Hi Grat you can do it too!!!! its not rocket science!! make some practice cuts on scrap wood you will be amazed how quickly you improve and take it easy nobody woke up skilled it takes a little time and your first creations dont have to be perfect make stuff and be proud that you did it yourself!!! Happy woodworking David
@@RusticDavid Rustic David Thank you for the encouragement. There's a simple plant stand that uses a cross lap joint (for which you have also made a video), so I'll practice with that project.
Great! Go for it!! dont be afraid of negative feed back just ask the critic what have they made with their hands recently!!! enjoy the process and start another project Best wishes David
I think the tool which is saw in this case has to be sharp. I tried many times but what happens is if its not cutting quickly we get tired and then it stsrt going wrong. ):
Im so happy I found your videos. I'm a 62 yr old female, whose worked as a carpenter's helper for my brother for the last 5 yrs. I've grown to love the craft but, jobsites are so busy he doesn't have time to explain the " how to's" I want to learn. Your videos and simple instructions are so easy to follow, and now im making my own wood projects. Thank you, for your help. Debbie Doozit
I’m a young female who’s just getting into wood working and I enjoy your videos. They’re straight to the point, simple, and very informative. Thanks for all the help, please keep the videos coming!👍🏽
Mannnn your videos are the best. Absolutely the most enjoyable and easy to understand woodworking videos I've seen yet! I'm beginning to enjoy working with wood thanks to you Thank you!
I really enjoy your videos. I'm just starting out making rustic/recycled wood shelves, side tables, shoe racks and planters etc. Your videos are helping me take things up a level. Thanks for sharing your expansive knowledge.
First class video with excellent tips for the amateur wood worker...I used to dislike woodwork when I went to high school, now retired I love it and have become fairly adventurous ...Now the opportunities available for learning these simple skills from youtube are brilliant, thanks for taking the time to help us...👍
Hi Jim Thank you for your comment i appreciate your feedback,id love to see what you're making do you use Facebook or Instagram?Happy Woodworking David
Hi David , thanks for your comments I appreciate them...No my friend I'm no longer on facebook, my account was hacked and got a bit embarrassing with friends of mine...So I decided to keep away from social media, old school I'm afraid...However I'm subscribed to your channel and will keep an eye open for your future videos...By the way adventurous to me is building a workbench and a few benches which is enjoyable...👍
Nice video...good info...but what particularly impresses me is that you reply to comments and questions. I am just learning and I really appreciate you and others who take the time to pass on their knowledge rather than being snobbish about it.

Grateful to you sir im quite good at metal work, welding and mechanics but really suck at woodwork. But im learning a lot about woodworking from your videos
Legend. Nice to see and have found a carpenter with suggestions for hand tools and standard craft, look forward to seeing your other videos. This one was very useful for me, needing to make frames and a saw is all i have! lol
Hi there Storyteller, Stress No more ! It certainly doesn’t need to be complicated, practice on some scrap wood and allow imperfections, each one will be a little bit better than the first.Happy Woodworking David

This is what I would call a real DIY. Thank you for sharing your skills & tecnique. Really informative. I learnt something. Please keep doing more such videos. Thank you.
@@RusticDavid, yes a sharp chisel is key. Probably best to learn to hone a blade before attempting to use said blade. Then one will learn aspects of respect, patience, angles and force. Care for your tools and they will serve you well.
Hi Janice yes YT is reading our thoughts quite amazing how it learns what you want to watch!!!any way im glad you found my videos good luck with your project Happy woodworking David
Hi Rommel thanks for your feedback yes its perfect for frames the stretched canvas pulls the joints together making a very good frame do you paint? youll save money making your own frames maybe sell some too !!! Happy Woodworking David

