A truly wonderful insight into the amazing wood shops by some of the most talented and skilled craftsmen that exist in your country. Will certainly view all the videos related to the craftsman included here for further inspiration. Thank you so much for providing such an enjoyable and extremely interesting video. Traditional craft and its promotion is so important - so grateful for this contribution and other similar content that you share!!!

Based in England (UK) but aim to be heading your way to realise my cabinet making dreams. Queen Anne style and Federal furniture are of particular interest to me. I have previous traditional fibrous plastering knowledge and am currently completing my second year on a traditional stonemasonry course in Bath which is so interesting and rewarding . In particular it’s fascinating to see, contrast and learn how different crafts tackle related skills in varying ways. Will cross the Atlantic after the conclusion to my masonry course to add to that knowledge in wood!!! Thanks once again for your video posts!!!!

I met Frank at a woodworking show in western Ma. about 15 years ago; he stopped by my woodcarving booth at the closing of the first night. After purchasing one of my carvings he commented to some of the other nearby woodworkers that my dovetails were in his eyes; "perfect", he then graciously invited me to have dinner with him at a local restaurant. WOW, let me say that backwards, WOW. A night to always cherish and remember ! ! ! ~ Myron Hood

While most shops contend with dust and heating issues, mine is in the tropical rainforest of Tobago. The temperature is always between 68 and 88 fahrenheit. I blow all dust out into the surrounding forest, back to where it came from. The local woods, (mahogany, cypress, cedar) are incredible and inexpensive. I'm a lucky man!

I just love Frank’s round shop; it would be such a neat room to have. A place to be alone where the only sounds made are yours. It gives a feeling of bright warmth, safety, and the over all feeling that there are previously untried possibilities available if one just will pause, breathe, and begin again.

Those shops are all great. The guy with the off grid barn that he bought on eBay was amazing. The old fashioned, aged woodworking shops are a journey back in time. True craftsmanship. Not the commercialized materials that you see today. A dream of mine is to discover woodworking in my own shop/man cave. Currently I'm barely keeping my head above water financially and I feel almost like I'm trapped. I work in the office furniture business as a builder/laborer but the focus is on quantity with most pieces being comprised of compressed particle board held together with cam-locks. Maybe one day I can afford to buy my own time and learn how to do some quality builds. For now I'm just happy when I get a chance to use my wormdrive circular saw. Great video. I hit the like button. Keep up the good....woodwork

Nice work. I was fortunate enough to work with Frank Krausz for a year & had the opportunity to see his home shop. It was an incredible experience even though we went back & forth about whether cutting pins first or tails first was the best method for dovetails. I expected to learn quite a bit, but I never expected his appreciation of my hard-earned skills or that I could actually show him a few tricks as well. Whenever I doubt my course in life or find myself with a low bank account balance, I always remember the words he spoke to me & why I return to my passion in life.

Thanks for this summary tour - I've watched many of your tours over the years. I was particularly touched by seeing "Phillip Lowe’s Furniture Making School" - Phil, sadly is no longer with us and the school has bee closed. He was a wonderful guy and a great teacher. Our woodworking group (Eastern Massachusetts Woodworking Guild) had many classes/demos in his shop over the years and he will be sorely missed. I'm fortunate to have the presentation plane that was given to him for the "Fiske Lecture 2010".

So much retirement goals in these shops. I love it all. Only just started on the journey of making things out of wood at almost 40 years old, but I plan to live to at least 80 years old so I still got most of my life ahead of me to learn from masters like these and the new ones.
