Every Tool's A Hammer

‘Adam has drawn for us an imperative how-to for creativity that goes well beyond scissors, saws and glue, to include vulnerability, self-confidence and self-deprecating humour. I am aware of no human outside of fiction more qualified to pen this rousing paean to making. I adore this book’ – Nick Offerman * Star of Parks and Recreation *
‘Careful, close, often repetitive work lets the brain wander back and forth, from the micro-task literally at hand to the bigger problems, solutions, insights and emotions that we usually drown out with stimulus. Believe me when I say: when you’ve made as many Blade Runner blasters as Adam Savage has, you’ve learned a lot about yourself. Adam has stocked up a lot of deep thought and deeper wisdom: about how to make things large and small, decisions large and small, and how to make sure you’re making the things that matter. Consider this book as a 3D print out of Adam’s brain, and be glad you have it’ – John Hodgman, Bestselling author of The Areas of My Expertise
‘This book is creative rocket fuel. Adam is a master maker, and this might be his greatest creation yet - a funny, vulnerable and soulful dive into the beautiful mind of passionate artist. It’s about making stuff, but there is also philosophy, insight, and, most of all, inspiration. This book is so cool!’
– Ed Helms

‘A personal look at the importance of creativity in all walks of life’ * The Verge *
‘The handyman dad will love this book…Adam Savage challenges readers to take a deeper look at what inspires them when it comes to ‘making and molding, building and breaking’ offering his own tips and tricks along the way about his favorite techniques and tools’ * O, the Oprah Magazine *
