William,I am sorry for your loss. No, you will never get over this. AS boys and men, we cling to our mother for all emotional strength. When we have an accomplishment, first think we do is show Mama. When we hurt, we need Mama. When she is gone, the things we do seem to have less value, there is no one left to give us the heart felt praise we need. My projects, wood working, or you name it, I need my Mom to dote over me. Mine has been gone for ten years now, I miss her everyday. You are an excellent wood modifier and a darn good instructor, I enjoy your shows and look forward to more, along with your dry sense of humor.
My thoughts are with you as you heal. We can be grateful and realize the nature of life has played its rhythm as our parents leave us. You are a fine man to appreciate those that matter to you and your heart. Time will be your elixir.
Very sorry about your mother, mine has been gone 43 years, and my father 8 years ago, it will rock your world. I grew up learning about basic wood working under my Dad's gracious hand. I am thankful for His influence in my Life. I love your sense of humor. As alway I have to watch the video several times because they are just so filled with great stuff.
William, Sorry to hear of your loss. Your humility in expressing your thoughts shows how much it has affected you. Thanks for your continuing to add videos. I find them very helpful, not only in learning new approaches to a woodworking problem, but also by teaching me to "slow down" and think the work through.
Mr. Ng. So sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers go out to you and your family. In relation to the video. Thank You for sharing this wonderful tip, not only on safety but quality production.
Edgebanding trim technique is brilliant. I mean brilliant! Anytime I did a hardwood band like that I used a hand plane to get everything flush since I always worried about router tipping as you mentioned....NEVER AGAIN. Huge thank you for that tip.
My Sincerest Condolences. Losing a Parent is very tough to go through. Thank you for taking the time to shoot this video. Excellent Jig. I will have to make one of these. I will feel much safer when I cutting small pieces or trimming edge banding. Take Care
Mr. Ng, I just learned about your video and came across this one, and I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She's been an inspiration in your life and has given you great support in you life. Therefore she's earned the right to walk the path of light with GOD. She now has new roles to perform and may her journey through eternity be a joyous one. Never put your memory of her out of your heart, for there is where she lives with you on in your life. Again, m condolences and I hope that your mother will Rest In Peace.
William sorry to here about your mother. My wife also lost her mother this past February. It hit the family really hard. It is never easy to lose a love one. One person said to me which I would like to pass on to you it I could. "Your mother is just walking a little ahead of you to make a home or place in heaven so that one day you can be together again. My family will pray for you and your family that one day God can heal your heart. I am new to the wood working projects but love to make things out of wood. I came across your videos and I really like them so please keep them coming and I also subscribed to your channel.
Sorry to hear about your Mother, William. Hope you are doing well! Keep busy with your great woodworking and you will be okay! Thank you for all the awesome videos and teaching.
After I discovered this channel - stayed up almost whole night. Enjoyed watching many videos. Thank you, William for paying attention to details, when explaining your thoughts.
Sorry to hear about you Mother passing. I lost my Mother and I know what your going through. Your a giving person and She would be proud of you ability to teach and help. Our deepest sympathy and thank you for sharing.
So sorry for your loss, I took it much harder than I thought when my parents passed away. Time does heal. I only discovered your videos the other day and I must say you make the best well thought out videos on woodworking that I've seen on the net. I hope you continue to make these videos even for simple things like making your push stick. JT
William ... what can I say, you are a wonderful man and a wonderful teacher. Thank you so much for sharing all your truly special inventions/experiences. I adore your channel and will be here as long as you are. Thank you.
I saw you making a chair while back, really like it and the style. I'm not called myself a wood worker, just do it as a hobby. I have had learn a lot of cool tricks and things from you. Thanks for sharing. Very sorry about your loss Mr Ng.
Hi William. I'm so very sorry to hear about your Mothers passing. I know how it feels, I lost my Mother last November also. The grief does subside after a bit and she will become a great memory. Be kind to yourself above all else.
Thanks for your videos , you have a good demeanour in your videos which makes them a pleasure to watch.A lot of the training videos the commentator talks at the camera and you talk to the camera , there is a difference which make you sound normal in conversation.
