Years ago, I started out building my furniture projects out of pinewood simply because it's always been the least expensive wood available. And, I always figured that, as I got better at wood working, and had more money to spend, I'd surely switch to using the finer and more expensive woods. But, after many many more years of building furniture, I still use pinewood today. Over the years, as I became more familiar with the characteristics of pinewood, I started to see how easy it is to make my pine furniture look absolutely gorgeous! It's also very easy to work with. But, one of my greatest pleasures is taking a stack of lowly construction lumber and turning it into a stunning piece of furniture for people to enjoy.
a lot of pros say that it's much easier to work with hardwood. I like working with pine,just need to make sure it's dry before you buy it..boy does it like to do yoga or what...
I love pine. Light, strong and easy to cut and the price is right. Although lately even pine has become pricey. It seems that there is always a ton of scrap laying around at the end of driveways. Hard to beat 'free'.
I agree !
I use different woods but pine is one of my favorite. It really has grown on me.
I have want to make a 6 ft pine post but the wood keeps warping. Do you have Any suggestions please? I just want a 6 ft vertical, straight post, used 1x6 and it warped after I jointed and planed the wood. What can I do to prevent this?
You are way better than any shop teacher I ever had. Thank you
Thank you, Colin. Your time and contributions are greatly appreciated. Go well, and stay well.
For a newbie like me, who works primarily with pine, this video helps a lot. Great work 😊👍
That was a great video. I worked with pine before , but this video helped me learn about the best way to get around with joinery. This video will definitely help many who start off with pine wood projects.
I work with white pine 1x4s every day and have literal tons of scrap to build furniture with. Thanks for the info dude! Love your videos
Brilliant Colin! Great content, great editing, great audio, lighting etc.
Thank you!
I just built a toddler bed out of pine BEFORE watching this. I did use some of this information incidentally, but this is good stuf!!!
I always enjoy your stuff, Colin! You are my first stop when a new episode is released.
Good info. I use to think dowels were old school and inferior to pocket holes. I learned somethings from you today. Thank you.
I live in California where pine is readily available so I have made many projects with it. It is easy to work with and makes beautiful and cheap gifts. I really love the natural golden color it takes on with age.
Thanks for this video. I've only worked with pine and these are great tips.
Very informative Colin, as usual. Stay safe.🇬🇧
Like your clear concise way of passing on your skills built up over many years thank you !
no sure about dyes, My personal preference is coloured varnishes that show the grain of the wood !
Always good tips there Colin, Thanks for sharing. Also the variety of subjects keeps your channel very interesting, so thank you. :)
PARABÉNS...., sempre uma verdadeira aula!!! Gosto muito dos seus vídeos. Obrigado!
Abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
Thanks for a great video Colin!
I love woodworking, thank you for shearing such an important ideas.
I learned some important information today. Think I'll reconsider dowels over the pocket holes! Thx
Very informative as always, thank Colin
Really enjoyed this build and the different staining technique. I want to start doing more pine based projects and I think that dowel jig is a great asset to have to secure the pine without using hardware.
Always excellent, Colin. Many, many thanks. 😷👍🇬🇧
Great video. I've learned a lot of new things. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks v much Colin, great video as usual
Thanks for the video, once I use up my stain I'll look at getting some dye etc!
Thanks Colin, really helpful tips there.
Great advice. I follow a similar pre-assembly finish process. I use blue painter’s tape to protect the areas where I want glue. It takes a little time, but I know that I have a surface that will absorb glue. With Osmo it works well.
Great info, thanks Colin!
Only issue I've ever ran into with Pine is, the with Cedar, the sap. I enjoy working with pine, just really need to have patience with it. Great video, cheers :)
Thanks for posting 👍
I'm still working with low cost materials, someday I hope to start making projects with nice hardwoods. These tips will surely help me now, thanks Colin.
Go to an actual hardwood company near you. Buying stuff such as maple, ash, etc. from an actual hardwood company is only like 25% more expensive than buying appearance grade pine from big box stores.
The more you work with pine, you'll see that you can actually build some very stunning furniture pieces with it. And, when it comes to staining, be sure to apply Minwax pre-stain wood conditioner before you apply the stain. It will stop the surface from blotching and it'll look beautiful.
Same here! Making majority of my projects out of pallet wood currently..save the planet and save a buck too!!
