I didn't have much time at day two of #handworks2023 but Roy Underhill's keynote was fun! He's an absolute treasure.

One of his bits was asking #chatpgt this question: "Write a humorous keynote speech for a gathering of hand tool woodworkers from your own perspective".

The results were incredible (played to us in a robot's voice) 😂

One more photo because now I'm obsessed with the Veritas miniature series. They had a lot of them on display and they are magnificent little things. I mean just look at this tiny completely functional LA jack!

Some more photos for y’all to fomo over.

I had to cut my visit shorter than I wanted to but from what I saw today, #handworks2023 is big!

I will be there in the morning to hear Roy Underhill at 10am if anyone is in town and wants to say hi. Then it’s back on the road to #Chicago. I managed to get one of these spiffy posters though!
