‘An imperative how-to for creativity…I adore this book’ Nick Offerman

Adam Savage – star of Discovery Channel’s Mythbusters and one of the most beloved figures in science and tech – shares his golden rules of creativity, from finding inspiration to following through and successfully making your idea a reality.

Every Tool’s a Hammer is Adam Savage’s chronicle of his life as a maker. Through stories from forty-plus years of making and moulding, building and breaking, this book is a toolbox of problem solving, complete with a shop’s worth of notes on the tools, techniques and materials he uses most often.

This book will save you a few mistakes (and maybe fingers), as well as help turn your curiosities into creations. You will find everything you need to inspire you to build, make, invent, explore and – most of all – enjoy the thrills of being a creator.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Ce que les critiques en disent

'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)
'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 must read for any and all creatives

Loved the more personal style Adam read this in, and the content itself resonated like it came from my own brain. A must read(/listen) for any type of creative!

Awesome Book, and Exactly What I Needed

I can’t begin to say how much I needed this book. And I had no idea when I got it that it would be so helpful in all the crappy struggles I’ve been having for the last decade in trying to find time, energy, room, and motivation for my endless and (seemingly) hopelessly stalled-out creative ventures. I didn’t even read the book’s description beforehand—I bought it because I’ve always loved Myth Busters, and I saw this come up on Audible and thought, “Hey! Myth Busters guy! He’s awesome! Hell yeah, I’ll listen to him talk about all the awesome stuff he’s done!” What I ended up getting was not only a great time listening to an enthusiastic and wildly talented guy talking about how he’s gotten to where he is today, but an invaluable window into the long-term evolution of a professional’s creative process and an unbelievable amount of things that I can try myself in order to end the stalemate with my own brain and its endless supply of creativity-based excitement, doubt, frustration, fascination, impatience, and ideas (SO MANY IDEAS). I can’t stress enough how helpful listening to this has been for where I’m at right now—I’ll be leaving it downloaded on my phone for a while, for a great deal of rereading/listening. LOVE this book. Get it for the entertainment, stay for the insight into how a person might develop just about any form and scope of a creative life 👏❤️

a must read for every handyman/woman

Really well read by Adam. This should be a must read for all High school students and all manufacturing support. Lessons everyone can use somewhere in life.

A Superb Listen!

I absolutely loved this book, and it was made even sweeter by the fact that it was narrated/read by the author himself. Much of Adam’s wisdom & knowledge is very much applicable to other domains outside of making. As someone who has built an awful lot things out of cardboard over the years, I very much identify with this maker movement. ✂️📐
