    These videos demonstrate how you can always learn something new - I had never thought of the block with the hold-fast holes drilled into it.
    Brilliant idea!

      Injust acquired a new to me workbench with the rectangular dog holes, but have some of the new style of hold fasts. Now I can use them.

    I'm glad I decided to watch a quick video before I started work.
    Very informative. You have explained to me a few things I haven't seen before and I'm happy to have watched your video.
    Very professional and easy to follow.
    Thanks.

    You do have to spend some time setting the saw up... blade, fence, etc. But once done, the saw is great. Fairly compact which is Nice ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxXh-4_3-ZT1fFWP91ZV7iVqzElr0lEb-a I did get an Incra Miter Gauge which takes some setup as well. The stock miter gauge can be adjusted in the miter slot with a little painter's tape... this tightens up the side to side play a lot.

    I'm just finishing to build a fancy workbench in which I didn't want to bore holes. The advice of a piece of wood with holes in the tail vice is priceless! Thanks!

    • @pinkerbot
      @pinkerbot 2 роки тому +9

      In my opinion, it is a bad idea to have a fancy workbench that you do not want to bore holes in. When i was an apprentice, i was taught the importance of wearing dedicated work clothes - anything that takes away attention to the tools you are using can become dangerous. If you are wearing your favourite shirt, part of your attention is on not ruining that, when it should all be on the workpiece and tools you are using. The same can be said about your surroundings, including your workbench. Build a sturdy workbench that is made to be used, not to look good!

    • @gjbmunc
      @gjbmunc  2 роки тому

      Totally agree!

      @@pinkerbot That's all good advices, unfortunatly I live in a tiny house and don't have space for a proper shop. I do have a not-fancy heavy-duty moravian workbench outside in the garden but not really well suited for winter woodworking. So the new fancy one is in the living room. With my previous roman workbench and the fancy handtools, everything looks pretty and asks only to be used every day :)

    Mr. Blackburn, thank you so much for all the work you put into your page. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. The “eureka” moments have opened up new possibilities, especially for a guy like me working with restored hand tools on a slab made of 2x4’s.

    9:23 “There is no reason why you should be doing anything with the workpiece not completely safely secured”
    This is an “Aha” moment for me. I am coming to carpentry from Green Woodworking; spoon carving in particular. I have always held the workpiece in my hand. I think this is a major defining difference between the two. Thank you for stating simple basics Graham. It is very helpful.

    "Scandinavian" style benches (i have a hunch that it is actually a german design that krenov ran across in sweden) atcually used to have a very lose face vice. Basically an overzize clamp built into the bench and much clamping was done in the rear vice. Ripsawing etc