Thank you for sharing a little insight to what your Mom means to you. I believe we can be a reflection of our parents and I'm sure your Mom is a kind and charitable person. Thank you for sharing your talents. Your Mom must also be thanked and recognized for raising a wonderful son. Til we meet again.
First of all, I'm very sorry for your lose my prayers to you and your family. Secondly I'm fairly new to woodworking and this was my first opportunity to view one of your videos, I think their great. I'm learning a lot from you and your since of humor only adds to my enjoyment. Keep it up you have a fan in me. Thanks
Sorry for the loss of your mother William. Lost mine 20yrs ago December at a young age. I still relish the memories as I'm sure you will too. Thanks so much for your instructions and humor in the videos. Glad I found your channel. All the best. Bob F
Sorry for your loss. I like your videos very much. You have such a precise and easy way of presenting. You make it look easy :-) The sign of the master.
Great idea, thank you. In Feb I lost my Dad and to say my priorities changed would be an understatement. Sorry for your loss and be sure that people come here for the content and it is well presented. I am pretty sure everyone understands what kept you from making videos for us. Again, thank you and sorry for your loss.
I hope time has brought you many opportunities to reflect fondly on memories of your mother and several occasions for new memories with your family and friends. Next time I'm in your area I plan on stopping by your school. Regards from Northern California. Keep up the great work, I learn something new from each video.
Great vide and excellent flush-cutting idea thanks. It can also be applied to the table router. It's quick to set up and quick to use. My favourite is to use a cordless multi-tool - no set-up time and just as quick for small projects. There are so many flush-cutting techniques that it could occupy a video all on its own.
Great to see some common sense and a great tips, I'm almost 71 a retired Joiner/cabinet maker and always open to new ides. Just make things in my small shop for fun now. I know what its like when someone you love passes, it leaves a big gap in your life. All the best for the coming festive season.....Peter
Sorry for the loss of your mother, but on the bright side... I think you are awesome and funny, keep doing what your doing. I will be practicing all the tips you show us. Thank You!
Mr. Ng I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. I am remaking my table saw fence and I am so glad I saw your video. Your jig is brilliant in form, simplicity and safety. Thank you
Hi Everyone. I want to Thank You all for your kind thoughts and well wishes. It really touched me and warmed my heart. I’m blown away from the overwhelming out pour of love I received in these pass few days. I wanted to respond sooner but I could not find any word in the English language that can express my gratitude. I appreciate you all. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!
+wnwoodworks You don't owe us anything William; the opposite is more far more true. Greetings from Finland, and should you need to express gratitude here then "kiitos" works. Back to making wood smaller, beautifully! ;-)
William, You bring a lot of enjoyment to the craft.. I really have to thank you for these great videos... Your fence is very simple in design, yet super functional . thx again..
You want to thank us? I think it should be us thanking you for unselfishly sharing your skilles and knowledge with us. Thankyou again for the enjoyment I get from watching your videos and the new skills I pick up from watching your lessons. till next time thankyou.
Precise AND fast. You are a class act...my hero. And sorry to hear about mom. My mom's been gone 12 years, and it is the biggest lost by a wide margin. But you will see her again, and if I sense anything as I watch and learn for you Sir; she will be very proud of you.
I thank you for your honesty and your expressions on gratitude toward your U-tube family. A family members death is a very personal thing. My dad passed almost 50 years ago and I still cry. My prayers are with you and your family.
Hi William, your channel was suggested to me by my best friend. I'm soaking up all of the knowledge you share with us. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom passing. I know how you feel. I lost parent too. Many thanks again for taking the time to make these videos.
William, I just saw this video from 2015 and, even though it has been significant time since this occurred, I wanted to sendalong my sincere condolences on the passing of your mother. There are not many events in life that impact a person in the way that a parent's death does; I know it was certainly that way for me. At this point, you may be far along in your grieving, but not your remembrance of her. I have heard it said that, as long as those who are alive remember their relatives who have passed, they are never really gone from us. I'm sure you are keeping your mother in your heart as I write this, and I'm certain you will see her impact on the way you raise your children. Take care William.
