Yew wooden scale for the Windeler stack
I have backed Windeler project when it was on Kickstarter. Nice tool! But it was clearly missing a magnetic wooden scale.
For this project I used the disc sander and pillar drill at Le Grand Atelier (https://www.legrandatelier.ch/) which is part of La Maco (http://www.lamaco.ch/)

Macrame? Triangle Start/End for Alpha
Mixed with the macramé borders video and depending if you remove or not a centre string, the video allows you to make a nice start for 5 to 10 string alpha patterns. Also, if you do not have a bead, just knot a string with a different colour and leave the end behind.

Covid19 wind-Chimes
Since few weeks I am confined with few tools, no real workshop and no way to buy supply. My only available power tool is a drill.
I had few wood rods so I decide to create a virus out of it using my drill as a lathe. I went for a dodecahedron (as regular as possible) with 20 mushroom-like corner pieces to figure the protein.
I first wanted to connect the different pieces using elastic string, however the one I had from my sewing kit where to weak. So I glued everything using string to maintain the pieces while the glue cured.
Once the virus was done I found in my basement an aluminium tube juste below 2m long and decide to use it for creating chimes. I have found a spread-sheet computing tube length on Lee Hite's site (http://leehite.org/Chimes.htm) works perfectly!
