Very nice looking piece, the fabric idea is a great one, may have to steal that one. Good job.

I have used this technique to clean up tenons, not cut them, so it certainly nothing new. I use a back saw and probably could cut them just as quick, and safer, than this, Not something I would want to see in Fine Woodworking

Why? What's the rush? By the time he had one shoulder/cheek cut, I could have used my hand saw and completed the same tenon, and a lot safer. This is not something I would expect to see in Fine Woodworking. By the way, I do have a Delta Tenoning jig for sale if anyone is interested.

Overall I like the idea. Most of all, "flesh" doesn't have to come in contact, only close as I understand it. Agree with APO, doesn't matter how many teeth go by before the stop if your hand, thumb, finger isn't in contact with the blade. I wish this man more luck getting it on the market than the up hill battle Saw Stop had with the major manufacturers. The technology makes sense and is long over due, no matter who produces it.

Does it come in other colors? Also, is one available for my band saw? Thanks for the laugh.

I haven’t seen the new show yet, the Memphis PBS stations don’t seem to have it on their schedule, and I don’t receive Nashville stations, so when in Cincinnati this weekend, I will check out “CET as I say it listed in their schedule. Looking forward to it.

Superdad, thanks for the comment. The photos I posted were taken on "move in day" so the shop interior looks a different today. What would I have is stickered on the floor in front of the tool cabinet or across the legs of the lathe, a little stacked in the corner behind the dust collector. I always have been pretty much of a buy what I need for the project type of guy, so I don't have a big stash.

Clamb, the dust collector is in the corner and was out of the picture. The jointer, planer, and band saw are on mobile stands so I roll them out and hook up the hose. Typically I have been jointing and planing with the collection of hand planes you see more and more, but still plug in when needed.

thanks for the comments everyone. Jorge, I didn't have a plan, it really is just standard construction frame building. I had an idea of what I wanted for the windows and their placement, heavy on the north light, wanted it insulated, and it does get pretty hot here in the late Spring, Summer, and early Fall, so the A/C was a given. Let me know if you need any more information, Rick

Like most, I will give him a try, but after watching the podcast, I will compare him to starting out with a very rough piece of lumber, and working it until it is ready to use. I think he'll have to work with the producers to smooth his approach, lose the "T-Mac" "T-Chisels" handle, this isnt a rap video, and will have to try an appeal to a broader audience. I'm sure he won't make everyone happy, Norm never did, nor does Scott Phillips, I'm sure he will find his niche'. Sponsers? What about some of the larger HAND TOOL makers? If this guy finds the bleand of both, then I would think Lie-Nielson and Veritas , Stanley, would step up. My 0.25 cents

Jim, outstnding work!! I am in the process of building this spice box from Steve's plans, I have the case built and have practiced some inlay as well, I purchased the inlay tools from L-N, but still have a way to go. Where did you purchase the hardware? I have been working on my chest in between other projects, and have been using this as a skill builder and probably using more hand tools such as a 71 1/2 router plane for the dados inside, etc. Anyway, you did "real good" Thanks for sharing.
