0:04:03 What is the true cost of entry to owning a mill? After looking at a lot of Mini Mills online, I started watching videos reviewing them. One thing I noticed was the array of gauges that were being used to determine runout and true the mills into a decent spec. When I started shopping for gauges for machining and other accessories, I realized the cost of entry was much higher than I thought. What do you think is needed to get started and what is the true cost of entry for getting started with machining on a mini mill?
0:13:48 Do you ever build something silly, just to cheer yourself or someone else up? I know about the coffee maker and other fun greeblies, anything else?
0:14:17 I wanted to pass along a question that my brother wanted to ask you: "One of my hobbies is to make physical, interactive puzzles for the Dungeon's and Dragons games I run. When creating a puzzle, I often hand the players a physical object that they need to scrutinize for clues. Do you have any tips or resources you would recommend for how to guide an audience's attention when they look at physical object up close?" Thanks for all you do!
0:20:37 How do you find out about the different sales where you purchase used tools, etc?
0:22:29 I just started my small business and I’m having an absolutely awful time organizing my workflow. My space gets so messy. Do you have advice on how to streamline production and organization?
0:26:10 Did Jamie actually give you his Beret after you shot it during the Shooting Hand Grenades in Midair episode? If so, do you still have it or what did you do with it.
0:31:46 I'm facing two projects with similar deadlines. One is "fun" while the other is "hard". How should I balance working on these?
0:37:00 I'm a person who happily tells everyone about whatever I'm working on, regardless of how early in the process it is. Do you think it's ever too early to talk about a project ? Do you have difficulty keeping things under wraps when you're excited about stuff you're working on?
0:42:17 What’s your most favourite thing you’ve 3D printed this year?
0:43:38 I love hear you talking about your kitchen and how much you love to cook. The egg omlet video you did several years ago is still one of my favorite videos of yours. You have done great tool tip videos for so many shop tools - If you had to do a tool tip video in the kitchen, what would it be youtube.com/watch?v=1dGBRGtyzX
0:46:12 Creation is a very personal journey, and you have spoken about the aspects of creating as going on a journey of experience. Does the act of sharing the act of creativity diminish or enhance the journey? I sometimes feel like completing a piece of writing is the beginning and that sharing the creation is the finish line.
0:52:24 ​​How do you walk the line between being a generalist, but not being a "know it all"?
0:54:43 When you're at cons, fans like to bring things that they have made to show you. Has anyone ever brought you anything where your first thought was, 'how are you not in the industry?'
0:58:50 ​​When is time to walk away from a project, and admit defeat? Or is there ever such a time?
