A Maker’s Maker
It’s hard to imagine someone who is more genetically predisposed to being a woodworker. From school days he knew it’s what he wanted to do. He looks forward to and generates his own challenges – even mistakes are a source of joy because they can lead to new and often complex processes. He’s worked like crazy to build a business that’s paying its way after six years, but really it’s all about the enjoyment he can get from it. When too many orders build up he puts taking on new work on hold, so the stress doesn’t interfere. Even his self-confessed OCD-ism works to his advantage, because he can surrender to the passion of throwing himself into the task at hand.
Who is this maker’s maker? His name is Nick Pedulla. He lives in Sydney and I recently had the pleasure of talking to him.
What is it you like most about your day job?
I like that I get to create on a daily basis. The fact that I get to turn my ideas into a reality and get paid to do it still blows my mind.
