Maker Lounge Podcast

Today I have a co-host in the lounge. Maker Conversations is not only the name of her podcast, it’s her persona. She loves talking to all kinds of amazing and talented makers, and yet she wanted to have me on her podcast last week. We had so much fun over there I asked Tiff Marchand to co-host with me today.

His logo may be the only one I’ve seen with a spyglass, but I’ve been spying on his stuff for a long time, and today he is going to give us a Glimpse Inside of his business and how he got started. This maker has made so many french cleat tool holders and other projects, he single-handedly created the Baltic birch shortage. Chris with A Glimpse Inside joins us in the lounge for a great conversation about how he formed his business and some of his earlier projects.

If you want to know how to properly say Cah-haht or Smaht, this guy is your tutor. You may have seen him making a commode or working a grinder on the Netflix show Making Fun. This guy makes ZZ Top seem like ZZ Bottom and gives me tremendous beard envy. Not only is this blue-collar maker great on camera building taco launching dinosaurs and glitter farting unicorns, this woodworker makes some amazing signs, furniture, and other custom projects. He’s everyone’s homeboy! Derek from Malden joins us here in the Lounge.

She is an ex-cardiac nurse, now small business owner, but her days of working on hearts isn’t over because she has captured the hearts of makers all over the world. I’m talking about the one and only Christy with Oakhill Millworks. In Christy’s words, this guy likes ducks, not getting haircuts, and is always “Fixin’ to” do something! I agree with all of that because this duck-lovin’ maker always keeps us on our toes trying to figure out what he’s going to make next. Nick with Stated Woods Co is here as well.   

While the world was locked away in their homes in total isolation, these two stepped out and brought makers together. What started in 2020 as a small, friendly competition amongst makers, has now grown into its fourth season of collabs, and I’m going to try to get the exclusive on this year’s theme. Today I get the chance to talk with Nick and Christy about the Maker Collab.

Whether you’re looking for hard wood, or for someone to stick your wood in a kiln for proper treatment, today’s guest in the lounge has your wood covered. His mustache measures approximately ⅓ of a board foot and is as impressive as his business portfolio. “Save the Trees” appears to be this guy’s motto. The only thing cooler than the slabs he makes is his name. Matt with M2 Lumber is with me in the lounge.

Jimmy Diresta joins the Maker Lounge Podcast! 

From toy making to dumpster diving in shows like Trash to Cash or Dirty Money, today’s guest knows how to get his hands dirty. He’s an author, inventor, and flea market fanatic. He dabbles in just about every medium there is in the maker community, from leather and metal to wood, glass, and everything in between. He was born holding a DiResta ice pick and the world’s first GoPro in his hand. Nick Offerman called him the love-child of Robin Hood, DaVinci, and John Henry, and yet, he agreed to be on my podcast.

You may have seen him on a show called Assembly Required or in a variety of YouTube videos, building things from a van with an attached BMX ramp or a massive banshee hamster wheel. The only thing his welder hasn’t touched is a bad time. I’m pretty sure his motto is "Don’t Die." He also couldn’t decide what to make, so he called his business Make Everything. Chris Zeppieri is in the lounge.

Welcome to the year end holiday hangout episode. In the Lounge, his dad owns 3 peacocks, one of them is called Scott and the other two have feathers, Scott Walsh is here…and lastly, this guy has not only mastered the art of foley in his videos, sometimes he does woodworking. Mr. Suman is here. Today we’re having a holiday feast, and Jon with Lincoln Street Woodworking was supposed to bring the food, but he is walking uphill in the snow, both ways. Unfortunately Jon couldn't join us for the episode, but that didn't stop us from having a great time. 

In this episode we talk about the holidays, goals for 2023, and play a new game we called the ScottSuman game. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did recording it. Make sure to check out the after show where we talk about YouTube and content creation with some tips from the guys to level up on YouTube.

Lindsay Murphy began metalworking after her career at NASA was over in 2011. She found herself falling in love with blacksmithing and started making custom art pieces and jewelry. Lindsay participates in makerspaces here in the Houston area and mostly sells her handcrafted pieces online through her website. It was great getting to talk with Lindsay and learn more about metalworking and how she runs her business. Her bio is "Merging nature, art, metalwork, & a hint of geek into sentimental jewelry & collections." You should definitely head over to the link below to see some of her amazing creations.

You would know him if you saw him. From his towering stature to his bent-brim snapback. With over 170k YouTube subscribers, this woodworker teaches others how to build a variety of projects. Since 2003, he has been serving in the US Army, traveling around the world, and dishing out orders as a Drill Sergeant. Today, he’s here in the lounge, and I’ve never felt more inclined to do a rep of pushups. Jason Bent with Bents Woodworking is today’s guest in the lounge.  

In this episode we talk about how Jason got started in woodworking, how his projects have evolved, his fascination and internship with Festool, and the future of Bents Woodworking.   

The format looks a little different than normal because we had some technical difficulties with the recording platform, so there isn't an after show for this week but there are lots of other exclusives on our Patreon page for Patrons only.
