- This video shows how I prefer to make window sill so they appear as one continuous piece of wood.

Nice vid! Well explained and executed. I'd like to see a wide shot at the end of the installed sill.
What he said - been useful to have actually seen the full effect of the installed finished product.
Just a shame you didn’t show the finished product
Why?
Really polished video. Well done :) Looking forward to more.

Yeah this is quite a clever way to do it, additionally if you look at Woody Hyezmar’s woodworking methods (google him) you’ll find creative alternatives and ideas.
Cool video. You make it all seem so easy. I am sure I would mess it up. I might need to start with big box store pine.
I'm sure you'd do a great job! pine would be a cheaper way to learn the technique and that might be the look your going for.
But it is honestly a really simple and useful joint. the miter joint is also very handy when working with veneered sheet goods.
Perhaps in another video!
Window stool.
Am I crazy to attempt this with a circular saw on a track?
I don’t see a problem with that. Use a fine, high tooth count blade and practice on a scrap piece first!
@@buildxyz I just made this with my circular saw. Had to make a dual edge guide so that I had both bevel and straight cut (mainly so I didn’t lose my straight cut), I dialled in my mitre saw to a dead on 45 degree bevel and mitre to make 45 degree reference blocks to setup my circular saw. Then with a high tooth blade I made the cut. Was super nervous, took 30 days for this 12mm North American White Oak to turn up, the lack of thickness didn’t help as the strip began to bend slightly once it was disconnected but the glue up seems to have worked
Looks nice! I believe there is a chance that the joint may weaken over time though as endgrain joins are not very strong. It would strengthen it if you added biscuits to the joints.
Forgot to say though that your channel is really good and I like your video editing style and your projects so far.
+ksp1278 thanks for the feed back.
This isn't and end grain joint, it is a long grain joint. I least that's what think. Any ohers want to weight in. here is an example of another long grain joint.

I believe this joint I super strong as is and I have tried to rip it apart during testing. a biscuit probably would make it stronger but I think it's not needed.

+buildxyz Yeah, you are right. Sorry, was early in the morning and I wasn't thinking straight!
Do you have a pic of finished window?
I really like the way you edit & verbal style in the videos.
You make great how-to and learn as I do style video's with tools that most wood workers will have.
You have a sexy plastic printer that most wont have though.
Subscribed as I love your style and workmanship.
Good job sir. Looking forward to more in the future.

Thank you for your positive comments! I enjoy making these videos so I will keep at it as long as their are good people like you watching.
The printer and laser cutter I have access to is a little out of the realm of the average hobbyist but it's unique and they are getting cheaper all the time.
