"8 to 12 strokes and I'm done" Me too buddy, me too 😢

That little bit when u said "listen, they sound the same." The importance of listening to your tools I don't think is said enough. Great vid

There was a guy, maybe 30 years ago, who wrote for American Woodworker. Can't remember his name. He had a unique sense of humor.... How do I know when my table saw blade is dull? If you are setting off the smoke alarms, that is a pretty good indicator!

I have been woodworking and hence sharpening for years; have found the water stones work best for me.

Guess what tomorrow is? It’s sharpening day! I purchased stones a few months ago, but they’re still in the bags that I brought them home in but watching this just gave me the confidence to go into my shop and get it done. Thank you!
