My Story
I was born in Vancouver British Columbia and my dad was a piano technician so we spent many hours in the workshop with pianos and woodworking. When I was 5 years old I would go in the shop and build things.
I still work on pianos and when I come home I like to work in my shop. I like inventing redesigning things and making woodworking projects and sharing them on Youtube.
I am always thinking and like new ideas and want to create, so hopefully I can teach and inspire you how to make things.
Helping you build things
Best of luck with your woodworking and innovations, and feel free to leave a comment if you have any questions.

ReplyDeleteJack, I came across your Youtube videos and I really enjoy watching, not only the process of creating but i can see you really enjoy what you are doing. I have been thinking about how to construct a Marking Gauge and I have a couple of ideas on how to make it. Have you ever considered making one ?

ReplyDeleteJack- I really enjoy your simple no-nonsense practical youtube style and I always enjoy your videos. I would like to think I am a skilled woodworker like you but I just dont have the video making skills to go up on youtube. Keep it up! Woodchuckchuck in Wisconsin
