I know you are Samurai, and vastly more experienced than me. I also know about "foreshortening" by cameras, but I still recoil in terror (nearly sloshed my Scotch out of the glass) whenever you reach over a spinning blade to retrieve a board. This is an observation, not an admonishment. I love your channel.
All well and good, Samurai. And I love your videos and enthusiasm and craftmanship. …BUT always let the top rail/horizontal part of the window frame go through and use a hidden tenon to protect the end grain of the vertical rail from the water. Makes it all last a lot longer. Greetings from Germany from a fellow carpenter…
your little boy summed it up as plain as day......you are incredible with timber...........im glad your mate keeps you focused......no dark crap Samurai.....all the best
One great thing about the off grid cabin build…. You’re no longer the Sumo carpenter lol. Dropping the Covid weight. 👍🏼😈👍🏼. Your camera guys funny too.
That's a nice looking window, man. Well done. And your boys sure thought so! I remember being about 12 when my Dad and uncle John built an upstairs extension on our house. It was truly a formative, positive experience for me. Watching this series brings back fond memories, (back when I learned that I could walk up a ladder with four mugs of tea!)
My house has antique casement windows. The sash has a shallow groove routed along the length of the top and outside sides so any wind-driven will run out the bottom instead of pooling up against the frame at the top of the sash and finding its way in. If you end up having issues, you can add that with a hand router.
Glue and sawdust: after the fact precision. Until the glass arrives, you can build some scrap softwood frames of exactly the same geometry, stick some transparent foil on both sides using double-sided sticky tape, and, depending on the transparency of the foil you use, you'll have a temporary replacement that's quite functional - thermally, air isolates almost exactly as the argon they put in window panes, it's just worse at sound insulation. You don't need an hour to build those temporary panes. Since they don't need to last more than a few months, you can even leave them unfinished.
Hey Jess, instead of glass, you could consider polycarbonate (a.k. Lexan) This stuff blocks U.V, has insulating properties and will not break/shatter. In Australia it is also available with a tint to reduce glare which is probably not a problem so much in Canada. This material could be bedded in with Sikaflex or similar.. Cheers, Rob.
I enjoy your postings. Very informative. One concern I have particularly for people who are new to the table saw is safety. I noticed you did not use a splitter, a guard, or push block on any of your table saw cuts.
his videos are not based around beginner table saw safety. Some things are earned over time. I would LOVE to see you to wonder onto a jobsite and mention this to a crew
Haha, I was already enjoying your video (nice shop, nice kit, and some nice woodworking!) when your two boys came in - I've just spent the whole of this last week in my own shop, doing a shelving unit for a customer, and my two boys have been visiting me. Like yours, they're at that perfect age when they're old enough to be interested in what I'm doing and young enough to be super impressed. Your video was like an echo of my week, but with an American accent, lol! Happy days, and best regards from the UK.
Hey! I'm happy to see this small cabin type work again, you're doing some really nice work with this. On the next windows maybe you could do an episode where you go into some more details on what joinery and how you get it to come out so nice.
Bro, LOVE your videos! And for the glass arriving late, try chucking some plexi in there until the glass arrives. You can cut it to whatever shape you need and protect from the weather at the same time!
Jesse, this has to be one of my most favourite videos I've seen from you in a long time. Excellent planning and execution, with a bit of humour thrown in for good measure. Keep it up!
Great video, but man, use a push stick! I have three friends with missing fingers. Want to see you keep yours. I'm half deaf too so good to see the hearing protection.
I've been enjoying your videos. One grievance is the orientation of your ear protection on your head. I'm a staunch believer in having the band on the back of my head. I'm willing to let this go, but it seemed really important to voice this concern on behalf of humanity. Cheers!
Like I have said on a few occasions. You have skills. For whatever reason I cannot explain , I only watch your videos when your working in your shop. 🤔 Thats Odd on my part. 🇨🇦
Nice work on those windows Jesse! I assume the glass that you are using for those windows is tempered glass & double paned? Anyway, looking forward to the follow up video! 👍😉
God Dammit ! I’m not going to ask again and now I’m not asking I’m telling you Please build a corner casement window with out a center post in the window. 3-0 X 6-0 window with a 90% right angle frame , so when the window is cranked out the whole opening is open .
Used a push stick last night...
I've got your video playing in the background while I do computer work, literally choked on my coffee. 😂😁👍

