I found this site https://paulsellers.com/
He shows how to use hand tools for woodworking.
Has several videos on how the sharpen handsaws, chisels and bench planes.
They are some good videos to watch, good documentation how to sharpen tools.
He also show how the make a work bench using just hand tools ( 11 videos making it).
Looks like a lot of hand work.
I have watch several of his videos and got a lot of ideas and things my grandfather taught me years ago.

Re: Paul Sellers woodworking
I think he is great also.
I built a workbench from his plans a couple of years ago. I learned a lot about using hand tools building it and it is a great bench.
I documented the build in this thread. Woodwork bench build

Re: Paul Sellers woodworking
I can attest to the design of the bench. I have made one myself.

Re: Paul Sellers woodworking
I have been following Paul Sellers for quite a while. I met him at a wood show once and he is a real gentleman. He was using the bench he had made like the one in the video. The man is a true master in the old, hand tool style of woodworking. I enjoy watching him work and he is one of the best at teaching his methods of using hand tools. Search for his videos on YouTube if you want to be thoroughly entertained and you may just learn a few things in the mean while. I have subscribed to his site on Youtube so I get an e-mail when he puts out a new video.
