Happy Holidays from the Shop Talk team! We're a podcast by Autodesk Fusion where we hang out with designers and makers live from their workshops. We give listeners candid conversations with talented folks who pour their hearts and soul into their craft. For this holiday episode, meet Dave Miao.
Coming from Long Island, NY is Dave Miao. His lucrative photo editing business gave him stability, but Miao was in desperate need of creative stimulation. That's when he started teaching himself how to make things— you might recognize his incredibly fun woodworking and 3D printing projects found on social media. Sit back and follow his content-creating journey!
