#Joinery #Woodworking
I do sincerely hope there's a bunch of teenagers watching your videos that will be inspired and encouraged to pursue carpentry and joinery as a future career. You have such great skills and talent to impart. Fifty years ago I had the opportunity and took, Woodwork, Metalwork, Technical Drawing and Engineering Workshop Theory & Practice, each as individual 'O' Levels. Unfortunately, for many years now, our School Students have been deprived of those and similar trade related opportunities, as successive governments, egged on by so called "educators", decimated the curriculum in favour of a "Service/Financial Services" based economy. What a success that's been!😢
Amen to that, i guess you have to be a little luck to be inspired by someone or something early on. Without the facility for that being there then its not going to happen. shame!
Screw the younger lot I wanna go and learn from him.
Great job on the door, loved this series. That age old chesnut with hinge layout too, I was always taught 6", 9"...on the average, off the shelf doors. Larger doors would be 7"/10", 7/11", 5"/10", it's what ever looks best imo, hinge sizes etc. Never trust anyone who says 6"/9" for everything 😂
Hope all is well and really do enjoy your videos
It’s been a class series so far - so nice to see high quality joinery projects from start to finish.
Thankyou!!!
However much the client it paying for this door and frame, it isn’t enough for this level of craftsmanship! Absolute top notch work.
Thanks mate, i will let them know :D haha
6 9 middle is what I was taught.
I can definitely say I’ve experienced that moment of fear when you think you have chopped out a hinge or lock but on the wrong side of the door / frame , Then you stand up and realise you are actually right the relief 😂 but I’ve definitely done it wrong before - helped me learn
HAHA I think youd be doing very well never to do it in an career. just more embarassing the further into your career it happens..
Glad to see I'm not the only one who uses green painter's tape as a key element in a dust collection system! I do wish there was a standard in the industry for dust collection ports on handheld tools. Lovely work as always!
haha, water waste pipe and a heat gun the the norm! the tapes for the metabo sander, werid tapered inlet nothign will stick to
Excellent job as usual. Love the long format video so much to learn.
The precision joinery on the bespoke door ( and it’s frame) continues in this episode. Fitting all the hinges, locks and door components requires real attention to detail as is clearly demonstrated here ( and in all your projects). Your use of simple workshop made jigs to ensure perfect alignment and depths of hinges etc was really informative. Another fascinating video illustrating joinery craftsmanship at the very highest level.
thankyou Jeff, really appreciate your comments, thankyou for watching and enjoying. :)
Yet another brilliant video. Thanks ollie for taking the time to make them
It’s a thing of beauty, my only comment is, the lock all seems a little understated for such a grand large door.
It looks good in the finished door (latch), and about the right size tbh, it was tricky finding something suitable really.
Realy liked the cutting to size on the panel saw, thought to myself, " self I'd like to see the blokes in
B & Q use the store panel saw to square up a door" 😅
This door is soooo amazing. As good as it's going to look all painted green to match the frame, part of me really wants to see how that wood would look all finished and oiled up. It would look amazing next to the green door frame. But amazing job and thanks for showing us how it's done. Really cool to see how much craftsmanship goes into a project like this.
THankyou Joshua, it would be interesting to see, properly polished but i am not a fan personally of stained doors. i genuinely prefer a nicely finished painted door/woodwork. seems an unpopular opinion
@@BradshawJoinery I think I like both. A good painted door (like I'm sure you'll do!) really does come out nice. But that woodgrain looks amazing too so it'd be cool to see it finished and exposed. I'm good either way really. We had a custom screen door built for us last year and we love the heck out of it. It's super thick and built amazing by a local mill one town over from ours.
You are an artist. Everytime I watch your videosI learn something new 🙂
Amazing series and to make something so complex whilst filming it is frankly astonishing. I barely have the patience to move the camera and I'm making simple boxes most of the time! Thanks for giving the details of jig building as you go - it's inspiring and shaming at the same time.
The sound of it closing and just stopping, made of what it is, is sooooo satisfying 😊
Looks great man, I’ve been following along.
You could make a lot of money in the Bay Area California. Areas like Los Altos, Menlo Park, Saratoga, there’s a lot of tech and even older money here and people will gladly pay for your type of quality.
Door's coming along brilliantly mate! Those joints are spot on. I've tried the Trend discs and agree they're pretty good. But recently 'converted' to the 3M Cubitron discs. They're a revelation tbh. Very long lasting and the 'netting' construction greatly improves dust extraction so I get a much finer finish much quicker. Wouldn't go back to 'solid' discs again now if you paid me.
I have recently started on the 3M cubitron. For me they are the best discs I have used. The rolls of paper they do are very good also.
@@0skar9193 👍
You certainly know your stuff, Oliver; I am shaking my head in admiration at your perfect example of working efficiently on your own. I also noticed you using the carpeted work top you recommended on your last video. As you rightly said: Noice 🌞
Thanks Ray, them carpet pads must be 5 years old now and still the best thing since sliced bread
Oi mate, havent seen you for a while,hope you're on a wel deserved holly's canary islands. enjoy then, hope you're good
Excellent as usual, but of course, that’s why I follow you. How I would have loved to work as an apprentice with someone like you all those years ago instead of as a machinist in the steel works ( but it served me well in the accuracy stakes, still use a micrometer every day ! ) I re- trained late in life in furniture making, built my own workshop & absolutely love working with wood. It is a privilege to watch your videos and share your journey. Thank you so much Oliver.
