Thank You Paul!!! I have been having a heck of a time. 😃👍😎
Thanks Paul, my father was a carpenter before he became a civil engineer and he taught me how to use hand tools. The saw is my arch nemesis and my father always tease me and challenge me to make a straight cut. My cuts were always swervy.
Any tips on cutting angles? I’ve never seen hand sawing without getting parallel cuts.
Wish I woulda watched this before butchering my wood
Putting up wooden baby gates. I work late at night. Hand saw is the only option for me. Thank you sir
lol
Just perfect and exactly what I needed to clear some thoughts and concerns about what I was doing. Very well, thank you.
Thanks for this. I want to do a few woodworking projects, but I don’t trust myself to use power tools safely nor do I have the space to operate bigger equipment. Naturally this leaves using a hand saw but I’m hopeless with them. I’ll pick up a vice and give this a try.
Great Mr. Sellers! Wish you had shown us the split.
What vice is that? Where can I buy one?
I need to cut garden sleepers that are 2.4m long but I’ll never get them in the vice…!🤣
Thanks! xxx
What if i dont have a vice?
Won’t the oil lubrication discolour the wood?
Everything you do is either on the untidy bench or using a vice. What do you do if you do not have a bench and a vice?.
He makes using a saw look so easy
u trash u are sawing very bad
This video actually was very insightful and philosophical. I subbed as soon as the video was done!
First of all sharpness of saw and for second quality…. Even best saw which is not straight, not sharp or just very cheap, make a difference
Thank you for sharing these techniques, you’ve helped me a lot. I still need a ton of practice though 🙂
But how do you do this if you don’t have a work table like that
All that wood dust and no mask?
I could watch Paul saw, plain or chisel wood all day long. I would love to work alongside him for the day. I love wood. Magical.
Thank you Paul. This was very informative
Wonderful
Thanks now i can make my wood kunai thiner
thats a really fast saw damn
Awesome tips . Thank you
Jeez you will not believe how bad I am. My cuts are so wonky that my saw gets stuck half way through
Very good thankyou!
Thank you. Now I can saw straight.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks & hello from Plano, Illinois
Thank you nice technique and lesson.
Uuugggh wish i watched this before i cut….. Now i have a crooked wood
Excellent explanation. This exactly the cut i need to make for garden furniture slats. New subscriber. Cheers.
Damn!! You are awesome. Thank you. I’m learning so much.
So nice to hear a lovely soft Midlands(?) accent on one of these videos. Thanks!
So that’s why the saw is bendy!! I always wondered!
I only came because this looks extremely satisfying.
3:16 lmao me every time
unintentional ASMR
my main hobby is wood, i dont have much use of my left arm,and i dont have power tools and i am learning this stuff all over again after 7 brain aneurysms, these tips are helping me so much , thank you paul !
The sound of the sawing changed when you got to that knot at the end.
Thank you, Paul for a knowledge that’s worth fatherly advice cuz I never had one beside me.
Found my new favourite woodworker!!! Awesome video thank you
What happens if you clamp a mirror to the table showing the backside of the piece so you can watch both sides at the same time?
Thank you… you made that look easy. I could not even have cut straight across the grain on that piece of wood.
Ok man. Seek the Lord and saviour Jesus Christ before it’s too late. John 3:16
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” Hell is real and Heaven is also real. You don’t want to spend an eternity in Hell torment without God. The only way to escape Hell is to follow Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour. Study the KJV Bible to know more and pray and seek until you find Jesus. Don’t delay tomorrow might be too late. You are not promised even the next minute. Do it now
Awesome teacher. I even cut a bagel 🥯 perfectly.
