Hey, I’m Chris — also known as Connector. Welder by trade. Maker by instinct.

I join things. Materials. Ideas. Sometimes people.

Sometimes it holds. Sometimes it breaks. Just like life.

I'm not here to be a guru — because I’m not one.

So why this blog? Not to tell you how to do things. But to explore why we do them.

I believe your own approach is worth more than copying someone from YouTube with better lighting and a sponsor.

Think about it: You can watch the Kardashians all day — but would you want their life? Exactly. What I believe in:

• Don’t learn the effect. Learn the process.
• Don’t judge by the shine. Judge by the strength.
• Don’t believe everyone online. Trust your own hands.
• Mistakes are honest. They teach more than tutorials.
• Everyone works at their own pace. You don’t need speed — just presence.
• There’s power in silence. That’s where focus lives.
• Share if you can. Receive if it’s offered.
• Clean up when the job’s done — it shows respect.
• No boasting. No bashing. Just quality.
• If you say you “know” — prove it by learning more.

That’s why I post here. Not as an expert, but as someone who's still learning — and thinking with their hands.

If something here sparks a thought, solves a problem, or just makes you stop for a second — that’s the win.

Because I’m not here to be your expert. You already are. You just need to unlock it.

May the force (and the weld) be with you.
