Greyhawk Perkins gave a lesson on woodworking.

He made a spatula out of cedar.


The bench is an antique.

It is an original from 1890 in a small town near Brownsville Texas, but you can make your own with the plans that they had available for a Swiss Bench (I have printed them below)

He is applying oil to the finished piece.

this seems like a good site to find tools similar to Greyhawks tools. the razor saw is hard to find, but the log and timber saw on the site seems like it would work as a substitute. All of the others are there, even the Fro!
