    omg I'm off to try it. I haven't been able to purchase a compass large enough or actuate enough to do a 400mm circle.

      Glad you found this video but it's more for earning donuts than actually drawing large circles 😉😃
      This is what you need for drawing large circles:

      When I need to draw a larger circle than it will draw as is, I simply replace the white fiberglass rod with a 1/2" diameter wood dowel or aluminum rod.

    That's downright amazing I love to see stuff like this because there was once a time we did do stuff by hand and did not all ways have tools other than the simple things rulers and such
    A man has a brain the most important tool of all
    Tools are made by man from thing just now demonstrated
    And we as men need to go back to the campfire to listen to the stories once told and to learn the wisdom of how things once were today's world is not that much different the tools are and machines take over were a man's brain must still be to guide things
    Knowledge and tradition are keys to our future I am thankful to see a great teacher still practicing a great art
    from long ago

  • @VivekTodi1988
    @VivekTodi1988 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm not a carpenter. I am very much interested in drawing large shapes to cut out textiles. As soon as you nailed the two nails at the diameter, I visualised that the diameter will always act as the hypotenuse for the triangles formed by any point on the circle. And if you trace the point's locus you will get a circle! And Voila you did it!
    I am so happy that the Internet can introduce us to such great content!

    Do you need any extended family? All I’ve wanted to do since I was a child is become as skilled as possible with my hands, and hopefully make some exceptional things to spread my zeal. I can build a house from start to finish, but I no longer frame and find that your approach to things that require much more finesse is dead on. I’m really enjoying your knowledge and have recently used your tips for making an ellipse. Personally, I would love to see more joinery tutorials for people like me that are trying to go from rough framing and finish trim work to hand made shelves and tables. I’m just now figuring out how to S4S spare wood for projects and thats been tricky but well worth the time.

    • @NextLevelCarpentry
      @NextLevelCarpentry  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Ryan, the growing audience at Next Level Carpentry is turning into something of an extended family, and with your recent subscription, kinda makes you part of it... welcome! The lifelong motivation you have for building your skillset is a key ingredient for your success. The fact that you're gravitating away from framing into more refined work (not that there isn't a fair amount of finesse in framing) is a logical progression, one that I made some years back. To me it was all about working smarter, not harder. In time I expect to produce many more videos showing interesting joinery stuff but I'm currently in the phase transition from carpentry to video producer and results are spotty. Your understanding for the necessity of working with S4S tells me you're on the right track and it will make all the difference in your results.
      Some of the poorly produced, low view videos here actually include some of my best methods so if you can put up with their poor video quality and pay close attention I think you'll find some of the methods, principals and processes helpful for a wide range of applications. Best regards, Matt

      Wow, thanks for the reply. You’re videos are to the point, I’m not concerned with editing. It happens that I was sub-contractor who switched to a technology career during the housing crash. Unfortunately, I get much more satisfaction in carpentry and building and never had anybody with your skills to teach my eager mind. Thank you very much, I’m soaking it all in and trying to get better so that my personal projects look as good as my framing and trim do. I’m very invested, and even used your tutorial to service my dewalt planer, which is the same as yours. If I can ever contribute in the technology arena, please ask and I’ll gladly exchange some of my experience also. You’re awesome

    • @NextLevelCarpentry

      Interesting career path, Ryan... appreciation you have from two differing careers is a life secret that many never realize. It's somewhat amusing to me the number of stories I see/hear where people have ditched a fast paced career path trajectory to 'get back to the basics' work with their hands, etc. I've yet to see the person who had a fulfilling livelihood in custom woodwork and decided 'hey, I'm going to ditch this peaceful, challenging but rewarding work to jump into the rat race'! Stay in touch through comments and I'll try to help out where ever. For now I gotta load up some tools and go out in an attempt to make the world a better place :-) Best, Matt

      I have one compass that comes close and it's just a Chinese knockoff brand which you can find linked on my Amazon influencers page. My favorite feature is that it has a sliding quick adjust feature which allows me to switch from drawing a small radius to a large radius in seconds rather than a minutes spent twisting the little adjuster knob on most compasses.
      Let me know if you are unable to find the link and I'll dig it up and send it directly. I also use a rather inexpensive but useful little beam compass for a lot of things also because it has a better pencil holder...

      I've yet to see a square used to draw an ellipse but will certainly share it if/when I do! You've probably already seen this one...

      ...instead of a square it uses a stick and, to me, is equally 'slick'...

    Consequently an ellipse could be developed using the concentric circles method or simpler still the trammel method, 👍 🔨 🇺🇸 🇮🇪

      @@schm4704 , wow I didn't know Thales did this. Do you have a reference? Thanks for sharing! Must have been where Pythagoras learned it.. The circle with the square is a series of right triangles, sort of like the SIN and COS within the unit circle in trigonometry..
