Ask Us Anything question:

• "How often do you allow yourself time to sit quietly and remember the broad plan? We get so bogged down with making the next decision or dealing with the barriers to making, that we might not revisit the overall schema it fits in. The ultimate goal. Becoming world renowned for expertise; turning it into a business; raising kids that aren't fuckwits, making it to retirement. It's worth remembering your framework within which every smaller thing fits. So how often do you get to? Do you make time for it?" - @warrenmatten

This week, Adam & Jessy are joined by Jeff Stein aka aweirdguy. We talk about giant golf pencils, inverted nipple vases, how we think about projects, and what we do when there's a complete lack of instructions or documentation. Also lots and lots about why Autodesk Fusion is a great choice for those wanting to make on a CNC.
