    Know Your Numbers w/ Angie Benefiel, Holland Leather | Beyond the Workbench #19

    Tax season has a way of making even the most passionate makers stop and question entrepreneurship. In Episode 19, Magnus sits down with Angie Benefiel: the leatherworking CPA. The two have the honest conversations most of us have been avoiding. Angie brings a rare combination: a leatherworker running her own brand (Holland Leather) who also works with accounting for a living.The conversation covers what actually separates a hobby from a business in the eyes of the IRS, what deductions most makers are leaving on the table, and how to think about bookkeeping when your materials come in hides, and your inventory does not fit neatly into a spreadsheet. They talk through entity structure, what an audit really looks like, and why tracking your mileage alone could be worth more than you think. Following the conversation, Odin reflects that much of this applies directly to scaling a leather business, including the ongoing challenge of managing inventory without tying up all your cash on the shelf.This episode was timed intentionally for early March, as many makers are working to figure out their taxes. Whether you are just getting started or already running a shop, there is something here worth hearing before you file.Disclaimer: Nothing in this episode is tax advice, rather conversations about accounting. If anything from these discussions resonates with you, we encourage you to discuss it with your tax professional.

  2. Fear Less, Build More w/ Dennis Forrester, 21 Grams | Beyond the Workbench #18

    Fear Less, Build More w/ Dennis Forrester, 21 Grams | Beyond the Workbench #18

    What does it look like to chase an idea with everything you have, even when it does not fit the mold? In this episode, Odin and Magnus sit down with Dennis Forrester, founder of 21 Grams and creator of the Tattooling machine, to talk about what happens when inspiration hits and you refuse to let fear talk you out of it. Dennis's story starts with a therapist telling him to find a hobby. No pressure, no business, just something for himself. What came out of it was a product that did over a quarter million dollars in its first year and eventually landed a manufacturing partnership with Weaver Leather. The conversation covers the full arc: from accidental invention to patent, from hand-assembling cartridges at a kitchen counter to collecting royalties. Along the way, they dig into what it means to enter an industry as an outsider, how to push through the noise of people who want things to stay the same, and why the biggest risk is usually letting fear win before you ever get started.

  3. Starting a New Business | Beyond the Workbench #17

    Starting a New Business | Beyond the Workbench #17

    In this episode of Beyond the Workbench, Odin and Michael draw on their tech and product backgrounds to talk through what it actually looks like to launch something new. Using the launch of LearnLeathercraft.com as a real-world case study, they explore how early decisions take shape, how ideas move from concept to something usable, and why clarity around the problem you are solving matters more than getting everything perfect on day one. The conversation digs into who you are building for, how to avoid getting stuck in endless planning, and when “good enough to launch” is the right call. They talk candidly about feedback, iteration, and the tradeoffs that come with waiting too long, especially for small teams and solo makers. The result is a grounded discussion about applying product thinking to support creative work, rather than turning it into corporate busywork. -------------------------------------------- LISTEN TO THE PODCAST: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1boT5ABgRjIDEGyi7bEbjd Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-the-workbench/id1816987809 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beyondtheworkbenchpodcast All Platforms: https://www.beyondtheworkbench.com/ FOLLOW BEYOND THE WORKBENCH: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beyondtheworkbench TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beyondtheworkbench Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/Beyond-the-Workbench-61576775047322/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@beyondtheworkbenchpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/beyondtheworkbench HOSTS: Odin Clack - https://www.instagram.com/odinleather Michael Magnus - https://www.instagram.com/magnusopus Beyond the Workbench casually dives into the world of leathercraft, entrepreneurship, and modern maker life.
