Great quote Jamie. I find the converse to be true as well. Small men revel in the misfortune and suffering of others as I it makes small men feel larger in comparison. I know a lot of folks like that.

The mitered box joints on the third video are absurd!!! In a good way though, wow all that work for a joint that will be hidden.

Mafe: The second video labeled flattening a board with a kanna and a couple others is a 6 part series. Here is a playlist with all 6 in order. He does much more than flatten the board ;)
