Tonight’s EDM challenge was to draw something that I’ve made. It has been a long time since I actually made something from scratch. Well, something interesting anyway. I built a book case two or three years ago, but that’s just a big box with shelves. I welded a set of hearts into a paper weight five or six years ago. Lately I spend my time customizing things I buy. I busy myself hot gluing pencil cases and sharpeners into field sketch pads. But I made this back scratcher a while ago. It’s a large comb nailed to a 5/16″ bamboo rod. I wrapped some wire around the business end and slipped a piece of copper tubing over the other end to keep the rod from splitting out. I need to make a new one. I wonder if that would qualify for the thing-a-day challenge? A step by step wip on making a back-hair-braider is creative *AND* usefull.
