Yeah man. Whether you're working with wood or metal, templates and jigs are a huge time saver. Just the effort saved in remeasuring each piece or dealing with different lengths/angles is well worth the time to make them. Well done.
Thanks for the video. Those look like 6x6 and I’m liking the design for the braces on my farmers porch. Question for you. Are the tenons on those 3” and if so, what size peg did you use? I have one inch and am concerned about shearing. Not sure if it’s a big concern on a brace though. Thoughts?
Sure like to have your old japanese pull saw or any other damaged tools ie chisel with no handle ect. for my class in reteething saws and building saws for the youth in my family here in the philippines. Thanks for sharing great idea simple and effective.
Thanks for the encouragement! I like how you are finding way to save labor and make your work more consistent I was looking for your dovetail jig or pattern video but could not find enjoyed the other things I did find 🤠
There are a lot of ways to approach brace work. Some other time saving aspects, only cut bare faced tenons on the brace, no need to fuss with the shoulder on both sides just reduce the work to the tenon thickness on the waste side, also if your using a template to mark the tenon shape, instead of using a tape to pull and risk marking the wrong mark make a story stick or another pattern for the brace length. Also, the face of the tenons can be ripped with a skill saw using a drop cut on the butt end of the tenon, saw the shoulder and the face of the tenon, very little chisel work after that or use a slick to clean up the face. Here is a recent mass production of braces we did for a project, in the description you will find another video I did on brace layout. I also show how to deal with rough stock and get a true 45 degree on the brace angle cut. Check it out if your interested. th-cam.com/video/UvoDS_QK0Po/w-d-xo.html
Bryan - Great videos! Looking for the Part 3 in this series which covers the template for the Dovetail Tenon. You reference a part 3 in multiple videos, but I cannot seem to find it. Am I just missing it or is it gone? Very interested!! TIA!
prob a dumb question- could you make the first and use it as the model and then trace around it instead of the template? Good work ! thanks fir the tips, Wulfy
Flip template end to end using same edge to flush with beam. Side A and side B of template? What about the other side using transfer lines? Same thing. I understand the process, but haphazzardly moving and rotating the template can be confusing.

I’m really enjoying these videos. They’ve going to be huge money and time savers for my upcoming project. Thank you for sharing!
Glad you like them!

Appreciate your opinion on that, thanks!

Outstanding! I'm about ready to make 14 of them myself. Templates are critical time savers (unless you make the template wrong!) Ha!
Or unless your template gets cracked/dinged- which happened to us- so had to make a second one.
Really enjoy watching your video Well Done
Thank you very much!
Hey , the templates are a really great idea. TFS.
Thanks!

This playlist contains most of our joinery work: th-cam.com/play/PLZBpATJAnu21wLiQ4YEVgyvT7WitAymlR.html
@@ColoradoMountainLiving Thanks!
I always wanted to try using templates for brace layout but never got around to making them. After seeing this I think that's gotta change! Thanks.
Cool! Let us know how it works out for you.
@@ColoradoMountainLiving Worked out great! I actually produced a video about brace production for my shop build thread.
Brian...you need to relax when you look into the camera, the look you give us scares the shit outta me...LMFAO...great upload, just kidding here LOL
haha ok man
Hello there!!!! amazing work you are doing. One question, which are the dimensions of the dovetail bit drill?
Thanks! By recall- thinking the bit was 1"x1" snd .5" shank.
@@ColoradoMountainLiving Do you happen to have a link to this bit that you used?
prob a dumb question- could you make the first and use it as the model and then trace around it instead of the template?
Good work !
thanks fir the tips,
Wulfy
You could, but it's a lot bigger and heavier to maneuver than a template
thank you for sharing...
Did you ever make a part 3?
Yes- th-cam.com/video/mtHDJ9bQuas/w-d-xo.html
Those braces look really nice!
Thanks so much!
Check out Makita 5500s tennon maker cheap can do the braces rafters , super fast,..check out the TH-cam videos you may like.thanks for the tips.
Thanks for the tip!
I understand what you were attempting to show, but to anyone unfamiliar with joinery, your video missed the mark completely.
Not sure what this comment is trying to communicate.

What about the other side using transfer lines? Same thing. I understand the process, but haphazzardly moving and rotating the template can be confusing.
