Amazing video! Yes, please create more videos like this! I was especially fascinated with the use of the compass and spheres in creative design. I would love to see more videos along the lines of the customizable s-curves for design. Subscribed!
@@ChadStanton Thank you so much for sharing your expertise through these videos! Channels like yours (and individuals like YOU) are what keep me coming back to TH-cam again and again. Wishing you all the best personally and professionally!
I am a retired carpenter. I have made many polygons of varies sizes. But I have never thought of your way of doing it. Much simpler and super quick. Keep it up Chad, Keep teaching. A lot of people can use your Ideas
Excellent stuff, Chad. If you have any more Geometry to help us getting better in wood crafting, please do make others like these... and thank you for taking the time!
I have Woodworkers burnout and have had for several months now, almost to the point of selling off my garage full of woodworking hand and power tools. Your well wrought geometry video while very informative has reawakened the curiosity that go me started in woodworking to begin with. Thanks Stan...I guess!
I'm so happy you are interested again. I started a series on Monday to help motivate people such as yourself. Check this out and see if you want to join us. th-cam.com/video/dWQh5pVsFpU/w-d-xo.html
Aloha Chad , great 'refresher' course on 'Geo' [ its been a few years since high school] . Aced my geo class , and these 'tricks' as you call them , made me valued as shop man . Now just happy to be on this side of the turf and not playing cards with Elvis .
I'm a woodworking teacher and I've seen that, many times, students will avoid more interesting projects because the setting up the lines for cutting seems overwhelming to them. The practice of using geometry to make that set up easier would be so beneficial to these students. I would love to see some more videos like this so that I can show them (and learn myself!). Especially some videos showing common shapes in wood projects. Great job guys!
Thank you. Yes, we will be doing more of this and will have it's one playlist soon for people to easily refer back to it. Did you see our second video? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
I just wanted to say how nice you video is. It made me think of when I first was learning about geometry in carpentry and how sometimes we can forget the rock solid old principles
Happy to do it. I try to show practical applications so it shows a clear use for it in our craft. Did you have chance to see our second one? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
This "angle" on woodworking (pardon the pun) is, as far as I know, totally unique & sorely needed. This episode just got me to subscribe to your channel. Please keep them coming. Thank you, Mario Salinas
This is great, and no one else seems to be covering geometry for carpentry on TH-cam. I'd like to see how to use geometry to cut and build a project from start to finish. Thank you!
Plus it looks impressive if the customer sees you using the compass verses a can. :-) Check out our weekly update videos on Monday. We will mention what the video on Friday's will be. Thanks for watching.
Definitely more! I watched this with an eye toward sending the link to some of my less geometry minded coworkers, but even I didn't know about the circle into thirds trick!
Awesome video. Please, more geometry! Not enough of this type of material on TH-cam or the internet for that matter. Really... You would think there would be more geometry instructionals geared towards woodworking... Anyway, Thanks a million for taking the time and making the effort! Great Videos!
Excellent! I've never had a mind for numbers, Deviders, story sticks, those accordion expanding things that show you points at equal distance on any length of stock... Anything that gets away from numbers and let's you figure without copying someone elses plans! Bring it! Where have you gone Joe Pythagoras?
Great stuff. Love to see more. I teach a course that is a combination of high school geometry and woodshop. It's great to hear of more ideas for projects and uses of geometry in woodworking.
Man this is such an awesome trick with so many uses! I don’t get to use it a whole lot so I have watched this video probably 20 times now to get a refresher!! The other video he did is handy as well! Probably the most useful woodworking video I’ve seen! 100 👍 if I could
Well this video has just made you one more subscriber. Extremely helpful as it’s been 30 some odd years since I was in high school and I’m pretty sure I missed the day they were teaching us this. So ty I appreciate any tricks of this type anytime. Please know you taught a complete stranger a trick or two that has truly made my hobby that much more enjoyable
I am a math teacher that is putting together an integrated geometry class next year. I am co-teaching with the wood shop teacher. I am looking for ways to cover all of our content through projects. Thank you for this video it provided some great ideas. If you have any project ideas, or education resources that could help me, that would be greatly appreciated.
It is going to be fun to help the students see why your tricks work. The three equally spaced spots around the circle caught me off guard a little bit, but what you were really doing was creating 6 equilateral triangles and using only 3 of the points.
Hello Kevin. I am always eager to help kids. I have a playlist that is just about geometry. If I can help in any way, feel free to email me at woodchoppintime@gmail.com. th-cam.com/play/PLHtAqxc1SsGhFA18GPlmB5nuSX8GipvPB.html
Yeah i know! Seems like they always push algebra, which is WAY too much to remember. But Geometry is easy! Oh, check out our weekly update videos on Monday. We will mention what the video on Friday's will be. Thanks for watching.
Sure thing. I've got some great tips to share. Check out our weekly update videos on Monday. We will mention what the video on Friday's will be. Thanks for watching.
I love it!!! One thing that I'd love to see more of is design concepts that are tried and true. For example... the Fibonacci or Golden Ratio of 1:1.618... and how you can use this ratio to determine all kinds of things. For example... if I am going to make a dining room table, I always have to look on the internet for, "Typical dimensions of dining room tables." and the results can be all over the place, or whatever. But I am sure that there are some "rules" or guidelines like, "The length is the width * N..." or whatever. Any tips, tricks, or guidelines on making design decisions would be AMAZING!!! I think that most woodworkers want to build their own designs. Even if they are totally patterned after a famous design... the exact dimensions are their own. I'd love to know more about why Mid Century Modern stuff looks... the way it does... vs. Shaker... vs... whatever.
I made a stand/leaf for my table saw that swung up from the side of my bench when extended and hid completely under the ledge of the bench when stowed. So there was no way to simply hinge it right at the top corner. It actually had to come out more than up. So i used a scale drawing of the stowed and extended positions. Drew the 90deg arc paths of each corner from stowed to extended. Then used that method of finding the perpendiculars to connect those centers and found where they crossed - ie the only common point where all arcs could hinge and hit the right points. It came out perfect first shot. Yay math! :D
4:29 It's some arc but later on 5:37 for a continuous S the line through the two center points crosses at the intersection too and that's a construction line extra.
I love the geometry videos, sure could have used this a month back building my daughter a bed frame, I free handed the "s" curve, turned out good but took me half a life time to get it correct.
I'm glad i was able to share that with you. It's amazing how simple this can be. The key, or course, is using it so we don't forget. Mmmmm... maybe i'll make PDF's so people can download it and save them in the shop for suture reference. Thanks for watching.

