This week on Whatcha Makin', Alex Duffey and Alex Adams tackle a topic every maker can relate to: woodworking on a budget! They share their best tips on scoring hand-me-down tools and affordable wood on Facebook Marketplace, plus creative ways to supplement your income by selling at markets or filming your own DIY projects.

Alex Duffey gives a full recap of the Texas Woodworking Fest, sharing his experiences from the classes and the expo floor, along with some memorable moments with friends (and a CNC tattoo!). Meanwhile, Adams discusses his latest projects, from a sofa/bar table to a charcuterie board. You'll also hear what broke this week (a router and a dust extractor!), and get some inspiration from their "Whatcha Watchin'" picks, which include incredible builds from the maker community.

Tune in for practical advice, real-world stories, and plenty of humor about the triumphs and tribulations of being a maker!
