Hello my dear friends, I am happy to be with you again. This story is about a hand tool. I turned a step drill bit, which I use a lot in my wood and metal work, into a hand tool. As you know, I love the mixture of wood and brass metal. In my opinion this tool was quite aesthetic. In addition to functionality, the form of the object is also important to me. There is an even more important issue for me when turning my works into stories; To present you the few days I spent in my workshop in the most delicious way. I have been sharing my works with you for a long time and I discover something new about myself with each work I do and his process makes me very happy. The idea of ​​taking a little tasty craft break is getting stronger every day. A small respite from our fast-consuming, impatient and devoid of aesthetics world. In my life, which is far from trends and a little outdated, there are flavors that I am after. Thank you all very much for sharing and making me feel that I am not alone in this journey. In this work, I will present examples of wood and metal workmanship. There are also alternative and simple approaches to wood turning techniques. I do not record how-to videos. If you have any questions, please ask, I am always happy to answer. Also share your thoughts and different approaches, I would love to listen. I hope this work will be a good accompaniment to your time while drinking your coffee or a glass of whiskey. I am happy to share with you this work in which I have lived the four seasons of my life, and I dedicate this work to my beloved nature and animals. Deepest greetings from me, my cat co-workers and singing seagulls to all of you. byOldHand. Don't forget to like and subscribe, I would be glad. Instagram @byoldhand

Your videos are like therapy, and should be prescribed to all that are vexed, wearied and distressed.

I am a carpenter myself here in ireland and there is nothing I enjoy more ,I do it during the day to make an income for my family and really love my job but there's nothing I love more like getting out to my workshop and also restoring some old tools but due to having a ten year old and two year old twins I just don't get that time anymore but thanks to your dear self oldhand you are keeping my finger on the pulse and I'm getting tha feeling of relaxation and calmness thanks to you,keep up the good work,many thanks from the emerald Isle.

As beautiful as always. It is a Meditation to watch you working. Thank you!

Wood buffed with beeswax and brass is poetry. I missed this little gem, a delightful slow offering, but catching up now. I work in the job with my mind, not with my hands, and find that I awake every day longing to be in my workshop or restoring my old house. I need to be creating with my hands, with the same attention to detail that I see I your videos… not only useful items, but things of beauty. And that process starts with one’s tools. Thank you for taking the time to share this, you’re always inspiring!

There is nowhere to hide from the mustachioed and striped helpers. I have two of these...

Hello again. I am in a fortunate position having taken retirement from a mad and frequently dangerous profession, helping my public for all my working life. Having found your short films, they ate just that.....short films, I am taking steps to create my own workshop, and gaining confidence and proficiency watching you. It is possible to stop being a policeman and start on a calmer and peaceful path in my life. Thank you

I really enjoy watching your "neoclassical style" stories. Can't wait for the next :)

Once again a great video in an old style workshop environment, with your furry assistants on hand to supervise your work, Wonderful to see your craftmanship. Very much enjoy the relaxed atmospere of your workshop. Thank you for sharing my friend.

That was very nice, and I enjoyed with a glass of wine. The cats...😊

Ormai metto mi piace ancor prima di vedere i tuoi video perchè so comunque che saranno un capolavoro, ciao amico alla prossima 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👋👋👋

Hey there my dear friend 👋☺️ Happy to see your new video! Wonderful craftsmanship and even better results. Love seeing you working on your amazing lathe! It really shows how much you appreciate tools! Happy woodworking my friend 🥃

Hello my friend, Your works are also a good companion for me, as I relax and watch your videos while you drink your coffee or a glass of whiskey and cuddle the kitties. The fact that your life is far from trends and a little outdated is absolutely beautiful and right. These days are far too hectic. You are not alone on such a journey..... Kind regards and looking forward to the next video Dusty

Che immenso piacere rivederti 😊 guardavo ogni giorno se avevi pubblicato un nuovo video .. oggi e stato una bellissima sorpresa vederne uno nuovo . Grazie per quello che fai .. i tuoi stupendi lavori mi fanno stare bene. Dai una carezza ai gatti .. io ne ho 9 e li adoro. Buona giornata e ancora grazie.

At first the entire piece looked so beautiful that I stopped the video at exactly 19:01 that moment with great sadness. Because I had no experience of how these things work, I never expected the tool to be cut. :) But you made me very happy at the end of the video, it was one of the most relaxing videos I've ever watched.I smiled big when I heard the cat purring at the end. He checked and approved. Very good workmanship. Thank you with my most sincere feelings.

Voici quelques unes des raisons qui font que vos vidéos sont à part : votre sérénité, votre travail avec peu d'outils électriques, votre soin de la réalisation vidéo, les bruits de fond comme le cri des mouettes ou les discussions au loin, la beauté de votre atelier, vos petits instants du quotidien comme une pause au soleil ou un calin avec les chats. Merci

hello master. Amazing work. good to see you again. we know such a hard to made this video :) but we cant wait for the next videooo.

