    Hey Ben! This episode isn’t showing up in the itunes feed. Strangely, they report 11 episodes, with multiples of 4, 5 and 7. In fact, there are THREE episode 7s in there. And there’s no episode 8 either.

    I’m now going to settle in to Episode 9 and figure out if I should be thankful it wasn’t on the itunes feed! (Just kidding)

    Hummm going to work on this but in the mean time try this link for the HD itunes feed (some of the early files are huge so you may want to avoid downloading them)

    Great episode heading back to the meatier tips hints and projects. Dave’s the best when he’s a little wild.

    The iTunes HD feed looks much more sane (if that can be said about the show with a straight face).

    Who’s hosting the feed on this page? It’s really slow, taking about 30 minutes of buffering to play the whole show. I’m on Comcast but even it isn’t that slow (usually).

    Don’t think I’m complaining about the episode! Thanks for the treat – once again a smile on my face.

    This is a great way to engrave, could be used to do some simple sketches as well.

    You need to build a shield now to keep you safer, LOL

    You guys should do an episode on bending PVC pipe.

    That is a great idea! Look for it in a few episodes….
