- Two of James Krenov's lectures from the Fall 1994 session of College of the Redwoods' Fine Woodworking Program (will be Mendocino College Fine Woodworking Program starting with the 2017 academic year).
A rare glimpse of JK, the teacher.
If you lose the value of 2 hours of this wisdom because of the amateur level of the recording, you dont even deserve to be here. This was a wonderful talk.
When video came out and even a FWW video was badly produced compared to most people with UA-cam channels today, it always irritated me when some people would criticize the production values while it was such an explosive opportunity after centuries of separation to actually see how something was done. To be in touch with the very thing one was trying to approach.
A man like James Krenov who work wiyh wood is very rare now days.. Thankyou verymuch for uploading this video 🙏
Rare, yes. But they are out there..and doing very beautiful and very skilled work ;)
Back in the 70s when FWW, Van Nostrand Reinhold, and Kodansha, introduced us to the likes of Krenov, Carpenter, Nakashima, and Maloof, who would have guessed there would be so few to come forward afterwards to play similar roles.
What a treat! I miss the crotchety old man! Just was re-reading A Cabinetmakers Notebook a couple weeks ago. It always revives my spirit on bad back pain days...
I do a lot of reading on my back pain days too. spend hours on my stomach. I'm sorry you deal with it as well.
Im in that club also :( Im paraplegic. With decent medication life has improved exponentially. There are Ned's that are abke to crumple up your pain and spit it out! I went from 20 hrs bedrest to 16+ hours shop time and family time. :). And your head won't be foggy or "high" it just gives you back your independence.
It was interesting to witness some of his valued thinking, Thanks!
I am so thankful of this video, thank you so much
any other videos you could post would be deeply appreciated. I am a violinmaker but am strongly influenced by him, although I never had the chance to meet him.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Learned so much from this! Hope you have more to post
Thank You for posting this. Going to think about what he said when reading the book where he explained construction.
This is what the internet should actually be used for.
Today this man would run a huge youttube channel. He is Born 30 years to early....
Sound production filled with coughing, sniffing, chocking and hacking and other distractions. Content is excellent!
I agree. To hear his opinion woodworking at all is worth it.
I think he was putting them to sleep, hence the nervous hacking.

I thought I was a impossible man...But James makes it really real...Pffff.. But I understand him...People or so hard to get in the wood... God bless.. Later on it became funny also..
Where or you talking about?
Ahem, ahem, sniff, sniffle. ACHOO!
William Quilitzsch i was too focused on what JK was saying, i didnt even notice the interruptions.
Krenov is a great teacher and has mad skills but I think he combs his hair with a damp finger and a live light socket🤔
This is good info, too bad everyone in the class has chronic emphysema.
