I came across this video today and thought that some of you might have some interest. No Shopsmiths used but a great shop with an outstanding set of tools and a women who really knows how to use them. Not a typical combination. Oh, and the whisky cabinet is pretty nice too. Have a look.

Yeah, Anne is pretty impressive. Her website is below with a little more info. She recently sold the shops (woodworking and blacksmith forging), and farm, in Seattle and just moved to Tennessee. A new shop will have to be built and it will be interesting to see what choices she makes in building it and what tools she fills it with...

Yes I enjoy Anne's videos. Since commercial TV is getting worst and worst i find I watch YouTube more and more.

So, my sexist initial reaction seeing this attractive and personable woman on Youtube is that she was simply a stand-in for whoever it was behind the scenes doing the real woodworking.
But, watching her, especially with hand tools, I came to realize that she's the real deal. I'm glad I was wrong.

I wonder how often Anne of All Trades gets confused with Ana White? Anne's builds are far superior to Ana's, and I like her video productions better as well. But I have a hunch that my wife, to pick one example of a female non-woodworker, would prefer Ana White's videos. Ana obviously isn't a "fine woodworker" (ok, her stuff can actually make Ikea stuff look pretty good), but she does have a focus on solving practical household problems.

BTW sehast, I sent you a PM a few days ago, and it doesn't look like you've opened it yet.
Make sure you check out Ana White's pocket hole video...you can't be a
respectable woodworking YouTube influencer without a pocket hole video guide
