This post is less about the art and more about the tools. I made an ugly cutting board a while ago and never sold it. When I needed a board to draw on I grabbed it and drilled some deep holes in the top edge for holding pens.
I keep saying I’m going to go in with a router and make a little divot in the upper right corner of the board for my eraser. But I haven’t yet.
The question: do you have any fully custom gear you use? Something not available in stores or something that fills the place of something in stores that you just made yourself?
That’s awesome! Really enjoy the wooden aesthetic with your pencil/pen slots. I’ve only made large pencil holding bowls out of splinting material, but they really help in keeping everything more organized.
