grats on 4k subs. I subscribed when you was fairly new to you tube and have watched 90% of your vids and you have taught me so much. I bought some carbides and struggled on how to use them Nobody I watched on using carbnides gave the same info you did. I also learnt a lot on using trad tools as well and my turning has improved so much with both types of chisels that I am a lot more comfortable in the work that I do. Still got a long way to go to get really good but am getting there slowly..... Thanks again guys and here's to the next 4k subscribers 👍👍👍👍

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

3k at the mo. Looking to get to 4k. So glad we have been able to help you in your turning. That's what the channel is about, having a little fun along the way. Thanks for all your support and comments along our journey. We really appreciate them. Toodle pip for now. Glenn & Liza

[@sandiekelley8513]

Really sweet feeder. One thought, with the snow blowing, one can add some clear plastic like from a water bottle, around the middle part to keep some stashed and dry feed. With openings at the bottom of it to let it spill out and for when refilling.

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@garym518]

Hello I have recently found your channel and are enjoying it very much. One thing I noticed is that you always make a point of fully closing any chuck before removing it. Is there a reason for this or are you just being tidy. Thanks for your time.

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

I do have a bit of an OCD problem but I need to fully close the chucks so they hang on the hooks I made for them.

Glen and Lisa, I watch your videos regularly and enjoy them and the knowledge that you share. Thank you for sharing. I have a question on a subject that I haven’t heard you say much about. How in the world do you manage to keep your shop so clean? My lathe is out in a small part of my garage. I don’t have a turning project to work on but maybe once a week or so if I’m lucky and I manage get shavings and sawdust all over my garage. I actually do clean up every time after I turn off the lathe for the day, even if the project is not finished yet. I have a battery powered leaf blower and a dust collector that I use during sanding and to clean up the shop with and I still find wood chips and dust everywhere. You appear to have quite a clean shop. And you seem to be turning something almost every day. I understand that the floor has to get messy but your tool holders and shelves are all quite clean. I was just wondering what you guys do to keep your shop looking nice and clean? I’m currently watching the bird feeder video and I have some logs that would be perfect for making a feeder like that. So I look forward to seeing you finish it.

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

Hi Herb. Thanks for your support in watching our videos. I just vacuum it off every time I've finished for the day. How did you find the bird feeder? I was very pleased with it. It's now hanging in the garden with nuts in it waiting for the birds to take them.

[@Blitz-yn4kf]

Herb I use this to clean up Does a really good job of both clearing shavings in hard to reach places and into spaces you can not see 😁🤣😁

[@HerbD-fg8dy]

Hi Glen, Thanks for the reply. I do vacuuming every time after I’m finished for the day, guess I’ll just have to do a better job. The bird feeder turned out great, really enjoyed watching you make it. Great tip on oiling the wood as you go to help prevent cracking too. I have a lot more green wood than I have dry wood so I’m going to try that with some of my other projects.

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

@@HerbD-fg8dy Yes, me too. Loads of wet wood, after they cut down the Weeping Ash down the road. Let us know how you get on.

[@michaelbrennan6582]

Hello Glenn and Lisa. Really enjoy your videos. Can you tell me what brand of headgear/ face shield you use?

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

Hi Michael. Glad you are enjoying the videos. We did a video on this already. Check out the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/foPWnIB_j6qdaqc

[@mikedaigle1582]

Beautiful piece! May have to give one a try. What are you brushing on before sanding?

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

Thanks Mike. Yes, give it a go. Let us know how you get on. Chestnut finishing oil, but any oil will be fine.

[@GordonAlexander-c3e]

Great job, what was the oil you were sanding with?

[@glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308]

Thank you Gordon. Chestnut Finishing Oil.

[@alanpywell838]
