Enjoy your cold one!
Does the scratchy bottom bug you at all?
Damn you. I just ordered the HP8. No, not the fancy gold one. 🙂 I have no use for another block plane, but I can use it to shave off precise slivers of ham for custom sandwiches. I do love quality tools, and that one is just too cute to pass up. (oh, and I do make small items to precise dimensions, so it will actually come in handy.)
“I”m not so sure I can afford to save so much on lumber!” I haven’t laughed that much in a while. That was awesome.
"Could be there for peeing, you don’t know". Best line of 2021, hands down.
I’ve been watching your videos for years now and always love them, thank you James. I now hate your stupid golden plane (just jelous); definitely send the old basement version to @heystarfish100. How about a raffle from Bridgecitytools for all your loyal minion subscribers for one of those amazing gold versions? Founders IPA is delicious.
I truly enjoy and learn a lot from you. Thanks
I recently picked up the mini plane from Bridge City and am blown away by the quality. It sits on the bench and is within arms reach and has become my favorite plane.
I love looking at your videos. You are generally the first place I look to, to get advice about woodworking.
I have to say though, that plane looks incredibly uncomfortable to use.
Hey stumpy ❗️❗️❗️❗️I really need your help 🙏🏼 you’re the only one who replies that I can depend on for a solid answer, here is my problem😔
I Accidentally used Waterbase pre-stain wood conditioner and applied oil based stain 24 hours later I realized what I had done when the stain had not dried ….. what should I do ❓❓wipe it down with thinner and resand ❓❓please help 🙏🏼 PS love the show been a long time subscriber
Stumpy! I’d love to get your take on the ShopSmith multi-function shop equipment!
The hidden mouse reveal was the biggest shock for an avid viewer of the channel. 😧
I don’t care what your drinking when you are making a video, if your relaxed chilling out having a good time all good. Maybe you could talk about the drink your drinking, just a thought. You might get a new sponsor. Your hands shake no problem mind shake too 40 odd years. My kids have got the problem to. cheers from Tasmania
Love Founders. Like you, the only power tool I operate after opening the first ‘shop beer’ is the vacuum. Haters gonna hate. Love the vlog. Thanks
Cheers James 🍻👍
I just tried cross-country skiing for the first time. We moved to Colorado from Texas four years ago, and we’re just twenty minutes from Black Canyon National Park. In the winter they close the road just past the visitor’s center and groom it for skiing and snowshoeing. The wife and I had a blast on our borrowed and rented gear. Once all the ski equipment goes on sale in the spring we’re buying our own gear!
The humour in this was brill, those lovely sly digs just brilliant…..I too have a degenerative brain disease…..so I find holes in the floor as I stumble etc (no hole…just my excuse) but like you…I ain’t quit doing what I love…keep it up n stay positive (just don’t test positive!)
Here in Australia we have a saying … “That’s goin’ straight to the pool room!” from an old movie called The Castle. When we get something really cool like a gold plane it goes straight to the pool room so no one can touch it or use it.
1. Its -9 outside so I do as little as possible at the moment.
2. Aren’t Bridge City and Harvey in the same group now? Excellence all round – saving for my harvey bandsaw but might get a block plane just to encourage myself.
3. Moustache Mike in Spandex. Should at least have been a chapter name of the vlog.
4. New journal is very nice… You are right James about reading in the lazy boy whilst the Tv is on.
Gold, for its weight. Adapt to whatever the weather – just get outside, esp. when the sun shines. Hockey, football whatever, never supported a team. Just enjoy a good sporting game. I’d like your opinion / advice and encouragement for a friend. I have a friend who enjoys hand painting (art) and complains of issues with her hands and the results it has on her work. Do you have any words of wisdom?
Lol I was thinking that was a Founders Sessions and low and behold 🙂
And less than a month later we all froze in the coldest winter in over 10 years
mmm.. Vernors…
I come here to learn some woodworking things and listen to some yapping. I don’t care what’s in the can or that the koozie has a Red Wings logo. Keep on keeping on, James
No backlash. Wow just like my Stanleys 😀
I never understood why if you set up your tooling to produce whopping backlash, you can’t set it up to produce minimal backlash.
