RWW 166 Hand Tool Shortcuts
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 вер 2013
- When you woodwork all by hand you need to find some shortcuts to speed up the processes that normally we would do with power tools. In this episode I show a shortcut where you can skip shooting the ends of a board and create a new reference surface for all your joinery layout.
What shortcuts do you take in your work?

Very informative, being relatively new to hand woodworking tips like this are good to know. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Good wishes, Dave UK
Mind blown...
The way you look at this whole process is really eye opening, thank you so much for sharing, it changed the way i look at what is important and what is less important when processing the wood and making things symmetrical.
My shortcut is subscribing to your channel. Great insights; I find it fascinating to uncover the ways 18th century woodworkers could be so prolific. BTW, just read your article on buying exotic woods to support smart wood producers in the tropics; VERY well done. I will share it widely. Thanks.
Very nice video, great point of view
I really enjoy watching your videos, well done mate !
Great common sense approach Shannon, thanks for sharing it.
Use a rebate plane to bring to thickness only where joinery will be. With few exceptions the thickness is not important.
When cutting the tenon, saw around the shoulder then chisel/split the tenon from the end grain, use a router plane to clean up.
That would work as well but the more tenon you have the stronger the joint so I have gotten into the habit of making it slightly longer and trimming to fit regardless of whether it is blind or through.
Thank you for the advice.

If you strike a line 5mm on one end of your timber and then mark your work of that it works better especially when building frames etc .
I don't layout tails on all sides of the board. Just a front face and end. I lean saw slightly into the wast at opposite face then later square up with chisel.
Talking about milling - I never bother to smooth the sides of boards that will never been seen in a finished product. The last thing they ever see is my scrub plane.
Shannon, this makes perfect sense to time saving for me however, there are a few with thumbs down that they don't agree with this video, I wonder why?
Thanks for this good presentation.
ronin4711 5% thumbs down is OK, you're preaching to the choir. 20% you're saying something interesting and bold.
It wasn't me not agreeing, I guess 5 other people... thanks for the +
Yes, antiques are known to have rough interiors.
I find whenever I don't square up all sides it comes back to bite me.
Not sure if you have ever addressed this, and I realize this is a older video so maybe things have changed. But, how do you make your living? Is woodworking a hobby, do you make enough off youtube and other media to cover you, do you make furniture, or other stuff from wood? Just curious, if a person can make a living woodworking with hand tools? Can you produce enough objects to sell, fast enough to actually make money?
that maderan use?
I guess that should have been my question...whether or not that 1/16" or 1/8" more makes a difference. I hope you know I'm not trying to split hairs here either. I honestly didn't know how much it mattered. Thanks for the response.
Why not mark the first tenons at 2-7/16 or 2-3/8 instead of 2-5/8? Was it because they're through tenons? If not couldn't you just mark it short and not even worry about it?
I don't like that 'A' shaped layout square you have. A framing square lets you drop one leg down to hook onto the edge of the work. A try square has one thick blade that also hooks the edge of the work. If I were to make a wood square, I'd make it with a thick blade like a try square. An angled brace could still be installed if you wanted. BTW, what are those pieces you're working on going to be part of?
Dewalt planer and dust collection in a hand tool workshop?
hand tool shops create dust too, more than you might think. Granted its not the super fine, nasty stuff but still something to be concerned about if for no other reason than fire safety.
Doh. For a threadle lathe, 6S ... 4S ... 1S ... 0S, square faces are of no consequence, it's hand work, just make the joints fit and in the right direction.

Young one here( seventeen years old)... I wanna do this when I grow up... this stuff's freaking sweet!!! Unfortunately... I'm gonna have to rely on the table saw,router, jointer and planer (screw Powermatic) to make a sustainable living... but using hand tools will always be an ideal, and I'll of course do it when I CAN... Job my butt... the moment that woodworking becomes a job is the moment that I might as well noose myself( had to add in some 'kms' memes...).
