Jeepers, did you see the power planer one?

He's bevelling the edge of a 2x4 with NO SUPPORT !!

OMG!!

About half way through he says something like "and to make it a bit more dramatic........." and proceeds to increase the depth of cut. Well frankly by that point I'd had quite enough drama and had to look away.

Oh, and yes I too think he'd had a skinfull prior to filming.

In the words of Delboy, "What a plonker!"

Be fair chaps, he's got 20 yrs experience behind him. I'm just not sure at what? :?

That was painful watching, I'm sure it won't be long before this guy has serious accident. How can he call himself a master carpenter :?

Lets all club together and buy him a Spindle Moulder for his birthday.

I wonder if proper instruction videos would have gotten him (and his advertisers) as much hits on the pages at all :roll: :roll:

In the advertizing world there's only one kind of publicity :wink:

I know what happened... He's really one of those TV "designers" standing in for the bloke in the tight T-Shirt.

I had to stop watching after the second video, the swaying, along with his lunacy, were making my eyes hurt!
