Can you share where to get 6-8oz hard, dense veg tan? I can’t find it anywhere...

I have the identical wheel gauge and agree with all your comments. This thing was dull as a butter knife. I pulled the wheel off and spent a ton of time trying to get it sharp. Still not impressed, I much prefer a conventional marking or cutting gauge. Conventional gauges can be made for next to nothing. It seems that lots of wanna be woodworkers are more tool collectors than woodworkers. My recommendations are the same as this guys. Go to your scrap boxes and spend some time and energy making these tools yourself. They don’t need to be fancy to work well. As your skills become more honed you can make beautiful marking gauges that will look just as impressive as any store bought unit, and it’s truly YOUR tool.

Thank you for posting this video. My dad had a pair of these and I have never seen another since. My grandfather immigrated from England and was a carpenter, he likely made them for my dad or gave my dad instructions.

You da man!!!!! tried it and worked perfectly..... claw hammer style homie !!!

Did you use the smooth side or the ruff side up?

If that green box was 16 inches tall on the inside, a framing or rafter square would fit behind the till and drawer, and be accessible by opening the top only. My dad was also a carpenter and born in 1909.

New sub here that has basically walked a similar path as you... too many tools in the past. I've been making the transition to hand tools for the past few years and it can be another rabbet hole.You've been giving great advice and I was glad to see you recommend a full size hand saw as an alternative to a circular saw. You mentioned a jig/saber saw and personally, I'd go with the hand saw and a jig saw over the circular saw, more versatile. Egg beater and a brace is another way a person can go for furniture type tools to get away from power cords and batteries. I just bought a mint brace off eBay for $30 US +shipping. For new shoppers, go with a three piece chuck over the older two piece chuck so you can use newer drill bits. The older two piece chuck is set up for the older style bits. Anyway, thanks again, I can't get enough of these videos, its like getting my batteries charged up, or just a reminder to get off my butt.

Nice work!

Good, common sense video. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the video. I had thought about getting this saw. - I guess you can't save big money at Menards. ua-cam.com/video/KNiQUPGQE7Q/v-deo.html

Great work. Is that a flat bottom, or round bottom spokeshave?

I was hoping you would at least mention a handsaw or a plane.

I think "global components" means Chinese steel.

Wow. I'm diggin' this. Only watched two vids. This one and part 1. Subbed. painter by trade so I have quite a few wonder tools of my own, that.s what got me to click your vid- gjad I did. See you next time.

yes Dewalt are made in Sheffield but not from Sheffield Steel

Thanks for that explanation!

So what form of joining do you use?

I agree to your hand tool argument BUT, how do you break down a 4' x 8' sheet of plywood with hand tools? :)

I agree with Terry Pullen. Having just taken up woodwork the "Big Shed" hard point saws I bought were destroying any confidence I had, the backsaw in particular I find impossible to even cut let alone follow a line. I now have a collection of backsaws from ebay, most for less than $2 (my favourite was 99 pence, U.K.) which I'm restoring. The same is true for planes and just about all tools. From now on I buy only used old tools. Restoring them is a pleasure in itself. One advantage is, however, that as long as people buy modern shed crap the price of the good stuff will stay reasonably low. I think people shy away from old stuff as they are unfamiliar with sharpening and may feel (wrongly) it's beyond their capabilities. The couple I have restored are sooo sweet compared to the new and these will get better as my fettling becomes more practiced.

Very well explained, clear and simple. Many thanks.

Nice. Thank you for sharing.

Skide godt makker. ;)

the new saws of today are junk no doubt as compared. in all fairness on the stroke count you are comparing a full size saw to a 20 " saw. Have been in the trades all my life and it's real hard to find a decent hand saw anymore regardless of the make as compared,, just sayin..... Too much crap being produced in this rush rush gotta have that money world we live in !! Keep the faith out there okay . thanks, n my best to ya.

Do you sharpen cross cut at all or just use a rip Saw for everything? Been trying to learn how to sharpen my hand saws. I find cross cut teeth much harder to master. I like the way you explain on your how to videos.

