The quality of your videos is so excellent, dude. Thanks so much for taking the time to put out such great material for the people who love what you love!
I appreciate your slower speaking and excellent enunciation. Your English is perfect. I think in pictures so the pace of your speaking is perfect for me to translate to pictures and ‘see’ what you’re talking about.
I feel like I am writing a review for fine dining experience. This video is on the same level as going out to eat at an amazing restaurant. I felt full from the information I learned, the presentation was outstanding and I would recommend this and your other videos to others. 5 stars
The corners of triangular files are often not well formed by the maker, and tend to get chipped, blunted or damaged by misuse or poor storage, however, they still need to carry a lot of the load while filing 60 degree slots. If the edge teeth cannot file the overall progress of the file cut will be halted. I have found it pays to pre-cut the bottom of the slot with a few strokes of the hacksaw prior to filing. This reduces or even eliminates the work the file edges have to do, so speeds up the filing progress while helping preserve the file. If you have the time and the patience it is possible to make your own bushing hammer or chisel, by reworking an old lump hammer or large chisel bits
Thanks for the suggestion. That would be indeed a nice tutorial, but it would be all but short, as it's a long process. Although I am preparing some videos where I show how I carve my own works, so you'll get a glimpse of that as well. Stay tuned!
Athar hey,...can you make a video of you visiting the local quarry, like a intro into how it all works, purchasing, how you decide which block is good or bad ect, plus it would be cool to get a inside look at the quarries thru you're experience, I'm sure others will appreciate it. Thanks man, on you're next visit to buy a block make a video, it could be a series type thing or how ever you wanna make them.
I'll gladly do that next time I go to a quarry to get some marble. It will not be for the near future though as I have plenty of stone in my studio for the moment. Probably in a year or so. Thanks for the suggestion!
So i was told by a stone mason that old bushhammers used to be reforged sharp instead of sharpend with files. Im interested in how that was done and on the hunt for clues. I imagine its done with a meathammershaped topswage, or a triangular bar... But if anyone has any hints im very very interested
If you're using carbide tipped heads, the process is the same but use diamond files or high quality hard metal files.
Thanks you answered my question before I could ask it.

Hey, Good Job 👍

What if we want to sharpen bushing chisels with carbide tips? Do we use diamond files?
Yes, exactly. The process is the same but I would use diamond files or high quality hard metal files.
