Went for my birthday a couple of days ago (12/6/24) and it was _fantastic_ just as it was my first time 20-ish years before. Nothing has changed, Matthew is still providing excellent yet restrained service. I loved it so much. Thank you Jacqueline, Matthew, and team.

What’s the full music name in the background ?

Incredible story! As a lifelong carpenter, many things resonated with me. However, one aspect of craftsmanship that I feel was underrepresented is the struggle of skilled craftspeople who don't know how to sell their work. In today's world, dedicated artisans often find themselves working for others who have mastered the art of sales and marketing. This leads to the craftsman's contributions being overlooked, and they receive little credit or financial reward. What's the real problem? People are taught everything that schools offer, but when they choose a craft, they lack the knowledge of how to sell it and earn a living from it. Instead of teaching us how to sell our work and build a business, schools focus primarily on technical skills. This results in craftspeople being hired by others, with little control over their work and a small share of potential income. Essentially, they are simply laborers, unable to expand their horizons or become independent

Luis J gomez,

Finally an instrument worthy of my Borderlands OST

sound waves are amazing

Nice!

So it's basically silver steel?

amazing skill, such practice, your hands are so steady. I wish i knew what kind of ink he was using.

Curiously, the word industry was only mentioned once. We ARE in a war of industry against craftsmanship. Craftsman should and MUST be properly rewarded for their work, but they/we cannot compete with industry on price and very few people care about quality even as much as they themselves think they do. If they cared about quality goods, they wouldn't buy so many disposable goods constucted of cheap materials which do not last over time. The time when our possessions were heirloom quality and passed down to generation of our descendants is long gone. We need a return to craftsmanship and journeymen, but it is easier said than done.The first thing must be recognition of the path we are on and that it is not positive or capable of achieving for us a quality life. Once we recognize how we got here and where we are headed, we must teach others as well. Life issues now hamper us from just switching from one to another. If we want to start and be part of a return to these quality jobs and leave industry behind, we will need to do it slowly. We must learn the skills we need, and we must spend after working hours developing them, but even as we do that, it won't be profitable unless we create the market where people will gladly pay more for quality over disposable quantity. It won't happen overnight. We have been going down the path of industry for over three hundred years and it is OUR end not industry's that is in sight.

fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable thank you!

Professor Marchand's comment that "the tools and materials speak back to the woodworker" is the best description that I've ever heard of what I have just spent the last 40 years of my life doing as a carpenter and master cabinetmaker Thank you Richard Wright York, England

Beautiful Why We Must Be Born Again The Bible Way!!! The Way Back To Pentecost When Jesus told Nicodemus, except a man or person be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. St. John 3:5, he was telling him who needed to do it. Now, watch it. Matthew told what to do, Mark told why to do it, Luke told where to do it and John told who to do it. What’s missing? Didn’t nobody tell how to do it, until the great day called Pentecost when Peter stood up to preach. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38 KJV What to do? - repent and be baptized. Who? - everyone of you. How do we do it? - in the name of Jesus Christ. Why do it? for the remission of sins. What’s the result of doing it? - and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. The Jews did it. Look at the 8th Chapter of Acts, verse 4, “Therefore they that were scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the Word.” Verse 5 “Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.” Verse 12, “But when they believed Phillip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.” 14. Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 15. Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: 16. (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Acts 8:14-16. In Acts 2, the Jews did it. In Acts 8, the half Jews did it. In Acts 10, the Gentiles did it and in Acts 19, the Baptist folks did it. They all did it because God said that’s the only way to do it. Of the 66 books in the entire Bible, there’s only one that don’t fit in with any of the groups. That book is the book of Acts, because the book of Acts is the only book in the Bible that tells you how to get save. And, until Jesus Christ returns in the clouds to call his church away “1st Peter 2:9-10,” this gospel is to be preached by us to every nation and is still in force today till that great getting up morning when the dead in Christ shall rise first, we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them to meet the Lord in the air, so shall we ever be with the lover of our souls. Will you be saved today, according to the Holy Scriptures? Acts 2:38 KJV is still in force today till God’s body, “the Bride of Christ” is completed.

I thought these structures were actually made of mud😆, I hadn't realized there was a structure under the mud! The mud must be to cool down the building itself then

😊😊😊😊🌺🌺🌺🌺

Great video ,Thank you!!!

open your strokes. you just drop the kulmus onto the klaf and start writing. the koitzim you're putting in after the fact are serifs that form naturally when you write properly. if you don't want to do the fine shpitz-work like ashkenazim, at least do the flowing strokes that sephardim do.

