    I've bee making a living at woodworking for over 40 years, I hate watching these kinds of videos, because all I do is pick them apart. This guy, I can't stop watching his videos, everything he does makes sense. I even laugh at his dumb jokes. He is fixated on the Domino, he's right. His designs are nice too. The only thing I can fault him on, is his shop is bigger than mine.

    I love your videos! I watch on my smart TV so I never leave comments but I came on my computer to leave you this comment. You must have the patience of a saint. I can't imagine all the sanding you have to do and the complexity of your designs is brilliant! I just retired and started wood working and it is much harder than I expected. This plan I think I can manage so I will get this plan. I also love your sense of humor! Nobody seams to have one anymore. Keep up the great work! You also seam like a great Dad!

    Thank you for taking the time to explain the legs, why you didn’t mitre them, and how to grain match. That was extremely helpful. Your videos encouraged me to build some large projects I would have never tried, and they’ve actually turned out half decent. Keep up the great work!

    I like the fact that you tell people when things are not required, like gluing every tenon in the base. Also I don't understand why people complain when you 'break out' the domino jointer, you've already said "Use a dowel joint instead" and you can do that for a few pounds in the UK. Keep the videos coming, they are really good.

    • @richardclarke9966
      @richardclarke9966 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@mortimerwoodworks3 Depends entirely on the blade. Most blades in the US are 1/8" (3.175mm) unless they use the 'thin kerf' blades. My TS has a 2.6mm blade. Just adjust your dado/groove accordingly by bumping the fence to widen, or use a router. You can also use a buscuit jointer and run it the whole length of the skirt, blades are typically 4mm. Or get a plough plane - there's literally loads of different ways to achive this.

    More or less built this but with ash. I love the design, its perfect for the foot of a bed! Also used it as inspiration for a couple cedar benches. Youre right, the little things like the angles on the legs make all the difference in the world. I moved the slat shelf up some to be able to put more stuff under it.

  • @andyjame9774

    the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

    That design is identical to a coffee table and two end tables I made over 10 years ago. I used all 1x2s and pre-glued panels from Lowes. I think I only spent like 40 bucks. A few years later I painted the frames white and they made great country looking pieces.

  • @richardtrepanier228
    @richardtrepanier228 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    When I made a similar bench I used the Domino 500 to put tendons in for the top and then put it together. I did not glue it and it (the top) stays where it should be and does not move or come off.

  • @gorred60
    @gorred60 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Enjoy your videos, and I am a follower. This gave me inspiration to build my own bench, a bit different than yours, but following the same basic idea. I for instance put the skirts (up and down) inside the V of the legs, and then I put the base slats on a thin stripe, a thin piece of wood on the inside of the lower skirts (I don't have tools for domino jointing). But basically, like. And very much inspired by your video. It now serves as a flower bench, making a kind of divider in a small apartment.

    Absolutely great video! I am at best a hobbyist and have been trying to improve and learn new techniques for quite a while so your channel is invaluable to me and hope you keep the tutorials coming.
    For those complaining that you use festool. I have been scraping and saving to build my festool collection for almost 10 years and have met a lot of others doing the same at our local store. So I have the Domino and love it over the other techniques I used to use.
    I think it would have been easier and more legitimate to complain about having to use a joiner and planer to mill the wood. I wish I had those but can figure out a work around, like most thing.

    One thing I never really see in a woodworking video is what to do if something isn’t square. When assembling the shelf he says to make sure you check for square. But what do you do if it isn’t square? I always get the sense in his videos that everything is always square so checking for square is just sort of a formality. Would love to see how he would fix things during the assembly of the shelf if something wasn’t square.
