- In this video, I make a wooden holdfast, with hand tools. These are obviously wooden but, do a decent job of work holding.

i love how real this is... no music or elaborate editing (but good editing nonetheless) just a man doing honest woodworking outside in the wind without 5000$ of tools... liked and subscribed
Thanks man, I appreciate it.
I LOVE your shave horse attachment. I was trying to design my own & this will help me a lot as well. Thank you.
Thank you, you're welcome, hope this helps.
Дякую за науку. Це чудово. Беру приклад. Дай Бог тобі заробіток на життя
Просто і геніально. Ти молоток. Дякую.
Very encouraging to see WW with minimal hand tools. Well done.
Thanks, it's amazing what can be accomplished with a dozen or so tools.
A hint for more holding power, use a bigger dowel for your hold down or use more than one hold down.
Das nenn ich einen Handwerker! Absolut Top!
Hübsche Werkbank!
Thank you very much 👍
Your videos are so inspiring. I know plenty of people have said this, but keep up the great work. I know some kids can make millions on youtube doing popular stuff, but I'll be right here watching your videos of therapeutic craftsmanship. I'm excited to have these skills later in life if I can keep practicing them now.
Thank you very much, for your kind words, and time, I really appreciate it.
Hello, do any of your videos have more info on that draw horse accessory you have got on your Roman work bench? It looks great, I have a low style bench and would love to find out more and potentially make one myself.
Thanks man, checkout the roman bench playlist on my channel, there's a part 2 on using the bench which shows you a little. It's also in my free ebook, links in newer videos.
@@DW_woodworks great thanks! I will have a look!
beautiful woodworking...wow. !!!! I noticed at the end you showed two holdfasts . One with the dowel at an angle and the other at 90 degrees. What was the angle that one ? Thank you
I really appreciate how you do these all on a low workbench. This is also the style of woodworking I'm trying to adopt, and it's so hard to find others who still do it today. Your videos are always great to watch!
Thank you very much, for taking the time to watch, and your kind words, I really appreciate it.
In the end, when you saw, don't pull back with the saw to make a "groove" , just push through.
I like that bench a lot. I like the holdfast too, and I like it a lot. Very clever. I'm on a big push to remove unnecessary iron and steel from my shop.
Thanks man, I like the wooden dogs too, so I don't damage plane irons etc.
First video of yours that I watched. Your work bench / shave horse combo I’ve never seen before. Inspiring to see you work on simple hand tools and make tools to use. Thanks I’ll subscribe
Thanks for watching, and the sub. Much appreciated 👍
Nice, ive subscribed
Thanks, I appreciate it 👍
Hi, it is always great to see your work, how you moved from power tool to hand tools. As well, how you design and work through the process of making both furniture and hand tools or jigs all in that unassuming low/roman style bench. Know that your hard work is inspiring to many and instructional as well, I know that I take much away each time in the form of either straight inspiration or food for thought on how I try and do things, as I putter around in my garage woodworking (mostly without power tools as well).
Thank you for your kind words, and time. It's always great to here people are learning, and being inspired by what I do. I'm hearing it a lot now, from people, which makes the effort of myself doing these videos/podcasts, worth all the time. Again thank you.
Good job! Now if you don't mind I'm going to copy you! I hit "subscribe" too. Be seeing you later
Thanks man, I appreciate it.
I’ve saved your podcasts for when I have the chance to listen to the longer talks. I had a family member gift me their old Porter Cable dovetail router jig recently. It’s a mammoth to store and a bit of a pain to set up. If I can just take the time to practice handcut dovetails, I won’t need this thing around.
Do you have a recommendation for a simpler joint I can use on projects while practicing dovetails in spare time? A blanket chest has a lot of dovetails; at this point I’d need to find some other joint to use for now.
Its a tough one. My advice would be to cut all your joints by hand (tenons, bridle etc.) This is going to help you hone your saw skills. I'd also recommend, you start adding dovetails to projects, for the practice. Bite size is where you should start, one or two dovetails in a single joint. Maybe small drawers etc. And work up, adding more dovetails in a single joint, But you do need to start cutting them for the experience.
The only other joint I can think of, would be finger joints, but you can still end up with loose joints, and there not dovetails, so I say hold off with the chest for now. What's going to look better, finger joints or dovetails?
This week's podcast might be on dovetails, so you might get some pointers.
@@DW_woodworks looking forward to it. Thanks mate.
That's a good tool. I don't have any metal ones so I was thinking it could be done with wood.
Thanks for showing the way.
Thanks for watching 👍
Just found another cool hand tool woodworking channel! Great job. I dig your low roman bench. Great idea making a shave horse attachment. I was just about to build my bench and was going to make a separate shave horse. Glad I saw this. I'm going to make mine with that attachment. Looking forward to checking out your other videos. Great job on the hold fasts too!
Thanks very much, I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.
I've been thinking about making hook-style holdfasts by laminating ash around a form - sort like the forged steel holdfasts by Gramercy Tools.
Sounds like a cool idea, it would be interesting to see how well they hold the work.
I clicked on the video in order to see the wooden bench dogs, but I was super impressed by the rig to hold things in place while using the spoke shave. Not sure whether you found the design and adapted it or created the design yourself, but it is phenomenal. I'm just starting out in hand tool woodworking. Have plans to build a roman style work bench as one of my first projects (I'm an old guy who prefers sitting to standing for hours). Your hold down will be one of the first modifications I make.
I did not see any plans or tip sheets listed on your RedBubble page. Do you sell the plans for making the hold down? If so, send me a link and I will pay. If not, expect a contribution to your PayPal account in the near future.
Thanks for watching. The design is just a simple shavehorse, that's been around forever, and I made it specifically for my bench.
Unfortunately I don't have any plans, although I was thinking about getting some drawn up for the whole bench.
If you have a look at my, how the Roman workbench works. There is a section where I combine a wedge and a peg to make a holdfast. It maybe helpful, and give you some ideas

I like this video very much. Do you have a video of building your low work bench. Thanks for some of the add on ideas of your work bench.
Thanks for watching. I'm planning on doing a build video possibly with plans, very soon, so keep an eye out for that.
Absolutely brilliant. I can see you love your woodwork. You have inspired me to make some for my mini Roman work bench. They are very useful
Lol, yep, I do like my woodworking. Thanks for watching 👍
What degree of degrees do you drill through the hold fast wood? It looks like the peg is at an angle from the hold fast wood.
Love the add on shave horse.
I really don't remember. A lot of things I build, I build on the fly, including furniture. Knowing me, it was probably around 70-75°.
Thank you for showing your work.
Thanks for watching 👍
I will try making one of those today. Very cool.
I'm going to tfy this. I just built a nicholson bench and I am trying to use no vices. It is entirely built out of free wood I've scrounged. Yours is the simplist I have seen.
Thanks for watching, there's an even simpler version on this video ruclips.net/video/d1JJdRKHJcQ/видео.html
with a wedge and peg,
And the work holding in this video is all viseless, which may give you some ideas.
Now , that a project should trying to make ! 😊 nicely done sir .
Thanking you sir.
awesome work!
Thank you
