- It takes a master woodworker to teach the basics. Watch Paul's every move in this video. He shows every single detail of cutting this essential woodworking joint. This is one of the three joints that Paul talks about in his woodworking curriculum.
The housing dado is the essential shelving joint. It is the strongest way suspend a wide horizontal board by passing it into a vertical piece such as a bookshelf. It has many other uses, such as the back of a drawer. Although there are many variations on a theme with this joint mastering the most simple form is the most difficult and important step.

I have finally found the best woodworking channel on TH-cam. You don't overly rely on power tools, which saved me from losing interest in the craft since almost every other channel I would see would say you need all of these large, fancy, bolted down machines. Im only 13 and teaching myself with videos, so this is very good for a novice as well as an expert. Thanks Paul.
The Gaming Ostrich Same here. I live in a flat, so there's no way I can have something resembling a proper workshop. I have to buy wood already cut to size and then...improvise. These videos open up the possibility to actually built something that isn't just held together by screws and brackets!
Thank you Paul. You make it look so easy and are a true inspiration!
Does anyone know of a good reliable place to help me identify my Grandfathers plane.
@glyn hodges I work so slowly and make so many mistakes that few people could afford my hobby projects either, even at minimum wage, lol.
At the end, I felt like giving a round of applause. Absolutely mesmerising.
Caution: watching this video may cause a drop in blood pressure and a sense of calm well-being.
Next, we are going to paint a happy little tree...

Best comment!
When i click on one of Mr. Seller's videos the first thing I do I click the like button, it's like saying hello when I see this gentleman.
There are no words that can express how much I appreciate you sharing with us the craftmanship you have learned. Thank you.
Your 22 words did the job nicely...
A craftsman that can cut a dado that accurate with hand tools can build anything, and it will be a work of art, Thank you Paul!
Agreed. However he'll only have time to build a handful of pieces in one lifetime at this rate.
Beautiful! This is what the Internet was made for. How previously would we ever have got free (!) access to these amazing skills from a master craftsman. Love that hand router: what a thing of beauty!
Watching these videos, I feel like I've struck gold. Thank you sir!
I am so thankful Paul is passing his knowledge on to us! Not everyone has the monetary means or space for a bunch of power tools. Furthermore, this is an artistry in itself, and Paul breaths fresh life back into the word "craftsman." A little math, a sharp iron, and some patience and skill can go a long way. I live in Germany and found the exact chisels from the "how to sharpen a woodworking chisel" at the hardware store and got so excited! Used the same method with my 25 euro wooden hand plane and now I'm all sharpened up, making curly little frills of wood, and ready to join some wood without reaching for the kreg jig!
"It's not what you make, it's how you make it." PURE GOLD from Paul! thanks again.
Wow, Paul. How did it take me 7 years to find that video? Very enjoyable, mate. I'm sure that you've been told this before, but you do have an easy voice to listen to.
Your work is wonderful, as is your calm and reassuring presentation. I anxiously await your videos, checking constantly for them; and, even after working wood as a hobbyist for 40+ years, I never fail to learn something novel from you, finding myself saying quietly, "He's such a master; wish I could have apprenticed under him." Thanks sincerely for your time and energy in sharing these beautiful videos, Paul.
Very true
+Jonny Ross well said
+Jonny the man 23 I agree, I wish I was his apprentice.
I just started and I find an ancient, profound wisdom in his craft
You are all virtual apprentices of Paul.
I am shifting more to hand tools for multiple reasons, this method shown is safer, quieter, and more satisfying than using a dado stack in a table saw.
Of all the youtube videos I've watched out of pure curiosity, only Paul's have caused me to immediately try something myself.
I just found this video. I think I found my wood working holy grail. Can't wait to see the other videos
A great teacher.A simple joint like that ,expertly executed btw, and you can see how much enthusiasm it still generates for him after five decades or more . Bravo Paul .
You are amazing! You make it look so easy but it is way more difficult to get such clean and perfects cuts as you do. I am a 60 year old woman and new to wood working. I am taking a woodworking class over the internet and we are supposed to be using power tools but I am trying to cut my dados and rabbets by hand. So far they are not coming out so well but each time I have to do a new technique I look for your videos on it. I have watched the chisel sharpening videos and I now try to sharpen my tools although my tools are not high quality. I get a little better at it each day. I used to get so frustrated when things don't go the way I want them to but now when I feel like that I stop and watch another one of your videos and it calms me down and I can start anew. I'm trying to work up the confidence to do dovetails but I still am confused by them. You are such an inspiration and I love your sense of humor. Thank you so much!
