Woodpeckers Shop Tour – How Precision Woodworking Tools Are Made

Woodpeckers Shop Tour – How Precision Woodworking Tools Are Made

I know I can’t possibly do the Woodpeckers shop justice, but after seeing the operation they run I knew I had to share some of what I saw. They run a shockingly advanced manufacturing facility, making some of the coolest woodworking tools around. #NotSponsored #MakingItAcrossAmerica #Roadtrip

Also, this is all from memory, so some assertions and facts may not be entirely correct.

https://www.woodpeck.com/ – Thanks for taking the time to show me around, guys.

And thanks to Patrick (Dragonfly Woodworking & Leather) for setting it up.

    Tried to order a set of their cubby drawer thingies. Unavailable in the UK, sadly.

    As an Ohioan, I’m proud of all companies in our state that are making quality products. I wish I could, but I just can’t justify the cost. I know they’re worth it… just wish they’d sell seconds with cosmetic imperfections.

    Must have been a totally awesome trip, wish I could go.

    Very cool! I kinda knew they were only about 10 minutes away from me, but never gave it much thought…

    Thanks for taking us along on this shop tour. Based on the few Woodpecker tools I own they are top quality.

    Because of this video and shiny new tools I have ordered one square and you have some explaining to do to my wife.

    @2:14, what is that centrifugal blower called?



  8. Ronaldo Messina on February 19, 2023 at 5:45 am

    why no SI squares? They propose metric rules

    Just. Amazing! 😍😍😍

    I would love to own some Woodpecker tools, but I’m not stupid enough to spend the insane amount of money for those tools which probably walk on water..no, my Stanley, etc tools do the same job for 1/100th of the cost!



  12. Richard Cournoyer on February 19, 2023 at 5:56 am

    This explains several concerns I had, and ….. well, I’ll just shut up now…. but as mom said….Pretty Red color.

    you should analyze and criticize it!

    my mind was wondering off also thinking id love to have a sheet of that aluminum to play with



  15. Clyde Ulmer on February 19, 2023 at 6:08 am

    Fascinating. I own several of Woodpeckers’ tools, all blistering good. I’m not surprised to see how advanced their manufacturing is. Clyde



  16. Adam York on February 19, 2023 at 6:09 am

    First?



  17. Steve Hasebroock on February 19, 2023 at 6:12 am

    Have many WP tools. Nice video, but more detail would have been nice. Good overview though!



  18. Eric Beckers on February 19, 2023 at 6:12 am
