Another 16mm film from my archive - this one very pink indeed - but also very much a time capsule of a time when any high school had a really nice wood shop. Here we get some good data about the basic hand tools, and some demonstrations. Don't just set that plane down!!! Just kidding. As always I transferred this film with my own Telecine and color corrected the everlovin bejezzus out of it. Enjoy!

The most commonly used tool these the days is the Voice Wedge… Used to divide people into political factions. The skilled user can divide countries and create chaos and political change.
And I now learn I've been using an auger bit wrong my whole life! 😅 Thanks Fran!
That was so pleasing to watch – thank you Fran x
Nice, one of my favourite subjects
This was really well shot.
Wow, that was another goodie Fran…..thanks again.
Very few shop classes any more. I wish I could have taken them in school 45 years ago, but my school didn't have them. Kids these days don't want to learn manual trades. They all want to play professional sports or be video game designers.
I love these films. Thank you for posting them
We made a periscope out of wood in school. Everybody had to buy their own two mirrors.
Hello again Fran…..
You know the difference between a carpenter and a woodworker?
A quarter inch.
As a woodworker, this is very interesting. Thanks for the video.
I purchased my first saw set a couple of years ago so that I could sharpen and reset saw blades. The slotted screws were very common in the time this was filmed. I am not fond of slotted screws, but for some pieces they look correct.
So many school wood and metal shops have disappeared over the years which is sad.