Try our www.commonwoodworking.com too. It's about new people and what's needed to get started in so many areas with hand tools.
Truly the Bob Ross of wood.
I just love the care, the craftsmanship, and the love of the wood and the woodworking that comes out from these videos. I just want to go pick up my saws and chisels and planes, and make something.
Excellent crisp cut & joint
The more I watch clips like this the less and less need I see of tuning all my power hand tools. The time spent setting up a jig and clamping everything for the cuts followed by clean up, is about the same as by hand. Hand tooling is clean and more satisfying. (Also really could have used this about 3 days ago)
Agreed, especially for hobby level work or low production. Machine work just allows for larger scale production, and it could be argued less "skill" as you can rely on the machine more. Each has their place.
Truly inspiring! Awesome mindset! It lays all on the table and on his words. Thanks a lot!
All the videos I watched using a router to make dados overwhelmed me. This, while more work, actually is a better fit for on how I learn.
When it comes to starting out all you need is cheap set of chisels, hand plane, hammer and hand saw.
Those four basic sets of tools can really get you started. Hand tool woodworking is a declining art and if you can get good at that you will be able to make things that people using machines cannot.
I wish I could come the Great Britain to take lessons from you. I learn something every time I watch you lessons. Thank you very much for what you do to keep this craft alive.
Pleasure to watch a Master at work. Thank you.
You are a great teacher Paul, Thanks so much.
"Share your knowledge and skills, don't bore St. Peter with them"-ish.
Heard that quote (paraphrasing, hence the "ish") on Just Plane Fun (Micheal Jenkins) the other day, and Paul certainly delivers this mantra. So many viewers talk about wishing they could appreciate under Paul --yes, that would be totally awesome --but in a way he IS apprenticing people, every day. Watching his videos, it's similar in dynamic to taking an online class. If you are a motivated sort of person who can focus on the task at hand (aside from life distractions that are largely out of our control) you will do well. In my apprenticeship, I often heard "I can't teach you everything I know. You'll take my job." Legit, I heard that alot. No joke. Paul is opposite tho. He doesn't need to belittle people on account of his craft mastery, he simply shares his knowledge and skills. This is a contented person. A total joy to be a part of 😢 frfr
i❤it!
I can tell patience is a critical attribute with wood working
Beautifully done sir, so many important fundamentals covered in this relatively short video.
It's great to be able to learn from your considerable experience, thank you.
tony
I whish i Could go learn with you! So refreshing to see the possibilities of hand tools work. Thank you so much. Cheers
Hello Paul Sellers I love your videos, the simplicity with which you explain and talk with us, thank you!
Thank you Mr. Sellers for the videos. I am enjoying getting back to basics with the hand tools and you are showing very effective methods that I am picking up and practising.
Another 1st class video, thank you Paul, much appreciated.
I can really appreciate this lesson, thanks a lot for the teaching Paul.
A master at work for sure, your work has taught me many things
I thoroughly enjoyed watching that. Thank you!
Thank you Paul-I greatly respect your woodworking knowledge and have learned much watching your videos. Even though I mostly use power tools when working with wood I enjoy working with hand tools as well and it is definitely more therapeutic for me. I appreciate you keeping the art of traditional joining and woodworking alive.
Paul: I just discovered you on TH-cam. So glad! When I was a teenager I tried to go to work for an accomplished finish carpenter. He agreed to teach me what he knew, but never had work! I feel like I can get those lessons now! Thanks, again.
I keep coming back to these videos for a dust up in refreshing the skills - these videos are fantastic. The funny thing is the Missus and I both enjoy the sound of Mr. Sellers voice - he is so calm and easy going, it is nice just to listen to him describing the work also! Thank you so very much and keep up the good work, do.
I've really enjoyed all your videos. These joint videos have really helped! I got excited when I saw the router plane on the table. I recently received one from my grandfather in-law. Can't wait for more videos!
I really like the patience you have to explain things in ultra details. great learning experience.!!!!
