Somehow I'm finding your content therapeutic. I'm drawn to classic men's style and although I've no real desire to become a tailor as a late-in-life career change, I'm appreciating the detail you freely share here. Thank you. Tony

It's always enjoyable to watch a skilled professional doing something creative, especially when they enjoy what they do.

What an extremely kind thing to say. You're very welcome and thank you. Best, Tom.

I could watch you do this all day. Fascinating

All I can say is classic. It feels Great watching professional do what they love, the video was really helpful. Thanks you for this

Thank you. I found/have a ready made pattern almost perfect in every way except it's not db. I was "afraid" how to modify. Now I have more confidence. 🤺💐

Looking forward to seeing the follow up on this

Great video !!

Wonderful video Mr Mahon, I noticed something rather unique in this video which was the underarm dart/fishcut you used was fairly straight or parallel with the front dart. Many tailors I see and from the books I've consulted they tend to have that cut running at an angle. Is there a particular reason behind the way you do it? Looks very reminiscent of the classic Schulte (apologies if that's a misspelling) cut if I'm not mistaken?

Well spotted...Unusual indeed but the way we do it. Best, Tom.

That buzzing is the strip light in the room

I would love to to know the reasoning behind the changes you made eg the shoulder and the armscye….

Thank-you for this interesting video. Do you perhaps know the origin of the 'rock of eye' method? Also, what do you mean when you refer to 'balance'?

Dear Melissa, Redmayne has a new website coming in a few weeks. The history page explains the background to rock of eye. The balance of a garment is quite a subject. I'll try to sort a video one day. Thanks for watching. Best, Tom.

@@savilerowtales Ok, thank you. I will check it out! Yes, a video on the issue of 'balance' would be fantastic!

As an engineer from Yorkshire, I knew this as 'rack of eye,' and I understand that rock of eye is just a derivation of this term. I found this on the Viking.no web page 'List of Yorkshire words with Old Norse origin:' Rack means judgement by eye of accuracy, alignment, length, etc. (rather than by the use of a ruler or other instrument). Usually heard only in the dialect expression "..bi t'rack o' t'ee" ("..by the rack of the eye"). cf Swedish rak (straight) and Norwegian rak (direct, straight, erect). It would typically be used in the phrase, to produce something by rack of eye and rule of thumb.

I always knew as ‘rack of eye’ as well and I’m in Yorkshire

Hi, general question on styling and tailoring: I inherited a wool single breasted long overcoat. It is a size 48 and I am closer to a 44 (46 is a little big 44 a little tight). I would like to keep the 48, is it possible to simply overlap the single breasted coat and add buttons and button holes to make it a double breasted ? Or would this be a faux paus because the shape and style of a doble breasted over coat is not the same as overlapping a single brested coat ? Thanks for any feedback.

Nice idea but it wouldn't really work :( Better trying to alter it as an SB. Thanks for watching. Best, Tom.

Great video, good quality video. The camera personnel should ensure to capture on screen more angles during the videoing.
