Fire Drill
Episode 98
Wednesday, 3 December, 2025

In this meeting, TJ and Lucas discussed a recent fire incident at a nearby bar and the importance of having business insurance, which TJ confirmed was in place for his shop. They reviewed their Thanksgiving holiday plans and Black Friday sales strategy, noting the success of their first-year discount promotion. The conversation then shifted to manufacturing topics, including Haas's equipment expansion, tool storage solutions, and various prototyping methods for knife-making, with particular focus on design processes, bevel grinding fixtures, and the importance of documentation and revision control in their work.
