Love watching you make stuff, reminds me of my childhood watching my dad make stuff in the shop. Precious moments in my life where time seemed to stand still as a project took shape one moment at a time. Thanks for sharing Jimmy!

I can't be the only one who assumed this was going to be a knife on one end and a crowbar hook on the other, as one piece. But that would be lunacy.

yup, I thought the same ... this is gonna be a cool knife ..... and then 2:15 happened. It is still a nice looking knife though.
@notjoeking90353 жыл бұрын
Thought crossed my mind in the final shot, knife and crowbar together. Still could happen, there is enough crowbar left over.
@sixft7in3 жыл бұрын
I hoped it would be a crowbar-handled knife.

All I could think is, I have got to try this. Sure I don't have the oven, the shaper, the magnetic hold down etc, but as a little project that might fail it conjures up a compelling force wanting me to try. Thanks for inspiring me!
