Nice design, very well done. Thanks for making the plans available.
Nice job! I especially like your kid hiding under your workbench while you planed the legs.
lol....cracked me up too, thanks for watching!
Came out great Tyler! Really like how the maple is mostly clear with just a few streaks.

Thanks man.....we are really happy with how they turned out.
Big 💖 To your work and your family
Thanks!
cheers for sharing your project it really helps people get into the shed and get covered in sweat and saw dust. you broke down the build perfectly. I'm gonna steal some of your components to make my first stool
They look Great!
Thanks Leigh!
Good looking and practical stool that is simple to make.
Thanks Sam!
I'm really impressed with your bandsaw - I'm guessing that it is out of my budget!
Stools look great, you’re stepping up to the next level of carpentry, keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching!
Loving the natural wood look!
hehehe
Probably one of the best looking things you've built. Congratulations!
Thanks Kyle!!
Fantastic all Orange 👍
Really nice stool design.
Hi Tyler, nice job for Bar Stools... your new workshop is super successful ... in more thank you for sharing with us ... You incredibly inspires us in our hobby ..!
Tyler that looks fantastic! The grain of the seat top is absolutely amazing. Great job!!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks man....am excited to see what they look like lined up next to each other!
Nice job, Tyler!
Thanks Matt!
Hey Tyler! This is a great project build!
I've been following you for a while and really appreciate the free plans. It's also been nice watching how your skills and projects have improved over time. You're definitely an inspiration to all of us DIY'ers!!
Thanks for all you do!
Thanks Bill! Was never really sure if people liked the basic plans. Thanks for the feedback.
Thanks for sharing, thanks for free plans. Greetings from France. Félicitations pour la qualité de vos vidéos et de votre travail
Beautiful
It would be nice to do a project like this for people that don’t have 30 different power tools they’ve never heard of.
Nice job Tyler! 👍
I have the same model planner that you have. I recently replaced the cutter head with the Byrd Shelix cutter head. What a difference. Much smoother cuts as well as being quitter. Kind of pricey but well worth it.
That's a great looking bar stool, Tyler! Great job!
Good, even you agree this one probably shouldn't be orange!
Well, maybe the chamfer could use a bit of orange...but that would be all... ;) lol
That would be a cool video IMO. I am a leather worker but have found woodworking to be pretty therapeutic as a novice. Thanks for the content looking forward to more education.
I like it. Looks good. Nice job.
Very nice!
Tyler........as usual, great build; great video!
SUPERBE BOULOT MERCI POUR TON PARTAGE
Hey Tyler, haven't watched the video but I know it's going to be good. Much love from South africa 👍
Thanks man....hope you liked it when you got to it!!
Nice efficient shop dude.
Very nice 👍👍👍👍👍
- VERY GOOD JOB, especially the cutting out of the seat. Effectively using the band saw is a 'technique' in & of itself. Making your own 'domino' cutter takes special skills also. R U an Engineer by profession ??? Anyway, thanx 4 sharing.
Hi Tyler Nice Job, i Will copy this
Great job. I was curious how you were making the seat. Very nice work.
Very nice piece Tyler and good job on the video,
Thanks JB!
Happy wife happy life. As the old saying goes if mommy ain't happy nobody happy. Great build
You speak the truth!!
I really like the shape and dimensions of this stool, Tyler!
Thanks Bruce!!
b noches Tyler están increíbles tus vídeos, me gusta la carpintería soy un novato pero me gusta aprender me gustaría un vídeo donde agas cajones para un closet y su base ,gracias y saludos desde cd Obregón, sonora México
Good job kid's
Love your videos. I just came across this video and your Ridgid chop caught my eye. What is that 12inch laser chop saw
Awesome stool. Thank you for the video AND the free plans!
That homemade domino machine is so rad! Stools look amazing, great job man
Thanks Robin!!
Nice job Ty!!! I was wondering do you sell those yr "Checker Machine?" Id love to buy one from you.
Tyler, Do you have plans for the home made Domino machine. I sure like your videos and the maple benches a a wonderful example of your work. Thanks John in Pensacola
Nice project!! Looks like a Jay Bates workshop 😉
Jay is a good guy to mimic!
