Fireside Chats, Episode 81: Woodworking
Added 2019-03-20 16:01:00 +0000 UTCWhen it comes to Fireside Chats, we don't focus nearly enough on art. Let's change that. Today, we welcome Daniel Vail to the show. Mr. Vail is an amateur (and very talented) woodworker, and he has a serious passion for it. So let's pick his brain. How does someone get into this unique form of art? What kind of tools do you need? What resources are out there for you to learn from? How expensive of a hobby is it? And how do the amazing results of woodworking (from furniture to fine art) help shape our culture, and the world around us?

2019-03-30 00:52:42 +0000 UTCLoved this episode. Got excited because Daniel is doing data analytics/science for a large company. As a student in Data Science I’d be fascinated to see if you could find a guest on to talk about Big Data/Data Science/Privacy topics and what it means for the general population.

2019-03-23 20:15:43 +0000 UTCUntil Dan mentioned it, I never thought to make a cutting board. Thanks for the idea.

2019-03-20 17:00:46 +0000 UTCDan, I'm still in the middle of the podcast, but you are doing a great job as a guest on the show. You were a great conversationalist, and I loved your informative stories and knowledge. As someone else who (except for now, as I am in college without the resources) have done a fair amount of woodworking, you made me want to pick it back up again.

2019-03-20 16:55:56 +0000 UTCI started gunsmithing and leather work about 6 months ago. It has been like meditation for me. The end result in yours hands feels extremely satisfying like an animal instinct that has been forgotten in the modern world.

2019-03-20 16:25:48 +0000 UTCWhat a very out-of-left-field topic. I approve.
David Graham
2019-03-20 16:22:26 +0000 UTCVery cool, my dad is an avid woodworker and he has taught me a lot over the years, very excited to listen to this episode!

2019-03-20 16:11:55 +0000 UTCI'm nervous about how you all receive it, and I actually learned I pronounced wengewood wrong! Please let me know what you think!

2019-03-20 16:04:29 +0000 UTCThis should be fun. I spent most of my teen years in my grandfather's wood shop helping with wood crafts that we'd sell at flea markets. :)
