Bre Pettis is an innovator and pioneer in Desk Top CNC machinery as we know it. Founder and CEO of Makerbot, Bre became a Global phenomenon in the Desktop 3D Printing industry. Now he’s the CEO of Bantam Tools a revolutionary Desktop CNC Milling machine company in Peekskill NY. I’ve been fortunate enough to become friends with Bre and had the pleasure of having him in my shop to forge Friction Folders. It was a great meeting of styles and intentions and I look forward to more of it. Bre’s early days of working at the Jim Henson Monster shop was a fascinating foundation for his meteoric rise as a maker; from being an Artist, and teacher to working with Hackers to figure out how to make a computer control a lathe we barely touched the surface of his story and how he has changed the landscape for makers, thinkers and doers. I can’t wait for Bre to come back on the show again. Hopefully soon. Thanks again - GF
