- ⚙️ SHOW NOTES - EPISODE #190: After recently seeing the works of Sam Maloof and Wharton Esherick up close, I am inspired to explore the art and structure of sculptural wood joints. In this episode I share my best methods and techniques while we make a contoured wood joint, an element that just might generate fresh ideas for an upcoming project.

I must say how much I appreciate it when the camera lady turns down the volume on the machine noise but doesn't totally mute it out
Yes, I agree, the camera lady is quite the pro! 👍
Using the upper method diagramed at 35:44, run the tenon deep enough to catch about 50% of the long grain in the vertical member. That way, the short grain section is reinforced internally by the cross grain tenon, and the shear load is transferred deeper into the vertical long grain.
Hi thank you for sharing this 👌I used it in a footstool with pairs of legs
Hey Tom, I’ve been recently going through the shop stool course and had this idea in the back of my head to try and implement some flowing joints as described and demonstrated here. Fortunately I came across this demonstration again(I saw it when u first did it). So glad I did before starting because I was ready to do the “short grain technique” more than shaping the legs for those curves. I’m hoping to try it anyway😄. Thx again.
Another educational session and good to see you back in the Shop. Mahalo
Thank you, it’s great to be back!😎👍
Another excellent shop session. Thanks!!
Thanks Jerry, I had fun with that! 😎👍
Instead of cutting into the “long grain” piece, you could also build it up by gluing an additional long grain piece, and then sculpting that. Might save wood.
Been meaning to commend you on your bandsaw work. You make it look so easy staying close to the line.
Thank you Tom. I have been doing it long enough it ought to be easy 😎 But a lot has to do with simply the bandsaw being set up well and feeling the stabilizing support of lightly leaning what was just sawn against the flat surface of the bandsaw. Thanks for watching and being part of us! 👍
Very nice! Gotta give it a try!
Thank you for this video. So inspiring. Makes me want to push the boundaries of design.
Thanks Jason, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! And sure, why not push the boundaries? ….we all begin with a white sheet of paper. 😎👍
cool, thanks
Thanks Darin! 👍
could one uses branches for the stool?
Sure, I don’t see why not, give it a shot. I’ve known a successful, gifted and creative craftsman for years as we are both part of the New Hampshire Furniture Masters. He’s the most Wharton Esherick-like maker I know, especially when it comes to his home…not a straight line! But he has made many pieces with maple saplings. You can go to furnituremasters.org and click on Jon Brooks to see his work and website. I do know the saplings are completely dry when he uses them and I don’t know if he works around or how he deals with the pith. Hope that helps! 👍😎
@@EpicWoodworking thank you
