The Three Planks - Episode 2

Episode 2 of The Three Planks Podcast explores the unseen side of craft — the work done under pressure, behind closed doors, and often without recognition. We talk about: * building a custom coffin to a tight deadline * restoring and rehanging historic paintings * clearing warehouses of antiques * working on Grade I listed buildings * why patience, trust and judgement matter This is a conversation about responsibility, quiet professionalism, and the emotional side of craft — when the job matters far beyond the materials. 🎥 Watch this episode on YouTube: 👉 https://youtube.com/@thethreeplanks 🌐 Follow The Three Planks on social media: Instagram 👉 https://instagram.com/thethreeplanks Facebook 👉 https://facebook.com/thethreeplanks YouTube Channel 👉 https://youtube.com/@thethreeplanks Stay connected with The Three Planks across platforms for behind-the-scenes content, updates, and bonus material.
