My Growth Rings with Scott Markwood

SHOP NOTES: In order to get the most out of our Shopsmith Mark Vs and other shop tools, it's wise to give them an occasional polish with good furniture-grade paste wax. But what is the best way to apply it? In this video we'll run through the most common things I wax on my Mark V and I'll offer a few tips that I learned while I was the Academy instructor at the Shopsmith Factory Showroom in Dayton, Ohio.

I've created an Amazon list of many of the tools that I have found to be indispensable in my shop. http://a.co/0GLhuR2 You may have to click the "Filter" link to show the items in the list. I suggest sorting them by priority.
