So nice to sit inside on a hot muggy Midwestern day and just take in all these wonderful videos! Beer in hand if the time is right………. Gee, it’s 5:09 pm.🍺
Thanks guys!
Martin Lunde says:
Great video. Keep for viewing by future generations. This gentleman is a real craftsman and his technique, insights and thoughts must not be lost.
Robert Patterson says:
Can you comment on “hide-a-butts” rather than butt blocks? Butt blocks seem to be the source of leaks down the road, but I’d value your opinion? And I’ve only seen/used “hide-a-butts” in repairs/rebuilds.
Peter Buxton says:
By hide a butts I’m assuming you mean scarfed and epoxied?
What we’re doing here is trying to keep as traditional as possible.
Thank you.
