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.~^^
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
Really like the look and craftsmanship of those stools. You have definitely given me some techniques I want to try! Great job on both the project and the video!
Thats awesome!!! Yes the legs and the angles are a little tougher, thats why I practiced with some cheap pine first. Happy Building! Tag me in on instagram with your final result!
I have mad respect for people who use all hand tools. I have enough patience for woodworking but I think my patience has a limit cause hand tools would kill me haha
Well done!! The stool looks great. I'm currently making a stool using floating tenons. Thanks for showing how you made the seat, I"m going to use my router too.
Awesome John! Take your time with the router, I burnt out my old router while working on this project, but it saw a lot of work and it was time for a new one. So no worries this. Wag me on Instagram @kevbotworkshop I'd love to see the final product.!
Thanks Stuff! This is my earliest project so it was done before I had my shop lights. Now that I have them Ill have even better lighting and producing better looking videos. Thanks for watching!
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.
It can be done!!!!! No joke my guy people built stuff without power tools for a long time. Theres plenty of traditional woodworkers on YT. Just takes time and practice and not settling for flaws. I say go for it
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..
do you have any plans for this project? i'm trying to make my first set and having trouble with the angles and direction of cut for the legs to line up at the same height
I congratulate you for this beautiful work, is there any way to get the plans of these bar stools ?, I would like to make one for my work table, thank you very much !!!
Thank you Valentina! I actually dont have plans for the stools at the moment but will be sure to pass along information to people if I do in the future.
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?
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
I actually don't have plans for these built. At some point I think I am going to make them and then I will get them in a place for people to buy/or download for free.
SUPER JOB U GAVE ME A GREAT IDEEA I AM TALL AND MY KITCHEN TABLE WAS SHORT SO I PUT SOME WHEELS TO RISE IT BUT IN THE END THID CAME A LITTLE TALLER THAT I WANT IT TO BE ...SO IN ORDER TO PLEASE MY WIFE WHICH IS THE SAME A TALL WOMEN I DECIDED TO CONSTRUCT A TALL STOOL TO FIT WITH THE TABLE
Hey Kev, there's really creative hacks in here, awesome work! I've got some stools planned for our home, and your router sled idea is perfect for what I need to do. I'm going to add an extra degree of punishment and TURN the legs and spindles as well. Ha. I'll be watching this video again for sure, and I'll check ya on instagram too. Cheers!
- VERY, VERY nice pieces. It would be helpful in DIY stool projects, though, to give express directions on how to cut the compound leg end cuts. They're not easy to figure out.
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.
This guy: create bar stool
Also this guy: just squat anyway
good video man!
instablaster.
Nice Stools, Go Blue!
Thanks Nathan! Go Blue!
I hope you know that you are incredibly skillful.
Outstanding results!
thanks! I really needed that today. thank you for the kind words, really appreciate it
Your technique for leveling the stool saved my day!! Thanks for Sharing!!
You got it!
Good work. The way you overcame your lack of tools is awesome. I never would have thought of cutting out the curve that way.
O yeah, my shop is much more equipped now, but I still stand by that jig. Others have used it for backs to chairs too.
Love the creativity you've introduced with just limited tools (the table saw flattening really got me!) -- a true inspiration. Thank you!
Thanks Lee! Yes I try to show ways people can build without all the fancy tools! Keep Building Brother!
@dakemi725 Agreed but nice design and video. Thanks heaps.
Kevin, great job for a wolverine ad a little scarlet and gray to your attire and it would be super great !!!
Haha thanks! little backhanded.. but ill take it

Great build. Also great hat. 42-27!

Thank you for the kind words Mark! Tag me on insta with some of your finished projects!
Those stools look great. Like the way it all came together in the video and explanation during the build
Aahh very good idea there to use table saw to make the stool legs balance.
Thanks, I picked it up somewhere, not sure where
You are very dedicated. I would have stopped with the pine mock-up 😂
pretty sure that pine mock up would have imploded as soon as I tried to sit on it
Love your design. I've done the seats so far. Now onto the legs (little daunting).
Thats awesome!!! Yes the legs and the angles are a little tougher, thats why I practiced with some cheap pine first. Happy Building! Tag me in on instagram with your final result!
Wow!!! it’s really amazing chairs!!!
Thanks! super comfy. Ill have plans for them in the future.
Looks nice.
You sir disserve more subscribers... great work
Thanks Yaniv!
that was an amazing job man 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Mardak!
Ive made stools like these with hand tools, but the way you made this is so well, congratulations.
I have mad respect for people who use all hand tools. I have enough patience for woodworking but I think my patience has a limit cause hand tools would kill me haha
Hey mate.first time viewer, and subscriber here.they are lovely looking stools.great job.looking forward to watching some of your other projects 😀
Thanks for the sub!
Nice work.
Really nice. After watching your coffee table build and then this I had to sub.
Awesome thanks!!! I have other good ones too!
Very nice job
Just what is my next project would be...a new subsciber now.
great video production and superb woodworking craftsman skills. really enjoy your work.
Thanks Chef, I hope to have more for you really soon.
good job
Thanks
Great woodworking information. You are very talented. Thank you
Thanks H S!
This is so inspiring! I love the creative thinking you used to achieve your goals with limited resources! I'll be watching your yt journey 👍
Great video. Using the table saw to trim the uneven leg is genius! The wedge cuts in the tenons are to long imo.
First time doing wedges for me Id look to do them nicer anytime i do in the future. Table saw trick I saw somewhere but it worked perfectly.
Perrrrrrfect. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Zombie!
Showing love to your channel!
Thanks for love cmar. Love ya back!

