I'm a bit embarrassed how long it took to sharpen the teeth on my saw after witnessing Chris doing it in about 30 seconds...

I love these videos where the interviewed shifts from "who's that stupid influencer in my shop" to "that guy knows his stuf and is really into it" you can see their body language shift

When Alec did the tour of Ernest Wright scissors, the lead time went from 2 weeks to 3 months on orders. If you are a British manufacturer of well made old-school tools give Alec a call for a little tour!

These saws may come across as expensive but as Rolls Royce used to say "Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten"

"surface grind a human in it" is not a phrase I was expecting, lol.

I'm a customer from Namibia- down in South-west Africa. It's such a surreal experience to see the exact machines- and place where my favorite dovetail saw was made- possibly by the same hands! 😀<br>That baby cuts Camelthorn, a beautiful, reddish, native wood, that's as hard as steel, like no other- its edge is immaculate.<br><br>Not a soulless megafactory, with overworked drones- just a classic, craftman's workshop, with people who, I know, are proud of the product they're producing.<br>So cool!<br>Bravo maestro!

Combining 80-year-old machines with CNC and Lego. Great to see manufacturing like this still has its place in the modern world!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6BAXmR2REg&t=948">15:48</a> This moment to me seems like the most English thing I’ve ever witnessed. Just three grown Brit’s softly agreeing to one another that something is in fact “very nice”

I just love how Alec can go into places like this, look at all sorts of wild industrial machinery and go "so this does ___" and the guy goes "yup" to everything he asks. He's not only interested in the process, but he understands the tools used in that process.
