this is the best banjo building video i've seen on youtube. I've got roger siminoff's pretty good book on the subject, but this video goes way beyond, particularly for people who don't have fancy tools, like a metal lathe. The approach to different operations and the fixturing and jigs used to accomplish certain aspects is valuable to me. Yes, a little sketchy at times safety-wise, but, darn if the video isn't a gold mine of ideas and solutions. thank you!
I've been watching your video thank you for sharing your passion with us and passing on this knowledge I'm sure some watching it won't matter but some of us such as myself will genuinely appreciate what you've shared with us your a true gentleman and a kind soul

Excellent work. Just goes to show that you don't need to spend a fortune on specialist tools to get outstanding results. Love your jig making skills.
Thank you for a very informativ video. Greatings from Arnbak Banjos in Denmark
Nice video nice banjo.
Great banjo build! Brilliant ideas for rim construction, neck angle etc!
I love your work esp without a lathe and the jigs you have made and improvised with
Sounds like Ric Flair making a banjo.
love that neck jig
Looks Great! I enjoy making things with wood. Want to make a banjo. Who do you suggest for complete hardware package? I will make all wood parts.
What a beauty! You talked me into it, I'm gonna try building one myself!😁
Brilliant! I got nervous a few times but your finished project is excellent!
Excellent video! Thank you for the look into your process. A lot of good tips and insights. Nice jigs too!
Great video and beautiful banjo!
You are a wizard!!

It’s a beauty.
Wow what an amazing video! very informative. thank you
How much would a banjo like that cost,, or do u make them for sale.
This whole video is a safety concern.
watched this until the router, couldn't watch after that.
No one buys anything you make lmao, your opinions are weightless
What kind of oil did you use?
Very nice work sir. Could you list the hardware and where you got them? Some diminutions for the banjo also?