You are solid Gold Stumpy. Me personally… I only drink XXXX Gold.
They will probably believe you, and try to make a run for it!
😆
Hello neighbor! Hail from Ortonville MI. You asked: The February blues got us to purchase Rad Step thru E-bikes. It’ll extend our range from the teens to the thirty’s (miles, that is). Maybe we’ll stop by the shop as we rail trail by. With 5” wheels and fenders we’re hoping to get a jump on spring.
Talking about sketchy wood… 9 years ago a favorite sugar maple withered on our property. Had it cut down into 5’ logs. Turns out it was heavily spalted. I planked them into 5/4 on my 14” Grizzly after buying a riser kit and dried it in my diy dryer (attic above garage). Well, this winter I got a set of plans and made an entertainment center. Posted it on lumberjocks/FraidKnot. Your videos are an inspiration, and guide me to greater shop success. Is I’ll head to your plans section to support you more! Stay well.
You went out!😱 I’ve forgotten what outside looks like. 😭
Go Wings!
Thanks Stumpy…. I just found a supplier here in Australia and bought the HP-8… Like I needed another small plane… Of course I do! 🙂
Ah, Founders Beer! Ever had the Canadian Breakfast Stout?? That one was awesome.
I did notice the shaking every once in a while, just thought it was camera shyness 😄Sad to hear it comes from a disease. Hope it won’t affect your woodworking skills too much in a long long time!
Great vlog!

I live in San Diego, on those snowy winter days in Michigan, we go to the beach!
I liked this video but can’t get the opening scenes out of my head. Standing directly behind the blade, no upper saw guard, no riving knife. Is there something different about that scene that caused you to skip all your normal safety precautions?
(From UK) Sometimes I am considered a troll but in honesty, I just can not keep my mouth shut when I see people talking crap. So I speak up and critique or criticize or even call them tossers when the moment calls for it. I watched a guy the other day and I am not kidding he has issues and developing mental problems that are obvious to a holder of common sense, not to mention the wife worked in the field for 40 years. At that point I backed off and decided to mind my own business with him the more I watched his unusual decisions playing out. I had not actually engaged with him at this point but god it was building up in me. I have always wondered about the can on the table, never thought god is he drinking as that is your business and I know full well you are one of the most sensible woodworkers on the internet and in my top 3. It’s you, Cosman and Paul Sellers. Been watching you for years. I never ever have anything to critique you about, ever. That’s probably why you don’t see me as a troll. I just watch and enjoy. thank you for that. I had noticed the shaking. I hope you get to do what you do for many years to come. the wife has said on many occasions, "Who are you watching, Stumpy?" good luck dude, have a cold one YOU have earned it!
Just got the regular model. They are on sale right now. All I can say is wow. I am a luthier and woodworker. I will be using it daily.
do you sharpen the BCT plane blades with your TOrmek? thanks
"for peeing" made my day! Great response to all the ……….
Cheers!
I knew the 🍺, my favorite!
LOL My mother-in-law is a Red Wings Fan and I’m a Sharks fan. I love to tell her "Sharks love their Wings Red."
Whatever commenters say, keep doing you my YouTube friend. Your shop, your channel. Hater’s gonna hate. Likely because they are jealous. Just keep up the videos, vlogs and just plain and concise content for the rest of us. We appreciate it. Even when some may not.
Hi James. Love your channel, have learned so much. Also, love me some Vernors, the best ginger ale made. Regarding "bargins": I am a retired A&P, and we have a saying; the bitter taste of poor quality lasts long after the sweetness of low price. Incidentally, my first job out of tech school was at Willow Run airport in Ypsilanti. Loved Michiganders, just couldn’t handle the winters (I’m not a cold weather person).
BWAHAHAHA, peeing in the can! Stop, I’m going to pee!
I thought a magician never reveals his tricks? This disappearing mouse act is going into my repertoire!
Lol "You don’t know." Lol
If it is a tiny urinal, how can it be a "cold one"?
Stay frosty, Mr. Nubs. Bests xo
Isn’t there something somewhere warning about coveting thy neighbors tools. I am sure I saw it.
Sorry, in the "Redwings suck!" Camp. Denver native. Go Avs!