Tyler G that he is!
Another great project, Tyler! But when you're introducing the project, why do you look at me like you're trying to convince me to take candy from your white unmarked van? ;-) haha
Nice build. No need to shell out a grand for a Festool Domino ! I'll look for a build video on that .
Excellent video, Tyler! I really liked following along on the build. I just love watching you work in your shop. That maple, with ambrosia accents is stunning! I'm so grateful to be numbered with you on #teamRIDGID. A couple questions for you about design and execution:
1. What were/are your thoughts about leaving out top rails on the stool (e.g. rails that were M&T'd like the lower rails)in this design?
2. Self admittedly I put wood movement in last place but how do you think the wood movement of the top, being glued to the support, will affect the integrity of the M&Ts on the rails?
3. How do you keep the kiddos out of your grill when doing milling and joinery cuts - especially when filming? For my kids it's like a moth to the flame.
4. More of a comment: B sure is lucky to have a loving, creative, hard working hubby like you. Thanks for the example!!!
1) More difficult to make for sure, maybe not as strong?
2) Support grain direction is the same as the top so I hope it will be fine, couldn't think of another way. Am a bit worried about the lower supports being a different grain direction but my consolation is that is how I have seen every other chair.
3) I have to tell them all the time. You see they are always there.
4) Am pretty sure she like it!
Thanks Scott....hopefully my shop can be graced with your footsteps someday.
Hi Tyler, excellent video tutorial. Thank you for sharing. What size dominos you used for these barstools?
Hi, thanks for video. I am only starting woodworking and now read a book about woodworking basics. Based on the book, because of season temperature changes, such stool top connection will destroy the whole structure or I misunderstood something?
Great job on the stools. How did you make that home made domino setup?
The conection bars between legs are also 10 deg cut?
when you say approximate, how much over do you usually go? 1/4, 1/2?
You always get high marks from me, when the kids are in the shop. By the way, great stools.
Tyler love the look of the stool. Was wondering why not at least put a screw down into the tops of the legs to hold the top support piece?? Long grain to end isn't the best glue joint
New put a few nails into it.
I was worried about this connection as well. I wouldn't spoil the look of the top with nails or screws, but a blind dowel or "checker" in each leg would make it stronger. But then again, you only need strength when you pick up a stool by the seat (or when the kids knock one over!)
I was going to suggest putting chamfer on the feet to avoid tear out when scooted on the floor but in the final image it looks like you may have done that but not mentioned it in the vid?
We have felt pads under the feed.
Very nice job. Do you prefer to use the band saw for ripping?
Hi Dave! Yes, less dust in my opinion and when the boards are not straight and flat I feel its a bit safer, less blade pinch.
Nice project Tyler. Just curious, seems like the only thing holding the seat to the legs is a single nail in each leg and glue into end grain. Have you had any issues with the seat coming off?
I wondered this too. It effectively isn't any stronger than just edge gluing the legs to the seat.
Where did you get the maple from and what was the approximate cost for these three slabs.
How are you accounting for the wood movement in those tops? I think it may cause issues being directly connected to the legs. I don't know your climate, but maple that wide and thick is going to move. If you haven't finished the other two yet, you may want to mount them with bolts and elongated holes in your aprons. That would also allow for easy removal and touch up in the future if anything happens to them. Great video!
Never seen a chair with elongated mounting holes. The grain orientation of the leg bracket is the same as the top so I hope they will move the same.....the cross direction is quite a distance a way so I hope there is enough give in the wood.
I'm curious why you didn't make those rip cuts on the table saw?
More chance of pinching the blade and getting kickback since the slab isn't flat yet. And less dust and wast because of the smaller bandsaw blade.
Did you take wood movement into consideration??
Beautiful work man & nice choice of wood. Do you pick up the 6 qtr lumber locally or order & shipped to you?
I picked it up locally. Thanks for watching!
Thanks I need to find some 6qtr for my table.
Looks Awesome! A little confused about the reference to a loose mortise & tenon joint. Looked pretty tight to me.
wdh375xen technically it's loose tenon. Don't want your mortise loose 🤣
Gunslinger Woodworks
Yep, I got it. Gonna claim having one of those senior moments! 😀
Looks like you got your question answered!
