Exclusive Video: WBS#2 Ron Hock
Added 2021-08-26 22:30:11 +0000 UTCFriends:
The second Work Bench Session just wrapped up an hour ago and we had a GREAT time with Ron Hock, the brains behind Hock Tools. Ron was so gracious with both his time and knowledge. I think everyone learned a lot....well, I learned a lot. There's also a lot more for me to learn.
This video is only available to Patrons at the Partner and Leader levels. Thanks for making it possible.
Hope everyone is having a good end to the week!

2021-09-29 10:23:37 +0000 UTCWoah, this was a great interview with great background info on metallurgy! I always struggled with all these different A1, O2, PMV11, they were just random abbreviations for me, but now it makes much more sense! Thank you for doing this series! And also thank you to Ron hock for being there AND donating his speaker fee! :-) And I think you could improve the audio quality a bit by using headphones. Zoom tries to do echo cancellation, so that the audio of the other people that is played on your side does not go into your microphone again. This leads to some dropouts in your audio when two people speak at the same time. By using headphones, there is no chance that your audio playback gets into your microphone again, so there is no need for Zoom to do echo cancellation an decrease audio volume on your side.

2021-09-05 13:58:50 +0000 UTCThanks I get camera shy lll Metallergy is quite interesting I was wondering what a little cobalt would be like in a plane iron or possibly chisels.

2021-08-28 12:38:28 +0000 UTCIt was pure luck I watched it. I'd forgotten all about it and noticed the mail six minutes before it started!

2021-08-28 11:00:36 +0000 UTCNice guess Peter, but I am down as "Partner". However Rex's suggestion has worked so I am relieved. No problems - I know technology well - too well sometimes!
David Coxon
2021-08-28 02:09:10 +0000 UTCWow, and actual metallurgist. I think YOU should have been doing the interview!
Rex Krueger
2021-08-28 00:24:19 +0000 UTCI'm so glad you're getting value from the series!

2021-08-28 00:23:35 +0000 UTCThis one has a bug I cannot track down. Just click-through to youtube and you can watch it with no trouble. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Rex Krueger
2021-08-28 00:22:47 +0000 UTCOne other thing: I got the same error message as you, but then I opened the video in YouTube, and it worked! Make sure you’re logged into Patreon. I also believe the two different videos are: 1. There was a live stream on YT for “Leader” ($7) level patrons 2. There was a completed YT video for “Partner” and “Leader” patrons that can be watched after the live stream ended.

2021-08-27 23:26:06 +0000 UTCDavid, double check that you’re either in the “Partner” or “Leader” tier. I could be wrong here, but I think some people stayed in the $2.50 tier, but then just upped their contribution amount, which may be the issue. Again, I’m guessing, but I think this is like ordering a plain hamburger, but giving the restaurant the cost of the deluxe cheeseburger—you still get the plain hamburger, but you just gave them more for it. IF I’m right (and that’s a big IF), then I think you can simply switch your tier to the labeled “Partner” tier. I originally changed the amount I was paying to $7, but my tier was still the same as the $2.50 label (“Supporter” I think). The good news is that I switched my tier in Patreon to “Leader” and I was not charged any extra to do so. Same cost, different tier. If you aren’t a “Partner” or a “Leader” try switching your tier to the appropriate same cost point, and then see if you can access the video.

2021-08-27 23:19:21 +0000 UTCWhat is the story with this video? Is it available to the $5 tier on only the $7 tier? As a $5 Patreon I can see this one, and see that there is another one for the $7 level. Fair enough, but when I try to play this it comes up with a message "video unavailable. Playback on other websites has been disabled by the video owner. Watch on YouTube", but of course it is not on YouTube. Mixed messages here.

2021-08-27 22:40:54 +0000 UTCRex-This was excellent. As a machinist turned priest, turned woodworking priest, this was a fascinating topic for me, as I’m sure it was for all of us. I appreciated the questions and depth of detail that was presented here, as well as the questions by my fellow Patrons, particularly the last one from Nathan. Sharpening and maintaining the edge of our tools is truly at the core to getting anywhere with our craft. And, the lesser quality tools we may start off with at least affords is what Ron said: practice sharpening!! I feel like I’ve definitely gotten better at this since I started year ago. Your videos on this topic have helped with this. Thanks for this series. It was well worth increasing my patron level contribution!

Rex Krueger
2021-08-27 12:36:26 +0000 UTCGreat discussion thank you Rex I found it particularly interesting as I’m a metallurgist at a foundry, and just getting started on the my woodwork journey.

2021-08-27 11:58:40 +0000 UTCGreat, great session! Extremely nerdy 😀 And I like that the last couple of seconds when Bob forgot to cut the feed are edited out 😄

2021-08-27 10:00:47 +0000 UTCRex, the discussion was absolutely fantastic! I really appreciate your time and energy in making these Workbench Sessions a reality—and a resounding success!
