Default Artist or Engineer

Neither artist nor engineer. Ham-fisted amateur would be close to the

My growing up years were spent on a farm, - we were taught to use
whatever we had available to construct something we needed, whether it
be from wood or steel. Function took precedence over form.
Still does for me.
I think those early years helped me to attain the ability to visualise a
number of ways to construct things with regard to what I have at hand, -
ultimately selecting one and building it.
I have never drawn up plans for anything. Doubtless there are those who
would say that the appearance of my work makes that quite apparent : )


You wouldn't by chance be a Red Green fan, would you? :-)
