    Congrats on joining the Mob John, and I think it's awesome you've been adding more hand tools into your videos. They really are a joy to use. I lost 90% of my power tools in September when I lost my shop, I now have a small work space that I would never call a shop and I've decided that when I finally get to rebuild my shop will be mostly bv hand tools.

      Internet is full of trolls. They do it just because they can and because they can wilfully annoy people totally anonymously without any repercussions or consequences. Hmmm, sounds like a definition of coward... Depending on the content and who uploaded, could also be done because they were paid to do so. A competitor paying idiots to dislike videos and badmouth stuff...so common now.

    thanks for a wonderful presentation, I will be making one, just one alteration. I will be leaving the natural curve under the bark, and add a curve similar to the one you added, to give it a semi-sphere top. Also, nice touch on the face. Once again, many thanks.

    The mallet is very nice and simple. Good work!
    I wish you well with the "Mob" but the last I had looked it is way more expensive than I can justify. I've also noted that you can no longer find out how much it is to join, before you join! Sorry John, but I don't trust sites like this. If you're selling something, put the price out front.
    In addition - Exactly what are you supposed to do with the "stuff" on the "Mob" site - From the Terms and Conditions.
    "Permission is granted to temporarily download one copy of the materials (information or software) on Makers Mob's website for personal, non-commercial transitory viewing only. This is the grant of a license, not a transfer of title, and under this license you may not:

    Based on that, I guess we're supposed to look at your stuff, say "Wow" and move on. According to that wording, one is not allowed to do anything with the material.
    I've already unsubscribed from Jessi's feed because it's just turned into commercials for the "Mob", hoping the same doesn't happen here.
    Sorry for the rant, but needed to vent!

    Why is there no price for the Makers Mob on the web site? How much does it cost? I don't want to waste time filling in forms with my info if I can't afford it.
    Also any time a company isn't forthcoming with a price, It makes me think there is something shady going on.
    If everything is legitimate, why hide the cost? Surely they think the service is worth it.
    Also will we see less videos from our favourite makers on UA-cam as they're busy with Makers Mob? I understand they need to make money, just asking the question.
