Why do I hold it in such esteem?
1. Mike Siemsen is clearly
an expert with lots of experience, both on the topic he's discussing, and as a teacher.
2. The techniques involve minimal equipment. No expensive vises, no new products to buy except maybe a holdfast or two - - which I promise you'll never regret buying.
3. This is a set of techniques that are fundamental to working wood with hand tools. HOW fundamental? Workholding is right alongside sharpening. Understanding and practicing these techniques will make all your work easier. As with sharpening, mindful practice will lead to improvement, and improvement means easier work.
