    Hello again Fellow Windworkers!

    I’ve had several more coffee moments over the past month and it is rather exciting.

    I got my first sympathetic oscillation on the leadpipe yesterday and it felt really weird (in a good way). I felt my whole mouth (even my tongue) vibrating because of how much sound was being produced and with such ease (100 %…[Read more]

  • Thanks, Greg! Means a lot.

  • Awesome Video, Greg! I’ve been a member of Windworks since October and it’s been a very challenging yet very fun experience.
