    Absolutely love the beautiful work you do! I appreciate your adult presentation style and humor😊. You inspire me to keep going….. maybe one day I’ll be able to make pieces as stunning as yours. Would love to see more videos from you!!! Please. Take care and thanks for sharing your skills.

      And your kind words inspire me to keep going! Thank you so much and I’ll have a new furniture build video out in a week or two. Best of luck to you!

    Something very satisfying and relaxing watching someone do wood working with only hand tools. No power tool noise, just the peaceful sound of hand tools and a master at work. I always appreciate the patience some have to do things that way since I don't have the patience. So I don't feel too bad about myself I like to think I'm just going for the rough rustic old and weathered look. Enjoyed your video.

    Big dummy with no willpower. Excellent humor.🎉 nice to see you going old-school, you’ve got a lot more patience than I do love the video. I think the numerous short scenes really adds a lot to it. Glad to see your subscriber count is rocketing up. Keep up the good work.

    This is a beautiful piece~! I really like your video format and am all in favor of your using tools without power cords. ;-) I've been a power tool woodworker for over 30 years and I've been bringing hand tools into the picture over the last 18 months (thank you to Rob Cosman for his inspiration to do so~!!) This looks like a project idea that I might have to "borrow". Thanks for sharing it~!

    Looks great and a wonderful showcase for your skills both as a woodworker and a presenter.
    Please do a video about the finish, especially the grain filler.

    • @quillwoodworks
      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому

      Thanks for the very kind comment. I just may do a video on that sooner rather than later.

  • @jchristin59
    @jchristin59 8 місяців тому

    Love your videos!
    They calm my nerves. No power tools is refreshing and so is the fact that you don’t blast ‘power cords’ on the music sound track!
    Can you tell me when you use an edge trimmer vs a shooting board?

    • @quillwoodworks
      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому

      Thanks John. I’m always trying to find that delicate balance between playing some music in the background to keep things a little lively without it being a distraction! I appreciate your input.
      The edge plane, I believe is only 3/4” wide, so anything wider would go to the shooting board. And it’s really great on parts longer than 16 or 18” when they can get unwieldy on the shooting board.
      Thanks again for tuning in!

    Awesome! Not sure if this is helpful but I roughed my plow plane fence rods with 220 sandpaper and it doesn’t slip anymore. I read it somewhere.
    Cheers man! I love the videos!

      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому +1

      That’s hilarious. I’m on jury duty this week so to kill time I’ve been re-reading The Anarchist’s Tool Chest and he recommended the same thing. Definitely doing it in the morning. Thanks, Richard!

    What shooting board is that? I think I've seen it before but I thought it was a custom job

    • @quillwoodworks
      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому +1

      That is the Veritas shooting board that I got used for less than half-price. I had to tap some new holes in the rail to accommodate my LN bevel up jack but that was pretty easy. I made a short showing that process:

    Loved it. You have a great narration style and the level of detail is great -- informative, but not too much repetitive detail. Love your dry sense of humor too! One question -- what right angle/ edge plane is that?

    • @quillwoodworks
      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for watching and the nice words, John! That is the Lie-Nielsen No. 95 Bronze Edge Plane. Currently out of stock, along with quite a few of their other tools, as Lie Nielsen sorts out their production issues. Thanks again!

    Great videography, commentary, and work. Why did you switch to hide glue for your dovetails? Keep up the good work!

    • @quillwoodworks
      @quillwoodworks  7 місяців тому

      Thanks for the nice words, Brad! I use hide glue on dovetails for two reasons. 1. Longer open time than yellow glue. 2. Hide glue is “invisible” to finish. Dry yellow glue that may have soaked into endgrain will show up as stains when finish is applied. Hide glue doesn’t have that issue. Thanks again!

    Beautiful job. I like the contrast of the walnut and ash. What sharpening system do you use? Maybe a video on that.

    • @quillwoodworks
      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому

      Hi JD. I use Shapton water stones up to 8K grit along with a honing guide. I generally sharpen most tools with a 30 degree microbevel. Maybe a future video, indeed. Thanks for the nice words.

    Are those Carter F.A.S.T. blocks on the bench or self in video? Love the look of the project. Great proportions.

      @quillwoodworks  8 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for watching. Yes. Those are the Carter blocks which are really handy. Still hate that somehow I managed to lose the 1/8” block. I’m sure it’ll turn up the day after I buy a replacement.

      Hi Kristen, I appreciate the kind words. Here are some measurements: 11.25” wide, 8.5” tall, 3.25” deep. The drawers were 1.75” tall. Hope this is helpful!
