I Read a Review

I did! It was a review on some chisels a person bought. The commenter said it took her or him four hours to flatten the back of a chisel on a diamond sharpening plate. I thought to myself, ‘Is that really true or even possible? Can fine-grained, chrome manganese steel hardened to 59HRC be so…

Dovetail Tester

There is no substitute for practice before and in the process of actually cutting dovetails. Occasionally someone gets it straight off but mostly not. The exercises early on improve your chances of success and aiming for the bullseye of a good result is definitely a question of ‘getting your eye in’ before the real work…

Philip Morley Shop Tour

This Summer I traveled to Wimberley, Texas to film at Philip Morley’s shop. The goal was the capture the creation of the Morley Kitchen Table for the Wood Whisperer Guild. You can still get this project at the Pre-Order discount price until it launches in November. While I was there, I asked Philip to give us a little shop tour while also showing off the super handy Morley Mortiser. If you’re interested in building one you can purchase the plans here. If you’d rather buy a CNC-cut kit, you can do that here.

Thanks to Philip and his family for letting me invade their space for a week.

…Never to Return It’s a simple truism in every sense. An era has passed, never to return. Look into any past culture anywhere on the globe and you can trace perspectives on art of the day for that era. Each continent has expressed who it is in multidimensional works of art crafted by the human…
