Field Notes

Slow notes on bread, bicycles and small repairs.

A starter that survived the summer

Two weeks away, a jar in the back of the fridge, and a stiff feeding schedule afterwards. What worked and what smelled like nail polish.

Truing a wheel without a stand

Zip ties, a spoke key and patience. Good enough to get home, not good enough for a descent.

Fixing a wobbly chair, properly this time

Old glue has to come out before new glue goes in. Notes on hide glue, clamps and waiting overnight.
