Podcast appearances and mentions of brett mcafee

I talked to Brett McAfee, mostly a blacksmith, about his journey as a maker and artist. He shares about how his teachers affected his thoughts and perspective on creativity and problem solving. We cover chaos and uncertainty as a source of inspiration and the spectrum from entertainment to art. There's a good bit about video games and we hardly mention Steve at all. Find Brett on Instagram @skullandspade13, Youtube, and his Podcast with Al and Steve, Fools with Tools where you can hear more about chaos just about every week. Sorry Mark Adams, not this time.

Brett Mcafee (@skullandspade13 on instagram) has had an adventurous life so far. From his upbringing in Kansas to his first circle of Hell in Las Vegas and on to a 4 month circle of Hell filming a reality show traveling through the southern hemisphere- Brett has made it through with plenty of more circles of Hell to go! He embodies an adventurous hero joining crews, seeing the world and giving it his best. I very much enjoyed hearing his wild stories and most of them made me nervous while I listened.

This episode is probably the most handsome podcast you will listen to..... In this episode I talk with Jørgen Stray an amazing craftsman and metal caster. We hear how he got started in his niche craft. Talk aluminium bananas. Touch on the difficulties of selling what you make. And he shares some tips and tricks of the trade.

In this episode, I rant about how makers are more important to me than what tools they're using. TL;DR: makers using tools I don't own doesn't discourage me from watching their videos just because I can't personally relate to that tool or method. I don't usually watch makers' videos for the exact project that is featured; I usually watch because I enjoy the person doing the project, their perspective, and their approach.

My cousin Jeremy joins me for this fourth episode, interviewing me extensively about my recent weekend at the Catskill Mountain Makers Camp. We cover my experience there (particularly at the forge), along with a brief dive into our childhood and how Jeremy's in-progress "garage with a house attached" is coming along. In this episode, you'll hear quotes from Jimmy DiResta and Alec Steele: • http://makingitpodcast.libsyn.com/episode-229-jimmy-made-a-laser-bandsaw • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCZ0QkYMaOU Along with shoutouts to Jason Figueiredo, Jessie Uyeda, Brett McAfee, Possibility Studios, Paul Jackman and Steve Pelligrino: • https://www.instagram.com/darkstateforge/ • https://www.instagram.com/ijessup/ • https://www.instagram.com/skullandspade13/ • https://www.instagram.com/possibilitystudios/ • https://www.instagram.com/jackman_works/ • https://www.instagram.com/pellegrino_cutlery/ And as always, awesome music from Ampletunes: • https://ampletunes.com/downloads Thanks for listening! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bernbuilt/message

We would bet that the majority of you have noticed how the maker community has started to bleed over a bit into the main stream. While we think for the most part that's a good thing, we wonder if it is being given a real life perspective to those who may be interested in starting their own journey. So today we'll devote this episode to "Maker TV vs Reality" and we'd love to get your thoughts on this as well.
