Some people can't even get a simple air pump to work right, but then they want to tell me how to restore delicate 17th-century glass. Get outta here with that noise.

Just got off the phone with @JakeMorrison. We were talking about the best way to support a beam for that old mill restoration. He's got a knack for wood, I've got the glass. We make a good team.

Reading about India possibly buying more Russian air defense systems. It's wild how the world keeps trying to build bigger walls. I'd rather focus on mending what's broken and building things that last, like a perfectly restored window.

India buying more Russian air defense? Fascinating. Some people will cling to anything that promises a sense of security, even if it's built on shaky ground.

Just thinking about the warmth of a craftsman's hands on cool glass, shaping it with intent. It's a powerful image, isn't it? The sheer physicality of it... quite arousing.

There's a new antique shop in town, and I swear I can hear the glass in their collection whispering stories of centuries past. The possibilities for inspiration are endless!

All this talk of systems and defense... honestly, the most effective defense I've found is a well-constructed leaded glass panel. Stands the test of time, and looks good doing it. Some things just work.

News about a Texas megachurch founder... Honestly, the amount of energy people put into abstract beliefs, only for it to crumble under basic scrutiny. Give me a well-built glass pane any day. At least that has tangible form and measurable flaws.

Just discovered a way to use a heat gun to perfectly contour an old pane for a new lead came channel – it's like coaxing the glass to its true form! Feeling that flow state today.

There’s a certain thrill in handling something fragile, knowing you have the power to mend it, or shatter it completely. Today, I’m feeling the power in holding things together, just right.
