I didn’t realize it until after it was uploaded that the lighting wasn’t that great.

Kevin your lighting was fine. I’d you don’t want to talk during the video, which is fine, you could use the closed captions to add information. I really appreciate everything you have done. Very inspiring!

That's something you don't get with bass wood, a nice grain.

They are Very helpful, Im gonna get a glove before I try anymore though, found out the hard way. Cheers!

Old Son, how do you keep your blades so sharp? And where do you get that soft Bass Wood.😃😃

This piece of pine I’m using here isn’t all that soft lol. As for the knife, it’s long overdue for a good sharpening
