- This old tenor banjo is almost ready to play music again. New fingerboard, stick reset, and isn’t it a pretty thing? #workasusual
- I was just a kid when I started up my shop in Canal Park. I was 24 years old and I stepped into a new world when I opened for business. I learned a lot along the way. Some 16 years later and things are moving along. Work is good, but I’m bound for something even better. I recently accepted a job at Bad Axe Tool Works where I’ll be building the world’s finest handsaws for Mr. Mark Harrell. I’ll be closing down my shop in Canal Park in the coming months, but don’t despair! I’ll still be doing instrument restoration and repair out of my home shop. I’ll also finally have time to get to all the custom building projects people keep requesting. @badaxe6 @michael_of_mountains

This was a very good look into you and your work as well as your fellow artists Mike.
Thanks, Brian. I had a good time doing it, even if it was a little bit nerve wracking…;)
I can imagine being nervous. Karen is a very good reporter. I watch this program from time to time. I just wish they would bring back Venture North Again. She was good on that program too. Always nice seeing local stories. Especially when I know some of the people that are on those programs.
