    Is it Worth it? | #107

    Is it Worth it? | #107

    Sometimes doing a project yourself just isn't worth it.  Or is it?  We're talking through the decision making process of getting things done.  Maybe the risk vs reward just isn't adding up. Or maybe you weigh all the options and it's worth doing it yourself.   Tim talks about hacking an IKEA wardrobe and Josh's table saw of death.

    The bonus segment is back!  Josh tells us all about the horrific tornadoes that ripped through Kentucky and other states on December 10th.  If you'd like to donate to the relief effort we suggest doing so HERE.

Small Engine Repair

Great segment, learned some very useful tips on how to trouble shoot carburetor issues. Tim and Brandon are really good at breaking things down into layman’s terms. Thanks for the information.

Perfect if you love to DIY

This is a great podcast and it really does encourage you to take on diy tasks you normally wouldn't. I traded baby chicks I hatched for an oil change lesson so I can start to change the oil in my truck myself and save $. Even the topics that don't apply to my situation where I live are still worth a listen. These guys are right - once you take on a diy task it gives you more confidence to do other jobs you normally might hire someone else to do. Five star podcast.
