That awwful taste and smell of Cedar must be what drives Moths awys from Hope Chests made of Cedar.

Anybody know where I can get a workbench Vice like this? I've scoured the internet and can't find anything like it

Using a fine chisel as a wrecking bar? :-)

I'm in the process of building an acoustic guitar with purpleheart, hard maple and african mahogany layers on the neck and bindings and a bloodwood fretboard. I can definitely say that purpleheart, while eye catching, is a MASSIVE pain for small detailed hand work. The mahogany feels like clay in comparison. I've also noticed the purpleheart has a tendency to blacken pretty badly when using power tools so it requires a little extra care. The back and sides are Indian rosewood because as you said, the Brazilian stuff is just hard to find. 😅

I was on the edge of my seat once we got to Rob’s recommendation, I really didn’t know which way he was going to go!

Hi Rob, do you think the buttons need to necessarily be glued to the top? Planning to use it in a bench and would like to be able to disassemble in the future to refresh the surface, but also don’t want to compromise the stability.

Been using Japanese saws for over a decade. Never have the issue your describing and they too been developed and used by Japanese hundreds even thousands of years ago

Out Standing! Well done.

Always believed that hand tools were either for those who couldn't afford power tools, or those with swanky privilege and/or retired ... nothing but time on their hands.🤔

What is the wax stick you use?

11:03 My you continue to be blessed, Dan. Thanks for your service. 🫡 to the host and all who donated

Two things .....Clamping a board to the back instead of planing into your work seems like a better alternative to having a referance to marking the second joint !! and you can fix dovetails if a slight mistake has been made using a sliver of wood to rebuild the joint --- and it would be undetectable! Working with walnut has taught me to expect the unexpected and be prepared to fix defects !!!!!!!!

Plotting on the purchase of my first planer. Thanks for the tip.

Now that is a great collaboration! And for a good cause. Well done 👏👏

Thanks for the recommendations

Better tools always makes a better product.

Greetings from the BIG SKY. I have one in my wood shop.

I own bench planes by Lie Nielson, Clifton, Clico and Veritas. A few old Stanley and record ones too. In the UK, clifton are priced more competitively than Lie Nielson. My 5 1/2 came perfect out the box. I did swap out the chip breaker, older two piece one, with one from Ron Hock, (that need a tickle to flatten the back too)but that is personal preference and have done the same on all the clifton I have. It is my go to bench plane. Real workhorse. I own a no. 4 and no. 6 by nielson, both needed work to get them working well, especially around the castings in front of the iron. Suppose as with most things mass produced, they don't all arrive as perfect as we would like.

Wow that piece of work with the pine timber looks awesome, love your work. Thanks man ❤

i love u so much thank u for this video so easy to follow and ur so cool thanks rob

This video is excellent.

This series represents the ultimate in the making / fitting of a drawer. Timeless!

I wish I don’t need this but I do and it works

155, they are talking about slop in the adjustment dial in Stanley's that is just inherent to the system. Could you put two washers as spacer's to reduce the slop? Or even snap rings?

Hey Rob, I finally made my first bench! It's not as nice as yours, but it's based on a Moravian knockdown bench. I'm using 18mm ply for the top, so I can easily move it outside to use my router sled. Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for all the lessons, especially the tusked tenon episode, which helped me immensely!

Very nice. This is the traditional way to wedge door tenons in Britain.

Rob, Do you advocate stropping at all? I haven't seen you do it. Thanks, Greg

How powerful should a grinder be when using one of these CBN wheels? Or will basically anything with a motor be good enough?

Rob, you could sell underwear and I would buy it .

Micro bevels are some internet born horseshit that have no scientific or testable basis for existing. Proper sharpening and maintenance it even takes more time to deface your iron with that micro bevel than it does to just sharpen it properly.

Thank you.

Nope; right there with ya on the red oak, which grows in immense profusion on my property and in my area 😞. No thank you; can't stand the stuff, and unfortunately if I want a cheap hardwood around here, I can have red oak in ton lots (OK, that may be a bit of an exaggeration...). It's hard to plane, hard to surface, and rots if you let the dew land on it. I spend the $$ for white oak and am happy to have done so.

No better sharpening demonstration on internet. Careful, precise, clear, transparent tuition cover every factor that can affect sharpness., perfect for the beginner. Sharpening was a black art before this video was released. Thank you, sir.

Hey Rob and team, we never got that dovetail tail board support on the moxon because you cannot use your plane. Thanks

Great video, I'd love to see the lie nielsen review. Cheers

Im gonna experiment with some finer pieces of sandpaper on a glass plate, a flat one, see whether I can get rid of the spaghetti that way. Before buying another DMT

0:52 nice.

Hello Rob, I actually am ending up with spaghetti-like shavings when I go thin enough. And at first I was thinking ''that's probably the grain structure of oak'' but now that I've done some pieces of pine, and still ending up with spaghetti. I started questioning whether my edge might be too rough. I only have a diamond medium coarse stone of DMT and that's actually the only thing I really trust to be accurate regarding grit contamination. But could this be the reason why I get the spaghetti or do you think something else is more likely?

Rob this is the best explanation I have seen for just the basics. Everyone needs to know these simple yet very important aspects. Body mechanics & techniques = less fatigue & more enjoyment woodworking. Thank you!

Totally agree on the low angle jack planes, they're fancy paper weights.

I really appreciate that you mention everyone who taught you in your videos. It shows the utmost respect you have for your mentors.

This should have been a graders project, trial and error, trial and error, the worst way to do anything.

Thanks for the lesson. I’m about to cut my first wedged tenon. My tools aren’t near your level but they do the job for me, I’ll do fine. However, I do have the same indispensable magnifier you have and I’m over 70 years old. This is a good video.

Hi Rob, a problem I seem to have is trying to plane the front once glued together because the plane scuffs across the grain on the opposing edge. If I finish plane the pieces before glue up then I find it really difficult to get a perfectly smooth join on the face i.e. without a slight lip one way or the other. Any ideas? Also if I try to finish the face surface before glue up it inevitably gets dirty with all the handling and marred with glue squeeze out. It's so hard to get a perfect result!

I think a picture frame is one of the most deceptively difficult jobs in wood working.

Do you know why they abandoned the two piece chip breaker? A quick google search didn't turn up anything useful.

I'm new to carpentry, looking for my first block plane and I have the money to spend. But... Reading through the comments, it appears Veritas is missing here. Perhaps personal issues with Mr. Cosman and Veritas? I could dig for an answer here but I'll just leave it at that. This is a great review but incomplete. I now have to go to a different reviewer who includes the Veritas to make a more informed decision.

I’m just starting my woodworking journey and this is one of the easiest to follow and understand out of all videos I have watched.

Hola, cual es el largo de esa sierra, tengo una pero creo que es muy larga cual seria la medida ideal??

Honestly I think you’re just too picky about things 99% of woodworkers wouldn’t notice. Does it shave wood well ? Yes it does . Importing heavy stuff is expensive and every pair of hands that touch it has to make money.
