Astonishing piece of work. It's really irritating that you always seem to know the best method to achieve the goal - i.e., what will work and what won't. Exceptional.
Thankyou John, they are just ideas run through in my head I guess. If I can picture it working it normally does but I've had one or two failures. Maybe they just honed my ability to know what will work haha

@@BradshawJoinery if you're like me, I lay awake in bed the night before I start a job like that, running every scenario through my mind, over and over and over and.... 😂
So nice to see some brilliant hard work going in to making a quality finished product, better than would have been done back in the good old days when we built things to last.
Thanks Michael, I try to do as quality as possible. Still humbled by the quality of some of the older pieces in stately homes etc but I guess alot of that work was part of a bigger team and not an individual like me.
This is sensational. I'm a joiner/carpenter myself, but hats off to you. Thanks also for the sash plans / SketchUp drawings, I recently purchased those from you, I can only hope that this tiny donation can contribute/recuperate to the losses from this job 😂 thanks man.
Super job, I did exactly the same about six years ago with oak construction veneers, it was quite a bit taller and longer and it took three of us on the spindle to mould a very large mould. I made two cauls or formers to laminate it up and almost as many cramps as we could lay our hands on to clamp it up. Generally you really need your ribs no further apart than around 75mm otherwise when finished if you catch the light you may see slight shadows where the ribs in the formers were. It's great to see a craftsman still doing the really hard jobs, money does not compensate for the satisfaction of seeing a job done well, knowing most would run a mile from such difficult work. Great to see you share your work.
Thankyou Gary! Pleasure to share stuff like this I am trying to find the time to do it more. Thanks for sharing your experience, I've only done a few oak laminations, but assume you had 2mm ish thick oak?
Since i was 19 i was taught site carpentry 2nd fix 1st fix Flooring Maintenance work etc Im now 25 and have just taken job as a laminator/trainee joiner so ill be watching your vids more than scott brown from now on 👍👍
Cheers Mat, it wasnt too bad on cost (imo) It was 2 long days in the workshop to get ready for fitting (all 3) then a days work installing. Expensive but not ridiculous.
Excellent. Immaculate work as always and great seeing you apply your craft. As a bonus for me you showed how to get an even skim over a plug hole - something that has defeated me as an amateur until now! Just the rest of the skills to learn and I'm on my way :)
Cheers Matey, yeah its a little bit tricky to get it perfect in one hit, so i ususally deep fill and scuff flush then fine fill a few mins later when set.
Don’t try too hard to get an even skim on the first try. Either over fill and sand back to flush or come back before it’s completely set and get somewhere closer to a skim fill. Either way choose a decent filler as that is often the source of the issue.
When someone make it all look so easy, you know you’re watching a true craftsman! That was a brilliant job👍 It looks stunning. I have a couple of internal curved pieces of skirting below the bay window in my 1930’s house, and the ‘ain’t anywhere as good as yours🤣🤣🤣 All built quickly and down to a cost in those days…. Never thought about making laminated skirting like that, but obvious when you see it done. Many thanks for a detailed and descriptive video, I enjoyed watching that very much.
excellent work as always, like the bit where you said I'm not making enough money because I'm spending too much time on a project .which can only mean one thing your jobs are coming out tops.
Amazing work, Oliver. I also take longer than I should over a job but that’s because I spend too much time working out how to do it. You are not just a craftsman, you are an artisan. Brilliant work and, as always, thank you for sharing 🌞
Great video ! As an alternative to the tile wedges, I carry popsicle sticks, bought from the craft store in various widths, which are then filed / sanded to the shape and size needed for the job. I use these for all caulking work, leave a much better finish than a finger smear. I find having clean hands helps to create a much better finish and working space. Paper towel and the sticks work well. I have never seen OB 1 sealant, we use polyurathane a lot, doesn't shrink and much more sturdy than standard painters caulk like Alex Plus etc.
thankyou! Yeah good shout! The longer handle of the stick would be handy for sure. maybe superglue a wedge to the stick for a hybrid. Ive never used PU sealant. ill give it a go.
You make it all look so easy, like professional football or rugby players, but like all professionals and great craftsman, the easy part wasn't probably learned over night. Always enjoy....cheers...rr Normandy, Fra.
