This video gives you an overview of the importance of face sides and edges, different approaches to cutting out the joint, different methods of cleaning it up at the end and troubleshooting the final fit.

So glad someone who knows what they are talking about is out there showing the meticulous way to do basic joinery. So often we run across these kinds of videos and someone just says "this is easy, watch how quick and easy I do this" and they get it done but it's obviously top quality. Thanks for doing these.
Just a suggestion but japanese joinery uses a round head hammer and lightly tap the joint area to aid in assembly then rehydrate the wood to return it to its proper size. Almost doesn't need glue. I love using that technique if my joint is a little tight. But as always a great video thanks for sharing.
That's a wonderful tip. I'm absolutely going to try this today or tomorrow when I get around to doing more joinery practice. Thanks for that.
Matt - your videography gets better and better - great job
Appreciate the tips on how to line up your work and the little subtle things that you point out to make your work accurate. Keep it up!
Great series Matt! Keep 'em coming 😁
Another excellent and articulate tutorial video, Matt. Thank you!
Great job Matt. Looking forward to seeing the next video.
This has been a awesome series on half lap joinery I learned quite a bit.
You are just incredible, methinks :) I really like your speed and your style. Always a good combination of entertainment and first class information, thank you!
Another great video Matt. Thanks for teaching the world.
"Give it a little more whack whack!" That's a T-Shirt slogan if I've ever heard one.
“We’re not going for accuracy. We’re going for whack-whack.”
Whack-whack is my new word. Great detailed guide.
Really looking forward to see if you do a video on cutting a mortice and tenon by hand they always frustrated me at college
Just popping through your videos and saw this one, which was similar to what I did last night. Thanks to your enthusiasm, you’ve encouraged me to start a City & Guilds class in Carpentry and Joinery (with a view to do Bench Joinery). It’s a lot harder than you make it look! Thanks for all your great videos, Matt... you have a wealth of knowledge and great presentation skills.
Lol
Great video. New subscriber. Handy tip to work off face sides to cancel out any inaccuracy in the measure. Learning from scratch via youtube so i rely on good videos like this. 👍
Thanks man,. Bery nice presentation!!
Thanks Matt, I appreciate these instructional videos and the tool duels and the rest. Do you teach woodwork as well? Between watching you, Paul Sellers, and James wright I continue to be inspired with confidence to do more and more woodworking. Thank you
Love these videos. Thanks
Thank you Charles, glad you like them!
This is awesome. Thanks. God Bless.
Thanks mate
Nice video, lots of useful and helpful information. What is the best way to go about getting workworking (vs building) tools? I am a carpenter and I thought I would get more exposure to some of this, but sort of realizing building trade and tools are totally different. For example, I can't recall seeing marking gauges at the big box stores nor dovetail saws, but pull saw would work as well, right?
Great video. Can a sliding mitre saw be used to cut out the same mortise ? You can set a depth gauge on these saws to limit the cross cut depth, just make a series of close parallel cross cuts and then hammer the remaining wood strips to get to a trench. Base of trench must be flat, thus saw arm must be stable. What do you say ? Super sharp Diablo blade needed too. Hitachi 12 inch.Sliding saw ?
Probably my favourite joint mate but on my mitre Saw, I know that that goes against the grain of hand tool Woodworkers however it’s maximised surface space for Glue up 👍👍👍
Thanks for this. What about risk of expansion of the wood across its width? The joint constrains the wood - could it cause stresses and cracking?
Nice, anyone have tips for if you over cut the lap margins? Could you just cram shims in there?
How would one add a 3rd piece sticking out of this cross (i.e. pointing up when the cross is flat on the table)?
i like joints they make me calm
Really enjoy your videos! I’ve got to admit though, every time you say cramp where I would say clamp, I get a virtual brain cramp....😜
Another great vid Matt. I'd like to try making one of these but I don't have a Jesus pen - would it be okay to use the one I pinched from work?
where do i get such a saw!!
09:26 why not keep using the mallet and chisel to get into the line?
Step one : Have perfectly square material. This is the part I struggle with :(
Step 2: Make a perfect joint. See how easy it is?
Hola, What is the name of the hand tool from minute 08:40? Thank you.
Router plane
I have always tried to use a machine to aid joint cutting in most circumstances but your videos have kind of made me realise for a couple of one off joints it’s less messing about just to hit the hand tools , and way more satisfying! Thanks!
Just curious - Why not use the square to mark both cut lines?
Just in case the wood you are marking around is ever so slightly out of parallel. Sorry forgot to mention that in the video!
would it make the cutline move in a tiny bit to make it too tight in the end? referencing from the square on one side gave the amount of wood remaining to enable the compression fit right?
wont expansion crack that joint because it's so tight?
Good work on woods, less talking
who else is watching for year nine wood tech
Ayyyeee
Got the more whack whack, now where's the less yack yack❓
I have to watch a cross halving joint video for homework :v
great lesson, but could use better lighting. Too many shadows.
Can you make me one for the loss of my son. I would like to place one with his name where the accident happened.
Of course, through the magic of non-linear editing it's also very easy to film whacking the joint together, film whacking it apart again, then whack it together with glue and film the closeup. Not that I don't believe you, just that I don't understand what your point about whacking it apart was ;)
where on earth do u all u guys get flat/square/true wood? w/o having those u can't realistically do any decent woodworking
Jesus Pen. Lol
Cross halving joint, more like you make me CROSS, matt Estela quit RUclips now
Less talking please.
So cringy how you say timber.
