## Resource

We are bleeding money this week. Eric accidentally spends over $600 on just three sheets of walnut plywood after dealing with a breathless customer service rep. We also dive into Eric's new standing desk build, Zac’s genius idea to 3D print cages for power bricks, and why a $1,000 office chair might actually be worth it. Zac reveals the 3-point suspension system for his "Invisible Foam Speakers" and his plan to package the 3D printed jigs into a mini-course. Plus, we debate the physics of powering a gaming PC by pedaling a bike and share the only acceptable way to sand drywall without ruining your shop. Got questions?
