Cheddar visits the SPark Workshop in Sunset Park, New York to talk to its president, and some of the artisans who call it home.

Grain Control's John Harris and Justin Davis discuss their custom woodworking company, and working with clients like Spotify. Fallen Industry's Paul Kruger describes finding new uses for locally-sourced fallen trees.
