William I am so impressed with Green and Green furniture and was excited to see your videos addressing some of the details, but I am also equally impressed with your sense of humor. You crack me up ! Thank you
That is some amazing joinery. I've never seen that before. I am new to wood working, so there's a LOT that I haven't seen. My father and grandfather taught me a bit, but I have a LOOONG way to go. I really appreciate people like you sharing your knowledge and skill with the rest of the world. Thank you so much!
When you said "It has to be perfect, there's no slop", that's the greatest insight I've ever heard into the mind of a true master. I now say that 15-20 times a day to myself and it's helped me immensely. Thank you.
Hi Lori, You can find the bit on my website. Click on store and type in whiteside fingernail bit and it will show up. Thanks for watching and appreciate your comments.
You're right about the huge amount of work. Imagine their skill level needed to execute what they did without the fancy tools we have today. Those were true craftsman's.
You are on a short list of my favorite woodworkers from whom I hope to improve my skills. Yours are top shelf! I always learn a great deal from you and you are very efficient as a teacher; not a lot of babbling verbiage that can cause students to "phase out." This was exceptional, and I only wish I lived in Santa Monica to take classes from your school.
As far as I know, this is how it was done. Not sure of any real functionality. I'm not a hard core G&G guy, I just love their designs and furniture. Thanks for watching.
@AbiHomeInspection Thanks. I know some people will nit pick about anything here on You Tube. So I figure the best defense is a good offense. Thanks for watching.
Good job on the jig and video, thanks for not putting up with the Complainer’s! Those who can teach, 8:25 8:25 while those who can’t whine and find fault. Thank You!
Sorry for the delay. I was out of commission on pain killers. The spline detail is purely decorative and yes, you are correct.. glue on the top side and floats in the bread bd.
Sweeeeet!!! Haha! Love the video. Almost wish I still lived in Orange so I could take a class there at your school. Guess I'll have to settle for one of Darrel's classes up here in Seattle. ;o) Thanks for sharing your technique for the splines. I will definitely be using some of your techniques when I start in on my table.
I really appreciate your skill William . Just one thing for you to think about . What with all the softness and roundness of Greene and Greene features would it not have been in keeping to keep the ebony ends as round instead of squaring the mortice.
From what I am aware functionality was *implied* in more cases than as not. Many details like this acted either as an extension/accentuation of exposed joinery or actually underlying "boring" joinery methods (Ebony plugs hiding recessed screws, splines hiding tongued and grooved ends, etc). Whilst the Greenes were excellent architects and designers, Peter and John Hall were pivotal in the execution of the works. Given the scope of the projects, things like screws make practical sense.
Such a great video. I love how impressed you are with your own work. That makes me smile. Thanks for sharing these special techniques with us. Very valuable to many of us. Does your Fingernail Router Bit come with a 1/4" shank option?
The first time I saw this video, there was a G&G piece in the background. I would like to reproduce this. Can you please tell me where I can get the plans?
Gonna try my hand at G&G by making a media console for my tv. Do you think I can make it work by using walnut...which I have a lot of attention this time. Will the ebony stand out?

"The video is free, so chill out"
Savage level over 9000
Love his sense of humor. I would enjoy hanging with him.
That was awesome! I watch woodworking videos often and that was the most chill and lucid tutorial I think I've seen so far. Thanks.

William, you not only have a true talent in kissing the grain, but in ability to convey your lesson. Thank you for your videos/efforts.

Thank you William These series on G&G have made me an enthusiastic. You make things seem too easy.

Thanks for the great vid. You are a master woodworker and a master teacher. you're on my bucket list.
As far as I know, this is how it was done. Not sure of any real functionality. I'm not a hard core G&G guy, I just love their designs and furniture. Thanks for watching.
Love this detail! I really respect your detail to accuracy in all that you do. The result is obvious in the final product. Thank you!
thank you so much for sharing your experience with the public. You have a great gift for teaching...all becomes possible. thanks again.
Thanks for watching and you're most welcome for the videos. Best to you on your Greene and Greene builds.
Seattle is not a bad place to live. You can't go wrong with one of Darrell's classes. Thanks for watching.
This is an awesome insight into how to use Jigs to accomplish something that looks daunting otherwise. Thanks for the great content!
@AbiHomeInspection Thanks. I know some people will nit pick about anything here on You Tube. So I figure the best defense is a good offense. Thanks for watching.
Bellissimo, complimenti Maestro!
Good job on the jig and video, thanks for not putting up with the

Thank you. I appreciate the nice comment.
superb, the ebony really makes the piece
Thank you! fine detail of elegant work and refined wood working defined!
I can't wait to do this! Great video please keep them coming
Great video, love those chisels!
Doing my first breadboards soon. This has convinced me to do splines as well. Not ebony but something nice :)
Sorry for the delay. I was out of commission on pain killers. The spline detail is purely decorative and yes, you are correct.. glue on the top side and floats in the bread bd.
Nicely done,thks for showing how you did that
Tremendous quality as always! Far exceeds anything on the TV
Another great job, thank you!

nice one william
Awesome work. I would love to take some of your classes..
thank you for the help
Something Bad.😮 Nah, subscribed, good tips, videos.😊
I love your videos. Thank you. Do you have a video on how you made the spline jig?
Does the spline serve a functional purpose or more for decoration? It looked like you only planned to glue it on one side and the other floated free.
Here's tempting fate!
"ANYTHING BAD"
Nice Job A long way from Cerritos College
I would like to purchase one of those router bits.
🍭eet !
In Holland we say “ muj nou us kiek,n” te gek Chinees manneke,, Hihi !
saweet!
Mr Ng
Do you have a video on the aurora end table by chance?
William, is this a custom-made bit? Woodcraft acts as though they've never heard of such a thing.
i think its oval edge bit from whiteside
The first time I saw this video, there was a G&G piece in the background. I would like to reproduce this. Can you please tell me where I can get the plans?
Gonna try my hand at G&G by making a media console for my tv. Do you think I can make it work by using walnut...which I have a lot of attention this time. Will the ebony stand out?
How did you cut the slot for the saddle jig?
How do you like to install your bread board end?
I know this is an old video. But can you tell me who made the chisels. They look Japanese.
The chisels are made by Koyama. Those are Japanese chisels and can be found on my website wnwoodworkingschool
What hand tool or machine did you use to "cut the end off".
david
Vivienne Pierce I use a Japanese pull saw
What brand of Japanese chisel are you using?
Sorry for the delay. I use Koyama and Koyomaichi brand
Now pull it out and get some glue in there. Lol!
anything bad in the comments neither
Speck sos much!
