ANNOUNCEMENT FOR EVERYONE ASKING ABOUT CAM’S METHODS: These videos are for those who just like watching woodworking, not for those interested in in-depth learning. For that you need to go to the main Blacktail studio channel. Don’t bombard Cam with questions he’s answered a thousand times on the main channel like “what’re those chisels?” “What grits do you use” “what’s the finish?” Etc. All these are answered on the main talking channel. This channel is just for people who like watching the process. Those interested in learning go to Blacktail Studio!
You have certainly earned my subscription with the beautiful job you did on these bow ties. I am now a subscriber to both of your channels and love them both. Keep up the good work.
I've been chiseling mortises all wrong. Lessons learned... take half till I'm forced to hit the line, and, let the chisel snap into the groove. Thanks, Cam. By the way, where can I get one of those glass saw blades?
I’m going to be making a table soon and it will have some bow ties. I don’t currently own any chisels. I don’t plan on buying anything fancy but what sizes do you recommend?
Hmmm..I wonder how good it would look if you cut an approximate bowtie, put the bowtie in and pour epoxy afterwards? it should take a lot of 'finessing' work out of a project especially if you're running short on time
Sorry I mean no disrespect to your question but it would look like you can't do good inlays and you took a short cut. But you are correct it would save time and if you do a good even gap maybe passable but not on high end furniture. Would the customer notice? Some would some wouldn't. If your working with this type of wood and adding the cost of epoxy (its not cheep) and what you will charge for the project my opinion is don't give the customer something to find and possibly object to. I have not done this type of table or bow tie inlay but I retired from working in a cabinet shop that did custom cabinets for Bombardier Aircraft. I helped in the table department 3 different times doing inlay work. It was some of the most tedious work I have ever done. But it was also some of the most satisfying. Again I mean no disrespect.
Great format. Hopefully this mutes those folks who for some weird reason don't like your voiceovers, I personally find them to be very soothing. My only gripe with this format is it amplifies the sound of your breathing, any way to get that more isolated?
Why are you using so many tools? (Showoff...) But really, after you cross cut on you chop saw first, what's the reasoning of using your band saw vs the table saw?
I've watched you put in a lot of bow ties but don't like the aesthetic. Excepting structural reasons why put them in at all when the natural looks so hreat?

Three words: meticulous; measured; mesmerizing.

Anybody else reading the subtitles in Cam's voice 🤣
😂😂
Me
Lol.
I prefer the muted version of your channel. Beautiful wood type.
Beautiful workmanship for a beautiful wood project!
Wow! This is absolutely stunning.
Subscribed.
What an incredible talent you have, my friend.
Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful craftsmanship brother.
Good bow tie jig. Definitely doing that myself
Beautiful work❤️
Those fingers are way too close to that blade cam 😂. I’m sure you’re aware of the danger 👍🏻. Keep on producing outstanding content. Love the videos.
Gosh I want one!
Great video. What is the brand of the beautiful wide chisel you’re using?
This was a handmade Japanese one. I don’t recall the maker though
It's actually kinda confusing : when using bow tie or not. The epoxy bond is good : but is it good enough or it is?
Very cool. What are the groves in your wood chisel for? Did you cut them in the chisel yourself?
They are Japanese style chisels. They are all like that. Enables a flat back and less weight
Also...Beautiful grain and color. Will there be a video on the whole project?
There’s a commentary version on my main channel, Blacktail Studio
Как бальзам на душу. Молодец. 💪👍🤝🤙👌🇷🇺
Would you explain about your finish? How high of a grit do you sand to? What type of finish do you use?

I’m going to be making a table soon and it will have some bow ties. I don’t currently own any chisels. I don’t plan on buying anything fancy but what sizes do you recommend?
I'd start out with 1/4, 1/2 and a 1"
Just get a bow tie template if you have a router lol, much easier and faster
Do you get sued if you say "Mallet Time"? Doesn't roll of the tongue as well.
I think I’ll be filling some bags with sawdust in the near future. I never think of it until after a glue up is underway and I see a gap!
Yup!

Are they the bandsaw marks in the bowties, running at right angles to the grain?
The amount of talking is about what I'd expect in Ron Swanson's shop
Do you add the bird songs in like the PGA?

Really missed the talking, it was not the same, not bad but different.