Tyler G
I did. Great project btw.
How much your cost for one of that saddle?
Is it true with a longer out feed table for the planer that you will have little to no snipe?
It will definitely help.
Are there any plans for sale on these stools? I'm looking to make a few strong stools and these wood b perfect
Better believe it! www.diytyler.com/shop/bar-stool/
Where do you get the checker pieces that goes into the slots the checker makes, being that this is your design? Or do you make them yourself and how do you make them?
Sorry for all the silly questions. Trying to learn.
Hope you can get to my questions.
I make them, flat stock....round over both sides with the router, cut to length on the badsaw and round corners on the belt sander. Cheap and make a bunch at a time.
Tyler, love your work and your videos. You show us using this "checker/homemade domino" gizmo. Please tell me where the build video/instructions are for it, I must have one! Love the idea of saving almost $1k. Thank you!
Build video here on on my channel...the design is not mine but you can find all the links for the design in the video description.
Hey Tyler, just wondering if you had some suggestions for alternatives to loose tenons? I imagine regular mortise/tenon joints would be pretty tricky on an angle, so do you think regular dowels would have enough strength? The other thing I was thinking was through-dowels using hardwood, but it would be better to go with something that wouldn't be visible if possible.
Dowels would be good and half laps would be another option.
Tyler G Good call. Thank you!
How do you know how far, length wise, to go on a round-over bit?
Trial and error to what looks best.
Tu m étonnes qu 'ils font de bonne menuiseries , quand tu vois le matos qu'ils ont, donnez moi la moitié , on en rediscutent
Tyler, Great video once again. quick question, did you have to angle the mortise on the leg to match the 10 degree angle of the supports?
Do you read comments Tyler? sent a few on some info guess yon don't read old ones maybe this will get to you. Doing some projects and going to buy some plans from you web. But need some info first, have you taken carpenter classes for some harder builds cuz some of your ideas look pretty tough and need a guide in this thanks.
Hey William.....I read all comments (but the mean ones) but I have tagged the work plans and it usually gets sent to spam. I learned everything I do from TH-cam and Blogs, not classes. If you buy plans they are step by step with a lot of detail...and you have the videos to rewatch as well!
Well if your implying that my comment was mean it was not just thought you never read old post hard to keep track of. As it felt like as a subscriber after saying what a cool idea you had and I watch most of all you videos and a simple question takes a week to get back. didn't know you had more then a TH-cam channel for work till I watch your computer build so thanks for writing back but I found out through Jaybates channel most was self taught
#thewife
Es presumido en español es mejor ...gracias .
What's the blade diameter of your bandsaw?
Don't recall but its specific to the laguna 14|12 bandsaw
- Very nice project BUT would have been even better if directions for making the angled leg cuts had been given. That part is not easy to "figger out." Otherwise, the stools are nice.
The free plans to into more detail
Stools look nice Tyler! I was wondering where u been and Idk how but I have been unsubbed for quite sometime now! (Thanks youtube) im Gonna have to binge watch the past few months to get caught up
..p.s.I'm subbed again. Unless TH-cam u subs me again for the 3rd time now.
-,
Hey Joe! You know what is funny, was thinking about you three/four days ago wondering where you were! Way to go TH-cam. We have been hard at it, addition, lots of projects, new job and lots of other fun!
@@DIYTyler looking forward to seeing ALL of it..there were 4 other big name channels I got unsubbed to that I've been subbed to for yrs ..#fixyoutube
Nice. But it would be better if you have incorporated proper joints rather then using screws. This stools would not last long.
A year in with the kids beating on them every day and they are still solid as a rock.
all power tools. the beauty of old day carpentry is gone when things were done all by hand tools and massive mastery was needed. Its replaced by speed, precision, efficiency and not so much mastery. but it is just evolution and there is no stopping evolution. Not criticizing the project/work here just sharing an observation. What you did here is great.
I liked the video, though really can't figure out why people who are doing a lot of videos fail to lower the over head guard on the bandsaw. Thumbs down for this, thumbs up for the rest.