I have watch many videos but this is the best i have ever watch. Im learning how to work wood as hobby, but with your videos believe me, this will be easier. Thank you, you are a good teacher.
I'm very sorry to hear about your mother. Woodworking can be great therapy. Glad you are sticking with it. Also, I wanted to say I love the multi purpose use for the auxiliary fence. I think I will try to build one of these as soon as my new fence comes in the mail.
A few months ago I made your box fence. I use it with almost every project. I especially use the cumbie on top to hold feather boards and push sticks (boards). I love your content and sence of humor, ie "yellow pine". I grew up in a custom cabinet shop, making dressers, bookcases, cabinets. I consider myself a cabinet maker, not a wood worker. At 66 years old I am learning a lot of new woodworking skills.
William… Thank you for your excellent videos. I am a new subscriber. I am a self-taught woodworker….watched every episode of New Yankee Workshop, bought books on woodworking… and trial and error. It has always been my goal to figure out the safest and most practical way to do things. Your method of teaching is so understandable. I am a retired teaching golf professional. I know the value of being able to explain in understandable terms sometimes complex ideas. You have that gift.
What we have loved deeply, we can never lose. I wish you peace and good memories. BTW...I have never not got something out of your videos....thanks for them....someday I'm going to make something look easy too.
William, Thanks so much for sharing, not only the techniques and smart jig, but also your personal side with respect to your loss of your mother. In terms of the jig, I’m going to build that jig as soon as I get back into my shop. This jig solves a challenge I’ve been wondering how to address. Thanks again.
Sorry for your loss. I lost my dad in 2007 so can appreciate where you are coming from. Take care of yourself and respect your emotional healing needs. We will always watch your videos whenever you decide to post...you offer a great product. Thanks for all you do. M
Hi William, Sorry to hear about your Mom. Thank you so much for your videos. As a intermediate woodworker, I love your your approach and I learn a great deal. Don’t worry about the haters: it is a reflection on them, not on you. I love them.
We have missed your woodworking videos and gut-busting sense of humor. Your videos are so skillfully produced and always clearly explain your brilliant techniques. So sorry for your family's loss. Mom's are certainly irreplaceable. I believe that it is in tough times like this that our world is improved because of courageous people like you recognizing and demonstrating what is really important in life. Looking forward to your next release.
William. Thank you for sharing your terrible loss. I always enjoy your videos, they are such great detail. I am very sorry for the loss of your mother.
William: I am new to your site and appreciate your information. I was not aware of your loss three years ago and can understand. When I lost both my parents at different time and after that three brothers at different times. I turned to wood work to sooth my mind and knew that they would be there with me as I turned my wood to items that reminded me of them. I will be on your site all the time.
William. I built and have used your multi function jig now for 3 years plus. It works great for thin pieces of wood both vertical and horizontal. Thin pieces would sometimes slip under my fence and your jig eliminates this. Great jig for flush trimming and for taller pieces. Simple build and useful. Just wanted to say “thank you for sharing.” I’m appreciative for both your videos and your ideas. Stay well!
William, sorry to hear about your mother (even though its 2 years ago). I could not imagine a world without mine, and all the mothering I still receive is viewed with love. Shes happy when I fix things in the house and make some sort of furniture, so everything learned here contributes to the give-back, just to let you know what you do is still giving love back to Mama :)
William, thank you for sharing your heart! Just found your channel tonight and have sat here mesmerized for three hours! Thank you for amazing content!!!!
William, very sorry to hear about your Mom passing. I lost my Dad a while back. You never forget, but the pain does ease with time. Thanks for your wonderful videos. You have taught me so much.
William- your videos are awesome, and incredibly useful. I love your dry sense of humor, too. Thank you for sharing your knowlege and passion for woodworking.
Hey William, I just stumbled upon your videos. Very nice application of using a jig over the table saw fence. Excellent idea. I WILL be using this. Thank you for generously sharing your tricks & tips. They will make life easier for the production woodworker & SAFER TOO!!! Ill pass your youtube channel onto my fellow woodworkers. Also Im sorry to hear of your loss. You are a good son!!!!
