After your last video, I was actually toying with the idea of making a 1/2" version of the Stanley 96 with brass sides dovetailed into a mild steel base. I think I like your idea better.
Hi James, love the videos and projects. But I do have one suggestion based on your recent videos, including this one, where you took a different approach for the sake of getting the video out on time. You might end up burning yourself out - this happened to another woodworker in the UK, search for Keith Brown woodworking. He used to set himself up to do a weekly video and eventually it took a massive mental toll on him and he found he wasn't enjoying it anymore. Now he does videos at his own pace. May I suggest slowing down and doing projects how you would if you were not making a video.
Thanks man. It's not about time it's just when the videographer is in town. He drives an hour down to shoot videos so we try and get everything in for him. The video footage was all shot over a month ago so there's no rush that way just on the day of you have to get it done before the videographer leaves.
There really aren't any projects to use on it. As I don't do much with nails and screws. The commonplace is if you have a loose board you can peel up a bit of the surface put a nail or screw down and then glue it back in place and try to hide the nail. For general new furniture you don't normally want to hide the fasteners otherwise they become an absolute pain if you ever need to take it apart or make adjustments.
I don't have a Narex knife. I gave mine away to a friend a while ago. The one I have now is made for me by @danTheMakerMan it is a little bit thinner than a 16-in. It's made out of an old circular saw blade.
Watching the making of this project for the half-inch chisel, it came to me that you like spread sheets. Have you done a spread sheet about glues? It could be comparing similar glues of different brands and also different glues. We all accept the statements from the glue companies, but how true are they? Just an idea.
Back in the day, I was shown how to hide nail and screw heads by lifting a chip with a gouge. Works a treat.
That was a great video. Nice to be reminded that it is okay to just get in the shop and try something new.
Groovy wee plane.
Great job, James!
My fav thing is the world r really weird tools and esp really werid old tools. So this is super cool to me !!!

I would love to see that!
Thanks. Good Job.
I plan to plane. Plain and simple.
Handy as a pocket on a shirt
Beautiful, James! Fantastic work! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Fasten-ating 🖖
Nice little project! Always fun to experiment, especially when the end-result is quite great!
Ooooh, I need me one o' those 🤩
And it just so happens that I have a chisel with a broken handle that would be perfect for this 🙌
Someone from Syria once told me that they call hand planes "mice"! So someone else also thought about that resemblance!
Looks fun
World's first Mousetail Plane
I wonder if you could add a little something to make the eyes look alike.
A mouse? Obviously it is a tiny baby elefant!
thank you . nice mouse
Is a happy mouse pc? LOL. So cute.
This is fantastic!

That wouldn't just be useful for hiding mechanical fasteners but also dowels if you didn't want the ends showing.

Can you please do a project using it? The part where you are using it was too short. Thanks.

Comment down below. Hope that helps. Keep up the good works and Dad jokes
What type of saw are you using at ~6:46? I had previously assumed it was a sash saw, but I think I see you using it for crosscuts a fair amount.
That is a sash saw made by Jared greene. Sash saws have a crosscut tooth.
The tenon saw your using on your bench hook, is that filed for crosscutting like your Veritas carcass saw?
Yes that is a Sash saw filed cross cut.
Nice little plane ☺️.
Question ⁉️ how thick is your narrex marking knife??
I don't have a Narex knife. I gave mine away to a friend a while ago. The one I have now is made for me by @danTheMakerMan it is a little bit thinner than a 16-in. It's made out of an old circular saw blade.
@@WoodByWrightHowTo thanks 😊👍

Here you go. czcams.com/video/JFEPTPTtFsw/video.html 64 different glues in the most comprehensive glue test ever conducted.
Right on time! What brand ca activator is that? I need a large can like that.
looks like 2p10 which he talks about using in a bunch of videos and his website
2p 10 one of my favorites.
I just saw something. Did you not say in the past that you would hexagon your narex chisel handles?
It is something I have always planned to do but have never taken the time to do.
Understood. Curious as to how you will do it.
I would just clamp it in the vise and hit it a few times with a plane

"There's no right or wrong way to do it." You call yourself a woodworker? 🤨
