In the forty-ninth episode of "Taps and Patience," join the hosts as they chat with Curt of Confounded Machine. Curt shares his journey from building parts for RC airplanes to unintentionally diving into pen machining, discussing his unique pen designs, hand-finishing processes, and challenges. They explore topics like smooth mechanism action, innovative anodization techniques, and the delicate balance of maintaining a work-life separation in a small-scale machining business. Discover Curt's insights into pen design tips, managing a successful presale model, and the dynamics of growing a following in the artisanal pen-making world.
