The One Where They Get Splintered (Episode 180)

We've been making some big moves lately, including getting the podcast listed on IMDB and launching a new Spencley Design Co. Shopify discount code for listeners. We also had to do a redraw for our monthly KM Tools gift card winner after our previous winner, Neil Heslop, generously passed on his prize due to shipping costs to the United Kingdom. Big congrats to Built by Gus on winning the $50 gift card!We got a little sidetracked and had a fun discussion about the trials and tribulations of home improvement projects, from dealing with damaged doors from big box stores to the agony of painting. We also chatted about our own YouTube video production processes, the challenges of making content, and how we're working to improve our workflow and video quality. It's a candid look behind the scenes, and we hope you enjoy it!Got a question that you want us to answer?

We delved into Zach's current project, an educational course on console modification. He plans to make the course engaging but not boring, much like a YouTube video. We also discussed the challenges of creating a course, such as balancing the need for comprehensive information with keeping people's attention. The episode wrapped up with a discussion about the new H2S and H2C 3D printers from Bambu. And we answered a question from a viewer about whether carbon fiber filament can cause splinters.Got a question that you want us to answer?

We're talking about YouTube's new "Hype" button, the frustrations of IT support, and why trusting a handyman from places like Angie's List and Task Rabbit may be a gamble.Episode HighlightsThe Hype is Real (or is it?): We dive into YouTube's new "Hype" feature, a way to boost smaller creators, and debate whether it's a game-changer or just another button to smash. Find out what a "small creator" is in YouTube's eyes and how many "Hypes" you get a week.DIY Dilemmas: From trying to install a front door with YouTube tutorials to the pros and cons of hiring contractors with TV commercials, we share our home renovation trials and triumphs. Learn why some jobs are "too small" for a contractor and why we'd rather do it ourselves, even if it takes more time.A Lumberyard's Lament: Our tools get a shout-out as we discuss the essentials versus the dust-collectors, including a circular saw's new life as a "destruction saw" for pallets. We also get into the nuances of using a track saw off its track, a topic that apparently gets people fired up on Reddit.Know Your House: We discuss how to know when it's time to replace your roof, and what signs to look for in the attic and from the street. Plus, we talk about the financial sense (or lack thereof) in over-improving a starter home.Got a question that you want us to answer?

We dive into the wild world of online scams! We're talking about everything from ridiculously professional-looking emails from "Sony" that want you to download files on a Windows PC (yep, a very specific scam that almost got us!) to companies that stiff YouTubers on payments after their ad reads go live. We'll also tell you about our own run-ins with scams and discuss why we're so paranoid about our digital security these days.This week we're ditching the aftershow to chat live with our top-tier patrons over on the BYOC!

On episode 177 of the Off The Cut podcast, we go shot for shot, we jump right into some hot topics from the tool and content creation worlds. Kicking things off by talking about J-Katz new video and the importance of content warnings for, well, graphic injuries.Then, we got to the news of the week: Kreg is coming out with a new line of cordless power tools, including a cordless pocket hole joiner. Naturally, we had to check out the details on their Instagram and website, which led us to wonder if this new battery platform is truly worth it. This sparked a much bigger discussion about the blurry line between inspiration and just plain copying.We dove deep into the ethics of taking ideas from others. We compared it to classic tools, asking why it’s fine for everyone to make a screwdriver but not a unique creation like a pocket hole jig. It turns out that some power tools, like the track saw, have become so commonplace that their designs are almost a "public entity". But where does that leave creators?We debated whether it's okay to make a video inspired by someone else's work without giving them credit. We've all seen videos that look suspiciously familiar, and sometimes a simple acknowledgment goes a long way. We ultimately concluded that intent is everything and that it's a good idea to borrow from multiple sources to avoid a direct copy. As one listener perfectly put it, “if you just keep copying others, people will eventually see right through it.”Got a question that you want us to answer?

The full crew is finally back! In this week's episode, join Zac, Deric, and Eric as we dive into a wide-ranging discussion covering everything from our latest projects to the business of content creation. Zac shares his journey of switching his entire cordless tool collection to DeWalt, revealing the strategic deals he's making on Facebook Marketplace. This sparks a lively debate on the pros and cons of cordless tools, particularly the notoriously frustrating cordless sanders. Zac shows off the final version of his 3D-printed soldering fume extractor, and Deric and Eric offer some great advice on making products more marketable for the maker community. We also touch on Eric's massive drawer box course project, the challenges of creating detailed, long-form educational content, and the importance of having a robust content strategy. Plus, we answer a LIVE chat question about using power tool batteries to run camera equipment for YouTube videos.

This week, Eric is on vacation and Deric gets big thanks for his genius idea that helped Zac perfect his 3D-printed soldering fume extractor, making it solid and adjustable with just 2 thumb screws. Zac is also deep into a tool-buying spree, playing "day trader" on Facebook Marketplace to switch all his tools to DeWalt. Did he make the right choice? We dive into the world of tool reviews, discussing how free tools can unknowingly bias creators and the refreshing honesty of some channels.Deric shares his current woodworking projects, including building a platform bed for his daughter's closet and custom shelving for his son's retro game console collection. This leads to a deep dive into the fascinating world of vintage game consoles, from the elusive N64 disc drive to the N64 that was contained entirely in its controller. We reminisce about old games, the Beanie Baby craze, and the nostalgia of classic game smells. Got a question that you want us to answer?

Zac is back from his European adventures, and we immediately put him on the hot seat to confirm he didn't elope (spoiler: he didn't, but it crossed their minds!). We also dive into the wild world of online shopping, discussing everything from oddly specific Amazon cutting board kits to the wild and wacky items (and mini smartphones!) we've discovered on Temu(or is it TeEmu? Timoo? No one knows)We also share some behind-the-scenes insights, like Eric's ongoing battle with contracts, Deric's clever 3D-printed solutions for woodworking dilemmas , and Zac's encounters with content impersonators on TikTok.

We pull back the curtain on video editing, including how we "fake it till we make it" with B-roll. We're geeking out over 3D printer filaments, especially glass-filled ABS, is it our new favorite (even if it still stinks!)? Then, things get real in the shop with a painting disaster that left Deric’s garage floor and door looking a little emo. We brainstorm ways to clean it up, including some heavy-duty razor blades and paint stripper. We get handy with outdoor power tools that have interchangeable heads – total game-changers for yard work. What is the cost of perfection? How to navigate tricky client expectations. And finally, we give a sneak peek at upcoming videos, including a PlayStation 5 mod. We spill the tea on how to handle sponsored content without annoying you (it's all about that natural flow!). Plus, a quick shout-out to our new favorite tool: the ultrasonic cleaner – even if it makes a terrible noise.Got a question that you want us to answer?
