- If you are new to woodworking, these are simple yet strong ways to strengthen corners in frames. Lap joints provide a lot of glue surface and can be made with simple hand or power tools. I take you through three variations, hope this inspires you to do more with hand tools. Join our newsletter for more information like this robcosman.com/...

The reason I like hand tools only woodworking is the peace and quiet it offers to be able to listen to my thoughts as I proceed to make a mess of some things lol :) but all at a slow and easy pace :)
Since this video is today, I must say this even if it has nothing to with the video. Thank you Rob Cosman for taking from your personal “Bench Dogs” and fulfilling my order since mine are still on the ship coming over here from Sweden. Thank you very much. That is what keeps customers. Great service.
You're very welcome. Always put our customers first! Thank you, for the support!
“All right, now I’m confused.” I loved it. Such a professional and it made me laugh so hard. My favorite woodworking tutorial videos. I’ve actually learned so much from Rob.
Love this one- thank you. Teaches me that you don't have superhero special powers at woodwork, but you think it through carefully, don't give up, and give it everything you've got to get the best result. Reassuring that you get confused with orientation too, I think I make more mistakes with orientation than measuring. Great to see you paying such close attention to every little fibre, edge and surface. On the mitred lap joint, if you didn't have a router or a router plane what would you try next to clean up the cheeks? A chisel or a shoulder plane? And I never see you use a file?
It's wonderful that he admits being confused. That's a real mensch
And then admits that he should have used the router plane first and *then* cut the miter.
Wonderful that someone will admit a less than optimal approach.
But then, his skill is so great that he can overcome such things.
And then he doesn't lock down his crosscut sled! *Wonderful*. We're watching a true artisan, someone who makes mistakes and then overcomes them!
For the miter gauge not to slip, use a soft washer (brass or paper plumbing washer) between the existing steel washer and the gauge, worked great for me.
I enjoyed this one, would like to see more of this type of videos. Thank you and stay safe.

I really enjoyed the video boys. Love watching videos on different types and styles of joining wood.
Just thought I’d give ya another compliment. I liked this video so much I’ve watched it again today.
@@robertbattle9011 That's the type of stuff we love to hear!
Wow, thanks for the great half-lap workshop, Rob~! Comparing some of mine to what I just watched, I may as well be looking at the ones I put on landscaping timbers out in the yard. Time for more practice~! ;-)
Spot on 👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
Hi rob u make it look so easy. cool
The eye can be decieving....haha. Lots of practice!
@@RobCosmanWoodworking thanks rob. yep lots of practise.
Rob your awesome thank you for the daily videos
you are welcome
Thanks these are joints I have avoided but after watching your video I’m going to give them a try.
See you tomorrow.
Be there or be square!
Hey, you called it a “knife wall”! Now my two woodworking hero’s call it the same thing.
Stan Hawkins everthing I know about working wood with hand tools was learned from Rob and Paul.
Dreams do come true!
for me,your work mi work,is not work Is ART I enjoy too muchh your vid,go ahead Master
Haha, well I'm glad you enjoy it so much!
Would very much like to see process to make a mitered shooting board.
I'll see what I can do
Great examples Rob, I own the L/N large router plane too and I think its excellent.
Have you concidered the Walke Moore 2500 bronze router plane? You van change the location of the blade so most of the body of the plane would be on the workpiece
So the blade would be at one end, very useful for what you are demonstrating here. Also the cutter can be removed from the blade making it much easier to sharpen.
I have not.
I wish I could see what you see. The best camera filmers are those model airplane builders. You get to see right up in there where they’re working
Great video!
Can you make a short video to show us your method of sharpening the router plane blade?
That would be awesome, I really struggle with that

