Title: Short Clip on Hand Tool Woodworking
Post by: 123maxbars on December 18, 2015, 11:45:59 AM
I made a short youtube clip on working with some barn wood via hand tools.  When I am not running my WM I enjoy/prefer hand tools when time allows.
I am not a pro but enjoy doing these videos and even more using handplanes.

Thanks I have two barns to dismantle that were given to me.
May take me ten years but I will do the same to all the boards

Nice video and nice work

I was getting tired just watching you, but I do appreciate the time and effort it takes to do things by hand with simple hand tools.

I am not as ambitious as you in that respect. 80% of the items we make come from reclaimed wood, mostly sawmill scraps and framing scraps throuwn in dumpsters at work sites. That board would have still been saved it it was in my wood pile, but it would have seen the inside of the surface planer. I just dont have the strength in my left arm due to auto accident to do that for very long.

Thanks Beaver,

It is hard work, but It is very relaxing and doesn't require ear plugs.
