      @@RM3MB3R The term I'm using is 'complimentary angle' which is a geometry term meaning the two angles add up to 90 degrees. It's a frequently used principal in woodworking because angle settings on power tools often involve applying it. When I want to cut the 52.75 degree angle on the edge of the crown pieces I read the complimentary angle of 37.25 degrees on the blade angle setting on the tablesaw. Knowing the complimentary angle value is necessary because the blade tilts from vertical/90 degrees and NOT from horizontal/ 0 degrees (parallel to the saw table) which is actually the 52.75 degree cut I need to make. It's similar on a miter saw because the cut reads zero degrees when it's actually already 90 degrees from the fence. Hope that helps you to understand this even though it might be confusing at first.

    Das Machinen ist not fur Gefingerpoken und Mittengrabben!
    My grandfather, rest his soul, came from Austria before WW2. He spoke German in the home growing up in Wisconsin; he later fought for the US in that war- D-Day, Bulge, camp liberations- and when I showed him a slightly different version of that sign many years ago, I thought he was going to laugh himself to death. When I finally figured out that's what you have on your wall (Achtenshun!) it brought back many good memories of my childhood, with him investing the time to show me how much satisfaction can be had making things from wood with our hands; he was a HUGE DeWalt fan, and I still have (and frequently use) his RAS. Your demeanor and cadence (both vocal and your body mechanics) remind me almost exactly of him. You're a little better at what you do, though--- I remember Grandad shaving off the bottom of a door with a powered hand planer because the new carpet was too thick; from then on that door had an "ocean wave" on it. haha.
    Anyway please understand that comparing you to him is one of the utmost in compliments to me. Thanks for making the videos, I enjoy them.

    You are right about not being deterred by mistakes and frustration. If you want to make it to the "Next Level" of anything, you can't let setbacks deter you from your goals.. When I was a kid, my mother told me I was very patient. I thought everyone was. NOPE. I think it is either in your genes or not. I was an art/photography teacher for 35 years. Not that many people had it. The ones who did well were not necessarily the most artistic, but the ones who were most persistent. Art without craft is junk. Craft alone can make you a living. Art and Craft together can make you famous.

In this type of work, where you are making "custom" furniture, is there a decent profit margin in it for you versus the time taken to manufacture the piece?

    • @NextLevelCarpentry

      @@markforrestsm The frustrating mindset you encounter there is prevalent here too so my biggest job is to find people who know, appreciate and desire something more. Clients who are a 'good fit' occupy a very narrow niche but I've found that once trust is established there's virtually no end of work to do with a very respectable profit margin. It takes nerve to look someone in the eye and tell them that if they can find what they want/need from someone who manufactures it it will ALWAYS be cheaper and they should buy it. When you tap into the right demographic you'll find that they appreciate what a dedicated, trustworthy craftsman can bring to the table (pun intended) and gladly pay what it costs for a custom piece, tailored specifically to them, that's truly one of a kind. I really try to avoid stereotypes because I'm frequently surprised by who is eager to hire me and who won't. Flashy big-shots don't ever hire me because they find they can't get top notch work on the cheap just because they think they're important... it's pretty funny, actually. Some of the most down to earth 'everyday millionaires/ millionaire next door' people, people who know what true value is, will literally wait a full year for the right person to do their project. Flashy people tend to know the cost of everything and the value of nothing and flit from one tradesman to the next and often, ironically, are the ones who get burned the most because they can't see past a flashy sales pitch and get snookered by shysters at an alarming rate. Wow... that got to be quite a response... I'll step down off my soapbox now! Best, Matt

    How do you measure down to a 1/4 degree using “analog” gauges? I checked the Next Level Carpentry Amazon product page and the smallest angle increments on the Starett C435-12-4R Combination Square and General Tools 17 Protractor are 1 degree for each. I checked my General 828 Digital Sliding T-Bevel and it goes down to .05 degrees. Other viewers might find it useful how you accurately measure angles.
    Thanks for the help and thanks for the great videos.

