    This is why KZread is such a good medium. A tv show would have set this to music, added some sob story and milked it and showed very little of the actual build. I have watched countless hours of your videos and even though I'm never going to build my own bandsaw I now understand a little more about my own, cheap, shop bought model. Keep it going exactly as you have with ever ambitious projects and detailed explanations please.

    I truly stand behind the bloopers (drill chuck unmount) but what really got me is the proper grimace when eyeballing the saw slide gap when making the top wheel slide 👍👍👍You can really tell the Master one from another if the eyeballing grimace is right or just weak 😂

    For carriage bolts in such a crucial device, I will often use a piece of copper pipe slightly larger than diameter of bolt, but smaller than square carriage head to provide a fitting for the bolt. I'll heat the end of the pipe up with a torch, then seat the bolt into the pipe and and give it some taps with a hammer until the copper conforms to the shape of the square carriage head. Then, I'll saw off this end and embed it in the wood to provide a more reliable metal fitting. I'm always concerned about carriage bolts wearing down wood and potentially coming loose- unlikely with strong and dense hardwood, but sometimes its easy to get hung up on that one little thing... Cheers Matthias, love your videos as always.

    Kate's comment is valid, I don't watch TV mostly because of my life timing but also because of the constant flow of terrible ads. There's no point in dragging a video out watching a process that there's really no gain in watching. Speeding a segment up keeps the viewer engaged and helps to not miss anything important, otherwise you might fast forward and miss something that the subject of the video said.

    Wooda Wambam I have seen people do some crazy things with simple tools, and a bandsaw is hardly a necessary tool if someone wants to take his first steps. And I think if someone is not feeling comfortable using a tool, there are ways around that. So, obviously, I disagree with you.
