🔥 Amazing making this curved joint in wood. Nice woodworking technique

- I don't know if this can be called a woodworking joint, but it is an interesting way to practice bending wood. Surely you already saw this way of making a corner joint with a metal profile, so I decided to try making this curved corner joint, but with wood. Although I am not sure if this can be called a wood joint, a carpenter's trick, a woodworking tip or what. But I love to see how the grain of the wood has continuity all along the 90 degrees at the front of the curved joint. Anyway, I also took the opportunity to practice bending wood at home with boiling water, which is something I tried to do for the first time.
In this list you can watch the videos in which I make my jigsaw table. It is very useful for me to cut wood with a lot of precision:

Also, you can watch my drill powered disc sander and other DIY wood sanding machines here:

you literally just folded wood. incredible.
Billy Bob Benjamin I can fold wood so easy because it is PAPER thin. Lol
I think it's pretty neat!
I love the brute honesty: “ I don’t know if this is a useful joint” 😂😂😂
Incorporating a biscuit would help it maybe?
More usefull in wielding
The answer he's looking for is no.
I can see this being used for a really high-end piece with a nice grain that you don’t want interrupted with joins.
Any idea can be useful in a specific enough situation, but there can't be many cases this specific one would be good to use. Almost in every case you would be better off achieving the same thing by lining the edge with a strip of thin wood. That way you can have whatever type of joint under it and construct the underlying frame/plate whatever in any way you like.
Next time use the steam in a raised area over the water. It will bend right in place. Still have to watch for cracking of course. It’s a decorative joint, not a structural one.
You have an impressive number of homemade, very functional, bench mount tools. Great job.
It's great! It's totally impractical, but it made me think. That's the highest praise I can give a RUclips video. Thanks ;)
It’s not that I practice it works well with plywood you simple leave a ply and use adhesive inside the bend; no boiling though. It works better then round cutting and banding because the plys run vertically instead of horizontally.
Could you try to make an evolution of the joint? Maybe go 45 degrees from each end instead of 90 from one side? That should make it a lot more surface area and easier to fit a “spine” in the middle? Hmmm 🤔

I’ve made exactly the same comment elsewhere on this thread, but cutting at 45° the meeting of the 2 end grains match perfectly and would look interesting in for example the end of the arm of a chair, a biscuit or 2 and priming the end grain would probably give the joint enough strength to be practical. The outer thin piece would stop the joint from failing in one direction and a biscuit would straighten it in the other.
Impractical as a strong joint but a cool technique if you want a 90° bend in something and both the other ends are strongly secured.
Curved joints usually come from my pocket.

Sometimes the quest is more important than the destination. 😉
Nice Job!
You should combine it with a dovetail. Like when you fold it together, the 2 halves slot into each other.
if you look through the book “cedar” by hilary stewart....u will see native americans along the pacific northwest coast made bentwood boxes like this.....just thought i would let ya know
Nobody can complain about a nice joint...
If there are some to admire is the tools that he have developed. They are great tools made from standard ones like drill and electric jigsaw.
Well, as others have mentioned, all of the glue surface is endgrain, so this thing will pop apart at the slightest provocation. It *is* an interesting joint though. Maybe if there was a spline along the two mating flat surfaces it would have the strength necessary to be useful.
That being said, sometimes doing something that isn't useful just for the sake of doing it is worthwhile. It's a *really* cool joint, useful or not.

