Old tool and die maker here... This video made my heart beat faster. This guy is a real old world craftsman, no CNC tools for him. Watch and learn as he demonstrates the proper usage of the hand file. This video is GOLD.

I love that clickspring channel! You should watch every video he has, they are all great. Not only is he very talented at his craft, he puts together quality videos too. I really enjoyed his video where he made his own files from mild steel. He case hardened the steel himself; he even made the leather charcoal to provide the carbon himself.

Very nice!

It’s also a tribute to good layout work.

That's quite impressive indeed. I can't imagine ever developing skills like that.

He also has another mad old school skill:

Video editing and post production! What a gorgeously made instructional video.
