Working with other makers that have complementary skillsets to your own is a great way to learn new skills and grow your business.  And we’re not just talking about content creators here. As a product maker collaborations can take different forms like working with designers or artists.  We’ll talk about some ways we’ve collabed in the past and give you some ideas on how to get started if you’re looking to do your first collab.

The sponsor of today’s episode is 3M. Are you the fastest weld grinder in America? 3M wants you to prove it. They’re looking for 12 metalworkers to go head-to-head in the second annual 3M Clash of the Grinders at this year’s Fabtech conference in Chicago November 12. 

Go to 3M.com/PodClash to enter. 12 grinders will be chosen to compete in a grind-off, taking down three 4” welds. One with a fiber disc, one with a grinding wheel, and one with a flap disc.

Whoever does it the fastest wins the grand prize package, including a Speedglas welding helmet and 3M Cubitron II grinding wheels and discs. Not to mention bragging rights for a year!  Go to 3M.com/PodClash to sign up.