Hi William, Although we have yet to meet ( I'm taking a few classes this summer) I wanted to express my condolences with the loss of your mother. Last year I lost both of my parents to cancer. I know how difficult it is to lose a parent. It's painful and nothing seems to make it right except time. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to helping so many become better woodworkers. I look forward to the upcoming classes this summer. All the best to you and your family.
I am so sorry for your loss. While I will enjoy all of the videos you can produce, it's the quality of your woodworking that I enjoy the most. I also enjoy your subtle humor ("your Spidey-sense"). Thanks for this new video.
William, so sorry to hear of your loss.....I was touched by your comments about our woodworking family. For many years I travels in my job and due to the travel requirements, I made very few friends. Three years ago, I retired and have pursued my interest in woodworking. Since becoming involved in woodworking, I have made great friends and met many wonder people and woodworking teachers. I have always appreciated your lessons, thank you so very much.
Sorry for for your loss. I find your thoughts and your ideas absolutely fascinating. The videos bring to life your comments and ideas. Your sled video is the best. Thanks again
I was in Cabinet making for 35 years. The end result product was all well and good. That's what paid the bills. The aspects of cabinet making that I had the most fun with, and frankly, was the most rewarding for me, was the jigs and processes I came up with. I wish you had been around then so I could have 'borrowed' your brain power. I watch many of these woodworker channels but I always return to yours.
William, I'm very sorry for your loss. Losing a pillar in one's life is a test of what we're made of. Blessings to you, and your family. May God's Peace abide within your whole being during this time.
Hi William! It's great seeing you again. One thing I live by, is that a good day is one where I can make somebody else smile. Your "real woodworker, uh-huh!" comment made me crack a wide one. And yes....I'll see you in the next video also! Have a great weekend.
+Prostheta Thank You. Laughter is what gets us through the tough times. I'm fortunate to be surrounded by people with a great sense of humor and positive attitudes.
Thank you for another great video and reminding us that we are all human. I look forward to more. I took the Blacker Chair class with William this summer and had an amazing week. He is a wealth of knowledge and willing to share everything and anything you have time for. Everything he teaches incorporates the highest quality craftsmanship (without going too far), the most efficient techniques, and tasteful designs. If you ever get a chance to take a class, do it. It's worth every penny.
thank you for helping to improve my woodworking skills so much. You should be very proud to help woodworkers all over the world. Kind regards from Germany
So sorry about your loss. We all love your videos and it is us giving you our heartfelt gratitude for getting helpful tips from a master woodworker! Thank you!
Sorry to hear of your Mother's passing, that is always a difficult time. I think your flush cutting method for the table saw is outstanding. I will be building one of your tall fence design fences for my table saw. Delighted to have you back, and you need not apologize for family issues. The family trumps everything else in life.
Thank you William for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate your approach to teaching and sharing. And I love your quirky sense of humor. Keep it up. Again, Thank you Sir
Glad to see you back. I have enjoyed your videos, and your sense of humor (????). Chucking drill bits will never be the same for me. Loss of a parent or a close loved one is never easy, and your return to us is welcomed, and I just hope that you realize that you will have memories come up that need to be dealt with for a long time. Only time will heal your wound, and none of us will see the effects you feel. May you find peace in activity, and I hope that you have someone close to help you through this.
Thanks William, I lost my Mum just one month off her 100th Birthday and that was back in Dec 2013 and I still think of her often and I was with her when she died. I can appreciate your loss. regards Mike
Hello William, your videos contain so much information that I'm constantly drawn to re-watching them. Thanks I learn a lot from you, I only wish I could attend some of your shop classes..
William,I am sorry for your loss. No, you will never get over this. AS boys and men, we cling to our mother for all emotional strength. When we have an accomplishment, first think we do is show Mama.

William, TH-cam has changed the world of instuction in woodworking. You stand out amoung them all as a great woodworker to follow. Thank you.
I just now found out your mother passed. I have lost all my parents, three brothers. Wood work is my outlet thanks to you. Keep up the great work.
My thoughts are with you as you heal. We can be grateful and realize the nature of life has played its rhythm as our parents leave us. You are a fine man to appreciate those that matter to you and your heart. Time will be your elixir.
So sorry for your loss. May she find rest where the righteous repose.
