Your patience is extraordinary. And because you are so patient it's easy to feel your frustration with problems which shouldn't arise. Soon you will be past this delay. 👍👍👍
Sometimes it takes trying and trying again and maybe again. I think they are goingbto look great once they are installed. Thanks once again for sharing with us Stay safe
Love that your doing your beams the old school way! Generally. Anything made this way just lasts longer, is stronger and in my opinion, looks better. I commend your hard work, truly. Love the 'thinking' music. Lol!
i look forward to every video ...Your love and dedication to this project is inspiring. Sending you a wish for easy fixes for those frustrating moments.
You did great overcoming the little problems. ❤ Also the big ones too! You are dedicated to doing a great job for the home and your family, a true father 💓
Two different sizes beams. I would have lost my temper. I hand it to you for your grace under pressure. You are almost down to doing one at a time. I am so sorry. But, you are resilient. It must be that "let's do this" mantra of yours. I find myself saying that now! I cannot wait to see this go together.
Illia, you are such a perfectionist I cannot believe this. Thanks for sharing you mistakes as well as your triumphs. I cannot wait for you to get started on the interior decorations with Marina. X
Use a marking gauge and marking knife along the face to prevent chip out. Start with a straight bit to start, then finish with the dovetail to make it easier.
It's a good idea to take the lighter bites with the router, not just to score the line, but also for the subsequent stock removal. It's not just cleaner, but you're not taxing the tool as much and not heating the tooling up as much, either...heat kills the sharpness.
It's probably a good idea to have the oak beams fit a little loose in the steel beams, to allow for expansion and contraction and also to give you some flexibility when fitting the dovetails together. Keep up the good work!
You should have made the straight cuts to the proper depth on the table saw AND THEN used the router to finish your curve. The cuts would have all been identical and your curved tenon could be cleaned up with a chisel.
To control the chip out measure where the router blade exits the wood. Measure and Mark/cut the wood and using a sharp knife score the wood where the chip out will occur. This cuts the wood fiber and controls any chip out when the router blade exits the wood.
Hi! Guys! The term for the chipping Illia is looking for is blow-out ;) Kind regards from a Cabinetmaker and furniture conservator from Denmark :) PS. the router you are using i not really made for the task you are using it for. It's and edge router. You should get your bigger one for the task. Although you could hack your small router by mounting a bigger sole on it, to have a bigger surface to rest on and thereby avoid it tipping.
It always concerns me when it looks like you are not using hearing protection while using power tools ... please save you hearing. Always something that is a fly in the ointment making projects take more effort and last longer. I admire all your perseverance and hard work.
Hi Illia I feel your frustration but can I say you are doing a great job on those joints. When it's all up and finished you wont see those tiny imperfections. I hope you don't mind me correcting you. It's not "IRON" beams it's "STEEL" beams.
There is a true saying in Dutch, "Met passen en meten wordt de meeste tijd versleten". This translates in English (and off course losing it's rhyme) to, "Most of the time is wasted on fitting and measuring".👴😉
Might be helpful to place a scrap piece(s) on both sides of your beams. End grain is difficult to route the tenon. It has helped me. Keeps end grain rearing to a minimum.
why did you cut the oak beams only on the top? usually you cut a piece on the top and the bottom on both ends. it's ok if they move a little bit because you connect them with the other beams later.
Have been watching the build pretty much from the beginning. Everything you have done seems common sense and often cost cutting. This flooring, however, seems over engineered, complex, very labor intensive and just doesn't make sense.

Take heart 💜 Ilia, there's going to be days like this. Rest well. 🤗❤️🌈🙏🕊️💙💛
Your workmanship is beautiful. It must be frustrating when you can't get the fit just right, but your patience is amazing. Still good progress.
Sometimes it takes trying and trying again and maybe again.

If it was an easy process, everyone would be doing it! Congratulations on your hard work- it’s a work of art!😊

❤😊bless your heart😊that’s a lot of work 😊
Dude, I am so sorry about the discovery of the beams being different in size. Hang in there.
Don't worry be happy...
i look forward to every video ...Your love and dedication to this project is inspiring. Sending you a wish for easy fixes for those frustrating moments.
Illia,you have the patience of a Saint! Great work and fit....
I love that you persevered and were able to come up with a solution. It’s going to be absolutely amazing when you’re finished!
The quality of the wood you're using is amazing. You have to show this beauty. :-) Keep up the good work! Greetings Ben
You are amazing, llia. Whatever is needed you can overcome and always do an incredible job. Hats off to you.
You did great overcoming the little problems. ❤ Also the big ones too!
You are dedicated to doing a great job for the home and your family, a true father 💓
Your woodworking skills are admirable. I would have used joist hangers and painted them black to match the I beams. This will look much better.

So very close and almost there. Next time!!!!

You are a saint! I would have had those beams in a bonfire by now. 😂
I think the pumpkins were mocking you throughout the night.
You should be routing the board vertically so you can observe cutting better without waggling ❤

That wood is so beautiful!
PPS. you can also use a making gauge (like the one veritas makes to score the wood really fast. Or use a router plane to do the same thing ;)

Use a SHARP knife! Press hard enough to CUT the fibers at a reasonable depth and correct angle.

Is the door to the workshop on your to do list ? Sand and paint….
Easy, you’re not making fine furniture!
Watching from California and horrified by the recent election and how it will affect Ukraine.
Does it kill dust mites?

Russia has more progress in Ukraine then this build
Das ist der Unterschied zwischen zerstören und aufbauen
