Name: Doug Robinson City: Raleigh State: NC County: Wake Join Date: Jul 2006 Age: 47 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 7.00 over 30 days | That was not bad for a beginner. I think I have to find another hobby...I'll never be anywhere near that good. Reminds me of the Maloof lecture videos. These guys do incredible things and all by eye. I measure 5 times and still screw it up.

Name: John Richards City: Hickory State: NC County: Burke Join Date: Oct 2005 Age: 33 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.07 over 30 days | It is pretty amazing, but remember that it was PINE. I'd like to see him do a video with maple and knock them together like that. It wouldn't go together. Frank can do some amazing stuff quickly, but it is nothing anyone couldn't do with practice.
I'm happy with my 10 minute dovetails.

Name: Alan Schaffter City: Washington State: NC County: Beaufort Join Date: Dec 2005 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 7.00 over 30 days | I was truly amazed, and only a little less so after reading about the right angle blade on his bow saw. I watched the video before reading the footnotes and couldn't figure out how he cut out the waste with such a wide blade and without turning the saw!!! |

He continues to be an inspiration to me. I also hope the press will help the cause of getting that 90 degree saw blade come back.
And Delta Unisaw back to "Made in USA"!!! I was so happy to see that too. Not to mention a pretty slick looking new saw.

Name: DaveO City: Clayton State: NC County: Johnston Join Date: Aug 2005 Age: 38 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 7.00 over 30 days | A couple years ago I saw Frank do a demo at a TWA meeting. He did his DT's in pine. They were fast, the wood was soft and forgiving, and the fit was just OK. He didn't use that fancy bowsaw blade (that's a sweet idea!!!) Better than I could do in a half hour, though. I do like his method of pins first then tails

That was funny, but boy can that cause you problems with hardwoods!!!
Break out the bigger hammer and then break out some new wood because something is going to slip.
