Making a wood chisel

[@sandybutt9898]

Anybody who takes time to stop and pat a cat (or dog) is a good person in my opinion.

My grandfather was a woodworker. His workshop was full of different chisels, plains, wood mallets, and handmade clamps. When I was young, I was surrounded by the house stuff made by him. He left this world 30 years ago, but I still clearly remember him. Thank you for making me recalling him! You've made a wonderful chisel!

[@torbjornahman]

That's great, thanks!

[@idjles]

And my carpenter grandfather left this world 50 years ago - same story!

[@dewexdewex]

My dad died 7 years ago. I have all his tools, all of mine, the space and time now to use them to build my world around me. I am lucky.

[@jeffreycoulter4095]

Beyond a hobby. This is the finest in quality craftsmanship. Every step, every detail from scrap steels, through heat welding, shaping, sharpening and wood working. It doesn't get any better than this.

Thank you Jeffrey!

While the chisel is another work of artistry, the cats cannot be surpassed for their elegance. Gifts from God, all three. I only have a couple of years’ experience as a blacksmith, but a half-century with cats. I know the look of a happy and contented one who loves its family. That’s different from merely living comfortably with a family.

[@silverbullet7434]

Beautiful job young man. That will work for you and your grandchildren. I love seeing care n joy in tools made by a real craftsman.

[@andreasgiobel6355]

Good job. I just like to say that the small things that happens in the workshop makes the video genuine and entertaining. Like the Small parts you removed from the fire in the beginning.

[@adrianelsner4936]

My favorite blacksmith in action again. 👍

[@outbackladas]

My father was an “old school “ carpenter, he kept a box of Sheffield steel chisels similar to the one you have made, however none had such a beautiful handle as this one of yours. Wonderful craftsmanship as usual, such an enjoyable video! Love your cats, I have “ Rag Dolls”, long haired. Regards from down under.

[@torbjornahman]

Do you still have the chisels? Great tools! Cool, we are pretty certain there is a sizeable amount of "russian blue" in our cats!

[@outbackladas]

Thank you for the reply. Yes, they are still in the family, one of my sons is a carpenter and has inherited them. The carpentry skipped a generation, I am the metal worker which is probably why I enjoy your videos so much. My family share your love of cats, your cat is obviously well cared for and loved. Have a great day, regards from your Aussie friend.

[@JackPinesBlacksmithing]