@@kabyla8351 Thank you, I missed that
we just shot a full length video on sharpening odd shaped blades, scrub, router, 1/8 chisel, squirrel tail, shoulder, spokeshave. THat will be released this weekend as May's newsletter, join here robcosman.com/pages/newsletter
Thanks Rob, and thanks for all the unbelievably good content, a priceless resource for 40year old beginners like myself as well as for keeping us all sane in difficult times.
Very good Rob, Thanks. What happened with the drawer, I have been on edge since yesterday!
Tomorrow!
Agree with @Tom Rounds, can you show how to make a shooting board (or attachment for shooting board) for case miters? Thanks Rob
Will add it to the list!
Don’t forget to tell folks about the SawStop Jobsite Pro.
Stan Hawkins you are right! Thanks Stan!
If you wanted mechanical fastening with those joints, how many and where would you place them in the joint?
Thinking about outdoor frames for window screens with a headless nail or pin in each joint?

I obviously need more sharpening practice. I've gotten my planes and chisels cutting nicely, but watching the way yours slice through wood serves as motivation to practice sharpening more.
Take into consideration the really soft wood he is using for this demonstration
Can never practice too much!
@@MC-zr7hl, I have found it to be much more difficult to cleanly work soft woods than harder species. Maybe that's just my inexperience showing.
For what it's worth, I use my carpenter square held against the mitre guide with saw off, then with short leg near blade, I slide guide back and forth watching gap between square and blade tooth. I can always get even gap with full travel of mitre guide. I think better than short combo square
Great insight.
Good Morning Rob, Jake, Col. Luther and Super Duper Dave, have you guys ever thought about doing a PHP closed Facebook group for this community you’ve created ? Might be a great way for us all to communicate and maybe help each other along the way ~ great video Rob ! I gave Dave a field promotion! Lol
corporal captain by chance?
RobCosman.com nope just “Duper” lol
Loved the video. Would love to see you make a picture frame using through wedged mortise and tenon joint.
Thank you. I'll take that suggestion into consideration. We are very busy though. I'll see what I can do.
Have you ever watched a youtuber named Paul Sellers,Rob?I like him a l lot.he works for the most part with hand tools only,not strictly but more often than not.
If only I had enough time in my day.
On your shooting boards, are you laying the plane flat and adjusting the blade to cut square? Is that why there is a gap between the plane and the shooting board?
yes!
One of these days we’re going to see that Saw Stop brake in action.
Rob did a video on the saw break firing. No cut or gore but that was $70 +-.
I cringed watching this.
Why did y’all cringe? Lol
@@codychace4185 I'm still trying to get over clipping the end of my little finger off in a jointer.
@@codychace4185 I saw it, too. making adjustments while the saw was running.
At 23:25 (and elsewhere) you just eyeball the pencil line half the thickness of the board and use your finger along the face to keep you parallel. That has to be exactly in the right place right? A 16th (or 32th I guess) over and your sides wont be flush. I guess you've done it so many times.
Awesome video! Sometimes I think I should just use hand tools as they are just about as fast and have more control. Plus I would get a lot better at using them!
You know we stand behind them. You can find a great selection on our website @robcosman.com
On that table saw cut, your left hand looked awfully close to that blade. I’m sure it wasn’t as close as it appeared on the video, but what would be a safer alternative to passing that piece without the hand there?

I'm very comfortable with what I do.
Sometimes it’s quicker to do joinery by hand then by machine unless you are batching out!!
Great comment!
What happened to the drawer?
Stay tuned to find out.
If I have concluded anything over my lifetime it's that the ends justify the means. I have to say though, I was told in my formative years to "always make the rip cut first" and I always have. Interesting to see Rob doing the opposite.
Though, "the ends justify the means" is dangerous as a general saying.
Gotta do what works for you! I find this is the most effective way for me.
White Pine is WAY too soft for me
I know your tablesaw is a SawStop, but I wince every time you do something close to that exposed, spinning blade. What's the best way to sharpen a router plane cutter?

Hi Brian, we just shot a full length video on sharpening odd shaped blades, router plane was one of them. It will be in the May newsletter to be released in the next few days. newsletter subscribe here robcosman.com/pages/newsletter
