    I much prefer this slower, longer in-depth project format - for me, at least. As well as getting a new project, it gives a good half hour of relaxed viewing, which is what I prefer. I look forward to the next instalment. Great job, keep it up!

    You know, a lot of RUclips woodworkers lost me when they started saying "Just use your powered chisel mortiser" or "$750 planer" when I was too poor to afford those tools. You have never forgotten you once started with hand tools and only hand tools. I imagine you have introduced many new woodworkers to affordable woodworking and I am grateful to you for that.

    I love that you’re continuing to run over. You’re doing an amazing job of explaining your thought process as you go. This is so refreshing since everything has been pushing to shorter and shorter videos.
    I can digest all of this after work when I’m exhausted and put it to practice this weekend. (Usually the next morning, but my week is hell) Other people watch super hero shows or whatever. Boring. When I zone out, I want to learn stuff.

    I confess that I winced when I saw a 30+ minute video from you. It's difficult to steal that much time during the day. But I realized by watching in the evening, in lieu of some television, I paid more attention, I think I learned more, and I enjoyed the video more. Thanks for sharing.

  • @johnfreiler6017
    @johnfreiler6017 2 месяца назад

    Excellent work Rex. This is exactly the sort of content I like and I'm very glad that you're keeping the video's short: too many RUclipsrs seem to think that uploading an hour, hour-and-a-half video is fine and I just can deal with that much content. Keep up tot he good work, and hey, don't forget about the log you rolled off the truck: looking for that one too.

  • @joelhollingsworth2374
    @joelhollingsworth2374 2 месяца назад +1

    around 19:40 you mention that you can't saw into the corner, which is true, but you can establish a saw kerf or knife wall from the edge and chisel out waste to achieve a line that goes directly to the corner, establishing a ledge that will allow you to saw to that exact line. It's slightly less sawing and maintains a little more material for the joint, but obviously isn't essential to the result.

  • @c.a.g.1977

    I really got a lot out of this.
    I've attempted to cut angled half laps before and while they came out okay, with your tips and tricks I think they will come out much better next time.
    The slower pace of the video has also started to cement the process in my brain.

    @Linkyboy321 2 месяца назад

    Want to say, as I think it is important feedback. I was initially put off by the video length, and didn't immediately watch as I do your other videos. With that said, I am really glad I did eventually watch part 1, I enjoyed the longer format and learnt a lot more. Seeing how you handle small things that I have been struggling with in my own woodworking was incredibly helpful. I think it's a good idea to mix in some of these longer form series, though be careful that others might put off watching them, not knowing how helpful they are. Going to go back and add a comment on the first video too, in case it helps your video reach more people. Thanks Rex!

    I built a trap door for covering the cellar stairs, so we could also get to the attic. I designed as a torsion box, with internal ribs running both with the length and across the width - so, perhaps over built by some standards. The ribs intersect with half-laps like your middle stretcher. To get the saw set up (I used a dado set to cut the notches), I practiced using scraps of pine. I now use one of those practice pieces as a saddle square. It is going on twenty years old, and remains true.

    The vise block you sell reminds me of a jig that you can find in the book "Jigs and Fixtures for the Hand Tool Woodworker" by Graham Blackburn, in the book he uses it to mark set lines by putting a pencil in the corner and just gliding it along the edge of a board. Good cheap book if you want a whole bunch (50) of workholding and measurement jigs that are all pretty general purpose and usable.

    28:00 I like the idea of attaching a fence to the bench to anchor one side & use the bar clamp on the unsupported leg to make sure they are square & parallel. If the ends need a bit more sanding or what have you to get the lengths spot on can make your table shorter before you get the fit you're looking for.

  • @emerald1587
    @emerald1587 2 месяца назад

    Thank you for these very educational videos (parts I and II). One thing I wonder about is that you recommend starting sawing (western style) with a pulling motion. Previously I followed a video about sawing by Paul Sellers, in which he strongly advised to always start sawing with a push stroke, otherwise the fibers you touch will lie against the teeth of the saw. That would make it harder to keep your saw aligned when you start sawing. Why do you advice the pull strokes first? Unfortunately I cannot find this specific instruction video of Paul again...

    @puckducker9401 2 месяца назад

    When your cleaning up (scraping/sanding) your pieces before glue up, aren't you concerned this will alter the size of those finely fitted joints? I've had this issue where I get everything fitted snug, and then go clean up the pieces by sanding them smooth....only to then find that now all my joints are loose and sloppy.

      If you get rid of the other waste first, then you're cutting a thinner piece and it's easier to be accurate. Also, some people are going to do a plain half-lap, and I wanted to show that.

    I believe you are one of the master hand tool users on RUclips. I saw this old guy in some rural countryside, somewhere in Asia build some folding furniture from a solid chunk of wood, using some very basic hand tools. What made it particularly interesting was that it was all cut from the same piece of wood, while not being separated.

    I’m hoping you can build one of these so we can see how it’s done.
