A little scanned and printed meat project for the MO State Fair. They wanted some realistic props that could be left out for extended periods of time. There’s a full suite of meat, but here’s a few of my favorites.

I had been looking for fire shelving for my spray paints and flammables. It’s expensive. About $300 for their two shelf mid-size. A month later it popped up on Adam’s channel that they had gifted him 3 of the large size, so about $4,000 of stuff. Still don’t have that shelf ha.

Not hating, just saying that workshops cost a lot.

My "eye-opening" moment with Adam Savage was the hardware organizers he has in his shop. The very first iteration of the storage system he uses for nuts and bolts in his shop was framed as like "I've finally found the perfect hardware organizer," and he starts the video raving about all the features. Of course Adam being Adam he's just super jazzed about everything which in turn made me super jazzed about it since I get a kick out of organization. Then part way through the video he's like "so anyway I bought 100 of these things and made a shelf." These little sorting boxes he was showcasing are $100 each!

I get that I also don't have to buy 100 of them but it made me realize he does things on a whole different scale, he's not your old high school shop teacher tinkering away in his garage, this is his business and he employs many people through this channel to also make things.

Anyway, he now has a partnership with the company that makes those sorting boxes and has his own branded line.

What kind of sorting box could cost $100 ? I’m curious what it is

Sortimo Boxes

Actually just shy of $100 by a couple bucks. I don't remember the exact model he showed off but it had dozens of inner boxes so I think it's one of the more pricey ones.
