I watch these videos sometimes when I can't sleep. It's not boring. Just soothing. The calm tone of his voice, his worn, torn, weathered, gentle hands at work. The pure genuine craftsmanship and pride in his work. 😴😴......

A video is sometimes worth a thousand words. Just watching how Martin uses the stitching wheel, I know just where I've been going wrong. I now consider myself a virtual apprentice!
