What is this place really?

The Scorched Tavern isn't really scorched at all. In fact, it's not even a Tavern!

It's just an idea I had for a neat name for an engraving/woodworking business I cooked up. Come with me on my my journey as I learn how to make these products. So far it's been a blast but there have been some struggles.

The first thing I had to do in order to start my adventure into engraving was to purchase an engraving machine. Of course. Truth is, I had no interest in engraving.