Good video as always. Might have to try finishing before sticking stuff together and see how it goes. The dye is interesting as well but I will say I prefer using the conditioner first with stains not only to remove the blotchyness but it also give the base a nice golden tone so the stain looks much more rich and vibrant, wonder if it'll work with a dye as well... I have many new things to test now.
I have that doweling set, made in Canada by nice folks. It's about all I use for joinery. Thanks Colin.
I was looking for a link to find out what kind of dowling jig that was. It seems to work quick and simply.
i should have been watching these videos at the start of the COVID lockdown!
your my favourite youtuber
Warm greetings from India 🙏. Brilliant teaching! We need teachers like you Sir 🙏. Our engineering schools teach rubbish here i.e. just theory from books and very very little practical knowledge.
I'm also a newbie to pinewood so landed here.. I've been using plywood and teak wood since last 8 yrs and now I want to try pinewood as my friend wants me to build a table top using pinewood. I hope to show you my creation in a few weeks 😉.
Colin, you are awesome. Love your style.
Thanks for a good explanation. You have taught me a lot in a short video thanks again.
Awesome video! Thank you!
Good video!
Looking at those growth rings, that pine looks similar to the crappy South African pine.
I have completed a new computer table from pine and now doing a bee hive from pine which will require better treatment for outdoors.
Great video and info. Thank you!
I love this guy.
This video is great for me since i starded woodworking last year and I've been using pine only since its the only wood available where i live, i was a little afraid to used dowels but not anymore, thank you!
Very informative. thank you for this video.
Awesome video thank you!
Great video!
Thanks for the knowledge, Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!
I appreciated this video Colin. I use pine as it is readily available and I am cheap and not very knowledgeable. I have a doweling jig and I find the problem for me is getting the holes in the opposing piece in the correct spot to fit the other piece.
The biggest piece of advice I can give you... you must have a constant. Always use the same "start" point. And that spacer he had in the dowel jig gives you the "reveal" spacing. If you want the pieces to have an offset look that is necessary for your constant in that direction.
Plan out your work, either drawings or in your head. Make sure your pieces are all uniform. Use tape or pencil to mark "sides" "top/bottom" etc. And always use the same reference point or "constant."
I am curious about your dowel jig. It looks to be more accurate than the ones I have seen. I enjoy your videos. You take the time to explain things well.
thank you
Love your energy, man
I make floating tenons and sometimes use biscuits. FWIW the floating tenons are absolutely the best.
I’m building bookcases using pine stair treads, they are 1” thick with one bullnose edge. Got the idea from Tom Silva. I put a Minwax stain on them. They are uneven at first but just wait a day or two and they even out and become beautiful. I’m going to check into the dowel jig.
Sweet idea on the stair treads!!
I use pine when I turn wood on a lathe, it's great to practice with.
I am just amazed the strength of the dowels over the rest, and now i have been taught how to better build my projects. Thank you for sharing ( Stay Safe ) .
I'm a firm believer in dowels. I'm surprised that the pocket holes were even that strong.
@@CeeJayThe13th Bogus test, do the research,
@@OldDunollieman I don't need to do the research. I just meant in that test.
@@OldDunollieman there’s plenty of tests showing pocket holes failing with minimally force compared to dowels and m&t. They are not strong, nor were they ever intended to be a structural joint in solid wood. They work great for cabinet construction and face frames, but they aren’t for furniture.
Thanks
I tried using colored leather dyes on wood and had good success too. I agree that a dye does a better job than stain. The dyes that I've used were water or alcohol based by Fiebing's leather dye.
In the UK we often have no alternative to pine. Our big box stores just don't stock anything else. Only by going to a timber merchant do we usually have any options for nicer, denser woods like oak or cherry or ash, or maple if you're lucky.
thanks
I heard that if you sprinkle a tiny amount of salt on one side of the glue up, it will keep them from slipping and the tiny amount of salt doesn't affect the bond of the glue. The glue is water based and melts the salt working quickly will make it work. Salt is gritty and provides enough resistance to keep the boards from easily slipping. I've also heard glue is only needed on one side of the joint so you could glue one side of all the boards and salt all of the boards at one time, stand them all up, then clamp all at once.
Great video information as always. Also, I really like that metal 5 port dowel jig you have in this video. Would you mind if I asked you where you purchased it?
Hi. I really like your videos and the way you describe how you do some of the things you do. I don't know if I am in the minority but I like watching you do some of the routine things. When you describe them different aspects of the build come out that would be omitted thinking it isn't interesting. I know it would make the video longer but I feel it is more beneficial to the viewer. Keep up the great work, i always look forward to your videos.
