    Summary
    In this episode, the hosts discuss imposter syndrome, a phenomenon experienced by a large percentage of the population. They explore different perspectives on imposter syndrome and how it affects individuals in the maker community. The conversation delves into the impact of imposter syndrome on learning and growth, as well as the relationship between imposter syndrome and success metrics.

The conversation covers engaging in political discussions, imposter syndrome in different professions, building confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome, recognizing mistakes and self-doubt, guessing the secret word, the importance of community support, imposter syndrome as a humbling experience, finding support in text groups and communities, and the role of imposter syndrome in personal growth.

  • Pricing Your Work with Andy, Nick, and Steve

    In this episode, we discuss the topic of pricing your work. We share our experiences and insights on adjusting prices for friends and family, lowering prices to sell projects, and using subscription-based pricing models. We also talk about the design software we use and where to find inspiration for your designs. 


    In this conversation, we discuss pricing strategies and the concept of offering discounts. We share their experiences with pricing our products and services, including how we calculate costs and determine profit margins. We also discuss the importance of valuing your time and ensuring your businesses are profitable. The conversation concludes with a fun game called 'The Price is Wrong,' where the guests guess the prices of different projects. In this part of the conversation, we discuss various pricing scenarios for different woodworking projects. We analyze the pricing of a farmhouse table, an outdoor picnic table, a round table, slate coasters, and a TARDIS bookshelf. 


    The conversation touches on the value of learning experiences, the importance of considering materials and labor costs, and the potential of subscription-based pricing models. Overall, the episode provides insights and strategies for pricing projects effectively.


    I hope you enjoy and share the YouTube video when it is published Friday. Thanks for being a supporter of the podcast.

  • ...and we're back!

    It’s been a couple of weeks since the last episode, and I wanted to thank you all for your support these last few weeks.

    In this episode I’m joined by two of my good friends. One is an actual garage scientist, fellow podcast host, and beard enthusiast. I’m talking about the one and only Luke from Luke in the Garage, and the other is the lord of filament, the man with so many Ds in his name I just call him the Big D, Mr. 3D DIY Dave. We are going to be talking about their experience at the 2023 Catskill Maker Camp, so if you missed out this year, you can live vicariously through these guys, something I have been doing for about 5 years now. We may end up in a bit of a debate, and we will see which one of these guys is the master debater. Luke and Dave, welcome back!

  • The Maker Collab University with Nick and Christy

    Like Buzz and Woody, these two have formed an alliance that inspires Makers from all over the world to join their annual Maker Collab. Now that collaboration has gone beyond the boundaries of an annual competition; some would say to infinity and beyond. If you’re a maker looking to grow your business or learn new skills, my guests today are going to talk about how the Maker Collab has grown to include The Maker Collab University, an educational platform helping you grow your business while doing what you love. Nick (@statedwoodsco) and Christy (@oakhillmillworks) are back!

  • Blake Mcfarland with BM Sculptures

    He once caused an explosion in his garage which gave him an instant facelift. This former Toronto Blue Jays baseball player stepped off the mound in the off season to make tire sculptures, which caught the attention of some big companies like Goodyear, lululemon, and several sports organizations. He was a contestant on season 3 of NBC’s show Making It. He’s a master of epoxy sculptures large and small. Blake Mcfarland with BM Sculptures is here to step on the mound once again while I enjoy the hour d'oeuvres in the Lounge.


    Congrats to Grant with @dadcrafted for winning the Patreon giveaway this week. He will be receiving a $25 gift card from SurfPrep.

  • 046 - Lasers, CNC, and Social Media Overload

    These two returning guests are a couple of my closest friends in the maker community. We trash talk from time to time, but mostly it’s about our own social media performance. Not only do we have a competition over how much SurfPrep stuff we have, but between the 3 of us we have done enough product reviews to put QVC out of business. Give a warm and awkward welcome to Steve Moseley with Making at Home and Trey Jones with Handcrafted by Trey.
