On this episode I sit down with Vic Tesolin, owner of Vic Tesolin Woodworks. If you want to hear the full story behind how Vic Tesolin Woodworks got started, check out the show archives - episode 165 In this industry, you never stop learning. As your craft continues to evolve, so does your thirst for knowledge.  But when you are starting out, that knowledge barrier - of what you know and what you don’t - is pretty apparent. And it can show up in your earlier work in ways you certainly don’t want it to. That's what happened to Vic, when his commissioned tables, didn’t hold up as well as he imagined they would.

Vic wears a lot of hats. Furniture maker, teacher, writer, speaker, the list goes on. Chances are, if you have spent time reading about woodworking you have probably read something he has written. Being around so many furniture makers and understanding furniture at a deep enough level to not only write about it but to also teach it to others (and let's not forget building impressive furniture in his own right) has given Vic a perspective on the industry that many aim for but not all achieve. A perspective that he gladly shares in this episode. Follow along as we talk about learning to have an ego, how important mistakes are, why showing up can be your greatest skill, and much more.

On this episode I sit down with Brent Biglow, owner of Biglow Woodcraft If you want to hear the full story behind how Biglow Woodcraft got started, check out the show archives - Episode 161 What keeps you up at night? If you are a furniture maker, especially one just starting out, I’m going to bet you have had some sleepless nights thinking about projects that you built being out in the world. People using them and how they are holding up. Early in his career, Brent had one of these moments. A project he built stressed him out so much that he ended up having to do something about it. That story, and the lengths he went to to fix it, is what this episode is about. Learn more at buildingafurniturebrand.com
