Thanks for that Grandpops it was very interesting. One thing I would like to see better is when you were using the carbide tip tools the tip couldn't be seen clearly as your left hand was in the way. It looked to me as if you were using the tool in scraper mode. Can you clarify this please but overall an interesting video !!!:thumbs:

Hi Terry I was using it as a scrapper which in effect that is what it is I also used it as a sheer scrapper

Great video Woody, really helpful and informative :thumbs:

Two points though.
  1. It would have been nice to see the finished item at the end of the video
  2. You gave me and Sue a hell of a shock when the video started. I think you should have warned people that you had had your cap surgically removed

Love it Woody ! Very informative and some great tips picked up there mate.

Not too many facial shots either which made it more pleasurable to watch!!!!!!!!

PS did you have surgery for the cap removal

Just got around to watching it Woody. A good job as it is not easy to stand in front of a camera.

Thanks Woody - These little tips within a tip are really helpful to a wood hacker like me :thumbs::thumbs:

By the way not as long as Star Wars but they had more than your 40 quid budget

That definitely was your doppelganger not you Woody, as others said, where is the cap? :rolling:
You don't half drop a lot of stuff though, hope you were wearing steel capped shoes:whistling:

The video was thoroughly enjoyable mate, a great watch and very informative. keep 'em coming :thumbs:
