    All About the Vibes with Mike Holmstrom

    In this episode we're talking with Mike Holmstrom from Bodie Designs Woodworking who will be teaching many of the turning classes at MontCo Makers. We discuss all the kinds of classes, the atmosphere we're trying to create, and what it takes to make a profit at farmer's markets. We are also getting extremely close to securing the bank loan to open, and we're keeping our eye on a May/June opening date! Classes, shirts, and gift cards are now all available from the website! That is the best way to support us! www.montco-makers.com @MontCoMakers @bodiedesignsww @WhoaShopWoodworking @MakeItWhileYouFakeIt

    MakerspaceCamp

    MontCo Makers is now actively in talks with the bank, and the business plan and financials are looking incredibly positive! We're making this thing happen, and it's getting closer and closer to a reality. This episode talks about the joy that is Maker Camp and how we're going to build out MontCo Makers once the facility is secured. Also my wife's here, and that's always a good time! ;-) @MontcoMakers @WhoaShopWoodworking @MakeItWhileYouFakeIt https://www.montco-makers.com https://patreon.com/MontCoMakers

    Building the Community with Paul Mencel

    I talk with Paul Mencel, founder of Philadelphia Table Company and his new venture Hand Crafted Success, where he teaches other woodworkers how to build their business. From his beginnings in a small garage to his current 10+ employee operation, he has build his business to last and he may be bringing some of those classes to MontCo Makers. https://gofund.me/df3c7969 https://www.montco-makers.com https://instagram.com/handcraftedsuccess https://instagram.com/philadelphiatablecompany https://instagram.com/montcomakers https://instagram.com/makeitwhileyoufakeit https://instagram.com/whoashopwoodworking

    The Good, The Bad, And The Really Ugly

    We talk about all the tools that we recently bought that almost fully outfits the makerspace, and the really unfortunate news about our current shop. We're knee deep in planning, almost ready for the bank, and have enough tools to open! Thank you to everyone who has donated to make this possible!! https://www.patreon.com/MontCoMakers

    Creating The Right Vibe With Dillon from DillonWoodworks

    We're talking with another future instructor of MontCo Makers, Dillon Mitchell from Dillon Woodworks! Not only is he one handsome sonofabitch, he makes some incredible turnings and commission projects that he ships all around the world. We're talking about creating the vibe in the shop, and what we're going for, and what's overkill for the business itself. www.montco-makers.com www.patreon.com/MontcoMakers @dillon_woodworks @montcomakers @makeitwhileyoufakeit @whoashopwoodworking @jrosserdesign @michaelpietras

    Talking Knife Making and Jailtime with Graz!

    I got to have the one, the only, Graz on the podcast this week! You know him from the hit Netflix show Making Fun and we spoke with this very talented maker about his knife skills and what time is like behind bars, as in, Instagram jail. You might see him possibly maybe perhaps in an upcoming show, but most certainly will see him at MontCo Makers sometime in the future teaching a knife making class. www.grazmakes.com @GrazMakes @MontcoMakers @MakeItWhileYouFakeIt @WhoaShopWoodworking www.patreon.com/MontCoMakers www.patreon.com/GrazMakes