    • @NextLevelCarpentry

      I should have mentioned that, shouldn't I? I do it by relying on the angle setting on my miter saw where I can 'extrapolate' 1/4 of a degree between the 1 degree angle markings. Silly thing is that that 1/4 degree I mentioned a dozen times or more really didn't make a bit of difference in the appearance of the crown and, in hindsight, I wish I would have just gone with an even 37 or 38 to simplify it for all concerned. Truth be told I doubt there's any realistic need to dial in more accurately than 1/2 degree for anything in woodwork but it's reassuring to know you can get down to frog-hairs if need be. Thanks for watching and commenting Brian... hope this helps a little? Best, Matt

    Do you have plans for the bookcase? I’m planning on building one and really like your design. Had my wife watch the video and she said that’s what she had in mind. Thanks for sharing your videos, I have liked them all.

    • @NextLevelCarpentry
      @NextLevelCarpentry  4 года назад

      All I have to offer in the way of 'plans' Mickey are the two videos showing the shelves with hidden hardware and this, about the crown. There are many aspects of a custom design/build project like this that make it so specific to the project that a set of plans for more widespread/universal application just aren't practical IMHO. Hope you're able to gather enough stuff from the videos to work up useable plans for your project... Best, Matt

      That's Delta's Unifence circa 1982... it was a game changer for fences at the time but has since been eclipsed by Biesmeyer style fences with similar accuracy. Biesmeyer has comparable accuracy but believe they're less 'delicate' and less finicky than my 'ol Unifence. I probably wouldn't choose the Unifence today but at the time it was cutting edge... my how things change, right? Best, Matt

    Question for you....I'm almost done building all the components for a large custom home office for a client (that started before all this craziness happened), and I'm wondering what I'm going to do once it's all painted and ready for delivery/install? What you are doing for your clients? Getting everything ready and just waiting for the stay-at-home orders to be lifted (not sure if you even have one where you're at), or proceeding with delivery/install work and just taking extra precautions like wearing a face mask while in their home? Thanks in advance!!!

    • @NextLevelCarpentry

      I'm not the guy to ask.. my main project is not owner occupied at this time. Potential liability issues working with the wrong people in their home would make me chillax until things stabilize. Best excuse there is for cleaning and organizing the shop, equipment maintenance etc, right? Hope you're able to work through it all... Best, Matt

    • @jimcap7677
      @jimcap7677 4 года назад

      Next Level Carpentry - thanks Matt! I still have about two or three days worth of building to do, and then I'll start priming and painting everything. I think having a little extra time for the paint to cure before installation isn't a bad thing either. Unfortunately, this project and all of its components are filling up my shop, and I've even brought a bunch of the cabinets and bookcases into my own dining room and den just so I have space to work in my shop. Once this office project is done I'm planning to shuffle my original schedule up and switch over to some smaller things that I can build exclusively in the shop and just drop-off to my clients, and tackle a few furniture restoration projects I've had waiting on the back-burner. As long as I can stay productive my business should be ok on the other end of our current situation.
      Stay healthy, and thanks again for sharing your incredible skills and knowledge!!!

    With those planer sleds how do you deal with snipe? Are you wasting the ends or is the pass so light you don’t get any?

    • @NextLevelCarpentry
      @NextLevelCarpentry  4 года назад +1

      Dealing with snipe using a planer sled is the same as just using the planer: some snipe is inevitable... just work to minimize it and deal with it. I don't look at it as 'wasting the ends' any more than I think I'm 'wasting an orange' when I toss the peel... it's just part and parcel of a project.

    The WIXI style digital guages are not accurate enough to hit these angles unless you do a lot of fine tuning the set. Something like a Starret protractor which is designed to go on their combination square... the one with the bubble in it, that sort of thing could nail these angles, but not as convenient to use ( no magnets, no buttons, no batteries - man... Old School.....gotta get me one of those!)

    Whilst listening attentively, I do not remember an explanation as to why you found an angle involving a quarter of a degree necessary. The quality of the timber you manage to purchase is outstanding. Not sure we could buy that stuff in the UK. Also find the price and availability of your US tools rather lacking in the UK as well.

    • @NextLevelCarpentry
      @NextLevelCarpentry  4 года назад

      "Fog of War" is the only explanation for that 1/4 degree angle I can think of Peefor. I was matching the angle of my little sample piece and that's what lined up perfectly. In retrospect I should have disregarded it for practicality because there's no way that smidge would make an iota of difference in the appearance of the finished moulding! Best, Matt
