Popular Post kmealy Posted March 2 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 2 An interesting video and one of a large series on traditional hand tools. Bit of background. I met Graham on the internet years ago. A number of years later, he was speaking at PopWood's seminar and I was working the AV. I was surprised he remembered me by name, even though we never met in person. He lived in Woodstock, NY at the time and was actually a musician in the Woodstock music festival 1969. He is an accomplished hand tool woodworker and wrote some books and articles for PopWood back in the day.

Popular Post Grandpadave52 Posted March 2 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 2 Thanks Keith. I've been watching some of his videos lately. Interesting fellow; does an excellent job presenting basic techniques for both the new as well as the experienced hand tool user. He has an amazing hand tool collection.

Popular Post Al B Posted March 2 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 2 (edited) A very interesting video. I'm seing a lot of what I've missed with woodworking with hand tools. My experience using spoke shaves and hand tools in general has been very limited.

Popular Post Ed-H Posted March 4 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 4 Nice. And very impressive that, unlike almost all the young modern videoists … presenters? … he did itvalmost straight through with no editing. I think I saw one time where he stopped and restarted.

John Morris Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 I am familiar with Graham Blackburn, I have a couple of his books that I used for research for our wiki, but I had not idea he made videos! Thanks for the heads up Keith! I have enjoyed this video a whole lot. Larry Buskirk, Cal, Grandpadave52 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed-H Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 Ok … now i’m looking at several of his videos. All good. But i think i found an error. #11 planing long boards. Go to 5:50 where he uses a stanley 95 to square the edge I think he used it on the wrong face of the board: he seemed to have the blade trim the wide face of the board, not the edge steven newman, Cal and Grandpadave52 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
