This series is a great example of how Lee Valley gives back to it's community. Amazing promotion for a wonderful organization!

It always amazes me how good woodworkers keep everything so clean and neat...meanwhile I have glue all over my hands and tools all over the place.

great presentation...simply explained, no gimmicky add ons, and best of all, Ill be heading down to shop tomorrow to build one......thanks.....

I've had one in my shop for nearly 30 years now and it's the best hold-down on the market.

I have had this hold down on my bench for many years and always works even when some other styles don't. It does work work well with the Veritas planning stop for work holding.

Just google WoodPrix and make some dust.

People talk too much. Just get your hands dirty. Nobody cares about long explanations. We can see what you are doing. More hands than mouth would help.

I'm pretty sure the best instruction is on WoodPrix.

I will make it myself this week I think. Just got instructions from WoodPrix and I'm ready for do it :D

I made it by myself. I used WoodPrix woodworking plans for that.

You should visit WoodPrix if you would like to make it by yourself I think.

I made it with WoodPrix instructions !

Is there something during the installation process that keeps the shelves from being pulled off the brackets at any point?

You can use WoodPrix plans. The best e-books and very detailed instructions. You can learn much from them and make it yourself.

Let's go to WoodPrix, if you want to learn how to build it yourself.

I’ve been a Poly X user for a while now and this is the first time I’ve seen the sandpaper technique after applying the finish. Works great - thanks for the tip.

I made a similar one with woodprix instructions!

The sad thing is some of these men will soon be gone. But...they'll live on through these videos!

Thank you Lee Valley

What an amazing community the Men’s Shed is. So great.

Magnificent program on this shed.The entire roll-out of Men's Sheds has made such a difference to us here in Australia & New Zealand where they have proliferated.In an increasingly divided & bitter society these places have the ability to help heal & overcome societal divisions.Well done, lads!

What an inspirational man, and still full of enthusiasm and energy. May we all end up as great as him in our later years.

These are great stories and a good support group. I think there should be more of these, coming from a new retired wood carver.

Thanks, this was very helpful in understanding the basics!

Nice one David! Thanks!

Great story and club. Shop Class for solecraft.

When I retire from more than three decades of cabinet making, I’ll be looking for a Men’s Shed chapter in my area.

Great introduction to a Men's Sheds - a community of around 3,000 Men's Sheds across Australia, New Zealand, UK, Ireland and Canada

An excellent yet practical informative tutorial. Thank you so much.

What a great video. I feel like every community needs something like this.

Great video. Could be helpful to add links in the video description!

What a great program!

Absolutely awesome

This is some low end woodworking for the amount of people and money involved. Seriously though

❤❤❤

When I retire from my job as a cabinetmaker, in a couple of years, I hope to find a group of friends like this; to spend my afternoons with in a small workshop.

Thanks very much for doing this very important series.

High-End machine shop as well

Hello, for the first time, we made a mistake and did not know much about wooden cutting boards, so we purchased a John Booth cutting board from the Williams Sonoma website. The cutting board was wrapped in a layer of plastic in the box, and the oil was moving around and damaging it. The problem is that the packaging is poor, and the cutting board surface is completely covered in dead skin cells. If you wash it with water, clean it with baking soda, dry it, and apply oil, dead skin cells will form and the surface will become rough. Is this correct? It's not because you don't know, right?

Nice work! How thick are your cutting board strips?

Great video with lots of useful information. Pity the sound is so bad. Could barely hear him talking sometimes. A talking style that alternates between whispering and almost shouting doesn't help. What made it even more difficult is that there are no closed captions (CC), which would have partially overcome the problem. Look into audio filters like compression (and CC) to avoid these problems in future.

Why you planting all the G. Onions in a clump.

Keep up the good work. Enjoyed the video.

Tu aurais été mieux de le faire en français….

This is a beauty. I love how well you were able to make that ambrosia pattern in the different boards work so cohesively together.

Love this. Nothing over the top, just beautiful wood, an attractive yet simple design and effortlessly executed to perfection. She makes it look easy.

Looks amazing great job

great job, beautiful table

Love seeing a person of color doing what they love.

Nice!
