Most of the time, this allows us to get a small commision from the sale at no extra cost to you and is what helps us continue to post these videos for free. Thank you in advance! :)
Somehow I unexpectedly found you on UA-cam. Classically, videos on carpentry work are a demonstration of technological operations. And your videos are different in that they show how to think before performing technological operations. This is very valuable. Thank you!
Matt, Can I suggest that making/using a miter pairing jig would make a fabulously popular general video for the ME at-large channel? There is almoast nothing like this specific video, let alone one that addresses making the ‘tool’ or using the ‘tool’ used in pairing the miter. There are more applications than just the mitered dovetail as you know and the concept, principles, and use actually go far to building handwork skill. Just an idea where you are imminently positioned and probably the most winsome & communicative teacher to take this on. There’s a vacuum on this topic, I’d love to see you fill it. I and my family continue to keep you in our prayers. S/F. Shannon
Matt, when sawing off the mitres and catching the tail with the saw. Try a thin sacrificial sliver of wood in the gap balanced on the tail. Takes the impact of the saw and prevents hitting the tail. Cheers
I was watching this and thinking the same thing. I'm no where near as experienced just makes since, so glad you mentioned this so I could use it with less doubt about its effectiveness. Thank you for the great videos Matt

After watching several UA-cam woodworkers, you are the most thorough in your instructions. You leave no detail out. Amazing. Keep up the great work.
That tip about not fitting the base and top at the same time is a great call….. definitely something I would overlook and do 😂

Great knowledge checking the fit, the burnished areas to chisel brilliant thank you
Thank God for your existence brother. Can't wait for the journey🖤
Looking forward to this stage! nearly there. Great job as always Matt
Paring the mitres = 10/10 most satisfying UA-cam content out there
Great presentation, Matt. I really appreciate the close ups and that you're not afraid to display (and admit to) your mistakes.

Matt, this is like watching a professional TV program ! Extremely well edited ! Also superb craftsmanship !!
Stellar presentation. How many instructors would bother to take this project advisory on?
Great food for thought
Great video Matt, make it look so easy !
I want that shooting plane, but LN is out of them and don't know when they will be back. They have over 1000 on back order.....
What mallet are you using? One you made? looks handy!!
