Maker Made Podcast

Ty talks about wholesale and his recent experience providing templates to large online retailers!
Doggy was under contract to buy a house, but it fell through; the seller couldn’t provide a clean title due to a bankruptcy in their past. So, he’s back to square one with house hunting and looking for shop!

The guys answer a question from @cadycreekwoodworks about router bits and flush trimming. Ty offers some insight on the router speed settings that he uses when he flush trims - Doggy leaves his router on full throttle at all times, often to his own detriment. Ryan, thank you so much for writing in with a question!

@Grabo.tools - The Nemo GRABO revolutionized the way construction professionals lift, carry and install heavy and awkward items. GRABO can lift tiles, natural stone, wet cast concrete pavers and many sheet goods used in general construction. This highly popular and trusted power tool, lives up to the promise of "Heavy Lifting – Made Easy”. GRABO is an ideal lifting tool for natural stone, rough patterned tiles, countertops, glass, diamond patterned steel (checker plate) and even slightly porous materials such as plywood and drywall. GRABO creates a powerful vacuum, and has a safe lifting capacity of up to 375 pounds. The ergonomic design provides maximum work efficiency. It is lightweight and can be easily carried around in a tool box. It's portability, simple operation, and performance make it a game-changer for professionals in the building and construction industry. It is also great for moving furniture and appliances. To lift any flat slab of solid material, simply turn on the GRABO and place it straight on the surface. Once the vacuum pump is activated, it creates a strong suction and firmly attaches to almost any surface, rough or smooth. This makes lifting panels or slabs, or even objects of different materials much easier.

Listen in on this week's episode to hear Ty and Doggy discuss some fun things happening in their shops!
The guys talk about how much of their personal lives they share with their followers and how they “be themselves” while running public businesses.

Maker spotlight of the week is a good friend of the show, Charlie from @kollarhardwoods on Instagram!

The guys chat about what they'd do for their business if they were given $20,000! They also talk about a few different kinds of stains/finishes and their experiences with them.
Doggy took a little vacation and is still doing whatever he feels like in the shop - end grain boards and drawing projects for his future house. As his closing date nears, he is getting in touch with some cool sponsors for his future shop! Ty finally took a day off and watched some serious Netflix. He has some cool table bases in the queue that he plans to test out a new finish!
