Self-described polymath Hugo van Schalkwyk has been documenting his Maker journey on his YouTube channel, SA-Maker (the SA stands for South Africa). With a day job as a web programmer, Hugo treats his workshop time as a second job — but he gets to be his own client and make whatever he wants. Join us as we talk to Hugo about:

• Fixing things with his father
• The joy of doing whatever you want
• The drive to learn new things all the time
