Shawn, I just wanted to tell ya that, in addition to being one helluva woodworker, you are a natural educator, with an easy, non-intimidating way of making everything you do seem simple. Your videos play so regularly in the background any time I'm in my little shop that I've actually grown accustomed to hearing your voice. Thanks for all you do, man. It never goes unappreciated!
I laughed when you gave the “staring at the front tire analogy”. That is exactly what I did in learning to ride a bike in the early 60’s-I was staring at the front tire and ran into the back of a parked car which then ended me up on the trunk of the car-oh did that ever hurt. That taught me to look ahead of the front tire.😎🤟 Good analogy!
Once again, no way I'm watching an hour and five minutes of video. And then I did. With the speed set to 1.5 mind you, but I did watch it. And even though I'm very familiar with my band saw and my carving knife, I still picked up a lot of tips. Not to mention the inspiration. Maybe spatulas will be my Christmas presents this year, eh. So thanks for this. Another great video.
Shawn, thanks for the video. Even though I’ve used a bandsaw a lot for years, I gained quite a few tips that my experienced brain missed over those years. Also learned a lot from the knife section. Haven’t used one too much in the past, probably because I was always using it wrong. Now I may try again, once I get a proper knife for doing so. Thanks again. Stay safe and well so you can keep the videos coming. Cheers, Tom
Even though I subscribed to you a long time ago... YT was not showing your new vids in my subscription feed. I was wondering why you stopped making vids but now I see that you haven't. Just a heads up and a Thumbs Up !!
yup now i want to make one, i have watched spoon carving videos and i learned more from this video than i did in all of those other videos. i hope that a band saw box might be in a later class
Oh my God, when you were using the relief cuts to tighten the kerf, I was having flashbacks to high school calculus class figuring the space under the curve....
The scandinavian grind on the Mora is better for woodworking than the micro bevel on the Buck. It is a lot more delicate though. I have been looking into bushcraft, and the scandi grind is preferred.
Not exactly how I learned to pass a knife in scouting (back in the day). I'd like to add one thing, you don't let go of the knife until the receiver tells "thank you".
Your an amazing guy Shaun (Shawn?). I love watching your videos, and I can tell you enjoy making them. I started with spoons and am now enjoying making other stuff too. Thank you for making the effort to share your knowledge of making crafts from wood. ( see what I did there? )
Great video, as soon as I get a band saw I have a nice beginner project. This was excellent tutorial for band saw technique. You didn't mention how tall of a piece of wood you can cut with that particular model. It looks higher than the five inches they indicate on Rikon's website.
Great lessons... one thing i wondered, are there any tell tell signs you are feeding too much into your bandsaw? I find myself watching how fast the thrust bearing spins to judge it 🤷♂️
@@BradsWorkbench That comes from watching experienced/professionals using any tool and especially lathes. The aggressiveness, speed and seeing the chips fly makes you feel that is how it is suppose to be done. Fine WHEN you become experienced/professional you can do that when doing demonstrations/videos because it;s impressive. Slow down and learn how the tool is working. No race to be run here.
Just woundering, why my cutting blade twisted (not straight0 when cutting. How to set the blade to not twist, as the word that I cut always not straight.
2:50 I was told if you cut wide boards into narrow ones, when you get to Heaven, God will make you stand way in the back. 32:08 If you set that board on the 3/4" side instead of the 3" side, you will reduce the angle and have less waste.

Sir, you are an amazing teacher and you use tools with great finesse! Thank you!!!!
Thank you, sincerely
Thank you, sir! You have done amazing work on explaining and showing the full potential of this power tool.
Thanks! I’m watching woodworkin videos a lot. I like your style because you explain the skill to do, not just how to do. You are a teacher.
Thanks
Thank you, another great video! I've had my bandsaw for a over a year and this series has shown me the most about how to use it
Thanks
These are amazing videos! So darn informative! You deserve a lot of more views!
you are one of the best channels on youtube
Thanks
I'm in the middle of making a spatula out of Jarrah. Thanks a lot Sean. Always learn heaps from your videos.
Cheers from Perth WA. 👍🇦🇺🍻
Never worked Jarrah myself.
As someone who just purchased a Rikon 10-3061, and also enjoy greenwood spoon carving, I see some combination projects in my future.

Makin me doing more like a chipmunk?
@@wortheffort No offense, but it sort of suits you, eh.

Ya, waiting to see how many complain about that part.
I'm always amazed by how much from your videos. Thanks!
Thanks
Awesome trick with the speed square on the band saw dude. 32:27
Hi Shawn. Thanks a lot for your valuable education. I learned a lot from you.

Ha haa...loved the part with the tape measure (infinity length side)...your videos are awesome...

hadn't planned on it. but maybe later on.

Great teaching!
Wonderful teacher
Really well explained and communicated!
Nice reference to "Better off Dead" with the paperboy and ski town. hehe
The fact that you caught that shows your age.
@@wortheffort I want my $2!!
Excellent video, either you are a teacher, which in this case you are or you had an excellent teacher or mentor
Thanks
as always, so instructive Thanks ...
definitely will be doing more pulling on my bandsaw now. Thanks!
easy technique.
This is gold

Shaun...Shawn...Shon...Shone...Shine...Sunshine 😜
The band saw is my favorite power tool
it is nice.
Fantastic great share thank you
Thanks

Wasn't trying to do a feature benefit of one particular model in this series. Just general stuff so didn't think the specifics were relevant.
@@wortheffort Thanks, when my local Woodcraft shop gets some in stock, I want to see them up close.
great info thanks
Great lessons... one thing i wondered, are there any tell tell signs you are feeding too much into your bandsaw? I find myself watching how fast the thrust bearing spins to judge it 🤷♂️
It should almost feed itself. But it is a 'feel'.
@@wortheffort dang.... sometimes i feel like i have to cut at a snails pace through the 3" oak posts i make alot of stuff out of

In fine form, Shawn :-)
Thanks
Hello great video, question I am between a 9 inch and a 10 inch WEN, any sugestions? thanks again.
Look at my start turning series. I cover all that there.
what kind of oil did you use
Just woundering, why my cutting blade twisted (not straight0 when cutting. How to set the blade to not twist, as the word that I cut always not straight.
Blade not running on crown. Watch bandsaw setup video. Bandsaw blades are supposed to twist.
As always another great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
Ta, brilliant 🙂

Got Sam Kenison vibes for a sec😂
Anyone else think that there's no way they won't have fewer fingers at the end of this experiment? Looks scary but I can't wait to try.
You’re watching the wrong channel.
OMG.. SAM KINISON flashback @ 2:45
🔨🔨🔨
I wonder how many got the psychotic paper-boy reference ;)
Wow Sean karma down otherwise you’re going to burst a
blood vessel lol
too late
2:47 Bhahahahahhahaahahahahah 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂💀💀💀
“I want my 2 dollars!”
BMX rider....
😀😀 I want my five dollars LOL
You could also set the knife down and let the other person pick it up on their own.
