      I was thinking about the other day. Something about the vibe here is different. Like bourbon moth or Keith Johnson feels like if I had enough money I could order a commission but something about blacktail feels like even if I had enough money I would still need to "know a guy" to get a piece. It feels more exclusive for some reason

    Hey Cam, I'm a blacksmith and I've worked with damascus steel a bit. One thing that struck me when you said that the Giraffe pattern being disappointing is that all the best patterns in steel are the more symmetrical or ordered ones. I think the style is organic and random enough on its own, so an ordered base pattern tends to look best.
    I also have two suggestions I'd love to see you try to mimic: first, feather (sometimes called flame) pattern and second: a mosaic of some sort, the most common being "star", "burst" or "explosion" patterns. I could try to explain these, but I think it's best if you just look them up here on UA-cam.
    Great video as always!

You made a real effort to wow her with the options and some patterns / color combos that you knew she'd like and some you knew she wouldn't, but, ultimately, still made her a top that perfectly suited her taste and respected her decision, despite your own opinions. I got such a kick out of your wine tasting-esque display of the different tops / bases, your delivery was spot-on. And props to your wife for genuinely comparing the different styles in an attempt to find one she would like, even after seeing the oak top ;)

    When you mentioned a commenter saying hot people are only with ugly people if the ugly person is rich, I immediately disagreed, because obviously hot people are often with ugly people if the ugly person is funny. Then I saw your face and thought, "how hot is his wife that people think HE is ugly?" And also, "good thing he's not ugly, because he isn't very funny." Then I saw you showing off your creations to your wife and realized you simply save all your comedy for her in particular, and decided I needed to comment to tell you just how cute you guys are together.

    When I bought my first (lower range) band saw I had so much trouble setting it up. The saw would swerve everywhere all the time, I even replaced all saw blades with more expensive ones, still nothing, it was horrible. Then I set it up listening to Alex Snodgrass' video and I can now cut consistent veneers down to a quarter of a mm (that's about a 1/64 of an inch I think) on that same band saw no matter what blade I use. I even had to show the shop owner, where I bought it, how I did it. They now refer to that same video for other customers that are having trouble.

    Hey Cam! I've got a planer tip for you.
    To avoid tearout when planing across the grain - start by feeding the piece about an 3/4 inch through the planer so that it creates a lip. Pull it back carefully. Then spin it around (so the lip is at the back and will go through the planer last) and run it through normally. By doing that you'll essentially pre-cut the layers that will not be supported by layers behind them and thus will blowout if run normally.
    An old woodworker with all his fingers showed this one to me. It works like a charm.

Decided to look into woodworking and stumbled upon your channel, wich really helped deciding that this is my way to go forward. I've probalby watched most of your videos at least 5 times if not more, i love seeing woodworking, love english and to be fair, german woodworking channels are just mostly boring explanations or reviews, no entertainment.

    One wine maker mentioned the "mound of despair" the dimple in the bottom of hand blown bottles that ensure they can stand up; it was the mound of despair because you thought there was a full glass left, but there wasn't. this seems similar to cutting grooves in the bottom to help it lay flat.

    I was in aerospace composite fab/layup for a few years. I would suggest if you're going to have a bag that big you should have multiple vacuum ports. Also you want something like non perforated a5000 and breather rope and you want the breather mat to cover the entire interior of the bag to help with even circulation. Also, if you want your plies to be really tight and strong to the mold. Less resin. I recommend a couple of compaction steps in between a handful of lay ups.
    I'm a little dusty on the info as it's been about 3½ years. Our process was nice and tight as it was or aerospace control surfaces (some of the highest stressed components). I wouldn't mind sharing more suggestions or bounce idea, trouble shoot issue, etc.
