Transparency Matters
At The Makers Workbench, we believe in honesty, creativity, and craftsmanship—not just in our projects, but in how we earn a living too. Some of the links you’ll find on our website, blog, YouTube videos, emails, and social media posts are affiliate links. This means if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
Affiliate commissions help support what we do—creating woodworking tutorials, turning inspiration, laser cutting guides, CNC projects, DIY electronics builds, and 3D printing resources that fuel your maker journey. They help pay for the tools we review, the software we test, the camera gear we film with, and the many hours we spend crafting high-quality, helpful content.
We only promote tools, materials, and gear we genuinely use, believe in, or trust in the hands of the maker community. You’ll never see us recommend a product just to make a buck—we care too much about your shop time for that.
Trusted Partners
We participate in a variety of affiliate programs, including (but not limited to):
- Amazon Associates
- Rockler
- Woodcraft
- PCBWay / JLCPCB
- xTool
- Shopify Brands
- Other hand-selected programs from brands we work with directly
When a video, blog post, or social media post includes affiliate links, we do our best to clearly label them so you can make informed choices.
Your Support Means Everything
Every time you click an affiliate link or make a purchase, you’re helping us keep the lights on in the shop and the sawdust flying. Whether it’s a bag of super glue or a full CNC machine, your support makes it possible for us to keep building, teaching, and sharing what we love.
Thank you for supporting independent creators and small businesses like ours.
