    I wish you had made this video about 3 years ago when I was first exploring using the spindle moulder as a tenoner - it would have saved me a lot of trial and error (and not to mention money!) I've always had a fairly small workshop and need each machine to perform as many functions as possible - I've often wondered about getting a dedicated tenoner, but having upgraded my spindle moulder to something with more power and usable spindle length, I've managed to make the machine do the work of a tenoner too. Whitehill have some great tools on offer which really helps - not sure what spindle moulder users would do without them!? Making windows is a particular joy once I got the right set of tooling and cutters - but it often needs videos like these to describe the process!

    • @DovetailTimberworks
      @DovetailTimberworks  2 роки тому

      I'm in the same boat. If someone gave me a nice tenoner I'd get out the shoehorn and fit it in I think, but the spindle really does work well for smaller runs and some say it's faster to set up than a 4 head.
      I actually have a simple window video in the works but am focused on timberframing for the next few months. I look foreward to getting back to it. Thank you for the comment, I really appreciate it.

    Great video and thanks for your efforts. I liked the tooling options although the costing does come into it. I had thought of getting some adjustable discs like “le ravageur” I’ve seen from France. You touched on the tolerances you allow for the mortices/tenons for different timbers and that would be interesting too. I don’t do much volume so the time to set it up puts me off sometimes plus finding the matching chisels for the morticer. I know it’s a narrow field but I do enjoy seeing the shaper work/milling on your channel. Cheers

    Hi Dovetail Timberworks. I cut my teeth on Wadkin EQ spindle moulders starting back in 1976. I see you also have an HOLZ HER stock feeder as well.
    Cut my teeth on those as well and used the Steff feed units as well. What microphone are you using? It's the best I've heard so far on YT. Great video. Tony

    • @DovetailTimberworks
      @DovetailTimberworks  Рік тому

      Thanks Tony, I love the EQ, it's such a lovely smooth machine to use. The big 4 wheel HH is a beast especially since I have a single phase motor on it. Id like to exchange it for a 600v 3ph unit as it would be much lighter and easier to set up. I'm not sure which mic I was using in this video, probably a small wired one, but I appreciate the feedback that it works for you!

    Awesome video! So informative!, Could you do a video on doing tennons on the spindle moulder without a sliding table?

    • @DovetailTimberworks
      @DovetailTimberworks  2 роки тому +1

      I could try, though it's a bit hard to do a tenon of any real length without a sliding carriage of some sort. The carriage does two things: it makes the movement relatively effortless, and holds the piece very firmly. There are some old school techniques that are frowned upon now too. 😬😬😳😳

    • @davydmir6565
      @davydmir6565 2 роки тому

      @@DovetailTimberworks very true! My mentors way of doing tennons is using a sacrificial fence and the running the work piece with a block behind it to stop break out. I recently finished a jig that can do tennons and angled tennons too!
      I'm interested in this because we are a ways off getting a sliding table for our spindle, we have a wadkin ber 3 and I was looking at buying the scmi sliding table but for now I am looking at other methods to keep us going.

    • @DovetailTimberworks
      @DovetailTimberworks  2 роки тому +1

      @@davydmir6565 That's one of the ones I was thinking of! 🙂 With a sturdy, well designed, robust "coping sled" type unit, you could reliably tenon in the range of an inch and a half I expect, more than that and you're dealing with a lot of back pressure and really have to focus on keeping it against the fence unless running in a miter slot. They Aigner jig would let you do tenons longer than cabinet door stubbies, but would have to think about the upper limit there. Regardless, you want chip limiting tooling for sure doing hand fed tenon work!

      Any shaper is better than no shaper, but all of those listed are pretty light weigh units and I would consider a heavier used one. SAC or SCM with a decent fence and a spindle that runs true would be good

      That is what is commonly called a "bolt on sliding table attachment". That one is made by Panhans and is fantastic. SCMI makes one too which is good but not as refined. Ebay UK has vintage ones from time to time.

      You usually have to have them made, though at one time they were common for machines as a factory option. I know people that just take a full length spindle to a machine shop and have them cut it short. I had a batch made for my big Wadkin and people are buying them.

      The ones shown are actually capable of a 69mm tenon. I got them because they were the widest I could use within the conventional fences on my shaper, without having to put the tenon hood on.

    Why do you keep on backing the wood through your cutter?

    • @DovetailTimberworks
      @DovetailTimberworks  8 місяців тому

      Mainly because it puts me back in a safe operator position where I can take the stock out without spinning cutter by my elbow, unguarded. With the settup as stuff and rigid as mine, there is never any issue at all. The cutting has already been done, so there's no contact on the back stroke. This is common practice on tenoners etc.
