    The first half of the ruclips.net/user/postUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.

    Could we please also get the same edit without the music and just the workshop noises in the background? I just love the sound of e well sharpened plane iron going through wood like butter 😊

      @@shopcatt643 I'm not sure if it was ever implemented, but it looks like RUclips was testing out enabling multiple audio tracks for videos. This is normally used to support multiple languages. But it would be cool if it was used in videos like this. Honestly, it would be really cool to have a 3+ tracks. 1 for ambience, 1 for shop sounds, and one for commentary/narration.

    Rex, I watch many RUclips channels on woodworking. Yours is by far my favorite. I am a retired expat living in Colombia. There is a big box store (like a Home Depot) nearby. But the tool quality leaves much to be desired unless you have A LOT of money. I have to go to local economy stores to buy wood other than construction grade pine. There are good stores for oak, cedar and moncoro at cheap prices. But the wood has significant cupping and must be flattened. I am a beginning woodworker with limited tools and workspace. Your channel shows how to do things within my capabilities. Most channels show how to use 1000s of dollars of equipment (table and band saws, miter saws, drill presses etc.) which I don't have money, space or access for to make a jig that will only be used a very few times. Thanks for keeping it simple.

    Watching you use that screw driver makes me wonder if you have discovered the fun that a Yankee screwdriver is. I learned about them watching grandfather, who because of a congenital issue with his dominant hand (Dupuytren contracture) had to insert a hammer handle, or any tool handle, he wanted to use into his right hand with his left hand. Since it was difficult to tighten and loosen his grip without losing proper positioning he used the Yankee driver instead. I like and use them frequently rather than dig out a screw driver or electrical driver.

    Okay, I found the music a tad annoying but not obnoxious like so many other videos. What I would really like to see Rex do is a detailed, with talking tips, etc on how to use a shooting board. I have been using these thing fro close to 40 years and dread it each time. I never found the need (or money) to purchase an expensive dedicated plane so I use what I already have and they all tend to hurt my hand. I now wear gloves with does seem to help but what helped most is learning to use a Japanese saw with true precision thereby often eliminating the need to shoot.

    Maybe my memory is faulty, but a couple of years ago on YT I thought you made a sawing bench/stool - the thing where you just kneel on the board and rip it without needing a vice, just shuffle it along a bit as you get close to the bench. Or you can sit on it and use the old French grip, ripping with two hands on the handle - just remember to stop before you hit paydirt. I know Chris Schwarz and James Hamilton have done shows on it.

    I feel kind of odd giving advise to someone with your experience, and I'm sure you have a good reason for doing it the way you did but...
    I found it odd that you spent time truing and squaring before a majotlr rip cut. Due to the uneven nature of internal stresses in wood, many times a rip cut will cause new twists and curves in what was previously a straight piece. I have always found it good to do major rip cuts prior to truing the lumber. As an added benefit you also lose less thickness when removing a curve across the width of a board that way. Video was great btw, I enjoyed watching it.

    Ho Rex, have a little bit “heretic” question. In my area, It is easy to get wooden handplanes, but mosty in sizes around 20 cm, or jointers in size of 60 cm. I was searching for plane that is 35-40 cm long, but had no luck, so i was wondering, if it would be possible to modify a jointer to that length by cutting off extra length and reflattening the sole. Is it feasible? Thank you very much.
