Cheaper to BUILD or BUY a house? | Testing to find the BEST Rice Cooker

from Maker Ranch · host Ben Uyeda

On this week's episode I am sharing my thoughts on whether it is cheaper/better to build a home from scratch or buy one. Also, progress update on the MOOSE ANTLER chair! My sister Jesse and I are tackling cutting boards; refinishing them, and sharing my general thoughts on building and maintaining them. Jesse and I discuss the 700 lb walnut stump we dug up from the backyard of our childhood home and plans to turn it into our dining table! I have also been testing several rice cookers to find the best one, for me at least. Mike from Modern Builds also stopped by!
