Nice! I also prefer to clean the shoulders with a wide bevel edge chisel. I find shoulder planes a bit hard to use and prone to chip the end grain. Any reason for not using a router plane to clean the tenon? Since I am low on marking gauges, sometimes I use the router to do the markings as well. I then put the stop block, and clean all the tenons in shallow passes. Just try it out and see if that works for you.
Nice tutorial, Tom. Thank you!
That saw chatter… wtf is that? I get that from time to time, particularly when ripping woods like pine that have fairly tough annular rings but really soft in-between wood. Not sure what species you were working with, likely a hardwood, but just wondering what you figured the cause was.
Oh wait… that was a crosscut, wasn’t it?
And, of course the saw will jump and marr the “keep” piece and never the waste piece. DoH!
Big “Hi” to Roubo! :)
Hi keep trying to watch bridle joint freeby to get an idea of your tuition and I lose as it stops with a circle……try other stuff and find 404
Hard work to try and watch your really superb work
A good wood worker is only as good as he can fix his mistakes.
Indeed-; )
Why not cut the joint before you cut the groove? Then you don’t have to wrestle with that void.
Definitely an option. I just prefer this way so I don’t have to hold parts after joinery/tenons are cut.
Less likely to break…
Thank you very much for doing that for me Tom. I always pick up a lot. A question on sawing when you set your free hand as a guide to start the cut are you dropping your fingernail into the knife wall? Also, can you tell us a bit about where we can find the Japanese Floats?
Thanks again.
Thanks John-
my pleasure!
As for the sawing technique, I’m just placing the tip of my fingernail next to the saw- maybe it sometimes goes into the knife wall, but I’m not aware if it’s intentional-; )
and the Japanese floats were a gift from Matthew at Workshop Heaven in the UK. I’m pretty sure they sell them.
cheers!
Lee valley also sells those Japanese floats.
Good to know-
thanks!
I’m writing this comment 37 minutes in…… Great Episode – Specific task – good instruction – mentioning the nuances – good pace / rhythm to the episode …… more please
Thanks
Matt
Thanks Matt!
I agree Matt. I like to see it in kind of real time so I know what I might come up against as a novice/intermediate. I can go back and re watch this and it’ll be really useful.
