Stories, software, and a life lived across several worlds
Reading this you may think we have a tick for trailers. And all get painted yellow. Well… Somehow this is true. We build this one a few months back when a friend who owns a teak plantation asked us to help him thin the plantation. It never got used behind a horse which was the original intention. The terrain was too wet by the time and we did not want to risk a broken horse leg or other kind of accident.
Now we are in the dry season and a device with wheels might help us to move logs - which are 2m in length - around. This thing is balanced and should move forward easily regardless of the load put onto it. Tomorrow we’ll see how it will perform.

About me
Hello! My name is Stephan Schwab.
I build and rescue software, and I write fiction about the human side of how it gets made. Here you’ll find my stories and novelas, notes on craft, and field notes from a life lived across several worlds.
Working with software teams is what I do professionally — see how on caimito.net. You can also read about my experience since 1986.
