Good stuff, thanks. Had to go back to the beginning of the video and look at the handles on the cabinet he had made after seeing the coal forge. Cheers, David.
It depends on what you are making and how you earn your living. Technological Tools mean you do not need to have as much skill or they can mean you work faster. I love using both technology and hand tools.
@@juliachild9377 A person who is using hand tools could make a good living out of it if they are highly skilled and proficient at what they do. I personally could make a medium to small craft table in a day with just a hand plane, chisels and saw. it would be hard work but I could do it in one a day. I could do one large project per week all by hand but it would be long days working and commitment. People need to understand how much they need to earn, time it takes to produce, cost of production and the sale price.
I trust this guy i dont know why, hehe.. Usually what ive seen.. The less tools will creating a lot of products, too many tools creating less products.. Its something like anti-theory .. Im not 100% true but ive seen this phenomena so many times
i'm starting out, this is incredible. I'd love for this guy to have a channel. I'm fascinated by the bench and how he works with it
Insperational!!! A great reminder that expensive complicated tools don't make a craftsman
This is is a great video because it shows just how few tools and how little space you need for hand tool woodworking.
Love the simplicity.

I own a cabinet shop and and I'm a finish Carpenter. ... It's just impressive to see the talent that is still out there.
Great tour! Love the honest look at a real craftsman's shop!
I have read a few of Andrews articles over the years. Nice to see him in person and see his tools of the trade.
Cheers,

I am curious about workholding on that workbench. I wish in one video Andrew would show us.
In Japanese wood work rather than pushing the planes they also pull the planes towards the wood worker.
Bet that was a fun time. Great lessons to the learned there.
Wow!! Very interesting! Thanks
I feel so guilty. A true minimalist that proves you do not need the latest most expensive tools to be a great craftsman.
Me too 😁

@@bighands69 absolutely right. You always have to think about time and the associated labor costs if you're making a living from woodworking.

10 x 10 is enough, oh wait I also have a machine room tho ;) no jokes apart I love the shop and everything about it
What? No 2,000 sq f shop? What about $50,000+ tool set? Where you came from, dude? Are you from Mars?
Seriously: congrats!
Check out Paul Sellers as well. He uses hand tools in a small space and produces some of the most beautiful furniture out there.
True master always uses handtools
How do I tag some of the UA-cam gurus?😑

7:59 That shelf in the background could use some help
He looks like Arnold´s American cousin
I entirely respect this approach. You can't get much done relative to us power tool woodworkers but, for some people that's alright.
