How to make a super simple grooving plane with any wood.
Переглядів 2,8 тис.Місяць тому
This is a grooving plane. There are several versions with all the bells and whistles but do you really need all of that? I say no. This version is as simple as you can get. Accessible for anyone but it does the job just as good. Build it for yourself and be proud. Music - Epidemic Sound- #woodmade #handmade #madera #carpinteria #shop #woodworker #build

Little Known use of the Cutting Gauge
Переглядів 1,3 тис.2 місяці тому
This is a little trick to use the cutting gauge for cutting small strips over and over. Cutting them that small on the table saw isn't something I like to do and some people don't want to have to cut down with a saw. Score the wood several times and then snap it loose. Finish off with a handplane and shooting board. Hope it helps. Music- Epidemic Sound #make #woodmade #build #handmake #handtools

Its been a while since I have done any real woodworking. New job, new rotating schedule. Eye surgery. If you are out of practice for an extended period of time, you will lose a step or two. Hard to see the lines right now whenever I chisel but you keep going. But you cant sit idle or end up 10 steps back intstead of 5. Get up, go to your shop and Practice.

Hewing to a line with A Hatchet.

Learning to use the hatchet can improve your hand eye coordination and speed up your work. With some practice, you can get really close to the line without cutting off your fingers. Giving credit where credit is due. I learned all of this from Mortise and Tenon Magazine. They are a great resource for learning. #handmake #carpentry #make #woodwork #mortiseandtenon #handtools #woodworkshop #carpe...

    Well said Sir, I watch an awful lot of woodworking videos and ( sweeping statement) a lot are made in America and a lot of them are shite.... amateur woodworking with all the tools in a cabinet behind them etc a video camera and a need to have smoke blown up their arse... so it is refreshing to see it as it is and should be, hat off to you.

    • @Juan-hr7ol
      @Juan-hr7ol 5 днів тому

      That makes two of us. I also like to watch a lot of woodworking channels. One of my favorite pastimes. Takes my mind off the world. I do my best to not try to come off as something I'm not just to get views. I try to make cool stuff and maybe give some people a few ideas,and learn at the same time. I like the fact that I can communicate with people from all over and get their thoughts. I think that's one of the coolest aspects of this. Thank you!

  • @steve6271

    Nicely done. With this plane could you make a series of blades that are different radius’s for use in different situations? One question, what is the tool with the blue handle?

    • @Juan-hr7ol
      @Juan-hr7ol 5 днів тому

      That's a good question. Im not 💯 sure but thinking about it, I'm not sure how well that would work. You couldn't make the blade radius smaller otherwise you would have trouble on your depth with the plane body acting like a stop so you have to keep extending the blade out and you probably would not want the blade radius larger because the plane body acts like a guide once you create a groove so you might not be able to track well. But that would be a little neat experiment. I could be wrong. The blue handle tool,I'm not sure what you are referring to other than my clamp but I would have to go back and review that old video. Thanks though.

    • @Juan-hr7ol
      @Juan-hr7ol 5 днів тому

      Id say 90% of the time I'm using hand tools but depending on the job I still might dust off a power tool here and there. I'm not going to lie and say I don't. Like a 5-6 ft long plank that has to be planed down and I have to do like 4 of them? I'm going outside with the thicknesser. I hate it because it's so loud but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Id rather hear the sound of hand tools.

    1) wisdom with age…the workshop is my place of many thoughts too. Great thoughts. 2) excellent content. How would these disks work (but smaller) as “maker marks” on things you make or have made? (E.g embed a smaller one on the kerfing plane, or on bottom of the box you made instead of using a hot stamp?…just a thought…

    Oh, one other thing. If you take a piece of PVC pipe and glue one end cap on, then glue on a threaded end cap on the other end where you can put a removable plug, you can put in your bigger 1.5 and up as bid as you want, I guess, and soak your billet for at least a week but 2-3 is better in mineral oil. It makes cutting the threads so much better. Smooth as glass and almost zero tear out. And it kind of swells the wood, like boat builders did back in the day, and condenses the wood too. Results are AMAZING and the difference is TRUELY AMAZING.

    • @Juan-hr7ol
      @Juan-hr7ol 17 днів тому

      Pretty cool. I'm a little impatient. I don't know if I would be able to wait 3 weeks. Usually I do a couple of days and I learned as long as I sharpen the hell out of the cutter,it does pretty good. But maybe I'll try that and let a big piece sit for a few weeks for the fun and see how it cuts for myself. Tanks!

    15:32 I’d be terrified cutting a box open by hand, potentially ruining all the work I’ve done to get to that point. Here’s how I would do it: get a saw blade and sandwich it between two flat and straight pieces of wood. Put the box upside down on the flattest surface you have and run the saw sandwich against it. Should result in a very straight cut. Or you could even just clamp your saw flat onto a surface with a piece of wood under it and run the box against it.

      Heck yeah. Wouldn't mind seeing a picture of it. Sometimes it takes a bit of work but I'm always happy I did it in the end.

    Great video. Newbie qn: why go to all trouble removing so much material to make that hook. Why not just glue/squarea small piece on either side of a sqaured up base?

      Great point, which I realized today doing something similar to this project. I tried to precisely hollow a portion in a cheap knotty 2by4 pine. It was a fail, so i decided to fix two stops with screws. I would not trust glue alone here though, as the forces can be too great. Wooden pegs would be an alternative to screws

    • @Juan-hr7ol

      Yea. Wood pegs would definitely help. As far as glue, I don't know. I've done some tests myself and watched several videos on glue. The glue we have today is really strong. Most of the time,the wood around the glue has failed before the glue. Crazy stuff

    How well do the glued miters hold up? I've seen you make a couple boxes this way. Thanks.

      Pretty good so far honestly. I've seen several videos about end grain glue ups. There's one in particular where they glued up wood several different configurations. Turns out end grain glue ups are a lot stronger than what people have thought. Interesting video. If I can remember the persons name I'll message it to you in here. Thanks

      You just need a bit more glue than normal on end grain as the wood soaks up more as it cures because of the bigger gaps in between the fibres. I often add a bit of glue first to let it soak in beforehand then do the normal glue up process. That being said gluing end to end with no joinery at all is never a good idea especially with anything that will take even a moderate load.

      For sure. Just cut a hair ahead of the line so you can tune it in with your handplane if it doesn't break cleanly. Different woods break off cleaner than others,and if you do have trouble just cut a hair deeper and that will help with it I have learned. Thanks for watching.

    Have you got a blade in there instead of a marking pin?

    • @Juan-hr7ol
      @Juan-hr7ol 2 місяці тому

      Yes sir. They make two different ones. From what I have learned from reading over the years, the pin kind is mainly used like how I did here. With the grain. Makes the line easier to see and the blade kind you want to use across the grain like whenever you are cutting dovetails. It severs the wood cleanly unlike the pin kind, so you have a nice edge. This is just another way to use the blade kind.
