Adam Savage on making things

From Maker Faire 2012.

This is a great talk about making things. I found it inspiring because it validated a lot of the crezy things I do my hobbies. It is about 20 minutes long.

What is ironic is that we are hearing about the importance of making things from someone generally associated with the phrase Don’t try this at home.
