"Crazy story" not required. Some (if not all) of the posts that have the most value for me personally are descriptions of mundane experience rather than an impulse hook on heated topics or an unveiling of achievement that appears exotic or beyond reach.
Those can be worthwhile to explore too but the magic happens when someone identifies, i.e. links up with various parts of the snapshot you provided.
You just never know what another person will find meaning in, or what will spring from those ideas.
I get a lot of satisfaction when working with my hands as well as creative concepts so I think that what you are doing is awesome, in part because I know how satisfying it can be.
