Wow, this Lady is absolutely awesome in addition to being very informative.

Love when you say draws and a triangle for a square

[Stupotskitron]

You may be self taught but from someone who is only just getting in to woodworking ….trust me you’re an expert and rather inspirational

The best shooting board video I ever seen. You showed the trick on the board that other videos don't show. The little edge to keep blade out of the board :) thanks again. I will make one and let you know when I pots it on YouTube. For sure the credit will be yours

I am carpenter live in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 I am really impressed with you work I have learned a lot from your work very good good tools I like your tools and tips and tricks

[RADCOMJ]

Never had a problem with your videos and I work in TV lol. I love the fact you are hailing out loads of other woodworkers that I watch. Your jigs are awesome... Looking at the screws in your board has given me ideas for a bench dog shooting board 😎 donkeys ear... No way 😂😂😂 oh and don't be scared of bees... They are lovely 🤗

[jamesbarros]

I’m a huge fan of both Kazman and Moses, and watched both their videos, but I appreciate how much more explanation you give (and the neat donkey ear attachment which should make boxes much easier) thank you!

Tamar, I recently found a hand plane that belonged to my great grandfather. I got it sharpened and ready for use and I needed a shooting board. You are my “go-to” for jigs (I have built your cross cut sled previously), so I made your shooting board. It is, of course, wonderful! Th ask you so much for your content. However, you might have mentioned how much fun using a shooting board is! I might have made it sooner.

Your videos are very well done. You speed up where you need to and slow down when we need to see some important information. Great job.

Awesome versatile shooting board. One way to resolve the fence issue. On your "donkey board attachment." Is to make a fence attachment for the donkey board. It can look like your 1st attachment that you made. Just make sure that the fence is tall enough. Cut a matching friction fit groove. Then cut a 45 on it on 1 end. Problem solved & removable if not needed. I always enjoy watching your videos. 👍🏾That lil' bit of silliness😂 doesn't hurt either. But it warms my heart to consistently see your craftsmanship improve. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I could not be more pleased with this jig. For square edge cutting the very 1st setup gave me perfect trims. On the long bevels it took me a while to get the cut square to the edge against the fence. I finally decided to make the fence on the 45 degree platform to be adjustable using t-bolts and slots. Now these long bevel cuts are perfect too. I'd never used a shooting (chuting?) board before. I don't know how I ever got along without one. The Low angle L-N Smoother works very well, as long as the blade is ultra-sharp. Perfection seems elusive in this trade, but this is a big step forward for me.

Amazing video. Wondering what you would do differently if making again? MDF on base or top? What do you finish the board with and what is used to help plane slide easily?

[davidhignett]

I am a keen woodworker and video maker. Thank you for sharing your (many) skills. Can you please tell me (insufferable idle curiosity) how many people are involved in your video production team. I am now quite old and unwell, but thank you for the entertainment (and hope) that you give. Best wishes from across the "Pond"

[tammyfinch]

Put a sacrificial board in front of it, between the piece you're shooting and the short fence.
I always enjoy your videos so much.

[jimkettle]

Hi, don't sell yourself short on your video production skills, it's very well presented; nice quick pace, clear and well lit, and a good mix of close up versus distance. The best features were; the 15 second starting snippet that outlined where you were going so we could understand the context of everything you were doing, the indepth demonstration at the end, and that you included your mistakes because sometimes we can learn more from mistakes than fluking it and getting it right, but not really knowing how we got it right.

[russveinot]

This is one of the nicest shooting boards designs I have seen. My hat's off to you. To stabilize your accessories just add a hold down to the board (like on your TS Sled). Also, on the donkey's ear, just clamp a scrap piece the same thickness as your work piece against the fence. BTW, I am impressed with your knowledge of what a donkey's ear is. Your skill set and knowledge base is really grown since I first started watching your channel. Looking forward to more of your great videos

[David]

I am 67 years old and have been woodworking since I was a kid, and yet you have taught me a few things with all of your videos. Yes, you can teach old dog new tricks! Thank you, you are phenomenal!

[zaledalen]

Brilliant and versatile shooting board design. Thank you. I need one of these, and making it will be a good project for me.

I love your videos, for very specific reasons: 1. No annoying computer generated distracting music jittering away in the background. So many video makers stick some excuse for music on their video and, as a musician, it's beyond annoying because I can't help listening to the "music". Thank you so much for not using any. 2, You don't waste my time. So many video makers spend up to three minutes telling me what they are going to tell me before they actually get around to telling me it. Fast forwarding through the preamble means I have to guess when they actually start saying something I need to hear. You don't do that. I love the pace you set, and if I need to think about something I can hit pause, or if I think I missed something then, heck, it's a video and I can go back and watch again. 3. You leave in your mistakes, and show how you corrected them. So many video makers pretend that they never make mistakes because they are so awesome, and of course they aren't.
Okay, that's almost enough fanboy gushing at you, but I should add that your narration is very clear and well paced. You have a relaxed, yet high energy, presentation style, and you set a pace that precludes me going to the Youtube settings and running the video at 1.5 speed, which I do with so many other videos. Oh yes, one last thing, I love the efficiency you demonstrate, and the simple little tricks and techniques you show me. You are simply brilliant, and I hope you never run out of subject matter.

So glad you advised to make sure that your plane blade is square to the sole.Too many people forget this step and wonder why they aren't getting it right. Love your videos as always. - Chris

[jacktrades]

Ah, that is a great shooting board. I somehow didn't realize I could make one with a stop to catch my work table. Thank you for the great insight, awesome videos. 😅
