First of all, I love the movie. I have made on of your kits and it is a beautiful pen.
We all have methods that we use that work for us but may not be what others recommend. I will not tell anyone that they cannot use a given process, but I might recomend a better or safer method. But when we produce a video to show to the public we should always use the proper technique for safety reasons so that we do not suggest to inexperienced watchers that they can do it the same way. I can remember watching a video of Sam Maloof bandsaw parts for his chairs freehand. He said do not do it this way because it is dangerious and you might slip and cut your hand as I have done. Even though Sam used the bandsaw every day he still got cut. He knew the dangers that came from using his method, even thought he was an expert. Many viewers are inexperienced and do not know the safe way to proceed with a process but because there is a professional video showing cutting blanks with a table saw and not using a jig, I can do it to. None of us would want another to follow our methods and be injured, so we must use safe methods of demonstrating a process.
This is not a big criticism, just a suggestion that we should show safe practices when we demo.
Thanks.
