What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for (and also recommend) Episode 391 with Michael Jarvis of Auxiliary Manufacturing. As a new maker, listening to the two of you talk about freehand grinding vs. using a jig and the idea of using every tool at your disposal, was the single best piece of advice I have received in my few short months of trying to find my way in this new world. Encouraging everyone to do their own thing and not try to be like others really helped me out. It helped me in a way in which I didn’t even know I needed help… if that makes sense. Your time and efforts are greatly appreciated. Best regards, Blake
