Adam Savage’s Maker Tour: Lower 48
In Oakland, Adam meets Lower 48 founder Jolie Karno, who converted a truck container into a nonprofit woodshop where she teaches people the joy of making. During his visit, Adam gets his own lesson in wood turning, and begins making his own wood bowl! (This series and tour is made possible by The Fab Foundation and Chevron.)

Cool to hear the shoutout to Youtube wood-turners, so many great channels for that!
That is a beautiful, beautiful chunk of wood she gave Adam to work with. Black walnut, looks like? Lucky fellow.
i like her emphasis on the feeling of rightness when everything comes together. i found that one of the most striking experiences in woodturning, and really hard to put into words.
I haven’t worked on a wood lathe since high school, but I recall when I did it was extremely satisfying and almost zen-like.
I really liked this video, and the Shipping Containers idea is GENIUS!
