I did not post this video earlier because there are so many good sophisticated woodworkers here and thought it might be a bit embarrassing. But after it went out with my monthly newsletter, I was surprised by the response. With a bit of encouragement, I decided to post this short simple video and hope someone will find it helpful. Better late than never.

Don’t know why this struck me to be so funny…maybe has something to do with really liking the “Naked Gun” movies.
Sandhill, I’ll remember your advise next time I’m at burger king.
William, you’re a class act. Love your website and the style of the furniture you do. I’m really a big fan of Greene and Greene. Your tips have been really helpful.

I see now, its all in the wrist Although I don’t think my dad would approve of the “proper way to chuck a drill bit” around his shop. Especially with a helicopter in the same room. Haha, great video.

Nice. Really really nice. After the cross cut sled video, I was expecting a solid 10 to 15 minutes on the issue. Thanks for the laugh…

Good one! This looks like an excellent technique. Unfortunately I can’t afford it yet, but who knows what might happen between now and next April fool’s day.

Thanks everyone, I had a good laugh from all the funny comments. Sarcasm! Sarcasm! silly of me to expect anything else from Lumber Jockers. My kind of crowd. I decided to post this video because I felt the expectation were too high for me after the sled video. I couldn’t take the pressure, so I decided to lower the bar a little, didn’t mean to take it down this far. Thanks for the kindness even after I took away 31 seconds of your life.
