    Pocketnaut Production Update!

    August 23, 2023 /

    We’re working on finding a good flow for filming in the shop, as well as producing the Pocketnaut figures. It’s not feasible to do both at the same time, so when Crafsman isn’t filming, the Crafsfamily will be producing. This means we won’t be having BIG releases of the figure, but the hope is that we will list however many we can make in a week, every week. So keep your eyes peeled for small releases as we settle into a good workflow. 😀 (https://shop.crafnation.com/product/pocketnaut)We can’t thank y’all enough for your support and are thrilled that you all are enjoying the figure!

    August 16, 2023 /

    In this video I take care of a bunch of shop repairs, including fixing both of my broken Manfrotto Magic Arms (using a 50-cent brass nut and carriage bolt)! All in an effort to get back to the way I USED to film (when we were making episodes every week)! We also introduce OTO7, a robot built specifically for assisting with craft and film projects. 😀 AFTERSHOW: https://www.patreon.com/posts/87808639 CRAFTERS of the UNIVERSE: https://www.facebook.com/groups/21044… STEADY CRAFTIN DISCORD: https://discord.com/invite/2yHn7vKasJ

    Steady Crafter In The Wild!

    April 24, 2023 /

    The other day, we were sitting around thinking about how great of a community our fans are and how wonderful it would be for you guys to be able to meet in person. We wanted to make that a little easier for y’all and took a shot at the “In the Wild” concept. You know….you’re at your favorite hobby store, look over and see someone wearing the SC ITW shirt…or maybe you’re wearing it and someone sees you. That excitement of meeting someone and instantly being able to share common ground with them is such a great feeling! The turtle came from the idea that slow and steady wins the…
