A degreed engineer by trade, Tom spends his days pushing paper, and doesn't have the opportunity to scratch the maker itch.

Nights and weekends is when Tom is able to spend his personal time doing small woodworking and metalworking projects in his home shop.

We dive into his back story, if a college degree is the right choice, Tom's current crowdfunding campaign to restore a Southbend lathe, and where he sees the future of the maker movement.
