it was really good watching how comfortable he is with the jigsaw and just knowing that he will in his own time become confident with the other power tools you have available for him too. Just as a general question and absolutely not a criticism, do you Americans never V nail your work? I have noticed many other American channels just drive the pin nails directly in, I was always taught to drive nails at opposing angles like \ / to draw the work tighter together. As I said this is absolutely 100% not a criticism just a real deal genuine interest question from a Scotsman regarding the different techniques we all use. Very best of regards from Glasgow in god's own finest creation (or over the wall in the Frozen North as we call it 😁)
Absolutely he is working up to a router next lol. And yes I do v nail on some projects and like you said it sure does draw the pieces together tighter, on these camper builds the glue actually soaks into the wood and draws them together as it dries so it is recommended to put the nails in straight to allow that to happen. Thanks for the excellent feedback and comments you are appreciated.
@@dogpatchfabyou're certainly giving him the confidence to believe in himself and the real truth of life that nothing is beyond somebody who can use their hands and brain together, I can't wait to watch him develop as the build progresses 👍 Thanks for the info on the straight nailing and the glue too
I love that you encourage the young man to do things himself.
Love this. I have an 8yr old grandson and just starting him out on birdhouses and power tools.
Yes! We definitely need our little craftsmen
To carry on the skills. Great job!
Good job!