Exactly right, no structural integrity, but a better way to kill a few hours than watching tv.
Holy crap! Give the guy a break and use your imagination!!
A simple dowel or 2 would make it super strong.
Plus if it's used as an arm for a chair the structure of the chair will help keep it from coming apart and will probably be stronger and stay together longer than most chair arm joints.
Great video!
@@bill7646 Furthermore, I don't know if you watched the video until the very end, but he said, "I don't know if this is a useful joint." That's what I was responding to. He implicitly *asked* for comments on how the joint might be useful as is, or might be made useful.
@@bill7646 a dowel won't work because you won't be able to bend it into the piece... However a biscuit could be made to work.
It still won't be as strong as a standard joint, but it can be useful for some small things.
Came here because of a youtube recommendation. One of the more interesting woodwork videos i have seen in a while, and i will be making your sander
Recently, I saw a metalworker bend a square profile pipe like this.
Very interesting to see it adapted to wood as well!
Thank you for another terrific show of craftsmanship.
Thank you very much. I couldn't resist to try this in wood 😄
Rest assured that you did a fantastic rendition of it, my friend! Congratulations on it.
👌😉👍
My anxiety at 4:26 😵💣😅
Beautiful work!! In an age where machines and efficiency have robbed us of art, it's so refreshing to see this 😊
when you said "I don't know if it is useful but you know I have to try" I feel we must be distantly related somehow.
I see some dustin the wood, and I tried to blow it on my screen.
I feel dumb.
you should.
Ok at first I was asking my self why go through all that work for that but now that is is done I like it would make a nice corner for a table or something thanks 😊
Thank you Jeffrey 😄. I will make a second version that will look even more nice 😄
I was taught only to use a pencil to mark wood never use pen as the ink goes into the fibres and is difficult to remove.
Different tools have different applications.
John Martinez
I don’t understand what you mean.
I mean he did boil the board afterward 😁
Well you can use a marking knife for fine woodworking, or maybe an exacto knife, or various thickness mechanical pencils such as .5 .7 etc. or if you're milling you can use a lumber crayon, or sharpie and a pen works if you're still in the rough phase. I'm no expert but there are several videos on this topic. I personally mark with a pencil especially on plywood because you can't sand too far down, but "only" is a very strong word and different tools have different applications. One video I just saw the guy mentions that a pencil mark can smudge into the grain fibers while a pen mark comes off cleanly while sanding. I guess at the end of the day it's all personal preference.
John Martinez
Wow!
I've seen this technique used on metalwork tubing/piping etc before, but never even thought to use it in wood joinery.
I was about to say the same thing, it’s clever for sure but kinda impractical for woodworking
I like your bandsaw and disk sander..👍👍
Haha, dude, this was really cool! I kinda want to try it now. Imagine trying to make a square box, with four corners... That would be hard.
I was imagining someone getting their house trim done like this. All the windows and doors.
@@ethanmarlow2630 Pretty sweet idea. I could see that working well in a modern minimalist home.
Imagine trying to make a sqaure WITHOUT 4 corners then, that would be impossible!
Look into the Haida Bentwood box. The Haida are Indigenous to the West coast of Canada and this is how they have traditionally made their boxes.
It is a joy watching you, greetings from Greece
Thank you 😄
Interesting mate, thank you 👍
Let’s see if you can do 4 corners on one piece. ⭕️
He would have to get a bigger pot
3's the max
deeez00 why?
@@deeez00 no one told to do 4 corners into square shape.
@@adamwilson8392 Not necessarily, you could do four corners like this, and the joint of the two ends can be in the middle of one of the square's sides instead of in a corner.
I saw an exact video of this but with welders and metal, and this joint is effective with metal.
This a direct parallel of a steel working technique. Cool idea! Thanks for sharing!
Dude!!!
You’re a badass!!!
Seriously!!!
Thank you!!!
Not quite sure how I got to this video... But I think I'll Stick around for more interesting videos 😊
The guy is awesome and I look forward to seeing his videos.
Well done! 👍❤️😎
Loved the video, very thought provoking! Also I thought all the home made tools look fantastic. A true woodworker!
You should have a TV show mate, actually genius & great viewing. Who invents their own joints....? Brilliant.
Wood working seems therapeutic. Watching vids like this is relaxing especially living in today's world. Greetings from the US!
Thank you Aaron 😀
Excellent idea for exterior deck hand rails
It's a cool concept, but it definitely just looks like a rounded butt joint with edge banding.
You say that as it that was a bad thing... it IS a rounded butt joint with INTEGRAL edge banding - actually useful when you have no banding, or when in need to _ensure_ the banding matches the rest of the wood.
"How to add hours to your joinery" because, why not. Very clever, I enjoyed it...
Fantastic job 🙏
Had I seen this video in Grade 9 shop class it would have inspired me into artistic furniture designing👍
Tip, add sawdust from the workpiece to white wood glue to use as filler.
I spent the whole video thinking what I would use this technique for but it is as you say, you had to make it to see the results and I'm glad you made the video. Great job :)
Thank you very much Douglas. I will make a better version that sure will be more useful in woodworking 😀
