Thank You Gillis....You have created a wonderful show and channel!!! I have liked and subscribed. So far I have only watched 4 shows & I am looking forward to the entire content your channel has to offer. .. TM
First video of yours I have watched, great workmanship! Shame on the tear out but cudos on owning it, just a little reminder for years down the road for you to look back on at your beginnings! You got a new subscriber now time to binge watch the rest of your channel as it’s too cold for me to be working outside in my unheated shop, keep up the good work. Best wishes from Canada, stay safe!
Gorgeous, and inspirational. The price of premium dovetail saws is, frankly, insane. This looks better, is personal and appears to be as efficient. Thanks.
Make a curf extender with a plate as thick as your sawcurf and the leftover piece of spine, you can use that to extend the sawcuts of half blind dovetails. Nice job btw 👍👍
On the off chance that anyone is reading comments on a year-old video: Ipe (this wood) is incredibly strong, it's also very toxic. If you're going to work it, wear a respirator. Treat it like purpleheart (it's actually nastier) or similar tropical hardwoods.
Fin såg, hur många tänder per tumme? Undrar varför man inte gör alla sågar som bågsågar, tycker det verkar mest logiskt!? När du borrar med en så fet metallborr så är det bäst att förborra så spetsen slipper smula sönder allt framför den, den står nästan still.
You did a great job. After watching this video, I ordered the pieces to do the same. It is now 11 months since my order and no shipment or communication after repeated attempts. I do not recommend Blackburn Tools.
Sorry to hear that! I’ve bought from them twice now, but from a European distributor, not from Blackburn directly. I did read on their website that they have a large backlog, but they should still respond of course! I hope it works out for you eventually.
@@GillisBjork , Their statement of being months behind was 3 months after I placed the order (February 1, 2023). The warning notice was not present at the time. I can understand 2, 3, and even 4 months of delay, but 11 months without communication after sending multiple requests for updates (October, December, and January) is frustrating and cause for concern. I have requested my order be canceled, and money refunded, so we will see where this ends up.
Can't remember the brand name but there's pretty much only one company that still makes them, should be easy to find from any of the good hand tool retailers
@@GillisBjork From what I see: the jaws of the tool are held by the saw blade and the pin pushes the tooth to the side without going too far ... I think this part is very important since you made the saw from basic parts. This part of the process determines the smoothness and right direction of the cut. Some time ago I bought a cheap general purpose saw because I needed it at the time and it happened that when using it in deep cuts the saw would drift to the left and there was no way to make the cut straight. This tool of yours seems to me the correct one for its purpose. A few years ago, I saw a person who adjusted the teeth using only the pulse of the hand and the problem comes when some teeth are more inclined than others; this causes the saw to leave rough marks and drift to the left or right. I think you achieved the smoothness and right direction of the cut. Thanks for uploading your video it was very informative. Por lo que veo: las quijadas de la herramienta se sostienen de la hoja de la sierra y el pin empuja el diente hacia un lado sin pasarse de mas... Creo que esta parte es muy importante puesto que tu hiciste la sierra a partir de piezas basicas. Esta parte del proceso determina la suavidad y direccion derecha del corte... Hace un tiempo compre una sierra de proposito general barata porque la necesitaba en ese momento y sucedio que al usarla en cortes profundos la sierra se desviaba hacia la izquierda y no habia manera de hacer que el corte fuera recto. Esta herramienta tuya me parece la correcta para su proposito. Hace unos a;os vi una persona que ajustaba los dientes usando solo el pulso de la mano y el problema viene cuando unos dientes quedan mas inclinados que otros; esto ocasiona que la sierra deje marcas rugosas y se desvie hacia la izquierda o hacia la derecha. Creo que lograste la suavidad y direccion derecha del corte. Gracias por subir tu video fue muy informativo.
That's a great saw and a wonderful heirloom a tool to be extremely proud of
Nothing more rewarding than making your own tools
Great video! Thanks for sharing
Wow, the saw looks awesome! I’m very impressed with your craftsmanship. Please keep making more vids!
Loved this. Great work.going to give this a go.

Thank you very much! The old stuff is pretty bad but feel free to browse ;)
Such a great looking saw! This was the video that I needed to be comfortable in making one. Cheers!
Beautiful saw that you will use and treasure
Very nice and informative video. I just found your channel and have subscribed. I look forward to watching your other videos. Keep up the good work.
Hello Gillis, you can be proud. It has become a very beautiful tool.
Thank you August!
Härligt med äkta hantverk! Tack!👍😃

Very nice.

Yeah that's how I see it as well! Thank you very much!
Once again, a VERY nice job Sir!
Thank you very much Sir!
Very nice work buddy! Great handle and seems to be good weight to it too. 👍
Much thanks! Yeah the weight feels awesome, very much worth the difficulty of working with such a hard wood!
Gorgeous, and inspirational. The price of premium dovetail saws is, frankly, insane. This looks better, is personal and appears to be as efficient. Thanks.
Thank you very much! They are pricey indeed, was considering a few options but glad I went for homemade in the end!

Ooh that's not a bad idea! Thanks!

Fantastic - shame about the chip out, but it now has its first battle scar :)

Update: Blackburn eventually refunded my money in full.
Inpirerande video!
Another nice tool made wow Paul Sellers has had an Influence on you I think. Yes?
Thank you! For sure, Paul Sellers' channel has been invaluable to me!
Where are you from??
👍👍👍
Where do you get that tool to set the thooth of the saw?
