One of the things I’ve realized as my kids get older… managing house keys is a nightmare.

Keys get lost. Codes get forgotten. Someone always gets locked out at the worst possible time.

So I swapped our side door over to the new Lockin Veno Solar , and honestly, the palm recognition might be my favorite feature. The kids can get in without carrying a key or remembering a code, and it’s been surprisingly fast and reliable in everyday use.

Install was straightforward, and the solar charging is a huge plus for me. This door gets a good amount of sun, so I’m not constantly thinking about battery life or pulling the lock apart to recharge it.

Feels like one of those upgrades that actually makes daily life easier instead of just adding more tech for the sake of tech.

They’re also running an Early Bird promo right now — pay $1 and get a $120 discount. Details are on their website lockin.com.

First off I’d like to congratulate myself for not running the over myself. But also, I’m giving up on the digital ones. Go magnetic all the way. The Kreg Tool one is easy, affordable and is foolproof.

update and state of the union. HQ is about a weekend of organizing away from being back and operational. Thanks for the patience! Also, please excuse the mess, I’m still shocked at how much stuff I was able to put into that old tiny shop. You’d think it would be easier to find space for it all in a bigger shop.

It’s been 5 years since I first made this rolling chalkboard and dry erase board combo for Intern Tilly and now Intern Hattie gets to work on it. Full are still up on the website under “How to build a rolling classroom divider” which looking back that was a terrible title for SEO…

Working on designs for the new office. It’s currently an echoey acoustic nightmare even with a rug and furniture in place. What do you all think of an acoustic with and lower cabinets?

WHO ARE YOU KEEPING? As I’m putting my shop back together and pulling tools out of storage I’m realizing that I no longer need dozens of impact drivers and other power tool duplicates on display. Who are you using for your day to day tool brand? While it was cool to have multiples of each power tool when I was tool testing, it just doesn’t make sense anymore for me. You’re gonna see more in line with hand tools, and day-to-day tools on the new set up once I share it. And the batteries… So many batteries…

New is coming together with paint (peppercorn) lighting and the custom and I built. Now to figure out what to put on the walls or maybe custom bookshelves? TBD.