Rather than a board, would stacked and glued plywood that has a nice outer veneer glue up better with the bend?
When you boil it you will wreak the plywood.
Nice video. Helps us understand wood and develop our imagination.
Почти все иснтрументы сделаны своими руками)) отлично
Все новое - это хорошо забытое старое
This is actually very useful. I had a similar idea a few weeks ago, for a table i wanted to build, but i couldn't make it work. You have a good brain, sir.
That could definitely look cool and the arms of a patio chair - particularly with a very striped-grain wood such as fir.
Have not worked in wood since high school, but what about putting a biscuit in the square section and cutting a matching channel in the part that is bent. Would that make up for the end grain problem? Great video.
I prefer to put a biscuit in sausage gravy and then eat it for breakfast. But I’m not sure what that has to do with woodworking.
What a reply.
@@Aphelion1 You obviously know nothing about woodworking or else you wouldn't have made such a dumb comment.
@@georgeroman165 r/whooosh
@@xMysticWolf 👍👍👍
Well done!
Looks like a simple project but enough to show how smart you are,nice video, congratulations,Antonio Campos.
Thank you very much Antonio 😀
It's useful, I've used it many times. No joins around the end grain area, looks great.
I use a pocket screw to reinforce the joint.
Super cool video, I've never seen anyone try this before.
Thought I had though is that you'd get a similar looking end product if you use edge banding and it would be way less work.
With that being said I'm so entertained by the exploration...thanks for sharing!
Thanks for trying it out for the rest of us! Now we know and I guess that's the key word here.
It's good to have seen this once, because in 17 years and 231 days someone who saw this will really need it!
The Northwest Native Americans have been using the kerf bending technique for ages to make chests and boxes for storage.
Great proof of concept. Possible application, in my mind, would be keep the thin part, but make it longer, then cut a piece out of the second piece of wood so you could bend it round like a venere and glue on. might be less involved, but get similar results?
A wonderful idea. I'm so glad you made this video. I don't know that I would ever use the technique, but it opens the mind up to think of possibilities.
Creative! Well done!
Very interesting that you figured out a way to add a lamination to a joint (to hide the end grain) and have the lamination integral to the joint. I bet the joint has good strength. Loved the video.
Came for the joint, stayed for the tools!
Great job! Thanks for sharing,
this was great thank you
Amazing! Curious! Mathematical! Bravo!
Never wear gloves when working with a saw or lathe. ..
I was thinking that but then I looked at what he was cutting with and then I realized I’d wear gloves too, lol
It is just a reciprocating saw upside down so it is not TOO dangerous.
that may cause to lost one of the nine fingers
Gloves are fine for a reciproating saw....
Ok,I get it....
Just research bent wood boxes made by the Haida Indians of the north west coast of British Columbia. You will see this joint was well used.
Very cool...
Very interesting joint. Thanks for showing it to us.
Woww.. Che gran lavoro... Anche a me piace lavorare il legno... Complimenti... Ciao dall'italia
Beautiful joint with plenty of possibilities 👍🏻
Wooden bend for with no structural support...for a good finish in the corner looks fantastic...
So useful thank you for help us with your time bro 👍
This is brilliant..you are awesome sir!!
K buena idea maravillosa gracias
👏 I think this a cycloid application about as useful as the textbook square-wheeled tire, but I love seeing it explored in joinery
This makes me want to become a carpenter
omg give this man an oscar, you're genious sir i love your channel, i cant wait to see more videos of yours
You should look up "Bentwood boxes." This hollow-out and bend technique has been used for centuries to make boxes for anything from cooking to ceremonial storage.
thats a realy cool joint
Yo sabía que la matemática me iba ayudar mucho aunque no me gustara, pero no me imaginaba que le dieran un uso así cortando madera, muy interesante.
Muy bueno, como siempre.
Thank you very much for this great idea. You are talented, for sure. Well done.
What an interesting technique! Thanks for sharing
Including a small radius on the 'pointed end' of the joint would have made this stronger. However, a very nice demonstration of your carpentry skills.
Fillet.
@@American11B round, with a mating fillet
You could also add a hidden spline if you needed some more strength . Great job !
I just stumbled upon your video. IT is a very creative way of wrapping the wood onto itself. Thanks for the useful tip.
Honest attempt
Fantastic video. Great job
Nice work
Same procedure for square tubular metal without the water treatment. You get a nice rounded corner. When welded correctly and the welds cleaned up properly, the results are amazing.
Nice, this is a technique used in metalwork
Very nice! Much room for experimenting ... a thinner strip, more boiling, steam in a pressure cooker.
Nice video I’ll definitely try this!!
They should’ve titled this “how to spend a day bending one board
Of course it’s a useful joint -especially if four corner joints are made from a single solid piece. It certainly make awesome aesthetics for framing and furniture.
Ammonia or glass cleaner with ammonia will make the wood easier to bend.
pretty cool man
brilliant ive been thinking of boiling wood for a while now i going to try soooo much easier then steaming
Clever.
That was simply stunning. Thank you.
Well done. We use this method box section steel. You need a tube laser cutter unfortunately. Really nice video thx.
Magnifique technique !! 😉
