  • In this video I will show you the prosses of wood bending with a technique called Kerf Bending / cutting. Typically kerf cuts are done with a table saw, miter saw, or track saw, but in this video I will show you how to do them BETTER using a router! At the same time i will be making 2 beautiful curved floating shelves!. By no means did it come out perfect but I am extremely happy with the results!

    Next time you go to bend the material… have a template set up and fastened down, that you can clamp to. This will allow you to keep one hand free to hold your iron.
    BTW… drape a wet rag over your miter cut area and keep the iron over them as you bend.. keeps the wood from drying and infuses the grain with steam.
    I do this every day… I build cabinets for private jets.

    Gorgeous! I’ve never seen anyone use that bit to do kerf bending, but it makes perfect sense. You need so much less wood fill than using a circular saw. I think maybe you could make it a little safer by just plunging one quarter inch of the router per pass and doing each kerf over 3 passes. I worry that the skinny CNC bit is more prone to break with high friction. Overall you’re a boss and I loved this video and subbed

    I bought an 18 degree router bit to do this very thing. (5 cuts = 90 degrees) I decided I preferred an odd number of cuts because that allows me to use a cut as the center. I also did the math to figure out the bend radius in order to account for the gain in material length. Glad to see someone beat me to proof of concept!

Figure out the circumference of the circle, 1/4 of the circle, 90 degrees, should give you the length of the curve. Subtract that length from the value of measuring the mid points to the edge of the box. If this is completely unclear, which it probably is, because I'm no math teacher, let me know and I'll see if I can do a better job of explaining the process.

    Gotta say this is the first time I've seen someone attempt to do kerf bending on solid hardwood instead of plywood. Your solution is nothing short of brilliant, giving a nice clean and even result. The kerfs are nearly invisible, compared to the traditional methods, and if you wanted to, you could get rid of the remaining faceting inside and out with a bit of sanding. Nicely done and you've got a new subscriber. Thanks for sharing!

    One suggestion to help with the cracking issue. Guitar builders have to deal with this a lot, as we bend wood all the time. One thing we frequently do is to use a piece of aluminum flashing that is bigger than the bend we are doing and hold that against the wood, supporting it for the bend. We are usually doing that against a hot pipe of some kind, but I don't see why it wouldn't work here, too. You would need to clamp the work piece to the bench, but then use the flashing against the outside part of the bend and use IT instead of just bending the wood by itself. It backs up the fibers in the wood and helps prevent cracking. I hope I explained that well enough to make sense.
    Nice project, it came out well. But definitely use Titebond I for light woods. In fact, I use it for almost everything. III has issues on some woods and in some situations. I is just about perfect unless you need waterproofing.

    • @willmorrison1022
      @willmorrison1022 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@Tibyon I tend to only use I, though for some things I use III. The thing that I read about years ago, and I can't verify that this is true, is that II has a bit of an issue with creep when used in an under pressure situation. As musical instruments are always under pressure, that is an issue. I don't know for a fact that this is an actual issue, but I do know a lot of instrument builders who won't use II for that very reason.
      I gives plenty of strength, it's pretty well accepted that it will provide a joint stronger than the wood itself, so that is not an issue. Plus, instruments tend to have to be repaired, and using a moisture resistant glue for such cases is NOT a good idea. III would be a total disaster in that situation, and that is why a LOT of luthiers still use hot hide glue for instruments like violins. The instrument is designed to be taken apart and repaired, and it's expected that it WILL be taken a part at some time. Using a waterproof glue in this case would be HORRIBLE and cause your name to be cured for generations.
      Choosing your glue properly is really important in some situations. Choosing the wrong one can be seriously detrimental.

    - A single wrap of glass fiber cloth with epoxy on the outside can make it much stronger.

      Theoretically that would work, but trying to get a perfect wedge (one saw kerf wide at the bottom where a straight kerf is too wide, and tapering up to zero at the top) would be damn near impossible, especially since you'd have to cut the wedges ACROSS the board if you wanted the grain in them to match the bent piece.