Hi. For your strop, rough side up or down? Do you condition the strop before adding the green compound? If so, with what.

Thumbs up for your hand tool philosophy!

You do make good points and I do agree good old skills using hands are going away fast and I feel the same with the digital wireless age we live in. However, that being said I think it's a little extreme some of the things you are saying. Machines are great tools to have and I personally don't think it diminishes the art and the craft of wood working. If it involves wood and tools (hand and machine) you are a woodworker. You still have to get your hands dirty. I do agree with what you're saying with the nature of UA-cam but most of UA-cam channels are not about the shop it's actually the craft of woodworking but even the shop videos are great because it gives inspiration and ideas to the viewers what they could do with their own shop. But I also do believe UA-cam can be a bridge for people to get started in woodworking. Steve Ramsey mentioned how the high school his son went to had an empty wood shop because no one was enrolled in it. So I think channels like yours and many others can be a great outreach especially for younger generations. Also for the record with the "TV show" you are referring to the gentleman in question never in the seasons he's been on mentioned "you need this" or "you need that". Sure they used some high tech gear and equipment but if you pay close attention most of the project he made can be achieved with relatively inexpensive tools. But ultimately he was doing it for the love of woodworking and it never came off as a condescending elitist attitude towards woodworking. Although the show was sponsored by big name tool companies, never in his show he would name specific brands and models because he felt that wasn't important. I became a wood worker because of him. Sure I do wish I had this machine and that machine every now and then but at the same time being inventive with the limited space money and equipment is a fun challenge. No disrespect to you and I do respect your view points but I love my machines.

U have got to be shitting me to be serious about this video, I dont comment often but I literally had to switch from my tv app to browser so I could comment on this. How about U start with a proper tool and not a dull tool and making comparison. People use wheel gauge because it is fast, and good. Tons of very talented woodworkers on youtube that all use it, u think they dont know about the other marking gauges? I feel stupid to even have watched this as long as I did.

What can of knife you used to trim the leather?

Great video, friend .. liked and subscribed to you. I hope you sign me too.

Neat to look at different box types... I'm going to build a combination of several box types I've seen. But this one will be implemented

Turns out I'm not the only one doing this....

Thanks for confirming what I experienced with the DeWalt version. I doubted my own senses and felt guilty taking back a new saw. But yes, "waste in the extreme" "An apple tree with no apples" indeed, great video!

If you wanted to, you could switch to weaker magnets, or glue a spacer to them (steel, felt, or plastic, whatever you like) or just drill and screw them in addition to the epoxy. Nice box.

Good video, I started out in 1953 with a boxwood ruler here in the uk, I still use them, but they are now marked in metric and made of some kind of plastic.

At 5:36 you have a tool you use to set/measure angles. How is that spelled? I like that thing and I would like to get one 😀

I just found your channel because in the past year I've been getting more into wood working. I have to say I love this review. I realize how lucky I am to have a whole bunch of my grandfathers saws. The junk they sell us now

I want a table to match my writing desk, with the exact same height. I started building a saw bench, only to realise I first needed a shooting board. And by now I need a tool chest. I do my wood working in my living room.

A 51 minute review of your "initial impression " of a 4pc. chisel set ? Self important much ?

Thank you for posting the video. You brought up several good points.

Got some good info here and it's a good idea for a power strop, but too much talking... it took too long to get to the point. 9-1/2 minutes is not really a "short video"

I would like to thank you for sharing your experience. I enjoy watching your videos. You have an excellent attitude and it is a pleasure to watch a video when the host is articulate and not rambling. My hat is off to any person who has the patience to make a video - especially a quality one.I have subscribed and will watch ALL of your videos as time permits. Keep up the good work! Cheers Wayne

does he ever drink the beer

Who would have thought DeWalt would put decent steel in a chisel

What file should I get

Really appreciated these two videos and your philosophy on woodworking. Much akin to Paul Sellers' "it's not what you make, but how you make it that brings fulfillment." Thanks for sharing.

i fell asleep waiting for your story to end

Stanley usually makes crap. I ended up buying a genuine Japanese saw. Suizan if i remember correctly.

Good video, and nice background music.
