    Not gonna lie, those chisels got me excited. They look like the highest quality and $80 isn't bad at all

      Yeah me too 😂 I’m sick of buying Stanley and dewalt chisels that last 2 uses. I’m going to invest in something nice that I can maintain.

      I agree that they're probably worth it (especially since they're probably hand made)...
      But keep in mind that the price is per piece. (So 4 chisels = 320$)
      It's a good idea to start with cheaper ones to see which sizes you actually use / need.. And THEN upgrade :)
      Like.. I have a set of 4 (old) expensive chisels.. I use 1 of those. ;)
      So in retrospect, the rest of the set was wasted money.
      Also, learn to sharpen your own chisels.
      Even good chisels need sharpening fairly frequently - especially when you use them a lot.
      Best way to learn sharpening is using cheap ones. (As a bonus... Cheap chisels can become fairly decent chisels if you sharpen them well)
      Pro-tip (for those on low budget);
      Look for old / antique chisels from quality brands on flea markets and so on.
      They might need some refurbishing / rust removal / sharpening, but you can buy those for a few bucks a piece.
      (You pay the rest with the work it takes to make them usable again)
      Via that route...
      I have some 40-100+ year old chisels that you can shave with ;)
      -
      For those interested, check out the 'scary sharp' method (you can find that on UA-cam as well, as well as just using Google or something..
      I think 'Modern Woodworking' magazine has an article on their (super outdated) website on that subject ;))
      That method utilizes a hardened glass plate (1/2 inch thick or so) as a nearly perfectly straight surface, with several grades of specialized (3M) sandpaper stuck to it (goes from 150 up to 5,000/10,000 if I remember correctly)
      * [Works with cheaper sandpaper too - make sure it's for metal, and that you can use it for wet sanding too]
      Could save you a bunch of money on sharpening stones (which you can then spend on chisels instead).
      And also, you don't have the trouble of keeping your stones perfectly flat.

    This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

    Very well done. Concise instructions with no padding. Too many UA-cam instructional video producers think they should star and get very verbose, creating 20 minute videos which could have been less than half as long. Well done.

    When sanding near a finished edge, I like to clamp on a sacrificial piece of wood to prevent rounding my corners and edges. Beautiful and impressive work. I am jealous of your router.

    I have watched and shared a ton of your videos. I just retired to Belize from California in late 2021. I love wood working but I’m no good at it like my brothers are. Belize has a lot of beautiful wood, but I haven’t seen a wood worker such as yourself here. I wish I could send you a link to my brothers work, but he doesn’t have a website anymore. He is primarily a wood sculptor as are many people in Belize. Decades ago my brother sculpted a guitar for Carlos Santana….something I think you would appreciate seeing because of all his inlays.
    I love your work and I will forever be a fan.

    @BlacktailStudio thanks for the lesson! Great explanation...I have chisel envy...I really need to get a higher grit stone...
    Love the overall design... once I get get good at inlay....I can use it to hide screws...cut the depth first, put the screws in and cover with inlay

    I'm a professional (Extraordinary Woodworks, llc) and I love UA-cam woodworking videos! I like watching excellent work while I fall asleep, because when I can't be in the shop myself, I like to watch others work. Plus, you do this differently than I do, and I definitely learned something from you! In conclusion, while there are a lot of people who watch your videos as amateurs or non-woodworkers, many are active professionals!

    Nicely shown and put together. You don’t have to apologise for the way you work - most of us probably don’t use brushes either. I hope you do show us how to make the knot. I’ve had a background yearning to try inlaying and your video inspires me to have a go.

I learned to use a drill press on these harder woods because the hand drilling can be irritating the way the grain just wants to sway the bit around is bothersome
