![]() Being one who values reusing and re-purposing I knew that Nail & Hammer was founded on the very same principles. And being locally owned and operated was another plus, in my books. So, an obvious choice when I set out to find reliable suppliers was this place owned by Allan and Teresa Stalker. So when was the last time you saw a 26” wide exterior door? They are virtually non-existent. But there it was metal skin, foam insulated in a comfy space at Nail & Hammers new location, 525 39th St N. This find was truly a gift! So not only did Nail & Hammer donate this rare door to the cause of placing a tiny house in the Grow Calgary microhome competition - but they cut the door based on design specs I provided. Many thanks to Allan -who loves a challenge- and the crew at Nail & Hammer! When working with geodesic domes it’s always good to have someone around who enjoys the creative process of inventing and building new stuff. :)

Seriously, it would have been very difficult to bury a nail in a hammer but sometimes you just have to believe in yourself more. If not yourself, maybe atleast we all should learn to trust the universe and have faith that anything which is seemingly hopeless or ugly in the present moment are actually stepping stones to something better in the future. I have said this to people a lot of times. I remember reading about this years ago back when I am not this optimistic yet and honestly I did not believe it. So I guess we need to be very patient with negative people. They need it.
