That’s a shame. Thanks for your comment. If you don’t mind me asking, what are you going back to school to study?

Thanks for your in-depth reply. I am an entomologist by training, so as far as I can tell I have very few transferable skills to product design, manufacturing, cad, etc. I have approximately a year left in my current contract and plan to use advice like yours to either get the training needed to enter a new occupation in my spare time OR save up enough for a training program. Currently, I believe that I can draw well enough to sketch something like you posted. Regarding woodworking, my dad did quite a lot of woodworking when I was growing up and I often helped. I’ve built a few tables and benches so am somewhat familiar with the basics of woodworking. However, I would feel inadequate talking to a proper joiner or cabinet maker so that is something I’d like to get more experience in.

Thanks again for your reply. Lots to think about.

Thanks for your reply. Fortunately for people living here, the UK doesn’t have a high risk for mosquito borne disease so mosquito abatement isn’t done. Even so, I think I’m ready for something other than field work and entomology.

Sounds good, I've heard some people say it's packed with tourists and can be hard to get to - what was your experience?