    @NautilusGuitars 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Awesome video and awesome results! As a luthier who deals with bending wood on the daily, I have some tips that might make things easier in the future.
    Main thing is heating the area you're bending, but keeping it saturated with water/steam. Instead of heating the wood directly with the iron, soak the wood, letting it sit for at least a few minutes, add a bit more water, then cover the surface with aluminum foil before using the iron. This will help keep the moisture from escaping. I'd try to add heat for at least a few minutes before bending. This will really soften the lignin and let the fibers slip past one another while bending. It's important to let the water soak and penetrate, and also not evaporate from the wood. It's not the water itself that matters, but its ability to transfer heat deeper into the wood. As soon as the water is gone, the heat is only superficial, so you want it to stay as deep in the wood as possible.
    Second tip is to use some sort of flexible metal to assist the bend on the outer side. Best material is thin shim stock/spring steel because it wont kink, but any thin and flexible metal like flashing will do. Just make sure it's always in contact with the area being bent. This supports the outer fibers, greatly reducing their ability to fray/split or otherwise come loose. Watch some violin/guitar side bending videos to get a good look at what I mean and it will make sense.
    Hope this helps! As soon as my new shop is done, I'll be making some of these. I was just sitting out there contemplating what kind of shelving I want to do. This video made the decision for me!

      @CarlYota ปีที่แล้ว +1

      But because there are no gaps the wood glue creates a strong bond. The piece is effectively solid wood in this case. This should mean you can aggressively sand that outer layer once it’s cured to make it perfectly smooth. That’s something you can’t do if you have gaps because the outer layer is what holds it all together. It’s similar to how they turn bowls.

    I have a couple questions - please forgive my ignorance:
    How deep are you making those cuts? Looks like you leave about 1/16th" of material to bend?
    How do you determine the number of cuts? Is it simply a math problem based on the angle (6.2 degrees taper / degrees of arc)? Or was it trial and error?
    I think both of those questions may be related - Deeper cuts = More bend?
    Other things I'm thinking - cuts wider apart or closer together? How does that change things?
    (I guess I SHOULD have paid more attention in Geometry)

    • @JARMade
      @JARMade  2 ปีที่แล้ว +49

      All good questions,
      I left about 1/16 of material left
      With 1 cut I was getting about 13°-14° bend so I just had to divided 180 by 13 or 14 to figure out how many cuts to make. I tried both on scrap plywood and found out 13 cuts works for a 180° bend
      I did try spacing them @ different measurements and what I found out that if you space them farther and closer together the only thing that will change is how big your bend (curve) is. (ALSO THE BIGGER THE SPACING THE MORE NOTICIABLE THE KERFS ARE ON THE WOOD)
      If you space them 1/4" apart you end up with about a 2" bend from top to the bottom of the outside of the wood.
      if you space them out 1" apart you end up with about a 10" bend. same thing from the top to the bottom of the outside of the wood
      I did record all this and planed on putting it in the video but it didn't make the cut because people lose interest way to fast for stuff like this haha. Let me know if I missed anything

      Did you determine the required taper using a particular formula or trial and error? If there is a formula which determines the required taper based on the board thickness and the dimensions of the curve what is it? Thanks.

    @ZopiloteMachine ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you! I've been thinking this should be experimented with for years and found nothing. One potential addition to make it safer, especially on deeper cuts, would be to use a different router bit or a table saw/miter saw/track saw set at the correct angle and cut twice to hog out most of the kerf, then the little carving bit to just finish off the very bottom for that nice sharp point to the kerf.

    Great technique, brilliant to make v-kerfs this way, and yes those are some great looking shelves. I plan to use this on for a detail on a "vintage" cabinet design I've been working on.
    You could calculate the number of cuts by dividing 180 (or whatever number of degrees for the angle you are trying to make) by the angle of your router bit - or the reverse, determine the angle of the router bit for the number of kerfs you want. With that 3.6 degree bit you would have to make 20 cuts in order to bend 180°. Alternatively to the router technique, set your saw to the required cut angle and cut from each side to make a v-kerf. It’s trickier and you’d need a rather precise jig to line up the cuts though. I will be trying this.
