Eoin Reardon (better known to some as pintofplane) is a traditional Irish woodwork and tool restorer. His unique and charming woodworking tutorials have garnered a global following of over three million followers on TikTok, and 450k subscribers on YouTube.
Over lockdown, Eoin filled his days by building a traditional Irish sea-going vessel known as a currach in his parents’ garden. Thus began his life’s passion: traditional carpentry. Over the last two years, he has made it his mission to learn and share as much as possible about the craft of traditional woodworking – whether it’s using a pole lathe, making a maul using only hand tools, or upcycling sugan chairs.
He currently works from his shed in Cork, dedicated to creating entertaining videos for those intrigued by the tools, techniques and skills of their ancestors.
