On this episode I sit down with Vic Tesolin, owner of Vic Tesolin Woodworks.If you want to hear the full story behind how Vic Tesolin Woodworks got started, check out the show archives - episode 165In this industry, you never stop learning. As your craft continues to evolve, so does your thirst for knowledge. But when you are starting out, that knowledge barrier - of what you know and what you don't - is pretty apparent. And it can show up in your earlier work in ways you certainly don't want it to. That's what happened to Vic, when his commissioned tables, didn't hold up as well as he imagined they would.Learn more at buildingafurniturebrand.com

Vic wears a lot of hats. Furniture maker, teacher, writer, speaker, the list goes on. Chances are, if you have spent time reading about woodworking you have probably read something he has written.Being around so many furniture makers and understanding furniture at a deep enough level to not only write about it but to also teach it to others (and let's not forget building impressive furniture in his own right) has given Vic a perspective on the industry that many aim for but not all achieve. A perspective that he gladly shares in this episode.Follow along as we talk about learning to have an ego, how important mistakes are, why showing up can be your greatest skill, and much more.Learn more at buildingafurniturebrand.com

Today on the Podcast we have Vic Tesolin of Vic Tesolin Woodworks! Vic has been making furniture for a number of years, he studied at Rosewood studio in Ontario, Canada, where he focused on furniture design and making while building furniture. However, Vic found it was very difficult to make a living making the type of high-end furniture that he was making originally.  Vic has always had jobs that support his woodworking. He was the editor of Canadian woodworking magazine, and also worked for the research and development department at Veritas for Lee Valley for about 10 years. This all afforded Vic the ability to travel all over the world and meet woodworkers from different walks of life, which he describes as pretty fantastic!   Eventually he decided it was time to be his own boss and do his own thing. Vic describes it as something that sort of just happened. In addition to his woodworking business he also has written two books besides his publication writing.  “This is it, this is what I do.” Vic says he's always felt extremely fortunate to have gotten the education that he did. His goal has always been to pass on knowledge and information, however he can. Whether those are two hour webinars, or private teaching, that's what he's all about. Vic just wants to get the information out there. He wants people woodworking. He wants people working with their hands. I mean, this pandemic has showed us that, you know, people are loving working with their hands, because, The business started as a side hustle, as Vic suspects a lot of businesses do, because it takes a lot of guts to just say, “Okay, to heck with this paycheck, I'm not using that anymore.” So Vic did it as a side hustle and started by writing articles for magazines, and then he got asked by a publisher to write a book, and then another book. Once you start, once you get published, then people start seeking you out for classes and other things Vic says. Vic has taught in Europe, England, Australia, China, and his life and business partner Andrea takes care of the things that Vic's not good at. Andrea is really good at marketing, and she's excellent at the customer service aspect of it. Vic notes that he is fortunate that they work really well together.  The Books and The Marketing Corner Join us for this awesome podcast where we discuss mailers, Vic's two books, minimalist woodworking and Tik Tok!

On this episode of the ShopNotes Podcast, Phil talks with our guest, Vic Tesolin, about minimalist woodworking, shop setups, the metric system and more... John was there too but was mostly frozen up due to all the the "star power" on this show... or maybe he had some technical glitches. To be determined.

There are many people who are reaching out in their own way during this current crisis caused by the spread of covid-19. Lee Valley has made project resources available to keep your kids (and your spouse sane), while Bad-Axe Toolworks is another example of a great woodworking company that is reaching out with a very special covid-19 special and resources to download. However, one of the big hearted gestures I wanted to highlight is Vic Tesolin's offer to make a chapter of his book available to anyone who wanted to stay at home and beat the boredom. Join me as we talk a bit about his book, and what he's up too.

At Fine Woodworking Live, Kyle and Dyami sit down with Wilbur Pan and Vic Tesolin to discuss how and why the woodwork. New Jersey and Canada feature prominently.

Today on the show… we have a who shares my love for making big pieces of wood into smaller ones and takes some Canadian sense of humor into his teaching and work at Lee Valley Tools, Vic Tesolin. He's a veteran of the Canadian Army where he served with pride for 14 yrs in the Royal Canadian Horse Artillery. After his honorable discharge, he was a student at Rosewood Studio where he studied furniture design and making under the guidance of some of North America's top furniture makers. He ran my own studio furniture business designing and crafting furniture by commission while working at Rosewood as a part-time instructor and craftsman in residence. He realized that making the type of furniture he liked to make didn't make me much money so he went in search for a real job and took the helm at Canadian Woodworking magazine as editor. Currently, he's the Technical Advisor at Lee Valley Tools. When he's not there he's in the shop building furniture or in front of my computer writing articles for various publications. He's the author of The Minimalist Woodworker, a book that encourages people who can't run machines because of noise, dust, lack of space or budget, to woodwork with hand tools. With a few more books in the hopper I should manage to stay out of trouble for awhile ... or not. Today we talk about the adventure of making things with your hands… using real tools! And how to inspire our kids to do the same, and guide them into adults who know how to fix and build things for themselves. You can find more about Vic here: http://victesolin.com/ Vic's book: http://victesolin.com/store/minimalist-woodworker-signed-copy Here's the spokeshaves Vic mentions on the episode: http://www.leevalley.com/us/hardware/page.aspx?cat=1&p=50230
