Toolstop Podcast Edition #34 – Lira Luis
This week Neil and Mark are joined via Skype by American architect Lira Luis. This interview came as a result of this Tweet from Lira;
This led to a Twitter conversation about power tools and our invitation for her to join us on the podcast.
Lira chats about the projects she’s worked on, including her time spent on Frank Wright’s Taliesin property where she used power tools to cut and finish limestone. Lira also comments on the Ryobi EWS1366 1350W 190mm (7 1/2″) Laser Circular Saw 110V. Plus she tells us about a bed that’s designed and is in the process of building (see photos below).
Finally, Neil and I catch up regarding our teams’ progress through the World Cup.