great videos, i like how you only use simple tools. Would love to see a video of you making a simple shoe rack using only simple tools as this will be my next project.
Thank you Eric theres more on the way and please check out my channel for previously posted video’s If there’s a topic you’d like me to cover id love to hear Happy Woodworking David
What a great video sir. Thank you so much for your insight in how to make a bridal joint, not that I even knew what a bridal joint was,☺️ I’ve just starting working with wood. I wanted to get a nice big square block of wood drill through the middle to make a lamp as I have lovely wooden furniture with metal rustic handles in my room. Thank you so much, now I know exactly how to do a bridal joint myself, well I’ll give it my best shot I love the way you do it by hand, old school saw & chisel I’ll let you know how I got on. Brilliant 👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks again John
Rustic David..... I will do, I think I missed my calling I love working with wood. Just made a really nice cat pole 6 for high with a 8x8 square piece cut out & wrapped in carpet. I would have done a video myself but maybe wait till I get a bit better. I really do prefer hand saws to electrical saws. Kind regards John
Btw if the hole in the block is for the cable and your drill is short you have 2 options or extend the drill either buy extension or weld it to round stock or take 2 pieces of wood and cut a groove in one you can use a chisel if you have one and glue the 2 blocks together creating a hole through th middle
Thank you shiffer shiffer try on a few off cuts first then do the real thing if its a bit sloppy at first you can fill any gaps with a thin veneer (slice) of wood Happy woodworking David
Simple, direct, easy, (for you). I can't cut straight by hand if I tried, and I have been trying since I was a teen and now I am 67!LOL! Seriously, loved the video, and the simplicity. Gave a thumbs up.
Use your eye to line everything up, square and perpendicular, a finger to rest against as a guide and be mindful of your arm movements to be straight and true. stop and check all prior remarks every few strokes until you a re confident and on track! You can do it.
@@steevo9656 Amazing !!!!you give the most confidence inspiring comment ive ever read !!!!! Thank you for your great input!!!!!! if you dont already teach you should!!!! best wishes David
@@RusticDavid , thanks David. You just inspired a lot of confidence in me too. Maybe we are two kind souls making our way in the world for the good of all! I am actually unemployed and in poverty, maybe I should look into getting a license to be an educator or something. I used to work in joinery, love being creative with wood, and all things. Anyway, all the best and thanks for your kindness.
stee vo Did you ever consider being self employed if you know joinery,or be a handyman meet people do what you like and get paid! My videos started bringing in some a little money that’s also a possibility if you give instruction on TH-cam im sure people will love your attitude I’m in Israel and here there’s a market teaching kids after school you only need a few basic tools and a table! Anyway I am sure you will find your way all the very best be in touch David
Hi Trevor thank you for your feedback ,give it a go on some scrap you'll see its not difficult with a few practice cuts,are there any techniques you would like me to cover in a video?Happy woodworking David
Hi David,thank you so much for your reply. there is a technique I would love you to do a video on and that would be how to cut a perfect circle from a piece of about 3/4inch plywood with a circumference of about 3 inches using hand tools if possible.The reason is I am currently making a whirligig and need to make a hub for the propeller. I do have a jigsaw but is getting a bit old now and doesn't cut a very edge no matter what blade I put in, I really should just buy a new one but was wondering if its possible to do by hand. All the very best...Trev.
Hi Trevor hmmmm! Do you have a semi decent hand saw? If so draw the circle on a piece of thick enough wood for your hub then drill a hole in the center screw the piece on the edge of a table or something secure then saw off straight lines that touch the edge of the circle keep doing this and rotating the work piece you will end up with a rough hexagon then use a rasp or sandpaper to round the corners continue removing corners until it’s round it’s interesting I will give it a try too and video it best of luck David
Alternatively you can buy a coping saw very little expense if you don’t know what one is google it now you have given me a great topic for a video “ways to cut circles with hand tools “ Thanks I will make it asap 🙏🙂
Hi Justit Greetings from Israel, Iam happy you have learned something new from my videos i am uploading weekly so click on the bell for notifications Happy woodworking David
Hi Andre Thank you for your question,do you mean divide the waste in two in the female side of the joint ?i f so I haven’t found it necessary but if it helps in removing the waste go for it . If I didn’t answer your question let me know Happy Woodworking David
Thanks a lot for making this with simple equipment we have in house. I have a question. What is the advantage of going for this Bridle joint except joining them with nails? This take more wood than joining with nail also?
As long as recycling furniture the basic technique of corner joint is well explained systematically though it's an ancient technology it is still in use wherever wood is the medium. What about other modern materials ?Say .. MD, plywood and fibreboard . Will you please make any video or suggest some links. Thanks.
Hi Avi industrial sheet materials I think for the hobbyist is best joined with screws and pilot holes or a biscuit jointer ,I haven’t made any videos on the subject yet but I intend to meanwhile watch videos about kitchen cabinet construction Thanks for your feedback Happy Woodworking David

Hello my name is Zena. I LOVE your Diy videos! You explains everything so easy! Yes i subscribed to your channel. I don't know anything about woodworking, so I'll be asking you things as i do my own projects. Thank you so much for taking your time explaining everything in details. I'll be looking you up, when I start my first project; making a sturdy woodworking table. What do you buy to collect the dust as you work (i don't have a garage, I'm doing all my things in my basement)?
Hi Zena Thanks for your comment do you have a plan for your work table? To begin with you can simply sweep or use the vacuum cleaner if you use jig saw you might be able to connect it to your vacuum or there are bigger vacuum cleaners for workshops that can connect to your tools anyway I look forward to hearing how you progress Happy Woodworking David

Hi Trevor hmmmm! Do you have a semi decent hand saw? If so draw the circle on a piece of thick enough wood for your hub then drill a hole in the center screw the piece on the edge of a table or something secure then saw off straight lines that touch the edge of the circle keep doing this and rotating the work piece you will end up with a rough hexagon then use a rasp or sandpaper to round the corners continue removing corners until it’s round it’s interesting I will give it a try too and video it best of luck David
Ps if you have a clamp use it to keep wood from turning whilst sawing be safe David

Thanks a lot for making this with simple equipment we have in house. I have a question. What is the advantage of going for this Bridle joint except joining them with nails? This take more wood than joining with nail also?

As long as recycling furniture the basic technique of corner joint is well explained systematically though it's an ancient technology it is still in use wherever wood is the medium. What about other modern materials ?Say .. MD, plywood and fibreboard . Will you please make any video or suggest some links. Thanks.

How about a video on how to build that awesome wooden vice?????
Hello my name is Zena. I LOVE your Diy videos! You explains everything so easy! Yes i subscribed to your channel. I don't know anything about woodworking, so I'll be asking you things as i do my own projects. Thank you so much for taking your time explaining everything in details. I'll be looking you up, when I start my first project; making a sturdy woodworking table. What do you buy to collect the dust as you work (i don't have a garage, I'm doing all my things in my basement)?
Hi Zena Thanks for your comment do you have a plan for your work table? To begin with you can simply sweep or use the vacuum cleaner if you use jig saw you might be able to connect it to your vacuum or there are bigger vacuum cleaners for workshops that can connect to your tools anyway I look forward to hearing how you progress Happy Woodworking David
thank you for the information.
Hi Ben you are very welcome I hope it helps you Happy Woodworking David
