This time I am talking woodwork with my team-mate Brady, and much more besides:  

- Fatherlessness and fatherhood

- Trust and relationships in a successful team

- Why Brady hasn't left and why I haven't quit (!)

- The importance of asking questions

- Personality and temperament

- Some background on how Freebird got started and my first apprentice

- The power of making a decision

Plus the usual standard questions - shaker door, chunky shelf, etc!!

See www.buymeacoffee.com/freebird for ever increasing extra content aimed at the thoughtful woodworker.  Including my member-only vlog series charting our business growth as we take on a big new workshop and machinery.

PS: About 4 minutes in, Brady mentions 'the latest video' - this is a recording we made of me doing a mason's mitre (kitchen worktop joint).  At time of writing this is waiting to be edited but it will eventually land on my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/freebirdinteriors

The shelf strength test video Brady refers to (soon after 12 minutes in) is this one: https://youtu.be/qLABN-iDYiM

I mention Brian Needham (at about 13 minutes or so), here is his instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/needhamcustomcarpentry/
