We’ll tell you the plan after it succeeds.
This site grew from a few projects:
- “The Secret Manual”, a book meant to be printed and kept handy. It will contain useful tools for everyday life, when electronic devices fail. There will be white-space to add notes.
- Service Manual Fan-Fiction™, a nascent genre of writing that we hope to develop. There are presently two sub-chapters:
- Alternative Version: Manuals with alternative labels and instructions using existing products’ diagrams. The less we knew about the device before we start writing, the better.
- Addenda: Anthropomorphic tales of stripped machine-screws and their strange attraction to left-over lock-washers. No dragons, glitter-vampires, or Bhutanese boy-bands involved.
- Sub-sub chapter: What REALLY goes on in the parts bins at a certain Swedish furniture company that would sue us into oblivion if they read what we claim the kügel bookshelf’s secret is.
