Ep. 5: Trent Preszler
Listen now
Description
When Trent Preszler inherited his father's old toolbox, he decided to put it to use by building a wooden canoe. It took him a year, but Trent (who had no prior woodworking experience) built the boat, learned some valuable life lessons and wrote a memoir about the process, Little and Often. Trent now builds similar, handcrafted wooden canoes that sell for $100,000. It's a wild, powerful tale about a lot more than just woodworking.
