Description

Our guest is John Crepezzi.  He is a software engineer by day and capable DIYer in his spare time.  We start off discussing rock climbing and playing in rock bands when we were younger.

The DIY conversation begins at 12 minutes in.  We talk about the following tools: circular saws, routers, jigsaws, wrenches, and other specialty tools.  We talk about the benefits of using the right tool and how to get started with a project.

Other important tips:

1. How to deal with contractors and determining what you can handle
2. Approaching projects in smaller solvable pieces
3. Introducing projects to your kids and teaching them along the way

We end with rock climbing and considering it as an activity for your kids.
