Story

I'm Thaddeus - I grew up on a farm, running combines and fixing tractors, leading into a career as a mechanical designer/engineer. I have always loved all things related to fabrication. When I was 10, my grandfather taught me basic woodworking - from then, I've been learning from many others along the way.

I came back to the faith in part out of a great respect for the Church's writings on economics and work. Naturally, I came across the Catholic Worker movement - and the artistic work of Ade Bethune. Simultaneously, I joined a Byzantine Catholic parish. My work is largely a marriage of these styles, and entrenched in a love for the theology of things - of the Created world.
