It was an honor—and great fun—to be interviewed by one of my heroes in the maker/prototyping space, @bre Pettis, and fellow audio geek/Kickstarter, @ZachDunham for the Bantam Tools (cool name, even cooler company/product) podcast! Thank you Bre and Zach.
In the final episode of The Edge's second season, we speak with mathematician and engineer @Pretotyping about using “pretotyping" to test ideas in the market before launching them.

Pretty awesome seeing people assemble their own @thepublicrad_io at #DigitalFactory19 today. Awesome work, @formlabs @tulipinterfaces @RHRobotics @Vention_io (and of course @ZachDunham and myself ;)
It's pretty neat to see @thepublicrad_io included in this. Shout out to @pencerw who built our radio production line that looks not too dissimilar to what's pictured here.
#DigitalFactory19 will feature a pop-up factory built by Formlabs, @tulipinterfaces, @RHRobotics, @Vention_io, & @awscloud. See how attendees will be able to walk down a real factory line and build a customized radio that tunes into their favorite channel bit.ly/2LiaRGz
Spirograph + svg tracer + fusion =?? Attempting some guilloche patterns at work. @scientiffic have you tried this?

You've got to pay something back so that everyone can have a chance. A 2% tax on the wealthiest fortunes can let us provide universal Pre-K, universal free college, cancel student loan debt for 95% of Americans—and still have a trillion dollars left over. #WarrenTownHall
We had fun last week milling this topographic map of Peekskill. Maple is so nice to machine!
As homage to our new location in Peekskill, NY, we milled a topo map of the region on the Bantam Tools Desktop PCB Milling Machine. We cut into locally sourced maple using a 1/8" flat end mill for the roughing and a 1/8" ball end mill for the finishing pass. We have arrived! #CNC

In this last episode of Season One, @bre, co-host of The Edge, talks about the early days of @makerbot and shares memories of influential people like Phil Torrone of @adafruit, @maltman23, and the folks behind the Hackerspace Design Patterns at @CCC_CH. bit.ly/BantamToolsPodcast

Woah, just mistakenly played the Edge podcast from @bantamtools and a lo-fi house mix on Spotify at the same time and it sounds incredible! This track to the latest episode spoti.fi/2GCjeZv
I'm hoping to make interviewing @_ECorbin an annual event! Last year she was a guest on @the_prepared and blew my mind. This week she shares more about her work @Materiom on our podcast @bantamtools bit.ly/BantamToolsPodcast

No more printer for UV solder mask! 100% on mill. Better quality. Much faster!
<$5 in mods to mill + software changes. Now the mask is nice & even, not blotchy with crumbly edges.
@bantamtools I just upgraded your mill, how about we make it so everyone can get access to this?

I just had a furloughed worker come visit me in my office.
“I work for HUD,” he said. “My family is hurting now that I’m three weeks without a paycheck,”
“but please - please don’t give into a wall. I don’t want the political tool of withholding my paycheck to be legitimized.”

It's been a ton of fun working closely with the digital fabrication community @kickstarter the last three years. One of the things we've been working on is to help folks do a better job at demos.
I'm super grateful to @andreas_bastian from @autodesk for working to update his test geometries originally released with @make.
