Video

[Chris Parks]

I saw a video and I think it was linked from here of a man who worked on his own in an old fashioned workshop in America. I can't be more specific than that as I can't recall what he was making. It showed him arriving at the shop, starting all the machinery etc and getting on with his days work all on his own. Thanks for any help on this.

Are you talking about Jarvi bench video? - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3utt2Y5aH0

I don't know if that is what he is looking for but it was fun to watch.

Thanks!

That was fun to watch! Interesting technique on joining the base to the top

[Chris Parks]

Thanks Eduard that was it. Absolutely astounding, I wonder how long it took him to perfect the tools, techniques and jigs and then he makes it look so easy. I think he is a man who does something he truly enjoys every day he goes to work.

I believe the thread you are thinking of was a man making a wooden watering tub for a local farmer. I believe that thread was about 8 months ago. Although the process he used was very old time, the video may have been shot in the 1970s or possibly 1980s as the end of an era.