I'm so stoked that you're releasing videos frequently again. Love this series.
Same
Same same
This man's skill level is beyond amazing. Everything always looks amazing. Thank you for the video.
Those kids are paid actors. My kid thinks everything I do is dumb.
😂ditto.
lmao
Your sons are first class hype men. “Best window I’ve ever seen…”
And his kids probably don't realize, it really is likely the best window they've ever seen!
Wait until they are old enough to get the joke after they remind him to use a push stick…..lol
Give those boys an Emmy! Their delivery of the script was flawless! ☺
All well and good, Samurai.
And I love your videos and enthusiasm and craftmanship.
…BUT always let the top rail/horizontal part of the window frame go through and use a hidden tenon to protect the end grain of the vertical rail from the water.
Makes it all last a lot longer.
Greetings from Germany from a fellow carpenter…
Dude, nothing better than the kids coming in and telling you how awesome you are! That’s the best!
your little boy summed it up as plain as day......you are incredible with timber...........im glad your mate keeps you focused......no dark crap Samurai.....all the best
Your kids are awesome, so supportive and loving. Shows what an amazing parent you are…
I love the relationship you and your BIL have. Great times!
One great thing about the off grid cabin build…. You’re no longer the Sumo carpenter lol. Dropping the Covid weight. 👍🏼😈👍🏼. Your camera guys funny too.
Seriously Jesse, how much are you down?
Agreed! Camera man is hilarious.
Who's the camera guy?!?!
love the energy between you guys, makes it fun!
You sons deserve a raise in their allowances after that endorsement.
Love how supportive your kids are ❤❤
I have used greenhouse panels cut to size for temporary windows in some historic building restorations and they worked great.
That's a nice looking window, man. Well done. And your boys sure thought so! I remember being about 12 when my Dad and uncle John built an upstairs extension on our house. It was truly a formative, positive experience for me. Watching this series brings back fond memories, (back when I learned that I could walk up a ladder with four mugs of tea!)
See those old machine work better than new ones all the time, that's when things were made to last!
I've always wanted to make my own window frames and door. So now i have inspiration .
When I read the title my first thought was ‘Great, but how do you see through solid wood?’ Now it’s perfectly clear (pun 8n tended).
Comme d habitude. Super travail. Merci pour toutes ces vidéos.

I have to admit I was unaware of the comedic value these videos provide. 5 stars
Great looking windows. Can you get acrylic sheets as an interim solution?
Those were my thoughts aswell
Plexi would be about $250 for all 3 windows...

Scratches easily, no?
@@tycox8704 no, Lexan is fairly scratch resistant. Not as hard as glass, but much better than regular acrylic.
What is the price difference? I was surprised to find out how expensive non-glass windows are compared to normal glass.
It’s far more expensive than the glass. Even 1/4” plexiglass was more expensive.
Yes poly or plex is way expensive than glass
That’s a great use of that fir that’s been sitting around for a while
"Not many finishes you can do THAT with, without passing out" - quote of the month! :)
I liked the "I used a push stick on your mom last night" better..lol
Damn! Those frames look great! Samurai strikes again. Wasn't sure I'd get into this series, I was dead wrong. Amazing craftsmanship.
You could always install some of that heat shrink winter plastic into the window frames. Would be pretty clear and wouldn’t flap in the wind.
Beautiful. That old growth lumber is awesome.

I noticed that as well .I don't think he cares .
New or not. Use a push stick or something. I've seen a few horrendous table saw accidents. Happens to fast.
I've seen a lot of bike accidents too. It does not mean everyone needs training wheels. Work smart
and by "splitter" does he mean a writhing knife?

