    Each year, my wife and I make a nutcracker. Here's a video of this years little fella. He's a blacksmith. This is the second nutcracker that we have made in the basement shop and it's great. The first 4 where made in my old shop which was pretty cold in the winter, it did have a wood stove, but it doesn't compare to well lit warm shop with full power. We turned the nutcracker on a lathe, made other parts with a bandsaw and even used a metal lathe.....as I like to get complicated on at least one aspect of each nutcracker. Looking forward to the years to come.

    In all your videos you make everything look so easy when constructing or building furniture ... owing to your consummate skills. HOWEVER...it was hilarious to see you defeated by the long whippy branch :))) you're human after all ! Thank you for all your uploads. Keep up the good work. Jay

    Great work, I think that one looks the best of them all. The wife says he looks crazy! Really like the hammer and anvil detail.

    You two make a great team and I think the blacksmith was the best one yet. Excellent workmanship, both of you.

    This brings back fond memories. I remember the first video of yours I watched which featured your nutcrackers and your (then) girlfriend's (now wife's) smile. These warm my heart.
