I commend you on the content in each of your videos. Just the right amount of detail and no wasted time. Your woodworking perfection is admirable. Using a bit of air to blow water and debris clear when cleaning up fresh glue joints is a great general tip that I will incorporate into my glue ups. Thank you.
Darrell...thank you for another detailed video. A few videos back, you described your toothbrush protocol for cleaning up glue. I had never even thought about using a toothbrush, much less a jar full. Thank your for solid useful tips. Now ive got to get a couple of packs of cheap toothbrushes.
Darrell kudos to your work and video efforts. Having worked in the trades and produced cabinetry commercially it's a pleasure actually finding a woodworking channel that is worth watching (not the norm with the current Woodworking RUclips influenecers), BTW I'll be happy to never see another live edge resin table video pop up on my screen. :)
Thank you so much,Michael. I agree with you on the resin tables! In fact I have a new book coming out in the fall and I have something to say about those tables!
@@DarrellPeartFurnitureMaker I can imagine, they will have a limited life not only in fad, maintenance, and construction. I'll keep an eye out for your book.
@@DarrellPeartFurnitureMaker Hey Darrell, for me anyways, the biggest advantage is if I miss some squeeze out in the splines, I can still remove it easily with cold water after it has dried. You have a pretty good system for getting rid of the squeeze out, and I am going to try it soon. There are a lot of other advantages to hide glue and when making "fine furniture" I always seem to use it for those advantages.
When you use the toothbrush and water to remove the squeeze out glue, are you not worried about the glue being forced into the wood grain and then showing up during the finish process ?.
Hi Sandy, The bushings avoid the problem of the bearing leaving a mark on the wood. The spline is close to being end grain on all sides. End grain blows out easily - climb cutting greatly reduces the chance of blow out.

Thank you,,William. Getting that right mix is something I worry about.

Every time I go to the dentist they give me a new tooth brush - same for my wife. The old ones go to the shop.

Very thorough videos. Thank you
thank you, Bill
Another great video Darrell. Have you ever considered using hide glue?
Hi Guy, I am not familiar with using hide glue. Would there be some advantages in this situation?

The wet toothbrush waters down the glue to the point where that's not a problem. I've been doing it for many years and never an issue.
Darrell…First I have seen of guide bushings being used in a router table. Wow. But why do a climb cut? What is the advantage for this application?
