Hey Will! A quick easy and very inexpensive improvement could be to use 12.9 screws (the black coated ones) with a heat treat, i use that as my knife edge and its been holding up for a very long time. As long as you have some fire and a glass of water you can do this easily :) ->dont bother to temper after hardening, 12.9 screws after hardening dont become all that hard&brittle because they dont have the most carbon in them. if you find that yours breaks sure give it a temper after hardening -> in case you dont know how to harden: heat the screw until it loses magnetic properties (should be a cherry red color, best seen in dark rooms) and drop it in water. Thats it! Thank you for the video, i will most certainly make one of these for myself!
@@ricardobrites8141 Hi Ric, thanks for reaching out and sharing your knowledge. The ones that I used are drywall screws designed for metal studs. I think they’re heat treated and remained sharp in my use. Unfortunately, I have not been doing a lot of woodworking due to lower back pain. Feeling better now and might do some more. Hopefully enough to warrant the use of new screws. Thanks again for watching.

Nicely done Will. I like the build, skillset and way to adjust for the tool in hand.
You should build one too, I already cleared the way for you. LOL.
Once you showed setting the width by registering against a chisel i said "oh shit i want one of those" to myself. Nice build!
Thank you. Now you know why it’s my new favourite.
В начале ролика нужно показывать итоговый результат. Иначе мы видим бесконечную тягомотину и непонятно что в итоге.
Thank you for the suggestion and for watching.
