- A talk through video on the subject of devices an often lost word in joinery now often replaced with jig or template. A device is a piece of equipment used with a tool to create an element of joinery. In this case the devices are for mitres both cutting and trimming them.
In the video I mention the excellent book “Practical Modern Joinery” by George Ellis this is an excellent book. This 7th edition was published in 1928 I also have a 6th edition that was printed in 1924 very little changed between these two editions. I will I say tract down a first edition to look through.
Thankyou so much for watching please like and subscribe if you can. If I can grow the channel it will allow me to take time away from paid work to make more videos.

Lovely Stanley mitre box.
Yes it is now it was rough and missing a wheel when I got it. I stripped it down to tidy it up a bit and as I stripped it down the missing wheel dropped out. With the wheel back in and latches sorted it’s going nicely now.
Very useful information. I've got to make a set of the initial units shown for my hand sawing. Thanks for showing.
Saddle templates are so simple yet effective well worth it.
I've been looking for years for a slicing mitre box. I saw one an auction I attended after it was sold. It was an online auction and it went for a LOT of pretty pennies. Still looking.
This one is very old and needs some TLC to get it just right again. I had the blade sharpened which was a start.
If you have any more woodworking book recommendations, that would be a good video.
There’s plenty I will round some on the list up and make a video
The book video is now live.
