I'm not making this up - I recently bought some of those feet with the intention of making some winding sticks. On the way home from the grocery store tonight I was thinking about making them, but I knew I had to research using them. And BAM! This little gem of a video had gone online. Thanks!
Oh, Dad joke: Last night I dreamt I was drowning in an ocean of orange soda...it was a Fanta Sea.
I appreciate the etymology lesson, too! I've never thought about the original meaning of things like "winding up" or "tried and true". I had all of the pieces but never put those particular language puzzles together.
WHEW!!! I thought you had forgotten the "dad joke" thank you for knot :)
I once had muttered to the walls and the workbench that those sticks should’ve been called “twisting sticks.” From now on, I will no longer call it a twist in a board will now call it a wine in the board. Thanks so much for straightening us out for me! Love your work.
Any 2 straight sticks with parallel faces with serve for this task. Identical blocks will serve as legs to clear a a crown. When I set up a job site field bench on horses I sight across the top rails and block the horse legs until they are parallel. Really fancy winding sticks!
If they help you wind down at the end of the day, wouldn't that make them Unwinding Sticks?
Time to make some legit sticks. This technique is proving to be one of those things that actually saves me time even when using power tools, and general layout. My router flattening sled requires coplaner rails that are tedious to setup with strings and measuring. I used a combo-square 1 time and threw on the sticks. Had it setup in a minute, and don't think could have done better with any other method.
I purchased 2 architects triangular rulers from Amazon (cheap) that are black. Put some tan masking tape on the top edge of one to see a different color. The wide bottom sits on the wood very stable. They are lightweight, will not warp and are very easy for my old eyes to focus on
Thanks for the search terms. I was having trouble finding those rulers. They used to be in every hardware store, and I always thought, 'why would anyone want one of those?', lol
oops, not what I was thinking but definitely will work. I thought those levels with 1 flat side, and 1 knife edge.
@@B.A.Bassangler I took drafting in High School and used them for their intended purpose of changing the scale of a drawing. But I thought that these would alleviate the warping potential (i live on the coast of Colombia with 90 deg temp and 75-95% humidity). They don't need to be level. Just equal. And they sit on the board great
@@mikehinson4062 haha, someone else remembers HS drafting.
Rob Cosman showed me winding sticks about 10 years ago. Thank you for reinforcing and updating something I knew. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂
Great video, thank you! I'd love to see a video of you using the winding sticks with those feet and take us through flattening a slab. Thanks again for your videos!
here you go. ruclips.net/video/zda7nmWNOEU/видео.html
Thanks James! Another banger of a tutorial.
Really great explnation of the what, why, and how of winding sticks. You are a really good teacher amongst your list of superlatives. Thanks James.
Excellent, James! My first project was to make winding sticks. I do use them, but never had the complete story.
Thanks James, just completed my first pair of sticks
This reminds me that I am long overdue to making my own set and then actually use them. I've embarrassingly planed off too much of a few boards trying to get them flat.
I've been using some scraps, need to make proper winding sticks though.
As always, appreciate your videos. Thanks for sharing longer form fundamentals stuff.
I use winding sticks. First time I ever saw the feet. Thanks.
Thanks a bunch for all the tips, James! 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
been thinking about making some for a long time - now I have the inspiration to do so - thanks - keep up the Dad jokes :)
Thank you for making such great content! You have helped me improve and be more confident in woodworking.
Great job. Thank you 😊
Very good information for beginner woodworkers! Ten thumbs up! 👍🏻 ❎🔟
I agree winding sticks are a good first project
Very informative and well-done. Thank you.
When the shape of the board is winding you up just stick with it.
Great video! Thanks!
The long and winding stick
thank you
thanks
Please next make optical squar
Thanks for sharing that, very smart way!
Yep winding sticks don't need to be pretty but straight
I think you're winding us up!
If you think about it, they should really be called "unwinding sticks".
O shit, James is all wound up...
Didn’t Neil Young name one of his albums “Wood Never Sleeps?” 😂
A sticky business.😊
CDB!
I'm thinking of something and not sure exactly how to express it, maybe it already exists. I feel like it is somehow possible to use the winding boards with feet--and a pencil--to draw a series of lines with a consistent method that results in a board that has a bunch of lines on it and the lines are concentrated at high points and less dense at low points, like a topographical map.
Does this make any sense? I feel like there has to be a way to algorithmically do this. Maybe not actually worth doing though
Can you please make a video where you explain the point of tapered saws? I have no idea why some say it is better.
Are you talking about large hand saws where the back is thinner at the top than the bottom?
@@WoodByWrightHowTo I think he might mean some dovetail saws that are tapered front to back. I also think LN sells a tapered version of their saw.
That would be kant in the saw. Usually about 1/8" to 1/4". Measuring from the back down to the teeth at the toe and heel of the saw the heel is usually a quarter to 1/8 in taller than the toe. This is so when you are cutting a joint you're always cutting a little deeper on your side of the cut playing it safe on the other side then at the very end you tip the soft forward just a couple degrees to bring it all level. It used to be fairly common in back saws but went out of favor around the turn of the last century.
Actually that video wound me up
Hi James, This was another wonderful video, and well done covering this subject. Very well presented and concise too...
Here is some information and/or considerations you may find of value...The first example, which appears to be a "cant" of some form so more in my realm of timber framing material and not a slab or plank...which is...what "winding sticks" are really meant for...seldom timber unless using "edge" or "mill rule" layout system...then sometimes they are employed or even with "scribe rule" just to get a handle on understanding your materials...
An alternative, even for large slabs/planks, is the Asian "Line Rule" system of layout where winding sticks are not needed or warranted since with this layout modality you can work with round, live edge, tapered, or any given geometry of wood and still get precise joinery...Food for thought, and as always…love what you share here…

If you have a wine in your board do you need to get cheese to have with it?
Only if it's a cheese 🧀 board
@@johncrable3349 My favourite type! LOL.
Would it be a good idea to make the stick in the back narrower to not have to get your head so far down?
You could but it wouldn't allow you to get that much lower.
It's all whine, whine, whine..... with you lol 😆 😂
11 minute gang
That is the way this channel works.
I tried to come up with something original to say, but truly couldn't.
Winding sticks exaggerate problems but not nearly as much as my third wife did...!
So you didn't stick with her...
Putting two straightedges in a V with the ends touching flush should define a flat that you can reference with a third straightedge. And for self-proving straight edges you need to make three of them so you already got them. I usually go with two of my try squares for narrow stuff, or break out two cheapo, 60cm spirit levels if I need a bit more width.
There has to be a way to find center on the edge of a twisted board. Then you could just measure off of that and make two saw cuts. It would keep the work of planing to a minimum.
You like to “wind” yourself up.
what if you take a thin rope tension it from one end to the other on the board , if you put a rope under tension it becomes straight. you clamp the rope on one end then go to the other and look
Are you trying to wind us up with this video? 🤔
Firstn't
congrats
@@SBKuromori I guess you didn't realize the paradox. 😊
@@MCsCreations I guess I did ;)