I got home from McDonald’s once went to eat and my Big Mac had NO, ZERO, NADA none at all meat. I was so pissed I couldn’t even go back there and complain

LOVE self reliance,…!

Yes

People should stop confusing stuff with actual period damascus steel. It's only explainable by steel having properties given by nano particles or closely related science (carbide alignment or something like that in some instances). This has been theorized for ages, proven in one past test and in one recent study it was explained as having been due to a combination of a certain type of ore that was having particles aligned by a special finishing proccess, possible due to ore content. When the source of ore changed, the OP damascus steel couldn't be reproduced and over time the technique was lost because using it on regular ore gave no benifit. People simply didn't understand, it took both the specialized ore and the special finishing proccess. There's different ways to get something similar, such as using meteoric iron with nano particles which is naturally occuring or more modern methods. But if you want the actual real deal you have to go to a museum. Otherwise it's modern damscus, and there's a lot of junk out there that's garbage just being peddled for a cheap buck.

Had the privilege to eat here years ago. Hope to one day do it again. 🙂

And that man standing in the back cracking his neck was stelio kontros

Beautiful and inspring documentation. Thank you !

Watching this after Dan soder talking about it on JRE 😂😂😂

Who’s googled this after Dan soder on the jre

Here from Dan Soder’s JRE episode

She is excellent this is an excellent interview. Her work amazing for someone not injured personally. There is only one thing that I picked up on that is not represented accurately… that a full ingredient list is required for food cosmetics skincare etc. No, sadly not true. The ingredient lists are not complete and transparent. Most many toxic ingredients things hidden under generalized ingredient categories such as food flavoring or just “flavoring or fragrance”, “artificial flavoring or fragrance” and even “natural flavoring and fragrance” and for food and skincare and cleaning products full disclosure is not required. No protection anywhere as far as consumer goods products go

Beautiful!!!

Nate has become my favorite comedian. His delivery and descriptions are perfect.

I think if we lose this technic again we will have to wait till the old man reincarnates to teach again

Masuyama-san has saved 2 of my beloved pens, one, a Waterman Exception Night and Day, which Waterman told me they would fix for $495, and another, a Pelikan M1000, which Pelikan said they could sell me a new nib for some amount over $300. I am most appreciative that his talents are not limited to making a nib write in his style, but that each of these pens he was able to repair in a way that maintained the original writing character of the pen.

Beautiful!

Like this...thinking of starting an akiya movement as well

I am a rowing guy from Germany, loving our old wooden Rhine rowing boats which we still have some in our Neusser Ruderverein. Looking your video, I was happy to see your wonderful wooden boats, doing your maintenance together, living your community in your boat club - is is nice to see. Perfect! Greetings from someone who also loves wooden boats like you!

😊😊

Need photos and videos to see the beautiful

I’m so glad that I ran into this interview! I’m a crocheter and I handle yarn daily. I wonder what dangerous substances contain all of those the cheapest yarns sold at Johann’s, Michaels and Hobby Lobby.

"A deep understanding of what you are doing..." is at it's core...the reason we are attracted to our professions...our craft. Today's rush to certify instead of really understanding the foundation stones of 'Making'...is partly due to a greed of wanting more at our finger tips...when ever it is required. The reality of Craft requires pause...reflection...and intentional excecution. Few are called...even less attain the Mastery of their unique interest. Thanks for sharing this video of dedication and love for 'Craft of Making...of Doing.' John...ah Retired Architect. 🇹🇹

I never had much of an opinion on Robert Louis Stevenson, up to now, but it’s certainly dropped a few points! I looked at pictures of toy theaters in another window, while listening, which contributed to some ideas I’ve been having about a puppet show….thanks!

And home decor fabrics are way, way worse. I used to work with them but the chemicals coming off of them were so pungent and would make me feel very ill. I knew cancer would be in my future if I continued. Funny thing was, some of the most high-end fabrics ($500/yard some of them) tended to be the worst offenders. I still hate to think of these yards and yards of awful fabrics hanging in clients homes, bedrooms, children's bedrooms, off-gassing. I'm just getting into sewing apparel now and I haven't run into any fabrics that are anything at all like I experienced with the home decor fabric. I assumed, until this interview, that apparel fabric must be a much more regulated product. Apparently not so! I'm in the US by the way. Great interview!

Johnny build was a great addition to, once again, just a wicked project and video!!!!

Thanks for publishing this story on an amazing artist

That’s how it’s harvested? What’s that chunk weigh?

Dan soder sent me here lol 😂
