I am fascinated by this line:
I design my own tools like custom prosthesis to prevent muscle or joint pain in my forearms and fingers because of my regular drawing practice.
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and pain from the shoulders down is a sad fact of daily life. I am lucky enough to be able to still use a keyboard, but had to give up most things with pens or brushes. Now you inspire me to get more creative with my tools.
Your book itself is lovely and your photos of it are wonderful. You sure have a way with the macro shots!
I hope the trip is everything you hope for I will be glad to see the results.
I would love to design DIY (Do-It-ourself) drawing prosthesis. Feel free to share with me if you develop your tools, it will give me joy. I am also interested in the idea of drawing machine or generative drawing (made by an autonomous system). Here is one I made with tape, an electric shaver and a pen. It requires a smooth surface and produces circles.
Here are other ideas :)

Every bit of that is mind blowing. Thank you so much, @enbyx. LOVE your pen and shaver. Beautiful lines.
Henri Matisse! that stick is so long. Wow.
I need to stop thinking of my limitations! You have given me so much to think of.
Since you mentioned Singapore - I will be there on Monday Jan 28 and back on Wed Jan 30 to Malaysia. I'm staying in Little India and not mobile. But if you are there and want to come over and eat or something, I would love to.

Glad you like the ideas! I won't go to Little India. Enjoy your stay.
