  1. Thanks P and J,

    Some fun ideas for kids and very timely. Some of us are going to have to do some heavy imbibing over the holidays to get that relaxed muscle in shape though. Attendance at the pub required.

  2. I have just recently found Paul Sellers and Woodworking Masterclasses. What a treat to watch and then go right to the garage to practice the skills. I have already learned so much. I even was able to get an old restored plane to work, which I have spent hours trying my best. I saw Paul manipulating his plane & it triggered an idea in me to try with the old Stanley #5, and it worked. Well, my Christmas came early. Thanks, Paul and the team. I am having so much fun and I can work in my garage with minimal mess and cleaner air.

  3. Thanks @joseph!

    This post, as well as the corresponding blog post has inspired me to get a beginner toolset for my daughter (she is 5). I want the gift to be from Santa, so the tools I’ve picked up all look new but don’t have any prominent commercial markings on them.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for a toolbox I could build ASAP? I was thinking of building the Tool Tote from the masterclasses about a year ago. I could scale it to her size, but I’m definitely open to other suggestions.

  4. Thanks Paul and crew for yet another wonderful video that looks like a lot of fun with Kids. Some very neat ideas and looking forward to working with my Grandkids on these.

    Thanks again and Merry Christmas to you and your Family.

  5. I just subscribed to the master classes and find them really helpful. Love the projects in the Christmas video, especially the spoon carving and the cutting board. Anyways, just saying Hello and Happy Holidays, everybody!

  6. I have been a subscriber since the coffee table build, I have learned so much and I am hoping to gain a proper work space in the next couple of months as we are relocating for work and it is on the list for the new place. I have managed to build the dovetail box without a vice in my backyard, and I was very sad I would not be able to build any gifts for Christmas. All my tools are stored in my parent’s basement as my house is currently being staged to sell. But this video changed that, I spent 3 hours and made two spatulas. One for my wife and one for my mother. I used olive oil for the finish it dried nicely and no smell.
    Thank you so much and Merry Christmas.

  7. Thank you for thinking of the little ones (and not so little) that could really use the guidance on simple projects with basic and essential woodworking tools. This is really helpful as my 9 year old is excited about building projects in wood and I’d like to teach him as much as I can.

    Thank you and Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year to you and everyone!
