This week on Whatcha Makin', Alex Duffey and Alex Adams tackle a classic maker's question: buying tools – new vs. used! Joined by special guest Lee Dumond from Busted Knuckle Woodworks, they dive into the pros and cons of snagging deals on Facebook Marketplace versus investing in premium brands. Hear their candid thoughts on "buy once, cry once" and how to decide what tools truly meet your shop's needs.
Beyond the main discussion, discover their latest projects, including speaker gifts for AWFS, wooden notebooks, line drawings of houses, and optimizing 3D prints. They'll also reveal what's "breaking" in their shops (from stubborn filament to broken knees and drum sander woes!) and share their sales strategies from recent markets and events. Plus, don't miss "Whatcha Watchin'" for inspiring woodworking, CNC, and maker projects from the community! Tune in for practical advice, humorous anecdotes, and invaluable insights into running your creative business.
