## Summary

Hosts Bob Clagett, David Picciuto, and Jimmy Diresta discuss recent projects, including Diresta's installation of a 12-foot distillery model in Louisville and Clagett's work on a coffee station and arcade machine. They explore the psychological barriers of procrastination and intimidation, with Diresta admitting he avoided interactive electronics on the distillery project due to tight timelines, and Clagett sharing how he overcame hesitation to use a Festool Domino and a Teensy microcontroller. The conversation highlights the importance of tackling small, intimidating tasks to build momentum on larger builds.