These f’n angles are hard as hell to figure out!!, it took me 5 hours just to build the build the bottom section and I kreged everything together.
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.
Love it
Thanks Ajmi!
Great video. I need to make some unusually tall stools for a high bar top and this is exactly what I need.
Glad I could help! would love to see the final product AT me on Insta @kevbotworkshop
I am about to make a stool and i just realize that I must be a genius to try this with only a hand saw, a hand drill and a hand sander. oh my gosh! 🙄🙄
It can be done!!!!! No joke my guy people built stuff without power tools for a long time. Theres plenty of traditional woodworkers on YT. Just takes time and practice and not settling for flaws. I say go for it
Congrats on the shoutout! Christofix sent me! 😇😎
Thanks!! And thanks for stopping by! Hope you enjoy your stay
@@KevBotWorkshop I did and thanks! 😇😎
Good looking stools. Great job.
Thanks Milton!
AMAZING
Your band saw has a small drift to the Right
Fully agree, that little one did, and my new big one does too. Gotta get around to fixing that
Really nice work. Keep the videos coming!
Thanks Rick! More to come!
great job matey
Thanks Darryl!
1:08 or, setup a chainsaw mill.
O yeah that would have definitely helped. I have a bandsaw now
invest in some japanese pull saws, you'll be amazed
got one since then. Love it
great videos. hope to see more form you!
Thanks Joe! More projects coming. Hopefully get one out sometime next week!
Hi, man...awesome your work...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks man! stay tuned for more over the next week or so
Very nice
Thanks!
can you post what is needed and measurements to build the jig?
desde Uruguay, te felicito. Lastima el idioma!!
Very nice craftsmanship. Do you have any plans available for laymen such as myself
As of right now I dont, but stay tuned as I am starting to put together plans for other builds and I may just do this in time.
The main question is the plans i need them
Sorry for the delay, Im gonna work on some plans hopefully in the near future.
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..
Great work! It's too bad the bowties had to be on the underside.
Actually there is one on top, sorry I didn’t show it in the video. I do have a picture of it on my Instagram
Great Vid, do you have a plan of the saddle bar stool?
As of right now I don't, but I am in the process of making plans for my tool storage unit and this one will closely follow. Stay tuned!
Hey Kev what thickness are the legs?
2x2 inch
do you have any plans for this project? i'm trying to make my first set and having trouble with the angles and direction of cut for the legs to line up at the same height
Currently I dont. Just remember all the angles are repeated across the whole thing.
Great job any plans on this stool?
Unfortunately no Luke, but most of it is making it to the size you need.
I congratulate you for this beautiful work, is there any way to get the plans of these bar stools ?, I would like to make one for my work table, thank you very much !!!

How it lines up? It doesn't line up you need to consider 2 angles not just one when the legs are splayed in both directions.
it is considered, I do an x and y angle with the miter saw
Nice job despite that awful hat and sweatshirt
Thanks James, and Go Blue! ;)

Punishment?! Sounds like a great adventure to me! Would love to see the final stools though, tag me on insta when they are done!
That seat jig was pretty dope ngl
Thanks! ive seen it used to make chair backs and thought it was perfect
Beautiful work!
skilled, methodical craftsman.

haha thanks man! my shop has grown tremendously since that build so we are in better hands but theres always room for sponsors ;)
This is a beautiful design and extremely well made. Thanks for sharing your work.
Thanks for watching!
Very nice stool 👏👏👏👏👏
awesome build!
Thanks Durso! YOU'RE awesome!
These stools are beautiful, almost too beautiful for a workshop.
Haha Yeah I've dinged them up a little bit out there. Ill probably clean them up and put them at a bar some day.
The repeating music is infuriating.
duly noted
Amazing!!
Thanks Andre!
