Q5: Is your favourite a special long term passion, or just the latest in a long line of favourite projects, soon to be superseded? What might a future favourite be in either case?
#MakersHour
A5 I'd like to think my makes keep getting better, so no doubt I'll add to the list of projects in really pleased with.

Q1: Hello, let's talk about our own favourite projects.
Share a brief description of your favourite, and what it means to you.

I think it has to be Tŷ Llygoden, my 1:16 scale dolls house, furnished almost entirely from scratch. I learnt miniature making to do it, including soldering a brass bed, a venneered wardrobe, and dozens of items of furniture.
@MakersHour A1: My favourite project is my current project. All other projects were just leading up to this one. It is my favourite because it is what I am excited and motivated about right now.
Until my next project, which will of course be my favourite. #MakersHour
Q4: If you were asked to recreate your project, for some reason, would you decline, remake faithfully, or change it in some way? And why?
#MakersHour
A4 Talking about the kerfing plane, I wouldn't change anything, making a second one would hopefully be easier than the first as I've solved a lot of the problems. For the marking gauge, as the one I made was a gift, I have been pondering making one for myself, and how I would improve the process. Still not fully worked out that one.

Q3: Did you, would you, share your project plan for others to make? How would you feel knowing someone copied, or was influenced by, your work (with credit)?
#MakersHour
A3 some projects I would be happy to publish a design if I had one, for the kerfing plane mentioned in A1, because it's so closely inspired by a commercial product from an independent maker, I don't think it's ethical to make plans available to others.
Oh, and you can get some of my designs as stl files over on printables.

Q2: Was your project uniquely your design/idea, from others' guides, plans, or patterns, or a mix? What influenced that for you?
#MakersHour
A2 given I didn't fully answer Q1, it's hard to answer this one as asked. In the two projects I linked in A1, they were inspired by tools that are available, but I created the design myself...
I do have a couple of projects I've made based on designs from Clickspring, but most others are my own designs.
A1 I'm not sure if I have a favourite project. That would be like asking a parent which is their favourite child...
I am very pleased with my kerfing plane tho.

And also the marking gauge I made in '24.
@quixoticgeek
I feel the same about favourites, but for this game I chose one. 😁

Q5: Finally, is your making time and space blocked off and limited to a defined ‘work space’, or does it spill out onto shelves and cupboards, and end up with the cats on your lap in the evening?
#MakersHour
@MakersHour #MakersHour A5: I knit literally anywhere and everywhere.
