    Although there is no talking, it is still one of the best woodworking/project video collection on the tube. I love your creativity, practicality, work flow and dog :-). I just told my son that it is truly wonderful to see someone who is obviously very smart and dedicated to his craft. Love your videos and the work you do, I wish I could spen a few months learning and working with you. Cheers, keep up the excellent work. Craig from Canada.

    Beautiful. And the letters match the color to the door and the gate.

    Beautiful work. If I were a bee, I'd love to make your sign my home.

    Good build Timothy. I'm looking to buy a Festool drill . What is the larger one you use and can you tell me a little about it ? Thanks

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a T15, now 5 years old and still on the original batteries. I love it and wouldn't want another, but Festool has since been releasing a wide range of 18V tools, so I would suggest a T18 if you don't rule out ever getting another cordless Festool.

    awesome build! what are the screws you where using? interesting

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used exclusively stainless steel nails and screws, for the most part left overs I had laying around. The ones on top with the small head are normally for hardwood deck floors.

    Love your work and shop, what glue are you using from the bucket?

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for the compliments, the glue in buckets is just white PVA glue. In this case from Briançon, it doesn't contain minerals so it doesn't react with oak. I use the buckets to refill the bottles as well.

    It's great to see you working again with another project.I have a question to ask regarding a spindle moulder cutters.What selection of cutters do you have or what selection of cutters should I have to cover all basic aspects of joinery but not to go crazy with the spendings?Thank you for help.Keep a good work.Best regards.Jakub

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The first thing to have is a 50mm cutter with a set of different profiles, these allow you to do almost anything without investing too much. There are cheap profiles available of practically every possible shape and use.
      But gradually you will want to move to dedicated cutters for each task, adjustable groove cutter, glue profile cutters, adjustable angle cutters etc...
      I could be more specific if you prefer to directly invest in dedicated cutters, but a set with different profiles is always nice to have any way.

    What are the dimensions of your assembly room and machine room? Anything you would change now that you've been in your shop for a while?

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Respectively 7,5x5m and 11x10m, the only room I find too small is the finishing room 3,5x5m. The rest is big enough as long as I stay organised and don't expand my machine collection too much. Also note that most of my wood stack is outside of the shop.

    Not sure if youre still tracking the comments on this page but ill ask anyways... Can you give an update on this? How did it work out? Just wondering what it looks like after its been up for a while

    Super boulot Timothy
    Ton atelier laisse réveur, j'aprécie beaucoup le chauffage avec le Déom Turbo il est vrai que le fabricant est en Belgique, je pense en acquérir un via un importateur ou directement à l'usine.
    Tu as beaucoup d'abeilles ou d'insectes qui nichent depuis la pose de ton "hôtel"?

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sur mon site il y à un lien vers la magasin ou j'ai commandé mon poil, en usine je n'avais pas un prix si bas.
      Il y avait une activité très intense au début sur l’hôtel, il y à une vingtaine de trous bouchés pour l'instant mais depuis il fait plus froid alors l'activité s'est réduite.

    • @ixion8666
      @ixion8666 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Merci Timothy, j'ai vu le site d'achat mais bon quelques problémes dans la gestion de leur page web du moins sur l'Ipad. Le poële chauffe t'il convenablement votre atelier? Il existe des revendeurs en France, je pensais que la diffusion etait pas simple pour ce genre de produit, en tout cas merci pour tout.

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      C'est le seule moyen de chauffage pour mon atelier et appartement au dessus. Avec les filtres à air au plafond la chaleur est bien diffusée. La bonne isolation aide aussi.

    Excellent work, but Im wondering, why you "store" or "throw " (scrap) wood and sometimes even Tools on the floor.

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The scrap wood is stored to burn in the winter and if I keep tools on the floor then it's likely because I haven't built storage or a stand for it.

    I understand the goal of the hotel but having it near the door you are not afraid to attract wasps too close to the house/shop?

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      These solitary bees and wasps are harmless in fact, they have no honey or hive to defend so they will flee danger. They behave like bumblebees, they also exclusively feed on flowers or insects depending on the species so they won't bother you when you are eating/drinking outside like social wasps would.

      I have covered cobblestones with sand at the entry of my workshop. And in the spring a lot of mining bees coming out. This spring one accidentally got into my open shoe, good for a few painful seconds :). And next to that grass consisting of mainly clover, here there are even more risks.

    At first: I love all of your videos, thank you for them! :) I have one question which makes me think about my way of using the circular saw. Is there a reason why you put the workpiece behind the fence instead of infront of it? ( as I do and never though about) thanks!

      Engelbert Strauss, Classic model, prices aren't as ridiculous as you would get from the other major brands, and they hold up very well. My shirts and blouses are from them as well.

    tof dat er eens vlaamse houtbewerkers wat doen op yt :), ben zelf student interieurbouw in syntrawest en doe volgend jaar avond onderwijs meubelbouw, deze vids motiveren me ook waarom houtbewerking nu eenmaal een topvak is!

      Je kan het sketchup model gratis downloaden van mijn website, ik ga ook éénvoudige aanzichten tekenen met de afmetingen zodra video 2 af is. Dit is voor mij te eenvoudig om te kunnen verkopen.

  • @edadpops1709
    @edadpops1709 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What type of glue did you use. I notice all euro cabinet makers use a glue brush and glue seems to come in a tub instead of a bottle like in the states,doesnt the glue dry up? Just wondering about the technique.

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I use glue either from a bucket with a brush, or from a bottle depending on what works best. When you need to smear it out on a large surface it's better to directly apply it with a brush.
      Also it's much cheaper in buckets, so I use buckets to refill the bottles. But in this particular case I filled the bucket with Titebond 3, it works best when only having a few cm of glue in the bucket, that way you can leave the brushes in there. Mine gets used daily so there is no drying problem, for a hobby woodworker that could be different but you can always add a little water.

      Indeed, and it's her name. She rarely comes down in the workshop so I had to film it as evidence.

    Excellent build, but waste of time and material , too much.
    Old rotten wood would be better for such a project and the insects

    • @TimothyWilmots
      @TimothyWilmots  7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Good point, rotten wood or dead trees is what they really need but it's also what they can't find any more. I don't have any dead trees or rotten wood, so you have to emulate this with an insect hotel. Granted a simple pine beam against a wall with drilled holes works just as well but that wouldn't make a nice shop sign ;)
