This one is pretty good also but I Like Frank Klaus using a full size frame saw.

Thanks, Chris
Two very interesting videos. All swing of having the confidence to cut to the line! Practice. I particularly like Klaus's comment: "I do not force it; just get a bigger hammer."
There is also another video by Tage Frid, almost identical to that by Frank Klaus.
Graham, there so many ways to cut DT's and most work well IF you practise.
