Episode 06 - If Yoda Was a Maker
Episode 6
mardi 15 juin 2021 • Duration 01:04:07
Past projects they are most proud of, advice for new makers, and what would Yoda say if he was a maker? Join Jake and Sean as we talk about some of life's biggest questions around making and woodworking. Also, Jake nearly joins the Dark Side.
Quick Tip from Sean: when buying a square from the "Big Box Store" take it over to the tile section and find the most expensive tile in stock. Use the tile to check that the square is actually square BEFORE buying it. This will save you a TON of frustration on your next project.
Tool of the Week (Recommendations)
- Sean: Invest in quality sandpaper and abrasives. Such as Mirca brand: https://bit.ly/3iGvgE6

Episode 05 - Instructables - is it still a thing?
Episode 5
mercredi 2 juin 2021 • Duration 01:00:33
Improper tool usage, Instructables, and pizza, these are a few of our favorite things! Join Jake and Sean as we talk about some of life's biggest questions - and whether or not a drill should (will?) be used as a hammer. Also, Jake gets a little carried away picking on Ohio...sorry Ohio.
- Instructables: https://www.instructables.com/
- Pizza Cutter Kit: https://bit.ly/3fuIIJu
Tool of the Week (Recommendations)
- Sean: Make note of how each of your layout tools are designed to be specific dimensions. This saves tons of time with layout out cuts, or measuring parts for a project. (ex: the blade on your square might be exactly 1" wide, 1/8" thick. And the base might be exactly 1/2" wide)
