[@eileenbrodie7686]

Silky saw= does it. Augering leg holes by rotating knife; does it… but, dulls knife blade, with one’s knife being essential for so many other uses that don’t dull it as rapidly. A purpose-made bushcraft conical chisel-tenon cutter, welded together onto a screw-auger of matching size, makes a great drill and tenoner for stools, etc. instead of using knife. Of course, knowing how to craft legs/holes using only a knife always a good skill, and knife can always be resharpened. Splitting lashings with buried knife=great technique.

[@TheScoundrel70]

Mike, I hope you do a series like this. Maybe one video every 2-3 months where you show a set of projects that can be done with "common" tools. I think including things like knots, lashings, etc. is a great way to expand the curriculum you are demonstrating, and showing the field maintenance of the tools is helpful to not only teach the field maintenence, but gives us an idea of how much work a tool can do before needing attention. This was GREAT!! I like the silent working demo, with summary and discussion at the end. This would have to be my favorite of all your tutorial videos, very well done!

Dear Sir, New subscriber here. I have followed you for a few years now on KZbin. Just watched your “building a Saxon house on Amazon Prime. I have always enjoyed your content. Ex military here, and you add to what I know. Your father however, pushed me over the top!!! Well the two of you interacting together. Simply amazing! I humbly thank you. I only wish my father and I had had the chance to do half of these things together. Sadly I lost him during a deployment. I live vicariously through these videos. I can’t thank you and him enough! Hopefully you will actually see this and know you have made a difference.
