  • Woodworker Tonda Thompson perfected her craft during a summer of racial justice protest

    Woodworker Tonda Thompson perfected her craft during a summer of racial justice protest
    Portrait of Tonda Thompson, of She Slangs Wood, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Octoberr 2, 2024. Caleb Alvarado for The Guardian as part of New faces of Small Business series .Tonda Thompson got her start repairing her own furniture, and now she's got a waitlist six months long.

    When the racial justice movement broke out in the summer of 2020 after the killing of George Floyd, Thompson opted to spend time making tables in her garage instead of protesting in the streets. "I was at a point in my life where I just wanted to heal," she said.

    By the end of 2020, Thompson realised she had a business on her hands, and incorporated her burgeoning timber trade into She Slangs Wood.

    Taking the strain: the last sievewright – in pictures. Steve Overthrow is the only traditional sievewright trading in the country and possibly the only one making sieves and riddles by hand worldwide.
    The last sievewright. Steve Overthrow discovered sieve making in 2017 after reading a red list of endangered crafts. He learned that sieve and riddle making had recently become extinct after the last practitioner, Mike Turnock at Hill & Sons in Derbyshire, had retired. Steve decided to revive the craft and set about researching the skills required and began making his own bespoke tools. There was very little information except a Guardian audio slideshow showing Turnock at work, which he watched over and over until he was able to make his first sieve from his workshop in Langport, Somerset.

    Taking the strain: the last sievewright – in pictures. Steve Overthrow is the only traditional sievewright trading in the country and possibly the only one making sieves and riddles by hand worldwide.
    The last sievewright. Steve Overthrow discovered sieve making in 2017 after reading a red list of endangered crafts. He learned that sieve and riddle making had recently become extinct after the last practitioner, Mike Turnock at Hill & Sons in Derbyshire, had retired. Steve decided to revive the craft and set about researching the skills required and began making his own bespoke tools. There was very little information except a Guardian audio slideshow showing Turnock at work, which he watched over and over until he was able to make his first sieve from his workshop in Langport, Somerset.
