    Hi Marc, I’m from Bogota, Colombia and although not speak English, I really enjoyed it for about a year their videos and contributions to this wonderful profession of wood. am a carpenter and I like my job, I have 18 years of working with wood and I must say that I love my job. maybe that’s why I am interested in your videos and I like the fun and do your job. thanks for the contributions they made ​​to make work more fun.
    blessings to you and your family.
    Greetings from Colombia

    Thankyou for inviting internatioals. My father was a cabinet maker, and had a lot of hand tools. Unfortunately I recieved very little when he pasted away because I was so young. I have not heard nor seen anyone mention how to hide finishing nails in a inlayed project. If it was soft wood he would take a 1/4 inch wood chisle and carefully gouge a 1/4 inch to about 3/16 inch deep pocket with the gouge piece being just lifted. With just a tooth pick to hold the fresh gouge open he would very carefully tap in his finishing nail. Then he apply a liitle wood glue to the gouch(s) and lay the gouge piece back down. with a damp rag wipe each gouge then place a board to cover the gouges and then place weights on top of the boards and call it a day. the next day he would fine sand the whole surface. Surprizingly nobody couyld tell where the nails where..
    One of the many things he tried to force me to learn when nI was very young.. Thought I would share the story.

    The David Marks videos are great. Of course.
    I liked your rock star thing

  4. Woohoo I can’t wait to try the arbor tech turbo plane!

  5. Thanks for keeping us both educated and entertained. Once the shop gets cleaned up, I plan to get busy turnin’ and burnin’ by reorganizing and using the new tools I recently acquired. I could really use the router bits — actually I could use everything, but the router bits are on top of my gotta have list.

    Congrats to all the winners.

    Congratulations to the winners!

    I second the other Jim’s comments and add these:
    Being a proud Papa is always the most enjoyable part of your day.
    It’s great to make sawdust but even better to make memories.
    Then it can merge and coincide with projects for him.
    Enjoy!!

  9. The Turboplane looks like the bee’s knees for rough shaping wood for turning.

  10. Tim Martin January 3, 2013

    Oh, Oh! sign me up for the TURBOplane. I have a set of chairs that I plan on dishing out the seats. This would make it so much easier.

  11. Jake Maughan December 31, 2012

    I’m a beginner wood worker who found your videos on youtube. You provide a ton of information for someone like me, who is just getting started, to hit the road running. Thanks for all the help. Keep it up!

  12. Alex Pierce December 30, 2012

    This probably the best and most enjoyable woodworking internet based show around. Can’t wait to tune in for another great year of projects and sawdust.

  13. mitsuhiko takahashi December 30, 2012

    enjoy your site!

    thanx

    I’ve been burning bandwidth watching old episodes of the podcast for the last week or so. I’m really enjoying the show and learning a lot. I’m about 1/2 way through the charging center as I write this. I’ve subscribed and look forward to the rest of the episodes. You guys do a great job and obviously have fun with it. Thanks for doing this, I’m sure it’s a lot of work.

    Regards
    Cliff

  15. Chris Hoff December 30, 2012

    Thanks for all the great articles and videos. I have used this site for so many decisions on what to buy, especially when it comes to brand. My favorite video is the Festool vs Dewalt track saw. I chose the Festool and I absolutely love it. Thanks again!

  16. E Burrell December 29, 2012

    Thanks to your website, my husband now has to pay for a really expensive new hobby. thanks from both of us, but for different reasons!

  17. Douglas Baker December 29, 2012

    Hi Marc,
    I have been a advid woodworker on and off for the last 25 years and I’ve produced some really nice pieces of furniture and several other items. I lost my wife 2 years ago and kinda lost my interest in just about everything.
    After vistiting YouTube and stubbling upon your videos, it sparked my interest again.
    I’m in the process of building a couple nightsands and a dresser !!!
    I’m now a subscriber and visit you quite often.
    Thanks for the great videos and keep up the good work.
    Doug

  18. Jim December 29, 2012

    This has been a most enjoyable year that you have shared with us. A new shop, great woodwork and last but not least Mateo, your new addition.

    Thanks and keep going.

  19. DeanP December 28, 2012

    Thanks very much for the vids – appreciate the effort and your style. Have you considered making some simple toys in a video? Have a good one!

      This Spring I hope to make a toy truck for my son.

      • jHop January 3, 2013

        Crayon truck from 2x stock. Simple, basic, only hard part is the wheels. (I’ve got parts in three boxes in two locations. And snow covering the shop now, or I’d find the boxes.)
