Just was made aware of this new forum. Here's a short checkering video we just made:

ZekeShikarHowdy MNR, ....and anyone my chime in please.
Thanks for the awesome video!
I like the videos you've posted.
I have a question for you sir.
The video shows the checkerer is right handed, yet I see him working left to right, while spacing, rather than right to left, which I've always done. Is this because he's simply BETTER and more skilled (which he certainly is) or have I been working backwards and/or just need to be ambidextrous in my direction?
I hope that question make sense sir,
Zeke

Jim KobeHe must be a young guy, no glasses or magnifier

With that spacing tool, direction does not matter. However, with an MMC, the spacing can only go in one direction unless it is a LH/RH instrument, usually right to left.

Thanks Jim for the reply!
I saw that he didn't have glasses or a magnifier and was angry-jealous. haha
My power tool it dedicated right to left which works out well since I'm right handed but my hand cutters will space right or left depending on what tool I use. Moving left to right is more difficult for me and my vision on the "cut" side is impaired.
I'm just a slow hack at it anyways compared to most.
Thanks,
Zeke

Uh, yessir, I'd say he's talented!
I've sure enjoyed the videos he's posted and/or on his site.
Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for posting the new video Jim. I had meant to post it here earlier.
Zeke: I missed your earlier post. It looks like Mr. Kobe answered your question regarding the multi-directional use of the cutter. Thank you very much for the compliments. I'm glad you've enjoyed the videos.
