    The RUclips algorithm works in misterious and unpredictable ways. Oftentimes it seems to have lost all of its marbles, but every once in a blue moon it drags me to a channel like this one. Yes, this is what I want. Thank you, algorithm. You could have given this one to me sooner, but I am grateful nonetheless.

    I saw the Forgotten Tool and what was in the brackets and it peaked my interest. I have heard about these devices before but never seen one being made or even one in use.
    My 1st words when I saw it fully assembled were WOW, WOW, oh my days, that is beautifully made. The dovetails look so good too. I don't know what it is about Dovetail joints but I love the look of them when the colour of the end grain .. Brilliant build my friend. Really enjoy ur videos. I don't comment on many videos with woodworking over the last while but this one is a stunning build it has to be said. I enjoy watching great craftsmen and women at work..

      @@TheWoodCrafter1 I've enjoyed working in wood my whole life, and yet work metal, despite the fact it doesn't bend to the will quite so easily. I love to see fine craftmanship, it's disappearing from my country, but is still to be found. I make tooling for my work, and generally put it in wood boxes, for protection for life. I've never used such a form of saw, to perfectly set the height of dovetails, and have always labored trying to get them at "the same deck height", I think I might have to make one. I use very similar method and tooling, to mark out precise lines, shapes, on a surface plate, but never thought to use it to set cutting height, and keep it. I learn something new every day. I'd enjoy a couple weeks in your shop, or you in mine. We'd do well together. Semper Fidelis, John

    Well thought out project! And very beautifully crafted. A small tip that can help with reducing gaps in the dovetail joint is to cut with the saw around 1mm from the marking and then finish working up to the marking with a hand chisel. If your markings are perfect, so will the joint become. Although it takes slightly longer to do the finishing touches by hand chisel. The results become more precise, IF you have a steady hand, then a tablesaw saw where if it is misaligned by half a millimeter, it will show up on the end result. My personal opinion aside, great video!

    Marvelous; like a European cabinet makers shoulder vice, the bench screw is behind the movable jaw, so you can clamp dovetail boards at both a comfortable height [because there are no guide bars in the way like on an ordinary face vise], and you do not have to worry about the vise jaw wracking.

    Where can you get one of the saws shown around the 0:15 mark and what's it called? One of the top 3 vids I've seen and I can't recall the other 2. Mad skills you have. Kudos.

      The saw you have seen at 0:15 is made from a Japanese saw blade, there is another video on my channel where I show how I build it “how to cut perfect tenons on the miter jack”. I think such a saw is expensive to buy but easy to make, if you still want to buy one then search for “miter jack saw” good luck and thank you for your sweet comment 🤝

    Hi, great stuff, out of curiosity, what is your background? You do woodworking like a toolmaker. What are the approximate dimensions of the chairmaker's vise?
    Thanks for the videos!

      Thx, Matt, I studied Business and I work in supply chain field! My background has nothing to do with carpentry 🙂.
      This vise is 9.5” X 7” X 4”, stock thickness is 1 3/4”, nothing critical here though you can add some more inches if you don’t mind the weight and have enough space! Good luck 👍

    Really nice work. Is that like a portable shoulder vise?

    • @TheWoodCrafter1
      @TheWoodCrafter1  3 года назад

      Thank you, you can use this vise to hold the workpiece and use the miter jack saw to cut tenon shoulders in reference to the vise top surface. I have uploaded previous video on this channel showing something similar if you wish to check it out “how to cut perfect tenons on the miter jack “

    Nice demonstration. But what more does this vise have to offer than a tail vise?

    • @TheWoodCrafter1
      @TheWoodCrafter1  3 года назад

      If you constructed your tail vise dead square from all sides and square in reference to the top surface on all 4 sides to give you exact same cut on the 4 sides of the tenon you are cutting then yes they can do the same job except for the mobility! Just wondering how the tail vise will be constructed to meet these standards, or maybe that is just me .

    • @bethoughtprovoking
      @bethoughtprovoking 3 года назад

      The truth is that any functional vise has an acceptable degree of accuracy built into it; otherwise, it would serve no practical purpose as a tool. Consequently, anything beyond reasonably accurate is simply overkill for a vise. That said, you did build a robust vise, one that doubtless will last a lifetime. Nonetheless, I stand by my original query: What more does your vise have to offer? Apparently, it seems to come down to the advantage of mobility. Yet, as you’ll see in a moment, mobility can likewise be construed as a major disadvantage. In fact, one of the great benefits of incorporating a tail vise into a workbench is the added convenience of not having to bring one to the bench in the first place.
      Here are some problems with the concept of a bring-to-the-bench vise. First, consider that workbenches are built at the optimal height for doing handwork easily and comfortably. Your design, unfortunately, increases that optimal working height considerably; from the looks of it, your vise stands at least 6” off the bench surface. That’s not necessarily a bad thing; it could be that you want to get closer to your workpiece. But the truth is not everyone does. Next, the purported advantage of mobility is severely minimized by the realization that there is very little room to face your workpiece from either side of the vise. I could see myself standing there, cramped against the face of the bench, trying to get in line with my cut. Not exactly what I would consider an ideal work position for my back. Of course, you could clamp the vise to a corner of your bench and circumvent the problem entirely; but, in that case, why not just stick with the ideally-positioned and unobtrusive tail vise in the first place? Am I making sense?
      And, then, there’s the issue concerning the inherent bulkiness of the vise itself. Look at it. It’s massive! Imagine working in a busy shop and not being ready just yet to unclamp the vise. What a nuisance it would be, having a thing like that protrude from your bench! I don’t know about you, but I see that as clumsiness. In my opinion, it detracts from the work area’s efficiency.
      And, finally, the positioning of the vise is a limitation in itself. Needless to say, most of us have either cabinets, shelves, or drawers incorporated into the undersides of our benches. In woodworking, however, there are many instances in which a curved workpiece can only be clamped if there is clearance underneath the workbench. This problem is easily handled by the tail vise because of the overhang on the end of the bench.With your design, however, one can only perform such an operation if the vise is positioned on the end of the bench-not in front of it. Now, again, that might not be so bad, if that space is available. But what if it isn’t? More inconvenience….
      I believe accessories in the shop must be duly warranted. Sorry to say, but all you accomplished was to construct a well-functioning tail vise. I prefer to have mine incorporated into my bench.
      (N.B.: I can do the same kind of accurate clamping with a piece of paper in my vise, too.)

      @@bethoughtprovoking 🙂It is always a pleasure to read other opinions yet it offers a huge amount of shared experience, From what you wrote it shows that you are an experienced woodworker no doubts, I have no objections to your statement! I am just thinking how I will cut a tenon shoulder for a workpiece that is longer than the height of a workbench with a tail vise fitted on it? this may not be so common but that depends on what we are making.
