well said john, what i like about these classes and forum is that from the beginning is how simple Paul make it work for the little guy on a very thigh budget i was always under the assumption that to become a half decent joiner one need all the latest high tech-equipment and machines or even top of the range hand tools that cost a mint,till i saw on you tube what i thought at first was a madman making a workbench in his backyard out of softwood and making comments that you can do 90% of all you planing with an old Stanley no.4 for £20 and coping 4 inch mortises with a $3 chisel is what attracted me and boy am i proud of my pine bench today. these classes are costing me less than €3 a week,i spend more on milk in a day. still trying to accumulate the minimalist tools but getting there. i am also very grateful to Paul and his team for this journey.
