Started processing the 25 or so pallets I picked up from local businesses into useable wood today. You've inspired me to be a maker. These videos really mean a lot to some people. Thank you.

i love how much skill you have with the band saw, its insane how much detail your able to do with it

Yet again, I can only sit back here in the UK and admire the build.You seem so modest, even prepared to show and share how you do things.You sir, are a credit to the USA. Rgds to ' Spike ' as well

Loved using the parallel clamp as a stitching pony! That was brilliant.

Brought back memories of polishing my Cadillacs when I was in the Corps... Same dye we used on the shoe welt! Thanks again Jimmy!

Foreign DiResta videos!!!!!!!!!! Yes.

Another excellent DiRestoration!

Sweet video Jimmy! Thank you.

"Years ago, these magnificent creatures once roamed our great land in the millions! Tonight ladies and gentlemen...in a clothing store...you will have the rare opportunity to see one for yourself. I give you...MAN!"

Awesome Jimmy! Beautiful work.

Inspired. Again. Thank you.

Another wonderful piece!

parabéns! perfeito! congratulations Jimmy

Thank you Jimmy, I learned more woodwork technics with your videos.

AMAZING!!! BEAUTIFUL WORK. 👍😉👍

You use a bandsaw like a sculptor, you have a great eye for free handing shape and form. Think I must have watched all your videos, some more than once. Great inspiration! If I can get my channel to be half as good as yours I will be very happy. Nice job 👍🏼

Nice work, Jimmy. I like how you finesse your bandsaw into a power rasp. I'm glad you brought that axe back to life. Well done

So beautiful made axe, l love to see you making these restoration projects

Elegant! A real beauty.

Thanks, Chief. Keep on trucking ! (from France)

Awesome job Jimmy I love the leather work!!

Great job Jimmy! I really love restoration vids. I appreciate your effort to bring that awesome axe back to life. The black stain you used was awesome. That set it off. Excellent. Great vid as well.

Great work, as always.

Beautiful axe Jimmy! Looks really good with black handle.

Great work Jimmy!

great work, I wouldn't have picked an other axe head, and the finish on the handle fits perfect. giving a tool an other hundred years of life is always honorable, these kind of projects I love most doing. a unique tool says so much about the person using it.

Great work !

another perfectly executed axe video. congratulations on the filson gig. keep on keepin' on.

Wow. Those people get to see a Jimmy Diresta video LIVE !!!

Another very satisfying video. His videos are equaled to a fine cigar and brandy while sitting in your favorite leather side winged lounger

It's nice to see the subsequent completion of the axehandle... Lots of fun at Filson !

Great job Jimmy

It Came Out Sweet Jimmy Great Work!!

Looking good, Jimmy! Thank you so much for sharing the process and answering my question in advance as to what you're using to ebonize the wood. Great work as always sir!

that turned out beautiful. and the good choice of contrast in the leather and the black paint you used on it. man, this is awesome!

Excellent... Cheers...

Great video.your bandsaw skills are a treat to watch. You use it as a sculptor.

Great stuff!

That's a mighty fine looking icepick you have there. Oh, and nice job with the axe, too.

Well done!

Love it!

I'm sharing this with the Axe Junkies on Facebook. They are going to love it.

A thing of beauty.

Coolness!

Love how you made the edge of the leather black. Looks great with the axe handle!

Hacks down a door..... Here's JIMMY!! :D

wow the wood look really smooth

nice job Jimmy, at first I was like ah why hide that beautiful wood by painting it black. didn't realize it was a dye till after. amazing look. the way you can see all the grain through but also get that black matte look is beautiful. nice job indeed.

nice. I like the black finish

ASOMBROSO!! SOS UN GENIOOOOOOO!!

Ken Burns effect, that's new! Everything else, classic Jimmy. Thumbs up!

Nice work as usual Jimmy. great bandsaw work,makes my 50 years at it look like an apprentice. keep up the good work....Opa

Jimmy...even if you create a thousand axe handles... I'll always find something new to learn and appreciate. Great Work as usual. Or just the DiResta Way I assume... Fun fact: I met a buddy on a flea market the other day. In front of us plenty of tools. Both spoke it out: what would Jimmy do. we laugh so hard. Thanks for the time and effort, the spirit and the uhs and ahs in the end. Greetings from Germany.

steel leather and wood, i love it awesome job.

That is one beautiful looking Axe ( you have so much skill in what you do)

Master bandsawsman!

Belíssimo!! Parabéns pela habilidade!