Not bad for the first time and with borrowed tools :)
Excellent job, remarkable craftsmanship, exceptional attention to details.
Haha thanks mate!
Was eagerly awaiting this video to see the assembled unit, did not disappoint, beautiful carpentry 👌🏽
Another very well detailed and informative video. I made several of your jigs for hinges and locks and fitted 18 new doors in my daughters house. Made the job so much easier. Well worth the effort of making them. Looking forward to seeing it finished and in place. Cheers. Jim
Great video Oliver !!! The door and frame look like a peice of art work !!!! Perfection !!!!
Thankyou Michael, really appreciate it
Just a great video! Really appreciate you & your efforts! As a professional finish carpenter ( not super high end builds like yours) I enjoy the challenge to fit in great work for the price the customer pays! This is motivating for all us guys who work everyday in the carpentry trade ! I vote you really focus on the pros ! Some DIY guys are good enough to build their own cabinets , doors, base, crown ? So I am not being disrespectful in any way !
I enjoy how you teach , tools , how to get the most out of them ect.,.
Thank you !
Thankyou mate. Really great to hear, and yes the videos are aimed at training people who didnt get the oppourtunity to learn from an apprenticeship.
@@BradshawJoinery I agree ! SCHOOLS OPEN!
This series has been an inspiring tutorial. Your workmanship is definitely a cut above.
I believe the taper you mentioned on those beautiful solid brass hinges is designed to match the 2° taper on the edge of the door. This allows for installing brass weatherstripping without binding.
Thanks for sharing.
AHH that's interesting! Thankyou
When are we going to see finished article ...fitted ...Great wee series
I am working on the next edit, got very busy my end so it's taken a back seat
2mm packer under the planner for leading edge!! So simple! Great tip!! 👍
Amazing looking door and frame! Great job, and detailed videos!! 👌👌
Coming along very nicely! You could sand the lock with the belt sander to get a more flush appearance.
I love center drills..i just use a size smaller than i need to get the slight bias for hinges.
Oliver master class , great video has always. you've got loads of talent.
Thankyou John, very kind.
Brilliant workmanship i always keep my draft strip to one side of the rebate so i don't need to cut the seal out for hinges and lock, gives a better seal but i do live in Ireland , only came across channel at Christmas and you really are a great carpenter tradesman , I also do the same work in Ireland just hope your getting paid for your beautiful work
theres no right answer with that i dont think, its no bother, as only a secondary strip, the main one is on the door shut. just gets a bit pokey in the corner when its behind the hinges, but it does work the same. Thanks mate, good to have you aboard, There are a few Irish guys commenting regular. Quite hard to gain info over there, am i correct?
Yeah definitely hard to gain info in Ireland , The reason i mentioned the seal is i live on the west coast and the wind is very bad nothing like Manchester weather, I've lived in Ireland for the last 20 years and really do miss working with great tradesmen , Thanks for the channel it makes me feel like I'm back home @@BradshawJoinery
Do you find water gets blown/sucked past capillary grooves at door/window bottoms in extreme weather?
Yeah definitely on windows, always use a weather strip on bottom of doors and over in Ireland never a wooded Sill we concrete the sill's and rap a 24inc dpc up around the back of the door frame and under the concrete if that makes sense , in costal areas with prevailing wind and rain i just don't take the job on , for the last few days we are in a storm and the wind as reached 150 kl that's what they are saying, Thanks for replying to my messages @@BradshawJoinery
Thank you for sharing all your knowledge in these videos Ollie.
Legend Karl, Nice to meet you my friend :)
@@BradshawJoinery You to mate, just got home, cream cracked now.
What's happened, where have you gone?
Still here, i've had a holiday and starting a very involved project this month so the edits have take a back seat atm, will get back to a weekly upload shortly
Enjoying every minute of this series, such precise work by an Craftsman.
Wonderful craftsmanship as always, such a joy to watch
Thankyou!
is it me or does at 16.05, the door look warped ???? lol great series so far 🙂🙂🙂
Coming right along and looking incredible. I used your router hinge jig idea on a project last year and it worked really well. Thank you for sharing your talent and tips with this community, love your work and can't wait to see this one finished. Now, you just have to come up with something to top the green oak framing and the door/frame build!
It is a great project. Thanks for sharing it.
Looks stunning mate, great job.
Thankyou bud!
A cutting gauge works great for sinking the lip on a rim lock
Amazing work as always Oliver, but that key hole position is affecting my OCD it's too close to the inside/glass panel. I've just got to the bit where it explains why you did that. 😉
Superb work 👍
wonderful bit a whittling , i have to say the frame and door are absolutely stunning , beautifully designed and made .Also , just wondering are those your van keys , hanging off your jacket zip ??.
thank you, no its a remote fob to start and stop the dust extractor. its bout the only place that it doesn't get accidentally triggered too easily.... although it happened in this one lifting the door onto the saw at start.
