The kind folks at Cool Tools sent us a copy of Four Favorite Tools, which is a compilation of recommendations from the Cool Tools Podcast, including from the episodes we were on. I’ve had it sitting on my desk since it arrived, and I’ve been flipping through it pretty regularly. It’s been fun to look up the people I know and see what they recommended. It’s also fun to learn about people I don’t know from their browsing their recommendations.
All of the information in the book is also included in each person’s podcast episode on the Cool Tool’s site (here are ours: Lenore and Windell), but I’m much more likely to flip through the book and happen upon something new than I am to go explore online. This book would be a great gift for the tool-users in your life.
Thank you Kevin, Claudia & Mark!
This is a demo board I made for some #flexures, some of which I have used for projects, others I just think are so cool. #lasercut #delrin pic.twitter.com/5Hdkc5TYJO

Make Magazine has been running a great series of maker spotlights and profiles of maker businesses. We were excited to be interviewed for a profile ourselves, and you can read it on the Make blog now!
I’m the subject of today’s issue of the What’s in my bag? newsletter! I enjoy this newsletter, which peeks into the kinds of things people carry around and use on a regular basis.
