HandWorks ( handworks.co/ ) was the first weekend in September 2023. A gathering of the best manufacturers and boutique makers of woodworking hand tools from all over the planet. No where else can you put hands on and try such a variety of the best made by the highest quality companies and craftsmen.
I was very lucky to save up enough to attend as past events have proven to be generational reference points in other woodworkers careers. Imagine if a circle track racer honed their skills for decades in their home made race car and then given the chance to try out a Nascar. Not only that getting to try all the cars of the field and discovering what features suited their time honed skills the best. Ya, for a woodworker that was HandWorks.
Plus, no better conversations can be had for a woodworking geek than with those who put forth the effort and expense to attend such an event.
So here's my vLog of the event. Sorry for the edit as I did my best with what was recorded. Sound was an issue due to every ones enthusiasm.
