I used to think the prices on your saws were a bit on the high side but now I See they are not. The amount of work, craftsmanship and detail you put into your saws and Marking gages and everything else you produce is of very high-quality. On a sidenote what you’re doing with PHP is very admirable and I thank you for that.

I have the pleasure of owning one of your dovetail saws with the black speckled resin tote (and also the matching marking gauge) . Both tools are as beautiful to look at as they are to use (even with the resin), they truly are super high quality made tools. On a side note, watching this video answered a question that I often wondered about. On my saw, the brass pins that go through the back and blade have a light pink hue to them, I could never figure out why until now... the loctite! It doesn't bother me in the slightest, just one of those "unexplainable" things that barely caught my eye. I can finally sleep now.

@@Thewoolywoodshop I tried using denatured alcohol once but it didn't work. It's possible that the brass pins absorbed/wicked the Loctite and caused permanent staining.

Well, that explains the cost of hand crafted saws. I guess I didn’t realize how much work went into them. As always, excellent attention to detail, and great teaching skills, Rob. Suggestion for your next “tool review”: Saws. Put yours up against a vintage disston fresh from eBay (no modification, just see what you get), a veritas, and a LN. Always enjoy the objectivity you bring to us even though you have your own personal biases. It would be a good way to explain why your saws have your own preferred qualities (folded/cut back, tooth geometry, handle grip, finish, etc.) Also, it might bring in a bit of sales (this video certainly will sell a few on its own).

I'm a recent subscriber so I've done some binge-watching to catch up. There aren't a lot of guys who come across as comfortable as you do in your videos. Your running commentary is very conversational which makes it easy to listen to. There are other tubers out there who have had their channels for years but still come across like they're reading a script and with your videos, there's none of that.

Hey Rob, John Akers here from Kennewick Wa. Could you please do a video, or add to a upcoming video, on how to use the Shawn Shim Dovetail Offset Tool. I am sure it is fairly self explanatory but it would be nice to see you show how it is intended to be used. Love your videos and your teaching methods are excellent. I have purchased several of your custom made tools and my skills have improved dramatically from their use and your ability to give good instruction on their proper use. I struggled for some time with proper sharpening of chisels and hand plane blades until I started watching your videos. I also always wanted to do hand cut dovetails but avoided them or used a jig (leigh dovetail jig) until I watched and followed your instruction. Now I look for opportunities to use hand cut dovetails. Thank you.

I tried 3 other premium saws prior. Sold 2 gave one away after getting Rob's saw. I have since bought 3 more. Let me tell you the joinery cross cut saw is something magic. Never have I seen such a finish on a saw cut, hand, machine or other wise. Speaking of crying, think of the money I could have saved buying Cosman saws first and not the others. Cry once if you must.

For wood working I'm not one to suggest CNC. But for a business and producing a product that you do the same one of and not one offs. I would say a CNC would solve the safety problem as well as reduce production time. Plus ones you have it figured out programmed and jigged a monkey can be trained to run it.
