Thank you Ian. Very appreciated. Glad you are enjoying watching the videos.
Really sweet feeder. One thought, with the snow blowing, one can add some clear plastic like from a water bottle, around the middle part to keep some stashed and dry feed. With openings at the bottom of it to let it spill out and for when refilling.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video.
This is amazing. Very posh. 😂❤❤
Thanks John. Already out for the birds in the garden.
grats on 4k subs. I subscribed when you was fairly new to you tube and have watched 90% of your vids and you have taught me so much. I bought some carbides and struggled on how to use them Nobody I watched on using carbnides gave the same info you did. I also learnt a lot on using trad tools as well and my turning has improved so much with both types of chisels that I am a lot more comfortable in the work that I do. Still got a long way to go to get really good but am getting there slowly..... Thanks again guys and here's to the next 4k subscribers 👍👍👍👍
3k at the mo. Looking to get to 4k. So glad we have been able to help you in your turning. That's what the channel is about, having a little fun along the way. Thanks for all your support and comments along our journey. We really appreciate them. Toodle pip for now. Glenn & Liza
Just subscribed, great content

Glen and Lisa, I watch your videos regularly and enjoy them and the knowledge that you share. Thank you for sharing. I have a question on a subject that I haven’t heard you say much about. How in the world do you manage to keep your shop so clean? My lathe is out in a small part of my garage. I don’t have a turning project to work on but maybe once a week or so if I’m lucky and I manage get shavings and sawdust all over my garage. I actually do clean up every time after I turn off the lathe for the day, even if the project is not finished yet. I have a battery powered leaf blower and a dust collector that I use during sanding and to clean up the shop with and I still find wood chips and dust everywhere. You appear to have quite a clean shop. And you seem to be turning something almost every day. I understand that the floor has to get messy but your tool holders and shelves are all quite clean. I was just wondering what you guys do to keep your shop looking nice and clean? I’m currently watching the bird feeder video and I have some logs that would be perfect for making a feeder like that. So I look forward to seeing you finish it.
Hi Herb. Thanks for your support in watching our videos. I just vacuum it off every time I've finished for the day. How did you find the bird feeder? I was very pleased with it. It's now hanging in the garden with nuts in it waiting for the birds to take them.
Herb I use this to clean up Does a really good job of both clearing shavings in hard to reach places and into spaces you can not see 😁🤣😁
Hi Glen, Thanks for the reply. I do vacuuming every time after I’m finished for the day, guess I’ll just have to do a better job. The bird feeder turned out great, really enjoyed watching you make it. Great tip on oiling the wood as you go to help prevent cracking too. I have a lot more green wood than I have dry wood so I’m going to try that with some of my other projects.
@@HerbD-fg8dy Yes, me too. Loads of wet wood, after they cut down the Weeping Ash down the road. Let us know how you get on.
Hello I have recently found your channel and are enjoying it very much. One thing I noticed is that you always make a point of fully closing any chuck before removing it. Is there a reason for this or are you just being tidy. Thanks for your time.
I do have a bit of an OCD problem but I need to fully close the chucks so they hang on the hooks I made for them.
Great job, what was the oil you were sanding with?
Thank you Gordon. Chestnut Finishing Oil.
Hello Glenn and Lisa. Really enjoy your videos. Can you tell me what brand of headgear/ face shield you use?
Hi Michael. Glad you are enjoying the videos. We did a video on this already. Check out the link: th-cam.com/video/HRskMIZEj4E/w-d-xo.html
Beautiful piece! May have to give one a try. What are you brushing on before sanding?
Thanks Mike. Yes, give it a go. Let us know how you get on. Chestnut finishing oil, but any oil will be fine.
What make of sharpening jig do you use Glen
Hi Alan, depends on what gouge. Check out these videos on how I sharpen them. th-cam.com/video/D3c3jd7wyZ4/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/vYCO3VfHmpo/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/fyX0tlvQy90/w-d-xo.html
