MAKE Something

I just posted a short article under SHOP NOTES in the main website. It's titled: MAKER - Why Not DIY?. Click on the link and it will open to a new page.

This is response to the many folks who are begging then crying (at least to themselves) about the cost of outsourcing a prototype or one-off construction project. I listen to ideas but will almost never take on a project for something that is not a profitable, clear cut time and material process that I have already mastered. Learning new skills is part of my estimated costs.

Being blunt I will say if you don't have deep pockets, the best way to get what you want is to do it yourself. Here is one way to do that.
