London Pattern Chisel - Unplugged Restoration

[@byOldHand]

Hello my dear friends. It's great to see you here again. This story of mine is about a chisel, one of the main hand tools of carpentry and traditional woodworking. I achieved a result with my aesthetic perception and beauty philosophy, by prioritizing functionality as in my usual works. As you know, I love the combination of wood and metal. This work of mine is a clear example of this. I used copper and walnut in this work. We will watch together many craft works such as woodworking, metal work, carbon steel and sharpening, coloring the wood , wood finishing, french polishing. This entire work is unplugged. I do not record how-to videos. If you have any questions, please ask, I am always happy to answer. Also share your thoughts and different approaches, I would love to listen. There is another important issue that I want to mention; Sometimes faster work and faster productions are requested from me. My world does not and will not flow at that speed. I want to leave this trace here, just as this craftsman spent his few days in the workshop. I hope this work will be a good accompaniment to your time while drinking your coffee or a glass of whiskey. I am happy to share with you this work in which I have lived the four seasons of my life, and I dedicate this work to my beloved nature and animals. Deepest greetings from me, my cat co-workers and singing seagulls to all of you. byOldHand.

Your care and finesse, combined with careful precision… is the guarantee that this chisel will serve you well my friend! The wisdom underlying your aesthetic approach comes through, and inspires… Thank you for this gift !

[@johnhaywood6358]

Another wonderful video. It was tea that I drank in my shop as I watched you bring the chisel back to life. May it serve another craftsman for many years to come. Did I perhaps see a new tango partner in the video? 2024 is off to a most wonderful beginning.

An absolutely beautiful piece of work. Well worth every minute. I thank you for providing us with an example of how ‘slow and steady’ wins the race. Not that there is a race to be won, but more so that in this day and age, where people are so time limited, that it is important to remember that a quality result comes from spending quality time. As a tradesman, the ideology of ‘do it once, do it right’ has always been in my thought process. Your work demonstrates this ideology perfectly! Heck, even white cat understands it 😂

[@byOldHand]

White cat undestands everything 😅👏🏻 Thank you very much dear friend. Great to see you here.

Mutual appreciation, a mindset shared, and a way of life, regardless the circumstances.

I whole heartily agree with your statement that you made about work faster, it is one of my issues, and I still am transitioning from a production mindset to a Craftsmanship mindset, looking for function, and pleasing to both the eye as well as the hand, the feel of a well crafted tool is, in my opinion anyway, the main communicator to the craftsman as to whether or not it becomes a go to tool for projects, it needs to feel right then it wants to look as good as it feels. Say hello to your kitties, a pleasure to see them , thank you for the project, enjoyed watching, appreciate your attention to detail, the chisel turned into a masterpiece of craftsmanship.
