  • The last UK Maker Faire 2018 Bonus Episode

    20/02/2019 Duration: 51min

    Dominic & Gillian (@ddiasco) explore the last UK Maker Faire in April 2018. They start outside on Times Square. They chat with Dave of Rowan Wood Carving before heading inside to chat with a couple of makers.  This bonus episode was recorded in April 2018, at the time we did not know that this was to be the last UK Maker Faire (though please don’t be confused there are OTHER UK based Maker Faire’s they’re just not called the UK Maker Faire). I managed to chat with Ruth Amos, an inventor and engineer who is the star of YouTubes “Kids Invent Stuff” and an initiative to help build confidence for kids and especially girls to be more at ease with using tools. Some links to Ruth’s work: https://twitter.com/RuthAmos on Twitter #GirlsWithDrills for her initiative with Kisha Bradley KidsInventStuff on YouTube with Sean Brown We got to speak to Colin Furze, probably the most successful British maker on YouTube.

  • Bricolage Podcast Episode: 05 Tool Autopsy Part 1

    06/02/2018 Duration: 01h01min

    In my ongoing "hobby" podcast, Bricolage Podcast, I bring you episode number 5 which is (the first?) Tool Autopsy episode with Paul Beech (again).  The basic premiss of this new podcast flavour or segment or... something, is that me and Paul (and maybe other people in the future) go, with a pocket of loose change, to a flea-market (or boot sale or whatever) and buy a few tools. We then do no research and using only our own vague knowledge and intuition we talk about them.  The picture about (is the best picture I have) of the tools we got (don't worry there are more not so good ones later). I suppose this is a sub project of @toolotheday  In this episode:  your hosts are Dominic Morrow (that's me) and Paul Beech of Pimoroni etc We went to the Saturday morning sale at the Cattle Market in Nottingham We talk about trugs and gorilla tubs We always wear Nitrile or latex gloves (our top tip) The first tool TOOL 1 is a bench vice  TOOL 2 is a S8 ROHM chuck key TOOL 3 is two spanners one is 9/16th Inch and the