Thankyou Richard, haha i sometimes do forget i do this everyday ha. Back to reality when you try something left handed normally... a good starting point for instructing someone else
@@BradshawJoinery I think it depends, measuring your worth over a job like this doesn't make sense to me. It's the overall larger jobs and materials , pricing, manufacturing etc that I would consider. e.g. on this job there is some expensive machine time, extra materials, paint etc.
great job. thats the right way to do it. we often kerfed the hell out of painted skirting to get it to bend then heaps of 2 pac filler and a bit of shaping. its not the right way, sometimes you'll see the kerfs but with time pressure on jobs sometimes we have to choice. great to see it done right.
Superb technique, great video, and as usual - a joy to watch. Even though I’ll likely never do one of these myself I still think I learn from watching you do it. Thanks for sharing.
Great job. Well done. Ive come across this situation before. My solution was using 6 inch mdf skirting. Wedging between blocks screwed to the wall and floor to create a bend. Leaving it overnight. Once set like this its very easy to fix to curves.
Great stuff. I have a curved wall just like that with a very lumpy bumby skirting board that was kicked in by the builder. You got me thinking about sorting it out properly now.
Kieth at Rag n Bone Brown and Matt at Badger workshop, gave you a shout out on their podcast, so i popped over to have a look......5 minutes in and i'm a subscriber, bloody brilliant work mate!!! now I have a weekend binge watch, whooo hooo!!
You answered my question in the clip but either you have a client who doesn’t question your bill or you earn less than half of what you deserve ! Lovely work . :-)
That is top drawer skill right there.. I have a job to cut a piece of CLS 😂 You have all the gear and all the idea/ skills to utilise them..well done.. 😊
It's actually really difficult to condense the videos down but I think it's worth it. Although there will always be education info lost in reducing them down which is a shame
Enjoyed the manufacturing process Ollie. Plaster walls are always a nightmare, good thinking referencing at the top visual point. Thanks for the drill bits tip. The skirtings look superb. Tony
@@BradshawJoinery working from the top was choice of experience, plaster is always uneven at the bottom, I can't count how many times I have had to bolster it off to get skirting to fit.
Wonderful craftsmanship and a real labour of love. Hopefully your client was happy to cover all the costs associated with making and installing such a piece?
@@BradshawJoinery Flexible one has some limits unfortunately. Best one will be to use your technique, unfortunately not to many clients realised how much work it is to make one, they’re not happy to pay the “extra” Good luck with your projects 👍🏻
EVERYBODY who makes things needs the odd project where they put their best work before profit. It’s great when your kids or grandkids can say proudly “my dad made that!”
Absolutely! Everytime I see a project I put my all in to I'm proud to look at and admire which lasts alot longer than the bit of profit you may or may not have made!
Really nice job. I did a job for someone last year and for the curved walls. They actually used rubber skirting that they got in America run to match the skirting
@BRADSHAW JOINERY I've only used it once with ogee skirting. I think the guy gave a sample of the skirting to get a cutter machined to match the profile. The only negative was it was 16mm instead of 15mm. So the skirting needed a mil packer, but it was convenient and saved making up the laminations
Nice one! Yeah there are quite a few solutions to this one! I really rate the drills, used to burn through long drill bits installing window frames, these being long and durable are perfect for that job
@@BradshawJoinery True story: my brother in law worked on a gang upgrading council houses with new windows. Another gang worked twice as fast, and when he asked them how they managed this, they told him they didn't bother with mechanical fixings, but just stuck the frames in with expanding foam. This was years ago, and I've not heard of windows falling out, so I assume their gamble paid off!
Nice, I've had a few jobs where the curve wasn't that pronounced and I've managed to cut vertical rebates in the back of the skirting and then glue and fire pins, but laminating is the only way for that much of a curve, fair play, that turned out lovely! That's one of those where you hope the plasterer hasn't flaired the bottoms. 😂
Great video, thank you. I design, build, finish and install fitted furniture. I wish I could show this video to a few clients I had contact with recently. There is at least one element on every job that takes longer than I quoted, since I want to do the work properly without cutting corners. Some tools cost a lot of money, which makes doing the work a little bit faster and a lot more satisfying. If only we could share this info with some clients who want a palace, but are only willing to pay for a shed.
Haha yeah, my clients do watch the videos and are always shocked when they see the work and care/precision involved in making these things. Before watching they always frustrated at how long you may be taking to make something but the videos are great for setting things right
@@BradshawJoinery Just some silly thought of an old man. You know I am 69 and still, my favourite things are the things I have made, vice at school, the houses I have built, even a simple chisel handle on a wood lathe. These things I cherish above the $90,000 car and some of the other toys I have had. It's what you build with your hands like the love of your family, not what you buy in life. With the talent you display and the love of what you do I am sure you will go far, and never ever just work for profit it is really an empty feeling. Gene
