This week I found myself making over 130 “Christmas puddings” — but not the edible kind.
They’re fuel briquettes, made from waste materials that would otherwise be thrown away. It’s slow, messy, very hands-on work, and oddly satisfying. This batch was made in February, which felt ridiculous enough to be worth filming.
I’ve been changing how I edit lately — quicker, rougher, more voice-over, less polishing. Instead of staying quiet while I work, I talk you through what’s going on in my head as I do it. It feels more like working alongside a friend than making a video for the masses.
The video is here:
If you’re interested in making your own fuel, using workshop waste, or just enjoy calm, honest making — you’ll probably enjoy this one.
