Helping you on your Journey of making things
There are so many interesting things to learn in this world. I’m Dug North. I love to make things and share what I have learned with others. Some of the topics that interest me most include the following:
Friction fire-starting and other wilderness skills
Making and using hand tools, especially vintage and antique tools
Projectile throwers as small as slingshots and as large as trebuchets
Wooden mechanical sculptures
Metal, woodworking, and other old-school fabrication methods
Mechanical clocks - spring and weight riven
Ancestral skills such as flintknapping
Check out some of the things I’ve made and some of the resources I offer to help you on your journey of making. If you are interested in creating fire with friction, be sure to check out my upcoming Bow Drill book.