Once again I learn great methods of working in wood. Thank you very much Paul for your great teaching
I like the way of working and teaching of Paul Sellers, he is the best!!..
Thanks for those videos, always inspiring to do the right gestures !
Being fairly new to traditional woodworking, I've watched a fair share of videos on cutting housing joints. After trying other methods, I must say that Paul's technique came out the best by by far. I suppose that shouldn't be surprising.
Thank you Paul for another excellent video!
Brilliant Paul, absolutely brilliant.
Beautiful work! Thanks
I am always impressed with your teaching. You seem to cut straight to the core, and simplify what many others complicate. I have always wanted to do wood working, but didn't because I didn't have space for all those big machines, and I couldn't justify the cost. I have found a couple of old planes, chisels, saws, and braces in what has been gathered from family members, but have to sharpen and restore many. I still need to build a suitable bench that will fit my area, and learn to put a better edge on the tools, but I think I have all the tools I need to get started. Many thanks for helping change my perspective, and more.
Paul has an incredible video on maintaining important edges...watch and learn!
Such an absolute master of your craft. It is a pleasure to watch.
thank you Paul I have learned so much watching your videos..
I like listening to you and the way you present things.
I don't know why some people dislike your videos. But for me I love your discipline and accuracy in your woodworking. I can't wait to get started! Very insperational! Thank you
Gracias por compartir su conocimiento y su arte. Todos sus trabajos son excelentes. Saludos desde Argentina
You are a master! Thank you for sharing this knowledge!
I just love the craftsmanship in your every video.... I enjoy working with hand tools and follow your channel for this reason..
Yeah, I hit the like button even before I watched the video. I was not disappointed. In fact, it was better than I had expected.
So much small details included in these tutorials to which most would hve had to learn the hard way after making those simple little mistakes. This video's are slow and time consuming but what Iv now learnt from my past mistakes too, that you cannot rush true craftsman ship. Attention to detail is vital
Paul this is so intuitive you start in a way newbie diyers can grasp. thanks and please post more
Truly a master carpenter/Craftsman. And a very good instructor!
the way Paul uses those basic tools...I got a lot to learn.
I love the craftsmanship and I like how you take your time and really explain exactly what you are doing. This knowledge you are sharing is invaluable. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for woodworking. "It's not what you're making, but how you make it."
Well done lads, and thank you.
That was a great video Paul. Thanks
Thank you for making these videos. I'm using them to teach my son woodworking.
You are an excellent teacher Mr. Sellers.
Going to learn a bunch from you Sir. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Thank you! Good video! Merry Christmas!
This video helped me so much, thank you Paul
You are truly an Inspiration. Hello from Southwest Georgia.
Another perfect demonstration of this seemingly-simple joint, which is so easy to do ... badly!
Thanks!
Amazing. so much patience.
Very useful and enjoyable to watch.
Great stuff. I love these videos.
Great job and excellent teacher
Hello paul, my name is also paulo, I am from Portugal . I would like to tell you that I follow your work already some few years ,and for me you will always be a reference in my work. Regards
I love your show Peter, nice work
beautifully done
Very nicely done with excellent presentation.
thanks for sharing your knowledge Paul. My first attempt was to use a saw and a screw driver and a mallet. Thanks for showing the way working with the wood and your masterful skills and wisdom.
Fantastic tutorial thanks Paul
Is a complex job but looks so easy when he do it. That's what means be a master.
That was great. Thanks.
One and only word : bravo!
Thank You very much !!!
your videos are mesmerizing.
"It's not what you make. It's how you make it." I'm adopting that as the current slogan for my channel, with due credit to Master Sellers, of course.
The first time I tried to do this was with an unsharpened chisel. I learnt my lesson pretty quick XD.
Thank you so much 🙏
Excellent.
un grande maestro.
Nice one Paul. Happy Easter.
I envy how sharp your chisels are/must be. Terrific video, thanks for your time.
Mr. Sellers, you sir are a miracle.
I need a time machine so I can gain about 30 some years of experience with making things from wood.
I did this just tonight for the first time. Worked perfectly.
You're the man! Thank you for sharing!
Excellent video, sir. If only I had seen this 2 weeks ago, I would have saved myself a lot of trouble (and quite a few less-than-perfect dados).
many thanks!
Wow beautiful work !!🇮🇳
Very nice video!
This is a great skill builder.
