Landline Radio: Stories from the Shop Floor

Ever watched a master machinist’s hands move across their workpiece? There’s a rhythm to it—a conversation between metal and maker that feels almost impossible to capture in words.

Almost.


The Tools We’re Missing

For fifteen years, I’ve watched brilliant craftspeople try to turn their expertise into documents, training manuals, and “content.” It’s like measuring temperature with a tape measure— the wrong tool for the job.

Your knowledge isn’t meant for bullet points and rigid templates. It’s meant to flow, like the shop floor conversations where real learning happens—when you’re problem-solving, passing on skills, and explaining the why behind the how.


The Bridge Between Doing & Telling

I’m Braeden, and I’ve learned that expertise moves like electricity—it follows the path of least resistance. When you’re talking shop, your insights flow effortlessly. My job? Capture that current and direct it where it needs to go.

Think of me like a machinist for ideas. Just as a skilled craftsperson can feel when a cut is perfect, I can hear when a story rings true. Together, we’ll turn those shop floor conversations into something that reads as clean and precise as a freshly faced piece of stock.


How We Get There: The Four Cuts

1. First Pass: Discovery Chat (15 minutes)

Like checking your material before you start the job. We define the knowledge we’re shaping and the purpose it needs to serve.

2. Rough Cut: Deep Dive Session (1 hour)

This is where the stories flow. Like any good roughing operation, we’re not focusing on final polish yet— we’re pulling the best material into view.

3. Finish Pass: Translation & Refinement

Now we shape those raw stories into a clear, structured, and engaging narrative— without losing the character that makes your expertise unique.

4. Quality Check: Implementation-Ready Delivery

Everything you need, delivered in the format that serves you best:
