Josh King’s Royal Blue Woodworking is named after his first dog, a blue Great Dane named Bud. King studied at Red Rocks Fine Woodworking College in Colorado for six years and had the opportunity to learn from, in his words, “eight Michael Jordans.” King has been doing Fine Woodworking full time for 12 years, but Bud has sadly passed away. King says that fine woodworking, in a word, “isn’t an IKEA thing.” Each piece is handcrafted from real wood and joined primarily with wooden joints (not synthetic joints like nails or staples).

There was a time when Friday night meant takeout meals and a movie.You go through the routine of grabbing a menu from the kitchen drawer to order the same thing you always do, then make a trip to the nearest video rental store.It was heaven, with shelves brimming with movies of untold stories and adventures, as well as old favorites that I rented countless times because they were so good.These days, you’re more likely to order Deliveroo, browse the Netflix options and decide there’s nothing worth watching.Maybe I’m just nostalgic about the old days, but even though convenience has made…
Keeping people healthy in cities, especially poorer areas, is hard, and a simple, effective and scientifically proven prescription for improving health is to plant more trees. The idea of planting more trees in urban environments is so simple, affordable and effective that it’s hard to understand why we aren’t doing it more urgently, especially when there is so much evidence showing how much good trees do. Environmental epidemiologist Mark J. Nieuwenhuysen proposed a simple way to remember just how important trees are: the “3-30-300 rule,” which suggests that for optimal health, everyone should have at least three trees visible from…