Thank you for the wonderful videos, I am learning a great deal from you.
Just for that flush cutting demo made this video worth while. The rest is bonus. Thanks for sharing.

Never mind, I just found the previous video on its use. Thanks.
So true. I'm sure she was proud to have you as a son. I know where you're coming from. See you in a bit. Enjoy your holidays.
the exponential safety of the jig really equates to better quality cuts, which actually end up seeming non technical. brilliant

Good to see you, William! The jig you demonstrated in this video is brilliant, I'll be making one. Thank you!
Sorry for your loss. I lost my dad in 2007 so can appreciate where you are coming from. Take care of yourself and respect your emotional healing needs. We will always watch your videos whenever you decide to post...you offer a great product. Thanks for all you do. M
William, sorry for your loss, grateful for the new content. It's always a pleasure to watch your videos
Hi William, Sorry to hear about your Mom. Thank you so much for your videos. As a intermediate woodworker, I love your your approach and I learn a great deal. Don’t worry about the haters: it is a reflection on them, not on you. I love them.
We have missed your woodworking videos and gut-busting sense of humor. Your videos are so skillfully produced and always clearly explain your brilliant techniques.
So sorry for your family's loss. Mom's are certainly irreplaceable. I believe that it is in tough times like this that our world is improved because of courageous people like you recognizing and demonstrating what is really important in life.
Looking forward to your next release.
+Anthony Hall Thank you.
William. Thank you for sharing your terrible loss. I always enjoy your videos, they are such great detail. I am very sorry for the loss of your mother.
You're really one of the great guys in the woodworking world today. Thanks so much for all the support you so generously give.
Mr. Ng,
I truly appreciate your skill and your production mindset. You sold me on this tall fence idea. Thank you!
William: I am new to your site and appreciate your information. I was not aware of your loss three years ago and can understand. When I lost both my parents at different time and after that three brothers at different times. I turned to wood work to sooth my mind and knew that they would be there with me as I turned my wood to items that reminded me of them. I will be on your site all the time.
Sorry for your loss. You are the "Real McCoy" and I really learn and enjoy your videos.
William. I built and have used your multi function jig now for 3 years plus. It works great for thin pieces of wood both vertical and horizontal. Thin pieces would sometimes slip under my fence and your jig eliminates this. Great jig for flush trimming and for taller pieces. Simple build and useful. Just wanted to say “thank you for sharing.” I’m appreciative for both your videos and your ideas. Stay well!
William, sorry to hear about your mother (even though its 2 years ago). I could not imagine a world without mine, and all the mothering I still receive is viewed with love. Shes happy when I fix things in the house and make some sort of furniture, so everything learned here contributes to the give-back, just to let you know what you do is still giving love back to Mama :)
William, thank you for sharing your heart! Just found your channel tonight and have sat here mesmerized for three hours! Thank you for amazing content!!!!
William, very sorry to hear about your Mom passing. I lost my Dad a while back. You never forget, but the pain does ease with time. Thanks for your wonderful videos. You have taught me so much.
Sorry for your loss of your Mom, What kind of person she was, shows up in the person you are, she must have been a great teacher too!
Thanks for all you do William. I've learned so much from your videos. Your mother is still watching and proud of you.
William- your videos are awesome, and incredibly useful. I love your dry sense of humor, too. Thank you for sharing your knowlege and passion for woodworking.
Good to see you back, Thanks for sharing . Thumbs up.
Hey William,
I just stumbled upon your videos. Very nice application of using a jig over the table saw fence. Excellent idea. I WILL be using this.
Thank you for generously sharing your tricks & tips. They will make life easier for the production woodworker & SAFER TOO!!!
Ill pass your youtube channel onto my fellow woodworkers.
Also Im sorry to hear of your loss. You are a good son!!!!
Hi William,
Although we have yet to meet ( I'm taking a few classes this summer) I wanted to express my condolences with the loss of your mother. Last year I lost both of my parents to cancer. I know how difficult it is to lose a parent. It's painful and nothing seems to make it right except time. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to helping so many become better woodworkers. I look forward to the upcoming classes this summer. All the best to you and your family.
