Thanks Andy, a great project to get me back to my lathe. My back is finally in shape to allow me to stand at my lathe for more than five minutes. So many options too for different style hats etc. 👒

Hi Bob... Thank you so much... that was very kind of you to support me and my channel... I'm sorry to hear that you suffer from back trouble... I know from personal experience how painful it can be... I'm always happy to hear that someone is going to have a go at making one of my projects... He would look really good with a top hat... I hope that you will enjoy making your own version... I'm guessing from your name that you are Cornish.. also a previous comment of " my ansome" if I remember correctly... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Dennis... Thank you so much for your kind words... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
If I had to criticize anything about this it would be choice of glue. Super Glue is a poor choice when gluing wood together if you want a permanent bond. It will break down and dry out over time and let go. Use a quality wood glue or epoxy for a lifetime bond for wood projects.

Hi Trent... Please don't feel that you have to criticise anything.. adoration is quite acceptable... Haha.. just kidding.. I only used the ca glue for convenience.. in future I will mention this and recommend wood glue... Having said that.. don't underestimate ca glue... I fitted my kitchen 20 years ago and used ca on the cornices and pelmets... when I fitted a new kitchen and ripped out the old one last year the wood broke before the joint gave way... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy

Hi Paul... Thank you very much... Yes... just make sure that it is sharp... treat it like a scraper... I tend to hold it horizontal to the wood.. The beauty of the mortice chisel is that they are made very strong... Keep the toolrest close to the wood because you havn't got much length in the chisel... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
