In my best John Cleese accent: "Bloody hell". At 98?

I can see the rough cuts when I zoom in, but the man's ninety-freakin-eight. I couldn't have done that at any point in my life. That's some serious patience.

I'm sure when he was younger it would've been flawless, but it's incredible as is.

He started woodworking as a hobby when he retired.
