Just followed your video and made a nice arch for a last minute backyard wedding. Your help is much appreciated. I struggled with the wood inserts but just settled with extra screws. Again thank you
Congrats man. Getting married, seeing your wife come down the aisle, and having a partner for all of lifes challenges is the best. All those emotions hitting at once. Tell your wife she looked beautiful, and I wish you two the best guys!
Hey man really happy for you! Congratulations! Btw, you’re one of the first woodworking youtubers I followed when I started woodworking, almost exactly 1yr ago because I was looking up a router jig for flattening a large board. Fast forward to now, I actually just started my own channel. I definitely have you to thank for in helping me getting started! Keep up the good work!
At this point it must sound like a broken record but again, congratulations!!!. May the two of you have many many happy years together and a strong marriage all together.
Good question - I meant I should have rotated the miter saw blade left to right but keep it perpendicular to the wood, rather than using the back miter bevel to create the angle and cut them down at an angle. Hope that makes sense?
Everything already fit together with the dowels, so the three components came together as a dry fit super easily and then I just brought my impact driver to my venue to screw and unscrew the wood screws in each joint. I’ll add, you don’t even need dowels at joints if you’re using screws, it just helped line things up.
Congratulations to you both on your big day. Your Arbor looks great and very solid as well, i was wondering if the dowels made any difference to the build, as when you were screwing it all together it looked a better fit, if that was due to the dowels, screws or both. Congratulations to you both again. Barry (ENG)
A great question - I think in reality they were strong enough as I didn't add screws till later and I could carry the pieces around no problem before it, but I'd probably recommend using two instead of one next time. However, this thing was just damn hard to clamp - to your point - the screws really helped bring it all together. If you didn't need to break it down at all, you could countersink screws and plug with dowels to make it look perfectly clean. Cheers!
Congratulations to you both!!! I want something very similar for my wedding this coming October and my fiancé sent me this video. Bold question, would you be willing to rent us your beautiful arbor for our big day? We live in Inland Empire, SoCal.
It's the 1/2" jig from Rockler - I think it's like $20 and another small amount for the case (you can get a whole set as well which is a bit more pricey but still a great deal).

As strong as that arbor!
The Cutting Bored hopefully stronger
Nice Job. Congrats. What did you do with it after the Wedding?
I rented it to one person, and its been sitting outside on a side yard disassembled at my family's place for about four years
Nice! At 1:25 you said that you wished that you had kept the saw perpendicular to the cutting surface of and just angled it. What do you mean by that?
Good question - I meant I should have rotated the miter saw blade left to right but keep it perpendicular to the wood, rather than using the back miter bevel to create the angle and cut them down at an angle. Hope that makes sense?
congrats to you
Thanks!
Beautiful job! How did u assemble so easy onsite? That's my worry and easiest way to transport.
Everything already fit together with the dowels, so the three components came together as a dry fit super easily and then I just brought my impact driver to my venue to screw and unscrew the wood screws in each joint.

sir ,your job is tops. can you give me the lenght oof the timber that you used to make this arbour. cos I want to make one also. Thanks... stay safe.
They’re just 4x4s that are 8’ long from Home Depot

I just discovered your channel because I am about to build one of these! GREAT video, just subbed. Btw how do you like that ryobi 18v sander?
good luck! the bench sander you mean? its solid - i'd recommend it. I wish the disc was bigger but its good for what it is.
What brand dowling jig did you use?
It's the 1/2" jig from Rockler - I think it's like $20 and another small amount for the case (you can get a whole set as well which is a bit more pricey but still a great deal).
6:45? You sure that's the best "mostly because" you could come up with Zach?
Congratulations to ya both. But your video could have included the angles you came up with. But your young and you’ll learn as you grow.
You mean like when I very clearly explain at the 1:08 mark that I cut angles at 25.7 degrees?
