I have been a “maker” and craftsman most of my life. As a teenager, I worked part time making cabinets. I did metal stamping in my 20s, but eventually found my way to a career making fine jewelry for almost 25 years. Later, I ended up making orthotics for well over a decade before being laid off during Covid. “Useful gadgets” have always been a joy to me. Now, I’m using my tools and talents to support myself, as well as this endangered planet, with your help. My success with my shop, SolarTreeGoods, will depend on the satisfaction and feedback that customers give me on Etsy. Thankfully, Mark Thoson
