    Japanese saw giveaway, remember, no locals! This one is for everyone else, worldwide shipping included www.blacktailstudio.com/giveaway and people, PLEASE look at the name of who contacts you. If it doesn't say "blacktail studio" it isn't me. Anything will "telegram" or some number is a scam. I probably will not do another one of these because people think I am the one scamming them, please help other people in the comments who don't read this or are leaving me angry comments because they think its me. This is a real giveaway, but you need to visit the link above, not some telagram or whatsapp number.

    A bit like Boosted GT from Street Outlaws and bald McConaughey at some angles. Love your work to say the least, even this new one! The time and attention to all the arduous details most wouldn't think twice about skipping out on, is so great to see! Do you have a video about the cost of just wood and epoxy?? Or a ballpark figure if I wanted to make a 2'x4' coffee table top? Thanks for sharing.

    This video is the first mention of dry ice blasting that I have heard of in over a decade. I honestly was kind of starting to think I might have dreamt it. a LONG time ago I watched something on the History channel about restoring really old book; they used dry ice blasting. They said that the tiny dry ice shards would sublimate on impact, breaking away dirt and grime without having enough energy to hurt the old paper and leather.

    P.S: One suggestion I can give (as I'm filmmaker by trade) is to begin color grading your videos and using high CRI light sources in your shop. That will most definitely give your audience and your clients a better idea of the natural materials that you are working with. I suggest doing the filming in the whatever LOG format your camera is capable of and using a "color space transform" and have a white balance checked while you're at it. Your footage looks good otherwise though!

    Really worthwhile project. I found restoration videos improve my mood and encourage me to keep improving and extending my output. This saw was the solution to the problem of cutting truly straight and parallel boards for drawer sides of those exquisite cabinets the Japanese are so good at. The extreme depth of the blade prevents wandering producers very little waste sawdust (unlike the chain saw🤭) which is a consideration of you are cutting rare and expensive timber.

    If you're a maker, you're a maker. You make furniture. You make jigs. You make ... old tools look new again. Well, in this case, maybe not "new", but restored. Being a maker is about learning, and taking risks. Keep doing what you are doing. One can learn more about your attention to detail than they ever could from your technique. Edit: What a gnarly looking saw ... makes you really respect what the craftsmen in the days of yore had to go through, doesn't it?

    No wonder the Japanese guy didn't want to sell the saw. It probably had sentimental value to it, and some white guy comes in and buys it just to get views on youtube to "restore" it, then give it away to someone that will probably hang it on the wall for a year or two, and then chuck it in the garbage when they get tired of looking at it. Japanese guy is no fool! He knew...

    Very nice, sympathetic restoration. The vice that you made to sharpen the saw was great, as long as it was well supported and didn't let the teeth 'chatter' during filing then it did its job. I agree with your decision about the handle. The blued finish is interesting, the blued finish is a controlled oxidation layer but it has a certain porosity which holds oil really well, reducing the likelihood of rust on that surface. Nice all round.

    Yul Brunner, Telly Savalas (I have 2 & can't decide lol) that was an excellent video. You would have undoubtedly found it much easier if you had propped up the workpiece and sawn in a downwards direction with your feet on the ground. Bending over like you did, sawing upwards, is back-breaking! Also, you were cutting INTO the end-grain i.e. against the grain, which snags the teeth. Try it with the piece up high, horizontal, with the end facing you, and cut with the grain for starters. So on long cuts you end up underneath the timber. You need high trestles because you're cutting overhead, so that's a disadvantage, yes I once had to cut the ends off rafters on a shallow roof, not directly along the grain of course but at a very acute angle, standing on a platform, with the blade horizontal I cleaned & sharpened my grandfather's old hand-ripsaw (which had not seen use for 50 years because of modern tools). This was before YT so I became "expert" from an old carpentry textbook (old-school!) I was afraid I'd stuff up the job with a savage heavy circular saw, because of the complete awkwardness of the situation & lack of control, fighting against gravity, difficulty in seeing my marked line, etc, you know what circular saws are like lol imagine with sawdust flying everywhere spitting into your face; the cut was at shoulder level, blade horizontal as I said. Anyway, I was absolutely amazed! It was so easy! Ripsaws are broad & long (it was a standard saw, cutting on the push-stroke) but it was controllable, I had no trouble following the line, it cut like blazes and did a perfect job on 20 cuts of about 18 inches length. Supreme tool for the task, very much superior to a modern power tool for the craftsman-like finish that I hold myself to, even for "rough" carpentry. I could no doubt have bought a lighter power saw with a vacuum dust extractor or something but I'm still delighted, 20 years later, that I did it that way. It was a joy. Haha the things that give us find memories. I don't think that you gave that ancient saw a genuine try, and man, I hope that you find yourself in a tough situation where you think laterally, take it down off the wall and let it gloriously shine, doing the job in a way that only it can. Beautiful restoration though! I sincerely hope it comes in useful, even if it's only once, and you can treasure it for that, as I do for my Pop"s saw. It gave me that fantastic based feeling that you get, wood-working by hand.
