As somebody with a wooden house and the feeling to learn carpentry and spend less time programming I think this is brilliant. Combining minimal design with a hacker and DIY ethos is brilliant. Kudos, bookmarked; hope I can find the time to tinker with the designs.

I recommend making time to build at least one piece of furniture. I did not use hyperwood principles, but I built my own computer desk and workbench to my specifications and I cannot imagine ever buying a premade work surface again. It is rewarding, helps you think about a project from both a production and use-case perspective, and unlike my programming/tech troubleshooting efforts, the results are very tangible and something I can touch and see every day, lending to a lasting sense of accomplishment.
