Steve has done it again!! Gave Jacob a headache, no seriously, Steve inspired Jacob to discuss this topic, I know, Right. Anyway this is a good listen. A little text msg told me that Steve messaged Jacob and said that this episode got him up off his tuchus and got him to start on his shop!  A topic Steve inspired ends up helping him. That's the power of MFIO!!  To support the guys hit up their link tree site at linktr.ee/Makersfiguringitout. Sponsor the show, Buy them a coffee, “#getlathed”...
