    One of the problems with an advisory service is potentially if anything went wrong you might be considered liable. Of course you can often get insurance for such work but in some cases you have to keep insuring yourself for many years to keep the cover going just in case you are accused of mis advising if something goes wrong down the line. I make mounts for museum displays and it’s pretty niche. When I set up I was asked by a few museums if I would train their staff and found out about this insurance/ liability potential and it put me off because a lot of what I do is actual hands on stuff and for that I need a different insurance. things are never straightforwards these days! It might not apply to you but worth being aware of in case. Love the channel by the way.

      @SME_Ste 5 месяцев назад +1

      Theres an electrical channel who offers the advice contact like you mention Oli, he started it at a monthly cost he thought as enough and had to double it after the first few weeks due to the amount of time he was spending on calls and messaging.

    As for consultancy, think VERY carefully before going down that rabbit hole. When your part is done that's when it enters no mans land and if things go wrong you might become the scape goat.

    I'm not sure a pay for consultancy is what you want to set up. I'm almost certain it would suck all the fun out of the job for you. I could see something like the wood whisper guild being successful though. If I was in your position I would probably start with a free to access forum of some kind, stick ads on it and it would be self funding (probably). It would give you a taste of having a community to interact with. You can then move towards offering more pay for services as you see fit.
    As for the video, great stuff. I really wish you'd made this series a few years ago when I was building sash windows and doors for our house :-). I'm really pleased to see how much I got right considering I'm self taught.

    The oft unappreciated skill of the joiner is the ability to see ahead where problems will arise and being able to resolve an error so no one can spot the mistake.
    I work in education consulting and the problem is where do you draw the line on advice, the person giving advice as one thing in mind but the receiver often expects something quite different, in the end you’ll end up working for a pittance. Generally some clients just set out to bleed you dry. By all means go for it but be very precise where the boundaries lie - same precision as when planning a job.

  • @jeffbourne6015
    @jeffbourne6015 5 месяцев назад +3

    This episode detailing gluing up the bespoke door was great to observe. You certainly have to be methodical and fully appreciate of the ‘open’ time for the adhesives. The use of simple timber blocks to ensure absolute alignment of the glazing bars was typical of your wonderful attention to detail as was your method of preventing racking during the disassembly of particular component parts during the glue up. Each part of this series has given us tremendous insight into bespoke joinery (machine and hand tool methods) and has been highly educational and inspiring in so many ways. We are most grateful to you for continuing to share your passion and wonderful skills.

    The ipa spray works so well for cleaning up squeeze out from the pu glue. It can be so difficult to clean up once the glue has all gone off not to mention the time taken. It was a good honest glue up video - complete with the moment of panic when you realised the rail was wrong way around 😂 we have all been there!

    Great video, When we made the doors in the joinery shop, we used to use a lump hammer for driving the wedges. The reason for this was it took less of a swing to drive them in and therefore less chance of missing the wedge and hitting the door. Loved the process and I’m looking forward to seeing the end result

      @mickymidnight1 5 месяцев назад

      Sorry to be a smart arse.... but I think Oliver mentioned why he uses that glue. I think he said that he has more confidence in it in the long run, particularly (I suppose ) as it is an outside or external door, he would expect the timber to move or fluctuate over several seasons. He implied that this glue has a little flexibility and therefore would be less likely to fail over time.

    • @BradshawJoinery
      @BradshawJoinery  5 месяцев назад +3

      Itll take some time and perseverance to get used to it but i wouldn't do back to runny glue now. Nitrile gloves are necessary, IPA cleaner too. some are better than others and they all vary! Cartridge type is alot easier than the bottled stuff.

    I’m sure your skills in problem solving, thinking in your feet and adapting and overcoming issues on the job are all down to growing up on the farm. Like you said, you have also been doing this for schools so you have build up a wide range of experience and technique that you draw on every day.
    Those two combined have made you into the master craftsman you are. The other thing farming adds is that ability to endure the relentless nature of running a physically demanding business and keeping up to date with the admin side of things. You can see it in your brother too!

    When you screwed the blocks into the glazing bar section and set the temp panel on, I laughed out loud, that idea was sick. I didn’t know how you were going to get the rails back off cleanly. Also, the glue up error was good TV. I’ve been there many times. Not the exact situation, but many similar. Minnect is a service that might work for connecting with people for advice. A podcaster I listen to made the site. I haven’t used it but might be worth looking at. Thanks for the videos.

  • @ep1981
    @ep1981 5 месяцев назад +1

    Spot on re the PU glue, there's no comparison for anything that might face the elements. Titebond, etc., even the 'exterior' ones, will eventually break down if exposed to moisture. PU glue won't. Obviously this is all being painted and shouldn't ever see the sort of moisture that would trouble a Titebond-type glue, but for proper exterior projects (benches, planters, etc.) there's no comparison in my experience.

    Great tip with the solvent cleaner. I’ll have to try that. I’ve always just scraped the worst off and then cleaned up with a chisel the next day. Gluing up a big door is always a stressful time, you did well to keep your cool when that bottom rail was back to front. Do you think when the glue has started to dry like it had, that the strength is compromised? I keep thinking I should do some strength tests to see if it is a weaker joint than one put together when the glue is straight out of the tube.

    Hey Oli, another great vid again,really showing how glue ups can go, especially the mild panic.
    The pre glue up of rails that’s the best,imagine the stress of having to pull those apart if you did one big glue up.
    I always do component glue up as much possible might take a little more time but so worth it to get the rails straight.
    I must admit I use laser measure internally to get accurate measurements instead of tape measure just bit less fiddly when on time constraints.all good though.🙏👍

    Online consulting may cause that you will add a multiplication factor to the mistakes made by people who are looking for your help, because they had made mistakes. What I mean is you cannot control all the circumstances the same way you do it in your workshop.
    Once a year or once a six months 1-week long joinery course for 10-15 people may be a better idea.
    The title is a bit too clickbaity and with your proficiency you don't need click-baits.

    With your glue-up near f@#k-up, do you normally label your pieces ? I'm sure I've seen others do it, and I worried in a few other vids when you were pulling apart and re-fitting, that an error might occur. Bit of different coloured tape on either side of each piece wouldn't harm, would it?

      I know exactly why you say that. But I think it is all to do with camera angles and perspective. Have a look at the end of the video, like at 23 mins and 27 seconds. At that point the Door looks to be a good 6 inches taller than Oliver, who I am guessing is around the 6ft mark

    Great tip with the solvent cleaner. I’ll have to try that. I’ve always just scraped the worst off and then cleaned up with a chisel the next day. Gluing up a big door is always a stressful time, you did well to keep your cool when that bottom rail was back to front. Do you think when the glue has started to dry like it had, that the strength is compromised? I keep thinking I should do some strength tests to see if it is a weaker joint than one put together when the glue is straight out of the tube.
