027 - Michael with Calavera Tool Works

Michael Williams with Calavera Tool Works joins me in the lounge to talk about how his custom apron company was formed, what he did before starting his business, and how he comes up with designs and markets his leather works. Michael has built a prominent business in the maker community, providing top-notch aprons that maintains his "as long as Michael walks the face of the Earth" guarantee for quality. I enjoyed getting to know more about how he started his small business and continues his hustle by engaging with the woodworking and maker community.

Patrons of the podcast will get a 20% off code for any products from the Calavera website.
