Ripstop on the Record - How to MYOG: Part 2 | Fears of MYOG with Tim Martino

How to MYOG: Part 2 | Fears of MYOG with Tim Martino

04/27/22 • 54 min

Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, "Nothing to fear but fear itself." Too often we get stuck thinking about fears rather than learning. In this episode, we're looking to dispel your fears about making your own gear. Things like wasting materials, misaligned pattern pieces, and getting physically (and/or emotionally) hurt.
Our guest today is Tim from LearnMYOG. Tim is a highly experienced maker who creates patterns of popular pieces of gear and apparel to help makers approach otherwise difficult projects.

What you don't know about Dyneema®

Send us a text

We ask representatives from Dyneema the questions that DIYers have been asking us. We talk about how bio-based Dyneema is made, why Dyneema is changing ownership, and what's going on with these price increases.
On the phone with us today are William Smith (Senior Sales Manager) and Keith Rowsey (Director of Sustainability). Both William and Keith have been working in the materials department for a while and bring a wealth of information to the table.