Thanks. I never heard of wood hardener before.
Nice to see you build something as opposed to all the tips and tricks videos you do. Good video, I use pine allot, I have woodlot and sawmill and pine are my most mature trees.
I wish your forests grow thick and your blades stay sharp, that’s awesome
I like your glue bottle. Brilliant 😮
Oh WoW! Not the topic of the video, but I like the bar clamp holders you made.
Thanks col
Great video
Thank you.
This is great I did not know about Osmo as an option.
Love your videos. Could you possibly tell me about white oak and what place in density it may be at compared to other woods please. Thank you
Good show!
One factor with finishing before assembly is that you can lose the marks showing which joints go together. This applies more so when refurbishing older furniture which may be less than square.
Before disassembly I mark the inside of the frame with a pattern of indentations using flat bladed and cross-head screwdrivers and a punch - these marks are not obscured by the finish.
Thanks for this info. Very helpful. I had no idea that laminated boards were stronger!
I also confess that I didn't know that.
@Aleph Leonine What substrate do you mean? I don't understand it.
Lovely
the dowels supprised me, thanks.
Hi Colin! Great video. I really like the doweling jig you used. Do you happen to have a link to where I can purchase the same one you used?
Hi Colin, do you have a link to a video on how to make a dowl jig? Thanks & love your channel
I'd love more information about that dowel jig.
I did not know that 2 boards glued together are stronger the 1 board the same size. Ty for the education!
They are not only stronger but more stable, they resist warping and twisting as well. Guitar manufacturers have been doing this for decades. A good one to look up is Ibanez guitars, and just look as some pictures. They make the thinnest guitar necks in the world and they do a 7 ply usually of very hard but different woods. Guitarist take them from the desert to rainy Seattle sometimes even days apart and the neck woods don't move.
I have worked with pine most of my life but I have never tried the dye or water based stains. The oil based stains I always use the pre-stain, makes huge difference in the end result. Wondering if it raises the grain, would it be best to apply the dye/stain then lightly sand it down before applying another coat of stain or whatever finish... poly, varnish or shellac..
I'm very impressed and I have a question. I am using pine 1x10 pine board. My messurments a are 30 in long x 18 1/2 wide x 10 tall. I want to strengthen the box with a frame and dowl rods any ideas?
Good info but I've got a random question.
What is that watch you're wearing? The bronze looking one in the first half of the video.
When using pine a rather common problem is to have a sliver break off of the edge then the glue wells up during glue up and you have a bright yellow line to dig out or cover. With a dark finish you can get rid of his problem by gluing with dark wood. I really love it on walnut but it works with any brown stained wood.
great vid but as a newbie, i didn't see any glue being used during assembly and since the wood was already darkened, it made me wonder how you remove any squeeze out ? or do you only apply it VERY sparingly ? or not at all ?
Awesome video. What can you tell me about the dowel jig?
More video about pinewood Sir. :) Stay safe
Will gluing up the wood surfaces together cause the cracking issue due to wood movement?
I have used dyes on ash and birch, with good results.
Colin, can you say what you did in your marking up to make sure that your dowels didn't run into each other at the tops of each leg?
Very cool and no bla bla this thing or that thing. Just let's build a table.
Great tips, with links to other parts or finishes.
What maximum size dowel can you use for 3/4 thick board?
Thank you.
Hi Colin
In one of your videos you had a left handed tape measure. Could you please give a link for the purchase of one ?
Great videos, really helpful.
I made a six drawer chest of drawers when I lived in an apartment. Designed it around standard sizes and just used drywall screws. Held up well, now it's in the spare bedroom full of stuff (junk!). Pine is a very nice looking wood. I prefer clear finish.
I might make a little table like that out of walnut. Sorry, but I have access to walnut that isn't to expensive.
Nice thumbnail 👍👍, very eye catching
Hi, was glue used for both the dowel joint and pocket hole joint for the test?
This is great.
As a hobbyist, who has mainly tried mdf and plywood, but also live in a part of the EU who doesn't have very easy access to hardwood (Unless you wanna pay like 1000$ for 10cm2), I was wondering if it was even worth trying. I see that it is ;)
Hi what is the name of the tool you are using to scrape the glue off the wood? Keep up the good work I learned some tips. THANKS
2:25 Pro tip: Keep your two pieces touching as you apply glue, rather than having to run the bottle back and forth 2x and risk it running down the gap between.
Nice boss😃😃😃
Great video. Where did you get the dowel jig from?