Great video. I love your explaining and showing of the explanation on a real piece. I really wish you were still making videos for us to enjoy.
I am so sorry for your loss. While I will enjoy all of the videos you can produce, it's the quality of your woodworking that I enjoy the most. I also enjoy your subtle humor ("your Spidey-sense"). Thanks for this new video.
So sorry for your loss my friend.
Thank you. Your videos helped alleviate the tedium of my recent, month long, hospital stay.
William, so sorry to hear of your loss.....I was touched by your comments about our woodworking family. For many years I travels in my job and due to the travel requirements, I made very few friends. Three years ago, I retired and have pursued my interest in woodworking. Since becoming involved in woodworking, I have made great friends and met many wonder people and woodworking teachers. I have always appreciated your lessons, thank you so very much.
+Jim Pell The woodworking community is special. I find them to be honest, creative and have a great sense of humor.
Sorry for for your loss. I find your thoughts and your ideas absolutely fascinating. The videos bring to life your comments and ideas. Your sled video is the best. Thanks again
Flush trimming with that fence is a beautiful solution. Thanks for the great tip!
I was in Cabinet making for 35 years. The end result product was all well and good. That's what paid the bills. The aspects of cabinet making that I had the most fun with, and frankly, was the most rewarding for me, was the jigs and processes I came up with. I wish you had been around then so I could have 'borrowed' your brain power. I watch many of these woodworker channels but I always return to yours.
William, I'm very sorry for your loss. Losing a pillar in one's life is a test of what we're made of. Blessings to you, and your family. May God's Peace abide within your whole being during this time.
Hi William! It's great seeing you again. One thing I live by, is that a good day is one where I can make somebody else smile. Your "real woodworker, uh-huh!" comment made me crack a wide one. And yes....I'll see you in the next video also! Have a great weekend.
+Prostheta Thank You. Laughter is what gets us through the tough times. I'm fortunate to be surrounded by people with a great sense of humor and positive attitudes.
Thank you for another great video and reminding us that we are all human. I look forward to more.
I took the Blacker Chair class with William this summer and had an amazing week. He is a wealth of knowledge and willing to share everything and anything you have time for. Everything he teaches incorporates the highest quality craftsmanship (without going too far), the most efficient techniques, and tasteful designs. If you ever get a chance to take a class, do it. It's worth every penny.
thank you for helping to improve my woodworking skills so much. You should be very proud to help woodworkers all over the world. Kind regards from Germany
Sorry about your loss, my condolences. Good to have you back.
Another awesome video. I love following your ideas and it makes me a better wood worker. Thanks William. My condolences on your Mother’s passing.
So sorry about your loss. We all love your videos and it is us giving you our heartfelt gratitude for getting helpful tips from a master woodworker! Thank you!
Sorry to hear of your Mother's passing, that is always a difficult time.
I think your flush cutting method for the table saw is outstanding. I will be building one of your tall fence design fences for my table saw. Delighted to have you back, and you need not apologize for family issues. The family trumps everything else in life.
+Bud Birkenseer Thank you for understanding.
Thank you William for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate your approach to teaching and sharing. And I love your quirky sense of humor. Keep it up. Again, Thank you Sir
Glad to see you back. I have enjoyed your videos, and your sense of humor (????). Chucking drill bits will never be the same for me.
Loss of a parent or a close loved one is never easy, and your return to us is welcomed, and I just hope that you realize that you will have memories come up that need to be dealt with for a long time. Only time will heal your wound, and none of us will see the effects you feel. May you find peace in activity, and I hope that you have someone close to help you through this.
Sorry for your loss, I hope you are doing better now. Thanks for the video. Greetings from México
Sorry for you loss Mr Ng, thank you for sharing your knowledge with us :)
Your channel is awesome and educational. I'm sorry for the Loss of your Mom. God Bless and THANK YOU!!!
Thanks William, I lost my Mum just one month off her 100th Birthday and that was back in Dec 2013 and I still think of her often and I was with her when she died. I can appreciate your loss. regards Mike
Hello William, your videos contain so much information that I'm constantly drawn to re-watching them. Thanks I learn a lot from you, I only wish I could attend some of your shop classes..
