — the Tom Morgan Hand Mill class notes.
Rod tapers
Taper tables and design tools for planning a blank before you touch a plane.
Rod Binders
Garrison and Smithwick binder references, plus the 3D-printed and design-study builds here.
Rod Builds
Per-rod build logs, start to finish.
Woodworking
Furniture plans, shop builds, printed tools, and the tools worth knowing about.
Coffee roasting
Roaster setup, remote logging, and profiles from the other thing I tinker with.
Hydroponics
A 3D-printed tower in the garage — parts, pump and pot, pH/EC targets, seed starting, and grow-light setup.
Fishing
Trip dossiers — Western NC, Colorado, Yellowstone, and the South Carolina coast.
Miscellany
Mocktails, a CO2 tank conversion, and whatever else doesn’t fit elsewhere.
Standalone pages
Self-contained interactive pages that live outside the docs tree.
CaneDNA
Bamboo rod taper explorer — browse and overlay 874 attributed tapers, stress curves, and Morgan Hand Mill settings. Runs in the browser (WebAssembly).
Mustang & Company
The P-51 and nine other WWII aircraft — anatomy, a working cockpit, escort range, and a filterable hangar.
Salamanders of Western North Carolina
Hellbenders to pygmy salamanders — taxonomy, ranges, elevation and stream gradients, and conservation status for the world’s salamander hotspot.
Couch to Turkey Trot
A compressed couch-to-5K for Thanksgiving 2026 — a checklist calendar with run/walk intervals and a guided timer.
Norway: Huts & Trout
A two-week plan for August 7–20, 2027 — Eight DNT hut nights across Rondane and Jotunheimen, with a couple of easy dry-fly evenings on trout rivers.
Norway: Roads & Trout
The no-huts version — drive Oslo to Trondheim through fjord country: the Sognefjell pass, Fjærland, Nærøyfjord, Geiranger and Trollstigen.
