Incredible. I watch this and listen to Seth and I suddenly have Faith in God and have an appreciation for Her creation of the human race. The film too is equal to the subject. To misquote Ratty: nothing is worth doing more than just messing about with our creations.

Jack,
As they say down here in Australia “Onya Cobber” which translates to “Good on you my friend”. You have inspired me to get up into my garage and start getting into the woodwork I’ve been procrastinating about for years…
You are an artist…keep on building your works of art!
Larry Cheek says:
I love the video production and Jack’s wonderfully articulated ideas about craft and handwork. But his aesthetic and mechanical sense is … mystifying. The end product of all his thought and work looks like hell, doesn’t run very well, and is spoiling for a crash.
Brian Leger says:
I love the spirit expressed by Jack ….. what it means to build with your own hands!
Matthew Johnson says:

Chris Powell says:
Loved the vid Maynard-Classic motorcycle restoration is my passion,but inclined to stick with Honda due to the care and very special engineering that they put into their motorcycles.
