    Great work. I had to fast forward the parts where you used the table saw. Please use a push stick etc. Wood can easily catch and it’ll pull your fingers into the blade - and then they’re gone.

      This was exactly my thought. I've watched so many woodworking YT videos and I have never had a wincing reaction like I had when I saw the grab between the blade and the fence. The engineer over safety in me felt like I was in trouble for letting it happen! But I still have to say, your work is beautiful and your attention to detail shows your love for the craft. I'm glad I stumbled across your content! I just hope your future videos continue to show all ten fingers ;)

    Great work! Word of advice, use a push stick with a notch in it to push the wood through when it is so close to the table saw blade! Your hands are very talented and I dread thinking of something slipping on you and you loose a finger or two! Great ideas and craftsmanship! Please be safe!

  • @ILuv2learn

    Very creative and the result is beautiful tools. I would have loved to see you carve some wood with them at the end. When you were pouring the epoxy I thought "Ahh, he is going to put them on a lathe." You knocked my sox off when you rounded them off in your hand with a drill and sand paper and it worked! Thanks for the video, I liked it.

      I made a two wheel grinder/buffer out of a very ancient motor, a very long 1/2" bolt, and 2 sealed bearings. Works great. I also made a wood moulding cutter out of 1/4 hp cooler motor and the cutter spindle from a jointer. Amazing what can be made with some ingenuity.

    This really does look like a good idea. To make them last longer, he should've swapped the bevel, putting the cutting edge on the flat side instead of the stamped side. Other than that, well executed.

  • @johnphilippatos
    @johnphilippatos Год назад +4

    Ok, kudos to your patience and resourcefulness for creating these chisels, but there are a few things I'd like to point out.
    First and foremost, keep your hands away from the table saw. That is, if still you want to keep using your fingers.
    Second, in order to have a quality chisel, the rod must go all the way to the top of the handle, otherwise either the handle will break, or the hole that keeps the rod inside the chisel will widen with the hammer strikes and the chisel itself will be dismantled from the handle, possibly causing an accident in the meantime. Furthermore, it is a good idea to use a metal plate on the top of the handle that will be connected to the rod, in order to create a metallic area for the hammer to hit, and also use a metallic ring that will surround the area of impact, strengthen it even more.
    Third, you never use impact on the edge of sharp tools and upon the flat surface of ball bearings. You should have steadied the rod on the vice, and hit the handle instead, in order to press the rod inside it.
    All in all, it was a really nice try, and the oil dip was the correct approach.
    And to catch ahead on the guys that will provoke me to show my own video on making chisels, I proudly state that I'm completely useless when it comes to handcrafting, I just own a 60 years old wholesales warehouse, so I do have experience on how a quality tool should be made, used and treated.
    Cheers.

    it has to be said those chisels surely are beautiful.
    but...
    i will second what others have said about using a push stick on your table saw and i can only see one flaw in the way you have made those chisels.
    the first thing any workshop craftsman does with new chisels is flatsand the back or underside of the chisel so whilst i like that you left the sizes on i would have preferred them to have been on the front or topside rather than the back of the chisel for the sake of keeping the backside flat and true for longer.
    still, beautiful chisels fella many Thanks for sharing the idea and showing how you did it, Thank You.

    When when sharpening a knife or a chisel, you pull the blade towards you. NEVER, EVER go back and forth. The Japanese have mastered the art of tool and knife sharpening. Follow their lead and you will have razor sharp tools that do not destroy your sharpening tools.