Work of art 👍
When can we expect to see your next video Ollie?
Absolutely to class mate. Just one question, as I always seem to do it on doors... when you chop in your hinges and latch, how does that interact when it's fully painted? I always seem to get them too snug so after paint they're a bugger to fit!
Olly, hope all is well with you. Haven’t heard from you in a while. Having withdrawal symptoms.
THanks, Im good, just super busy, hopefully back soon
Nice work, but the door hardware would look so much better with brass screws.
It does in the finish but never use the finish screws until its is finished and you put them in once.
Great video 👍
I understand why you put the key lock where it is, but it just looks odd so far into the door !
thankyou. It looks a lot better soon promise! Infact stunning part of the door :)
Incredible work! This has been such a great project to follow along with, I'm interested to know what you use to age the brass?
Thanks, this stuff - priorypolishes.co.uk/product/metal-antiquing-patination-fluid-brown/
The precision is unreal! On a mortice and tenon door can you put a mortice lock where the middle rail joint is at?
Been a while! Hope all's well with you mate?
yeah good thanks mate, just rreally busy
@@BradshawJoinery 😎👍
Beautiful job. Glad you are feeling better. Thanks
Sort of, had 2 colds/flu and toothache (that still remains 2 months on! ) but did have a few days last week pain free which were delightful! haha Thankyou!
I tried that trend abrasive a while back - major problem with it is that the loop backing seriously looses it's ability to attach to the hook side of my sander pad (a mirka deros so I don't think it's that to blame!) So whilst the abrasive side does admittedly last very well, the loop backing is what lets it down. I ended up with quite a few discs flying across the workshop. Having tried a whole load of different abrasives over the past year, I've got back to mirka abranet/autonet - you just can't beat it for staying sharp. (don't get me started on 3m cubiton - absolutely shocking stuff!)
I’ve not tried the cubitron yet but you are the first negative review I’ve seen so far! I think Festool grant is better than any and reasonable price from some distributors to be fair.
Brilliant channel 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
thankyou!!!
Ace job , looks the biz
Cheers Bud
Quality 👏👏
Very nice work,I'm building doors for 25 years now solid wood ..how many doors have you made?
thanks bud, erm, best guess probably 100 at most. every one different haha
Great stuff! I’d love to learn more about how you price and manage projects from a business sense. I’m happy with what i am producing and usually end up on a wage of £20ph, this never leaves enough for investment in better tooling etc though! I don’t know where I’m going wrong 🙃
I agree and appreciate your exact situation, probably earning less as you put more into bettering your product… hopefully that will lead to a dedicated customer base and you can charge more for it. Try working backwards from your last job but start with what you want to earn per year, divide it into working days of the year then how long your last job took up of working time… will give you a good understanding where your price should be.
Absolutely mint
Cheers Chris! Nice one
Ollie did you disappear? Looking forward to new content 😉
Ive been on holiday and not got back into the madness that is working and editing lol,
That’s great we all need a break. Hope you well rested and ready for the madness:-). Looking forward to your new content.
hi couple of questions, at what height do you try and put the handle on a external door? and also what draught strip do you use, cheers
It vaires depending on the door, but you will find most multipoint locks to be around the 1m to 1050mm mark from the floor. (if i remember correctly) These were deventer. In the style of aquamac 21 from schlegel i always used to use
@@BradshawJoinery iam a wood machinist / joiner, spend 90% of my time making bespoke doors and casings and i have been doing it for about 18year now, and that halving glazing bar trick is ingenius i am definatley using that on my next glazed door. Ive been watching this series and the job is truley beautiful well done. (ill have a look at that draught strip thankyou)
How do you work out if you need a bevel on your leading door edge to clear the frame?
Pretty much always want one unless the gap is huge. id start with 3 degrees as minimum and increase the angle the narrower the door. you can draw it out if it helps with trammel heads from hinge pivot point.
When’s the next video? Loving the series
trying mate, thankyou so much, im just really busy for the next few months, they will come though
What model sander is that? Looks decent
Festool bs75 belt and metabo sx450 or something (the old one)
How do you work out if how much of a bevel you need on your leading door edge to clear the frame?
Edit: trend need to send you a couple of door stands with the next paper delivery
HAha, i have a list building for them!!! think i replied to your other comment but best way is to draw it out. h
@@BradshawJoinery cheers Ollie, I will give it a go, sketchUp dusted off 😁
When can we expect the next video?
Soon, so much on I'm not finding the time to do it!
@@BradshawJoinery ill be waiting 😁😁👍
What router bit you using with the jig mate?
amzn.to/3O9SHVm this one, but any flush trim router bit will suffice. this one is a cheaper trend version - amzn.to/3u2HzTr
Lovvvelly
Noice ❤
Nice one bruvva.. :)
Fair play mate. You are the bollocks lol
Cheers bud
Me so haunchy
What's going on? Are you all right?🤔
Mega busy mate thanks, I'll get another video out soon! But not got the time at the minute
👊🫡
I love the work ....and the videos!!
