I'm glad you enjoy them! I have a few more videos in the works at the moment, but I'm not quite sure of the scheduling. (Producing videos isn't exactly the ol' day job...)
Just was reading the comments on your restoration video of this particular saw where, at the end, a couple of three "Karen's" were a' busily complaining. As the late, great Pat Paulson would've put it: "Picky; Picky; Picky". Bye the by, I tried printing out your teeth guage five times at different settings and which only allows metric page image sizing. Seems the "Metric Inch" is 7/8' of the Imperial one. In other words, if you ever do find the time, energy and urge to redo it, would adding imperial settings be doable with your system? Sure would cut down on the bad language to the good Lord quite a mite. :)
Try looking at your print settings--there might be some sort of scaling issue (this is often a problem when people print out sewing patterns, especially if the paper size doesn't match). If that doesn't work for you, I can have a closer look sometime to see I goofed with the paper size or something. The guide is actually the output of a PostScript program I wrote a while back, which uses points as units (1/72nd of an inch).
@@bricsuc, Thanks for the response. The point system takes me back to my semester in the late '50's of print class in high school. Yes, hand set type used in a real (but powered) printing press. Now, on my mid 2011 iMac running OS 10.13.6, for a Canon 2500 printer, I seem to be getting conflicting results as your chart shows up as only being printable in metric dimensions even though it shows its for standard American letter size - 8 1/2' x 11". As a dear friend used to wryly note: "Murphy never sleeps". Thanks anyway.
Plus, consider that weight and other attributes vary significantly among dovetail saws. Ultimately, it comes down to what the user feels is best helping them do the work. But though there are many options for saws, the one constant requirement is that the saw has to be sharp!
I'm not totally out of it, but my time has been limited since I put out this video. That said, I am working on a new one right now; if everything goes well (cross fingers and such), it should be ready soon-ish. Thanks for taking the time to watch my videos!
Well done. But we need for videos! I enjoy your channel a lot. It’s boring out here in deep space.

@@bricsuc 10-4, I get that.

Slower is better for accuracy. Well sharpened dovetail saw will cut with its own weight and sometimes that is too much.
Also any comment made earlier was just to help whoever wants it, people can take it or leave it.,Just what works for me.

Not sure what happened to you but I think you had a good thing going and stopped doing videos too soon.

@@bricsuc Thanks for making them.