Excellent video. If my maths classes at school were this interesting and relevant, I would have payed a lot more attention. Keep up the great work.
@@puddinggeek4623 thank you so much. Please check out my geometry playlist
I never thought I would say this but yes I would like to see more geometry.
ken1Lane me too...
Bruh same now I figure out what the vertex means now lol....
I am a retired carpenter. I have made many polygons of varies sizes. But I have never thought of your way of doing it. Much simpler and super quick. Keep it up Chad, Keep teaching. A lot of people can use your Ideas
Thank you Dwell. Have you seen our second video on geometry? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
Absolutely more. I just wish I could remember most of your steps without needing to view your video each time ! Excellent work and Thanks!
Thank you. Did you see our second one? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
I just watched the second presentation and it was just as good and just as useful. Thanks again!
That is to me, not just one of your best videos, but one of the best most useful videos I’ve seen on TH-cam.
I know. My better videos are with my dancing. Hahahaha just kidding. Thanks for watching and supporting us.
Excellent stuff, Chad. If you have any more Geometry to help us getting better in wood crafting, please do make others like these... and thank you for taking the time!
The energy in this one is much better. You have matured into a confident presentor
Me mature?!?! Are you sure about that? Hahahaha thanks for watching
Loved your show and look forward to more.
Oh thank you so much. I truly appreciate that. I hope you subscribe it really does help me.
Yes,, i would like more,,,, and your demos,,, were the best,,,,, becus you showed True Application,,,,,,,, Very good man....

Yes i have already been wathed that video thank you my friend good job ;)
Thank you so much for giving us the compliment. It really encourages us.
Never thought geometry would be so necessary for woodwork! Thanks
Happy to do it. I try to show practical applications so it shows a clear use for it in our craft. Did you have chance to see our second one? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
Awesome practical application! Thank you!