Nice approach to your windows, sorry I wasn't able to have provided a couple tips.
Looking forward to seeing your handmade latches.
An idea for the upper loft... Hinge it so that it can fold up against the wall when not needed for sleeping.
KILLER WINDOWS ‼️‼️. Vinny 🇺🇸
came for the project stayed for the banter.. you guys are hilarious..
What a Craftsman thankyou for sharing!!!
those frame bars can support a whole building :)
Cool build, thank you for showing how the window is made.
That's a good friend. Pizza is always welcomed in my shop!
Your kids are so supportive it's making me want to be a dad.
Would be nice to add screens to your new windows. Enjoying your channel more than ever. Thanks
Great windows! You inspire me. Can't wait for the next one.
I love how your kids were totally hamming it up for the camera!
Awesome adventure! Great to see you pumping out some great content..again!
Very nice. Your work always looks beautiful and top notch.
Very nice project, too bad about the glass, it will be worth the wait. I am enjoying the cabin build and learning something too.
Not too shabby for your first ever windows!
Appreciate your activity these days man, was missing it!
Window looks beautiful, as usual.
the dynamic you two have is great and makes these educational vids now entertainional 😎👍
Those windows are sick
Jesse, this has to be one of my most favourite videos I've seen from you in a long time. Excellent planning and execution, with a bit of humour thrown in for good measure. Keep it up!
Really nice job….. the OG is beautiful!
You could use a couple sheets of either acrylic or Lexan until your permanents come in.
trapezoids get real ornery when you call them triangles. you're a brave man. build is looking great.
I love all the great wood you use!
WOW, nice window!
1:34 Jessie's upper forehead "I haven't seen sunlight for ten yeeeaarrrs.."
You are an amazing craftsman
Beautiful windows.
I like building windows but I've not done any with moving parts. Nice work man.
Also a big fan of the OG VG!
Beautiful lumber!
08:18 humming “final countdown”, a 80’s from Sweden…. I obviously easily get distracted 😂, let’s continue watching fine wood art
Frigging Awesome!!
Incredible attention to detail 👌🏼
Great video, but man, use a push stick! I have three friends with missing fingers. Want to see you keep yours. I'm half deaf too so good to see the hearing protection.
Stand up comedy and woodworking...Love it 🤣🤣
Love the Canadian flag sticker on the table saw....!
Just cute some plexi, won’t inflate, but at least keep wind and rain out.
Beautiful work, dude! Really well done! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Put some plexiglass in the frames until the glass arrives! Will at least keep the weather out and still allow for the view.
I've been enjoying your videos. One grievance is the orientation of your ear protection on your head. I'm a staunch believer in having the band on the back of my head. I'm willing to let this go, but it seemed really important to voice this concern on behalf of humanity. Cheers!
Your normal voice is much better than the rough western hero voice you do in all other videos.
Looks sweet!
Lovely as always but you're freaking me out, it looks like you're about to grab that table saw blade!
Nice work love the shop 👍
Could you find an old sheet of glass like an old shower and cut some temporary panes out of that till your actual glass comes
"Sash, or whatever the hell you call it" first time I laughed all day, great video, keep them coming.
Like I have said on a few occasions. You have skills.
For whatever reason I cannot explain , I only watch your videos when your working in your shop. 🤔 Thats Odd on my part. 🇨🇦
What about putting in temporary plexiglass windows? Just a thought. Nice job as always!!
The price of plexiglass makes it impractical IMHO. it might even be more expensive then the glass itself in my personal experience
You should have had Alec do the latches!
GENIUS!!!!
Not sure damascus latches would look right 😆
Guess they are not in contact any more. As i recall, Jesse is a bit angry about Alec...
What’s he mad at Alec about?
@@bluecruiser3790 Dunno exactly, i read something in the comments on both UA-cam Films back then...
But if the windows are solid wood, how will you see outta them?
Special Samurai Goggles…
Fantastic!
Man, your boys really earned their allowance for this episode. Laid it on pretty thick though. Ha!
Love this.
It's hard finding good help. Jesse, we all understand what is like working with family! 🤣🤣🤣
Nice work on those windows Jesse! I assume the glass that you are using for those windows is tempered glass & double paned? Anyway, looking forward to the follow up video! 👍😉
Isn’t it great to have your kids judge your work? Good job, Dad!!
That’s EEPPIICC!
“It’s EPIC!”
God Dammit ! I’m not going to ask again and now I’m not asking I’m telling you Please build a corner casement window with out a center post in the window. 3-0 X 6-0 window with a 90% right angle frame , so when the window is cranked out the whole opening is open .
I have a window project coming up, and I really like those sliding hinges. Can you tell us about them?
nice work......"nice wood"......................
When you show the grain, that not Only talks about the quality of the wood it self also the mittersaw cutting disck right?
great content
Awesome vid, love the channel. Reckon your camera man could take a note out of your sons book. Positivity💪
