Matt Watts - Joiner
Matt grew up in the same town as me and we spent a lot of our summer evenings at the local skatepark & winters under the cover of a Morrisons carpark skating & BMXing. He was from the generation above me, so I would look up to him & his group of friends who were in bands and had cars to carry ramps around town.
Jumping forward nearly 20 years and last summer I heard Matt had started a YouTube channel as a way to connect with other makers and get out of a solo working funk we all can find ourselves in.
He's built house extensions, plastered bathrooms & fitted out retail shops. Recently he has focused his craft on cabinetry & joinery for residential clients. We spent the afternoon chatting about his journey and the workshop space he has in the Bedfordshire county side.
