    Default A clever video

    I came across this cleaver woodworking video while lurking on a UK site.
    Lawn Chair 2 - YouTube

    Regards
    John

    Thanks for sharing that one , very cleverly shot , unreal workshop , great understanding of the way to get the best out of the timber. Great to watch while the glue dry's.

    One of the most enjoyable videos I have seen.

    The chair is pretty ugly. At 2.00, the jointer only flattens half of the board. How does it make the whole board flat and true?

    I had a look at a few of other videos, including "The making of", Lawn Chair (1) and a couple of others. He is a very clever guy.

    Very clever.

    One part has given me an idea on how to solve a problem on the project that I am about to start.

    At the beginning of the film, he uses a chain saw attached to some sort of portable stabbing setup.

    Anyone know what this is called, who sells and what it might cost?

    (other than a "portable chainsaw stabbing attachment")....

    Nice big shed. Very very nice. I like his bandsaw! It's a BEAST.

    Reason I'm interested, I have found several sources of logs, including a stupendous 50 year old walnut a farmer wants cleared....free if I take it. Offer too good to refuse!

    There is another person that I have to be envious of ....... ripper workshop, big ute, very skilled, great little film maker, plenty of tools, well maintained garden and seems to have plenty of productive time.

    I have subscribed to his You Tube as he does some really entertaining videos.

    Very enjoyable video. Having said that I didn't like the chair that much, but as a teaching aid it was superb. One picture is worth a thousand words
