Sharpen Your Chisel Like A PRO With This SIMPLE Woodworking Jig?
Sharpening is the thread running through Woodworking Tools TV right now. The newest tutorial, "Sharpen Your Chisel Like A PRO With This SIMPLE Woodworking Jig?", ends its title with a question mark, as if daring viewers to check. The description promises a custom jig built in the shop and then used to put a razor edge on a chisel, for beginners and old hands alike.
It was the best start of the week's three uploads, passing 10,000 views in three days, and it is drawing more daily viewers than anything else on the channel. The comment section is small but practical: alongside a compliment in Persian, one viewer simply asks for the measurements, which is about the most woodworker request there is.
Right behind it sits an older cousin. "Amazing DIY Sharpening Machine #tooltips," posted 41 days ago, is nearing 300,000 views and still pulls in a steady crowd, with a homemade circular saw short from a month back not far off. A grab bag of woodworking hacks and a folding 3D circle table, only hours old at last look, filled out the week.
Overall the channel ran a little below its usual pace, and its subscriber count held at just over a million. Among similar DIY channels it sat mid-pack for views this week, close to Beginner Life, while BAS Renovations had an unusually big week of its own.