I absolutely, positively love your videos!! Thanks for sharing them with us!!

A time to enjoy … your video with a glas of good Italian white wine … and my two cats of course 🤗 … thank you 🥰🥰 0:09

Long live craftsmanship.

I'm glad to be back to your cozy and timeless shop. Greetings from Italy

How did I not see these 2 latest uploads? Love it my friend

Very nice I enjoyed your videos very much. Thank you for the tips.

Hallo by OldHand , das ist wieder eine sehr schöne Idee. Mir gefällt auch das kombinieren von Holz, Messing und Kupfer. Ich habe auch schon einige Werkzeuge und Messgeräte so angefertigt. Deine Arbeiten sind mir eine Inspiration. Ich gönne dir noch viele Ideen und bleib gesund. Viele liebe Grüße Christel 👍☺️

Elinize emeğinize sağlık harika bir paylaşım olmuş kediler çok meraklı sizi dikkatle izliyor.

I’m so relaxed now. I love watching wood and metal take on a new shape and the finishing is just hypnotizing.

Yesss new video😍😍

Its a joy to watch your work, dear friend. Thank you for sharing your many talents. Peace and light to you.

Beautiful work. Thank you for sharing. 😍

I never get tired of seeing you work with (and on) your tools... they are so amazing! Definitely more interesting than the modern/automatic tools of today. Thank you (and your kitty co-workers) again for sharing 😁💙

Beautiful work, OldHand. Both the work and video editing was masterful. I always look forward to your latest endeavours! Steph

As always, it is good to see a post from you. The tools are indeed beautiful little works of art. But, it’s the journey of crafting these little works of art that is the most enjoyable for me. I imagine that sounds odd to some. But, this is what is pleasing to me. Anyways, I look forward to seeing what is next. Until then, 🥃.

Watching this video was meditation for me. Amazing work

Another wonderful story from your workshop of bliss. Your stories bring peace and patience in this frantic world, thank you for sharing them with us. The finished tool looks fantastic, nice work. The cats are wonderful, so inquisitive and playful. I'm looking forward to your next story! 😸

Simply perfect, as always! 🙏🏻

Great work again mate. I too use my metal lathe for wood turning, as I work with what I have, but the clean up of wood dust is enormous. It gets everywhere.

I enjoy watching your videos. The way you incorporate different things such as the sound of the birds, the fur helpers, the sound of your coffee maker and such. I enjoy the all of your videos but especially enjoy the ones with it raining. The sounds are calming and soothing. I asked once before about your home/shop and what country you live in. I can not remember so if you would be so kind as to tell me again I would appreciate it. Take care my friend.

Co najbardziej mi się podoba,oprócz projektów.....spokój przy pracy,bez pośpiechu👍👍👍. No i ta stara Jawa ,bo to chyba jest Jawa?. Piękna stara lampa wisząca pojawiła się w też na kilka sekund . Pizdrawiam.

Your work is magnificent, congratulations!😀💜💜💜

That is simple yet very elegant. Bravo. just a beautiful piece.

Just wonderful as always!

Very nice 🥃👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

une fois de plus un travail de précision , dans un décor chaleureux et une mise en scène , bravo

This is art, this is OldHand !!!👍👌❤️❤️❤️🙏🏆 Wow, I'm in shock, like a child when he hears a new story told by his grandfather...simply amazing !!!❤❤👌

Relaxing ❤

The magic moment !! ❤. ❤. ❤

Amazing 👏👏👍✌

Beautiful work, great tool to have.

Beautiful craftmanship and again; beautiful filmed. All the best from Groningen in the Netherlands.

Yet another wonderful video. I came home today from a stressful day at work and saw you had posted a new video. About a half-an-hour later, and a little vodka later, the stress is gone. Thank you good sir, as always.

Beautiful!

Thank you

GREAT job. Peace for the world❤️

Amazing work, dude! Really well done!!! 😃 It turned out fantastic indeed! BTW, I have 5 cats here... And your 2 are really similar to 2 of mine! 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Gracias

Maravilloso 🥰

Hello my dear friend, as you recommended, I watched your work with great pleasure while sipping my drink. I don't appreciate what you do in terms of whether it is right, wrong, incomplete or faulty. I watch your work as the pleasure you get from doing it and the visual pleasure that you give us. Thank you very much, and i remember with respect 9:05

Beautiful piece.

Sounded like quality control kitty was most content with the finished product, and I would agree with that assessment. Great job with excellent quality as usual sir, thank you for the video, enjoyed watching, and appreciate your attention to detail.

Those joys. This is a satisfying experience to consider working with an artisan you want.

Nice to see a fellow coffee drinker and Cat lover. Your cats seem to be a big help to you. I haven't thought of using a step down bit in a hand tool. What will you be using it on. All the uses I have ever had to do with a step down required hand drill or drill press pressure. Regardless it is a beautiful tool, good job.

