Reviews"Quite some time ago, Kyle Bravo put together a couple of issues of a zine called How2Zine . These zines were so thick they couldn't even be stapled; I think my copies are bound with rubber bands. They overflowed with DIY tips on many, many different subjects. Now these zines have been compiled into a book representing the collective knowledge of a wide array of clever contributors. Just a sampling of topics: self-education, self-publishing, bookbinding and screenprinting, shoe repair, juggling, stenciling, gardening, insulative cooking, solar box cooking, wine and beer making, sex and health, pet care, creative recycling, home repair, and transportation. Yes, that's a lot, and it's only the beginning. This book belongs on the bookshelves of those who don't want to just drive to the nearest box store for what they need. Highly recommended." -Sean Stewart, Newpages, "Perhaps the best known, general-purpose, Do-it-Yourself guide around, Bravo's comprehensive compilation of his legendary HOW2 zines includes information on projects as prosaic as bike-cart building and homebrewing and as potentially controversial as billboard liberation and birth control. An indispensable resource for the DIY 'lifestyle' no matter what your level of commitment to it might be." - Lime, " Making Stuff & Doing Things , the DIY book compiled by Kyle Bravo fell into my lap last summer. I was enraptured by the book, with its guides to doing just about everything under the sun from playing guitar to making toothpaste and by the use of the original layouts. I learnt about Hot Iron Press through the book. Unfortunately Hot Iron Press was in an area of New Orleans badly damaged by Hurricane Katrina and the collapsing levees during the Summer of 2005. I emailed Kyle to see if he would be willing to answer some questions about how Katrina had affected them, their reaction to Hot Iron Press being badly damaged and what the future held after the damage."- Last Hours #13 Interview Introduction
