    Interesting. If you used a stepped scarf then the wedges would pull the joint tighter still. Maybe not necessary in this application though.

    • @whirled_peas
      @whirled_peas Год назад

      Yes - I've commented this too. This isn't a jupiter scarf (trait de jupiter) - it's closer to a regular splice with wedges and has a number of issues, as you identify the primary issue is the wedges are doing half the work they could be. There are many examples of this inferior scarf on the web. This is how to lay one out correctly ruclips.net/video/p7K6m6cH7os/видео.html

    We always had Bahco F type clamps for that type of work, also useful for rotating beams or 'taking a twist out', in the larger sizes.

  • @disklamer
    @disklamer Год назад +1

    That is a sight.
    Half a mil off, over 20 cm width, is 1/400th.
    That is one quarter of a percent.
    That is a pretty good tolerance, probably well within the precision limit of any powertool.
    I’d not bother with screws, somehow they always manage to suck moisture in. Putting some pegs through will surely give it enough rigidity, this kind of joint by itself is already almost indestructible.

  • @RAGproduction
    @RAGproduction 9 месяцев назад +1

    10 years framer here. The wedges aren't doing much, only pushing the joint tight by that hairline gap ~0.5mm. Which is enough friction to stop the joint pulling apart initially, but not really enough to counter the powers of Oak drying. There should be stepped, offset faces the full width of the wedges. This will likely peel open over time. Could need some metal fixings. Your joinery stuff is sick though. Quality stuff 🤙

    • @c4fishfood
      @c4fishfood 8 дней назад

      I’m confused- are you saying that a scarp joint will not work in green oak, or that the geometry of this one is wrong? As far as I understand it, the toe is keyed in at maybe 5 degrees or so (so not purely friction but more like oblique compression). This joint has been made tight as can be, and I have seen lots of very older/cruder scarps holding good.

    Absolutely love all your videos and enjoy the blended subject matter. When you were doing the splice job on the beams and got to the stage of cutting the housings for the wedge - did you not consider keeping it all assembled and clamped and cutting the housing with your chain morticer?
    I realise you are cracking out long hours farming and making sawdust as well as cranking out regular YT output (Thank you) - but have you ever watched Leo of the Sampson Boat Company who is rebuilding an old wooden yacht Tally Ho ( he has done some amazing woodwork - and in particular spliced joints in large keel timbers made of purple heart) and is 6 years into the project. Another one is Kris of Kris Harbour Natural building - a much more eclectic channel building hydro schemes, wind turbines and more recently timber framed buildings. Worth a scan during the winter if you find yourself at a loose end for a couple of milliseconds.👍🤣

  • @KTX666
    @KTX666 Год назад

    The joints at the ends has to have zero gap between them for the joint to be strong. You can acieve that by making a cut through each joint when the joint is "loosely" assembled with a handsaw. Your joints looks absolutely beautiful, but it wont matter if they're not strong 😬 i like your videos, keep them coming 👍

    • @BradshawJoinery

    What about a domino or two each side on that ‘shoulder’ ( the one I keep harping on about running a fine saw down 😜)
    Then it should close up to perfect alignment with sort of a fox wedged tenon feel
    Damn I’m a genius dude 😇 😂

  • @whirled_peas
    @whirled_peas Год назад +1

    This isn’t a jupiter scarf. A jupiter scarf is what you should be doing 😅. A jupiter scarf is hooked which allows the wedges to have full contact with both pieces, not in a trench like you’ve done here.

    • @whirled_peas
      @whirled_peas Год назад

      What you’ve done is fine but it is inferior to a jupiter scarf (aka trait de jupiter or as it’s known in the US, a hooked stop-splayed undersquinted scarf joint)

    • @whirled_peas
      @whirled_peas Год назад

      The problem at 4:00 is the primary issue with this kind of scarf. I’ve seen wedges split due to having uneven load on them

      Watch hammering oak with a lump hammer, if it's green it's guaranteed to bruise and stain. If it's dry it can still stain if it gets wet (only needs the tiniest bit of iron on the surface to react)

    • @whirled_peas
      @whirled_peas Год назад

      To address the tapered/poor fit of the second scarf you could kerf cut them together by clamping/fixing the pieces together and running a saw down the gap, taking off any points that contact. Japanese saws are considerably better than western saws at this (using tension lets you put much more work into the cut) - this can be a lot of work though if you have a lot of correction to do

    6:13 might want to look up the traditional Japanese "Kanawa tsugi" joint, which includes keying the ends to prevent misalignment once the wedge is in place.

  • @CreativeCarpentry
    @CreativeCarpentry Год назад +1

    Looks like it’s all coming together- plenty more mortises to come all along the length of the beam, how long does a sharpened chain last in the chain mortiser cutting into the green oak?

  • @TgWags69
    @TgWags69 Год назад +6

    To keep it from twisting sideways, you could simulate a bridle joint. Make a tongue and groove type joint longitudinally down the scarf. Kind of like a keyway on a shaft. Route the grooves out then use around a 15x15mm square oak "tongue" make sure and rotate the grain on the key/tongue vertically so it won't shear. It would be nice and clean so it wouldn't show. Make sure there is some clearance in the groove, so the tongue doesn't swell and separate the joint.

    • @whirled_peas
      @whirled_peas Год назад +1

      Yep, this is seen in japanese scarfs often. A jupiter scarf (which this isn't) that is fitted well will resist more side load than is typical for a beam (in good timber frame design the only significant load on a beam should be vertical).

    • @Dazza19746

    Another solution for the wasp nest is ant powder, dust the opening of the nest with it, they drag the power into the nest and it kills everything in the nest. Works a treat, was shown this by pest control inspector.

    • @idontthinkso666

      Yes, or you could just not kill the wasps, and have a pro come in and rehome them. Wasps are pollinators.

    Love the project, friend, but I have a complaint about you killing the wasps. They are pollinators, and a part-time farmer, or at least farmer-adjacent, you should appreciate the value of pollinators. A simple phone call to an expert and they could remove that nest without killing anyone. I know you make excuses like “wasps are mean” or “wasps like to sting” and what not, but just…don’t.

    • @whirled_peas
      @whirled_peas Год назад

      Yep - they keep populations of other insects in check too which a farmer or farmer-adjacent chap should appreciate. They never sting you without reason too. Wasp hate is pretty stupid.

      They looked like European hornets. They are of limited pollination value. By the time their nests are large enough it’s well beyond pollination season and all do is eat fruit. If they were honey bees, absolutely try to save the hive.
