NEPR from the shop to the studio

Last summer, the NEPR team visited my shop while shooting a podcast pilot for a series that comes out in the spring. While I usually tell people there isn’t a specific approach I have to creating, I was once again reminded during our conversation that not everyone can see robots in scrap metal parts. Swear I see them everywhere! (…insert Beautiful Mind or Sixth Sense reference here)nepr-interview-july-14
After a few hours with them in my workspace, they invited me to come to their studios for an extended interview the following month. As I sat down in the chair and put the headphones on, it was like riding a bike and it all came right back. One of the waypoints in my journey was spending a few years DJ’ing at Rock 102.

Whether it’s a torch or a microphone – I certainly enjoy creating. How about you?

Botshop tips and tricks

Quick fab/finishing hack for all you welders out there. Cut up a few small pieces of Scotch-Brite and run a piece of threaded rod through some washers and nuts. Put it in the drill and Voila! A great buffer/finisher for stainless that’s cheap and gets in tight spots.

What tips or tricks do you use around your shop?
