    I'm so glad that there is someone out there who is more of a glutton for punishment that I am. It's a real public service you are providing here for all the people slightly less damaged than you. Even though you put the wrong boots on it.

    Amazing craftsmanship and end result. I enjoyed the music, too. The coconut juice was a bit gross however.
    Wife has about 100 nutcrackers of all sizes that take over our home every Christmas. I had been thinking of making her a life size pair when I retire. But, after watching your video, I’m not so sure about that idea anymore. Plus, it looks like I would need to invest in tools I can’t afford, like a CNC router, jointer, big lathe, 100 more clamps...
    Bravo on a great job!

    • @JackmanWorks
      @JackmanWorks  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Big lathe, yes. But I don't even own a jointer and I showed 2 different methods of doing those end caps, one with the CNC and one just on the lathe. Not that I would recommend building this though lol.
