      @@508homes I am going to build a 4x8 wood shed out of the deadfall in the forest behind my house (tons and tons of it out there). Commercial lumber too expensive right now (!!) so I am going to cut lap joints into the round wood deadfall that I harvest to facilitate the joints between the pieces of wood.

    Enjoyed, about to build a 4 post bed frame using 4x4 and figured this would be the technique I'll use instead of lag bolts ruining end grain or brackets being unsightly and potentially dangerious if someone scrapes against one.
    I do have a job site table saw but working with 7' long pieces looks like the skill saw will still be the way to go for any of the middle area cut aways. Maybe the end cuts I can do on the table saw.

    • @508homes
      @508homes  16 дней назад +1

      Great idea! That will be a sturdy and clean looking piece of furniture. Working with such a long piece of material definitely lends itself to using this method over the table saw.

  • @MWelby65
    @MWelby65 Год назад +2

    Nice video, thanks! What about when you need the joint at the very end of the 4 x 4? Can it sill be cut out the same way? I was thinking about renting or buying a miter saw to do this. I'm guessing that make it much easier, but would prefer not to have to buy another bulky tool.

    • @508homes
      @508homes  Год назад +2

      Yes, you can cut it the same way on the end of the board. Just take your chisel and tap a clean line on the end of the board so it doesn’t split thru. A table saw can do this job much easier than a miter saw, but a circular saw is the cheapest option and takes up the least amount of space for storage which is why I made this video! Hope this helps.

    • @MCbusiness2

      Miter saw actually can’t even do this. You would need a specific kind, a pulling miter saw.
