Mercury Stardust is the Trans Handy Ma‘am on social media. Her DIY videos started showing up in my YouTube feed a few months ago. While I‘m not a renter, this books has helpful information in it for all. I like her message of “You‘re worth the time it takes to learn a new skill.”

Finished February 16, 2025.

TheBookHippie I like her so much. 3w
ericarobynreads Yessss! She rules! 3w
Reggie I‘ve never heard of her before. Thanks for putting her on my radar. 3w

What a wonderful experience. Honestly wasn't sure if this would be more memoir or manual. It's definitely more how to and I love it. Savage talks though his moments in his personal journey as lessons learned, and how it's transferable/applicable to all kinds of creatives. He explains why the pain in the ass parts, are so important through personal incidents. He has not just knowledge but wisdom and experience. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? It's not about some specific shiny tool, though he does mention a few, it's about the right preparations, taking it in steps, in the right mindset. I love his emphasis on sharing knowledge and experience, how he expands that to a collaborative element within the book, sharing insights from fellow makers. There are funny anecdotes and observations and an overall attitude of warmth and encouragement. 12mo
Robotswithpersonality 3/3 I don't know how much would be considered beginner/common sense for makers, I think it counts more as perennially useful wisdom, though I'll admit my perspective is that of the maker status I would personally term of 'sporadic hobby class'. I think anyone could find value in it. ♥️

Ferro- equine- So the 'study of iron horses' is the study of trains or model trains, perhaps? That's pretty awesome naming. Horse power indeed!

julesG Trainspotters are sometimes called ferroequinologists too 12mo
