    Wedged tenons provided strength, small tolerance of mortise sizing variation and a pleasing aesthetic contrast. All handy attributes for an item in use in a busy area of a home- or workshop. General design appeared robust, functional and aesthetically ok. Impressed with the description, tips and video. Thanks, I look forward to future videos. Gary

    I'm a novice at carpenter. I was trying to make a woodstool, and it was really hard to make a seven degree angle on my leg, but I can understand it after watching this video again and again. Thank you so much. Please post a lot of other things, too.~^^

    • @KevBotWorkshop
      @KevBotWorkshop  4 роки тому

      yes angles are obnoxious. I made a test out of pine so I could get them right. To help angles should be relatively close for the tilt of the legs and the cross bars.

    Hi Kevin! what is the length of that second router bit that you use for the seat? I think I need to buy one of those for the same reason as you, I want to do that same round seat but my straight bit is to short, like 1 1/4" or less..

  • @tjerkheringa937
    @tjerkheringa937 Рік тому

    You definitively need a bigger band saw. You need a bigger router. You need a large jointer and a belt sander and a big planer. I would even say that you also need decent CNC, a new Domino and a Shaper Origin. I hope new sponsors will line up. Also for a fancy table saw.

    Hello! I am building a stool currently and I ran into the same issue with my legs a little out of whack. When you fixed this did you run just one leg through the table saw blade?

    • @KevBotWorkshop
      @KevBotWorkshop  6 років тому

      You most likely have to adjust each leg to get it just right. What I did was do the opposite leg first and then work from there. Do a little at a time until you fix the wobble. Cheers

  • @ladykenja2700
