About us
I started All the Wrong Tools as an independent publication in November 2025. I write from north of North Branch, Minnesota, about working with wood and steel, building saunas, keeping sheep, and following Jesus.
My intention is to focus on writing and photos, and for now, to not include video. In this new age of AI, this journal is a simple attempt to give everyone something original to read. Enjoy – and please enter your comments!
