It’s wonderful that a 150 year old workshop was preserved! Great video, thanks.

[@sfinsfevents]

Fascinating! But the background music makes it very hard to hear the narration...

[@Ratkill]

Yeah , you could really afford to cut the bg music volume by half.

[@solidtank7957]

I really like what you're doing with this series of videos. I'm considering doing some faceting so this information is invaluable to someone like me.

[@JustinKPrim]

Thank you!

Sorry, the music is very disturbing, I can hardly understand what is said.

[@MrJackhammer51]

Ah that is probably why things are called jet-black. Always wondered about that.

[@antiquevlogging]

Can't hear what's going on with that horrendous music

[@maverickstclare3756]

If there's one thing that helps me hear someone talking, it's a saxophone

[@stevenmclaughlin1834]

Is there a deference between jet here in Ohio and there ?

[@Gnarly_Waves]

I found jet in the woods in Canada and now I want to carve it