Thank you Mario. I appreciate the subscription and your comments.
Yes, keep those geometry-tipps coming, please!
This is very helpful, I think I will really need your help with my diy projects
More, yes please! I’m intrigued by your layout tips for drawers technique.
Very informative. I would definitely like to see more of this type geometry tips. Thanks!
i would absolutely love to see more . liked and subbed , thanks
This is great, and no one else seems to be covering geometry for carpentry on TH-cam. I'd like to see how to use geometry to cut and build a project from start to finish. Thank you!
Brilliant video and perfectly explained
Thank you so very much!!! You have the amazing ability to present the information clearly with over complicating anything. I love it
Definitely want to see more!
Another great tip. More geometry.
I have been using cans way to long! This is so much better and easier. Thanks!
Plus it looks impressive if the customer sees you using the compass verses a can. :-) Check out our weekly update videos on Monday. We will mention what the video on Friday's will be. Thanks for watching.
Great tips and defo more geometry with added pencil tricks. Thanks.
This video was so good. I want to learn more of this.
Definitely more geometry Chad and Safety. I feel that it is a valued skill to have.
Yes I would like to see more geometry, as its applied to wood working...thanks
Great video. I'd like more geometry videos too, those were great pointers.
Thank you we'll do more soon
Good video and ideas - definitely gained something from this that can be used. Would be interested in more like it.
Thank you Anthony. We will be doing more in the near future
I don't do woodworking, but these types of tips will surely help me with the new craft I am learning.
Awesome bro, I want more of your teaching .
Great way of doing this type of drawing. Geo shover vermont
Great job, very good example!!!
Thanks for the tip, please expand on the subject for woodworking
Yes we will do more, George. Did you see our other video on geometry? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
One of the best woodworking videos I have seen in a long time. Thanks Chad!
Thank you Andrew for watching. Here's our second one. th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html

Yes i like !!!!! Want more geometic !!! Thanks you so much
Thank you VERY MUCH. No kidding, I almost didn't watch this and boy am I glad I did! cheers...rr Normandy
Good topic- keep it up, as in a geometric progression!
Thank you. Did you get a chance to see our second one? th-cam.com/video/YLSpZMhlL3s/w-d-xo.html
right on quick tips thank you Dan.

Super cool! Thanks!
Good video. ( I did a presentation like this at the woodworking club recently)
Thanks, Keith!
Excellent! Clear and simple, very well explained. I can see a use for each one of these!
awesome. Check out the new video 4-20-18 for more geometry
Wow! Thank you so much for that. You made that so easy. I couldn't understand such things in high school lol. Keep them coming. I just subscribed
Thank you Michael. We will do more in the near future. I think you will enjoy our other episodes and some of our other series on our playlist.
I've been checking them out. You and safety Dan are a hoot lol
Thank you! We just like to have fun. :-)
This was awesome. Please show more triggernomitery.
this was sick thanks chad. id love to see more on this as theres not realy much ou there i can find that i can apply to common tasks. cheers
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thaks for watching
Geometry eliminates measuring mistakes, so yes, more geometry!!!
I made a stand/leaf for my table saw that swung up from the side of my bench when extended and hid completely under the ledge of the bench when stowed. So there was no way to simply hinge it right at the top corner. It actually had to come out more than up. So i used a scale drawing of the stowed and extended positions.

It came out perfect first shot. Yay math! :D
MORE! Like the octagon trick best.
I'd love to see more tips, something for making bucket or lighthouse staves??
Ah yes. Good one. I'll add that to the list. Thank you for the suggestion and for watching
Any help from you is always good to learn, so keep them coming. thanks for sharing.
4:29 It's some arc but later on 5:37 for a continuous S the line through the two center points crosses at the intersection too and that's a construction line extra.
I like it, thank you for sharing
Thank's for sharing❤❤❤

Hi Chad, I really enjoy your tips, thanks a lot.
Would be great for me to make a compass like yours.
More Geometry, Please and Thank You!
Will do. Thanks for watching
Great video young man keep them coming
thank you sir, but i'm not as young as i used to be. HAhahaha. thanks for watching