👍👍👍

Exquisite ❤

*Olá. Muito obrigado por postar mais um trabalho. Hoje, com sua permissão, gostaria de escrever mais profundamente sobre o sentimento que toma conta de mim quando te assisto. Quando olho algum trabalho que gentilmente postas, sinto-me como transportado para o passado. Explico: Não sou afeito a toda esta tecnologia representada pelas máquinas modernas, muito embora saiba que as mesmas revolucionaram o trabalho do homem, permitindo ao mesmo, especialmente, que desfrutasse de mais tempo com sua família, caso seja esta sua vontade...toda esta tecnologia promoveu também um sem número de facilidades e de vantagens que podem ser explicadas, em resumo, por uma produção em uma escala impensada antes da revolução industrial, para tender a demanda de um mundo que, infelizmente, consome de forma irracional. Mas, neste processo todo, algo, para mim de suma importância, se perdeu, que foi a prazer de fazer com suas próprias mãos, aquilo que nossa mente, e nossas necessidades mais prementes, ditavam. Isto é o que, dentre várias outras coisas, o que teu trabalho representa para mim: O resgate de fazer por prazer, por amor. Sou um homem que valoriza, e muito, as coisas mais simples, uma vida mais simples, sem grandes complicações. Valorizo os momentos, meus momentos com pessoas, com meus nove cachorros...valorizo as pequenas coisas, os momentos felizes mais singelos que minha família, sem sequer perceber, me proporciona. Valorizo, em suma, a vida, pricipalmente aquela que se apresenta a mim em sua forma mais simples. Quando vejo teu trabalho, teu ateliê, tuas ferramentas mais simples, como aquele alicate já bastante usado, ou uma caixa da Starrett que apareceu no vídeo de hoje ou, quando vejo teu mobiliário, ou o vapor que sai da tua cafeteira, ou ainda teus gatos a te observar, ou o canto de pássaros, ou o cabide de metal dourado (e muito bem polido), tenho a confirmação do tanto que valorizo este tipo de trabalho, e de ambiente...são, para mim, pequenos resgates de memória, que trazem fortemente a lembrança de meu amado Pai, e do tempo em que eu o observava fazendo tarefas simples, com ferramentas simples, mas que perduravam por décadas a fio...e por tudo isso, por tudo que me proporcionas, te sou grato. Um forte abraço, e desejo de uma vida longa, saudável e feliz, para ti e para os teus, é que te desejo.*

Stunning results!

Thank you for another wonderful video. You bring such peace ❤

Köszönöm a mai terápiás kezelést. Mindig jó látni a nyugalmat ami árad a munkádból. Külön köszönet a négylábú inasoknak, hogy a videók elkészítésében aktívan részt vesznek. Ma nem volt vendég munka közben akivel leültél volna teára, és a videó végén nem volt ital és koccintás, pedig ezek a szép darabok is megérdemelték volna.

Very cool

❤❤

Love it! I've seen those tools before but didn't know what they were for. For making the recesses for different size screws and etc. Right? The wood you used was extremely nice too. I'm sure this will last far longer that the modern counterparts

Where do you live It looks very nice And also kind of like a little workshop in Paris Love your videos btw Very therapeutic

Such great work, few on youtube are as good, Have you ever watched Uri Tuchman?

Good.Very good )))Cat...Geranium )))Mentally )))

Superbe

😻😻

At 9:29, is that a lamp made from an old wooden wagon wheel hub?

При обработке дерева оборотов больше надо , 2000 примерно , если деталь снимаешь с патрона то надо ставить метку чтоб установить обратно в том же положении , после того как проточил деревянную заготовку прошел грубой наждачкой надо намочить заготовку водой чтобы ворс поднялся и затем закончить шлифовку 500 зерном , для снятия фасок лучше выбрать что то с более широким углом , например можно переточить большой метчик на м20 или больше , или взять большой зенкер , ступенчатое сверло не позволит снимать фаску в глухих отверстиях , и в ручную снимать фаску выходит не особо красиво , лучше использовать шуруповерт , а еще лучше сверлильный станок .

Danke für dieses schöne Video. Es ist eine Wohltat in dieser hässlichen Zeit voller Gewalt, Hass und Krieg Dir zuzuschauen. Ich hoffe inständig, das Du genauso Tag für Tag lebst, wie Du es hier zeigst. Dann gratuliere ich von Herzen. Bitte bleib Gesund und zeige mehr von Deinem Können. Beste Grüße aus Deutschland 🍀👍🙏🏻🙏🏻

Turn to Jesus Christ while you can. [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. [17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Bu kedi milleti niye böyle?

You made a beautiful tool in a beautiful way in a beautiful video my dear friend! Bravo and thank you for this video :)

Wonderful and congratulation for the your art.

👍👍👍
