As a roofing chippy I love throwing a few angles together..But this kind of joinery is on a completely different level, simply stunning, in my opinion its literally going to be a work of art..Super stuff! 👍
Everywhere I look on the web at present seems to be nothing but violence and people doing horrific things to other people. It is great to be able to come to this man’s updates and see a good, highly-skilled craftsman doing something positive, long-lasting and of value far greater than the price. The world needs good people like you to make it a better place.
A while ago I made a few half-lap joints and was chuffed that I couldn’t see much daylight through them. Ollie’s joints aren’t just joinery, they’re mind boggling magic.
Picasso painted. One skill. Paint and a brush. What you do with wood is more than one skill and in my humble opinion, much more beautiful than a Picasso painting. Thanks so much for sharing and I will look forward to the next installment. Just like I did with the green oak framing for the porch roof.
a skilled joiner learns his trade from others and applies his knowledge. Picasso and other artists invented ideas and changed perception itself, influencing society across the world for probably the rest of time. Your comment betrays a lack of understanding for both endeavors
No, he claimed painting was “only one skill” which it absolutely is not. Picasso was also a draftsman, sculptor, photographer and video maker as well anyway. What is implied in his comment is that there is more skill in this joinery. This isn’t factually correct even if he doesn’t like picassos work. The best joiners don’t hold a candle to the best artists. And this isn’t even close to the best joinery I’ve seen. Not taking anything away from this man’s work, but I’ve seen the gunstock stile doors and frames done to a higher standard (less gaps) with purely handtools.
@@tequila_tibbs7938 painting is only one skill as for the fact that Picasso had many more strings to his bow is irrelevant and maybe joinery is to only one skill but the end results of a good joiner ( as is being displayed here ) he thinks and so do I required more skill than pushing a brush around a canvass to produce an image the end result of both peoples work will carry favour with different people u obviously love Picasso,s work and hold him in high regard that’s ur prerogative we both hold the work of this joiner in equal if not more regard that’s our prerogative and as for influence I think joinery has made a greater impact on people’s lives than any painting
I am a cabinet maker who works in solid; I know a thing or two about joinery. I have also studied and have myself painted. Painting is not “one skill”. If you hold this man’s joinery in as high regard as Picasso work then that is indeed up to you. But as I said originally, it betrays a lack of understanding of both endeavours
I'm a fully qualified carpenter and I've never done a massive amount of bench joinery but have to say the satisfaction you must get after all joints are cut and you assemble it for the first time must be next level love the door frame and your work is worth whatever you want 👍craftsman
Outstanding, your ability to visualise the work as you go is impressive, its a unique trait. Thankyou so much for documenting this build, it's quite a work of art and I'm learning a lot 🍻
Yes you are right its a beautiful wood, showing beautiful joints, a display of your high skill level, fantastic result....... then you are going to paint it. Obviously the customers wishes, appreciate the videos, enjoy watching you work, thanks.
I totally agree with you “what a beautiful thing”. I know nothing of wood work or joinery but understand quality like no other when I see it. The level of perfectionism you work to is a customers dream. When you look at ordinary houses it awful the level of work with imperfections they work to and think people are OKwith it or don’t bitice it. I’m certainly looking forward to your next video as want to see the finished piece. Wow stuff!😮❤
Beautiful joinery and mind-boggling intersections and angles. Glad you're as impressed as we are. I suspect I will have a tear in my eye when it gets painted.
As a joiner with over thirty years experience in purpose made joinery, I'm picking up an immense amount of quality tips from your videos keep up the great work and I also require a new tenon saw.
Absolutely superb work, there’s a lot of thought and passion gone into machining and cutting of those joints. That’s as good as it gets, you obviously served your time with some great tradesmen 👍👍
Loved watching this quality workmanship, and so nice to see traditional tools and methods being used (apart from the router right at the end) 😂 #PrayForOlliesTenonSaw
Stunning work as usual, Ollie. Woodwork taken to high art, indeed. Yes we could fund for a new tenon saw, but I bet you'd still use the old one. 😂👍✌ Keep up the awesome work.
Hi David, Thankyou Ever so much for the Super Thanks. I cannot believe i missed it until now, its been quite the few months for me. Thanks and good health to you
English and european craftsmen were the best up until the 1970s. The current obsession with japanese joinery is based on fetishization of the exotic. All the most significant and complex furniture was made by french, british, dutch etc. Popular youtube craftsman do not hold a candle to the craftsman of the european past
As usual mate spot on job, like you I specialize in one off jobs like this as I prefer the challenge of this type of work it gets the old grey matter working ! How come you've gone for Sapele on this occasion as I know that you normally prefer your ACCOYA ? I do work with ACCOYA myself like you but I do tend to opt for Hardwood or Oak for entrance doors as I find that if people are coming in and out with pushchairs/wheelchairs and shopping baskets it can get dinged a bit to easy being so soft and brittle. I assume that you opt not to mortise all the way through Ollie to prevent moisture being drawn up the end grain. Kev P.S Are they chrome vanadium chisels I've not seen them in years it used to be the Stanley Black handled ones that where chrome vanadium my dad had those in his kit ! Never rusted.
Did you make those huge chisel guides yourself on the miter saw, or are they a commercial item? I assume you made them, although I've not found aluminum angle here that is that large, or that square.
Don’t malign your tenon saw too much, I’m in my eighties and I’ve got a few teeth missing as well. By the way, are those Ashly Isles chisels you are using? I have a set of their dovetail chisels and they are great.
I am amazed you have such a crappy tenon saw and you have a billion dollars worth of power tools in the shop. Too bad Festool doesn't make a tenon saw, if they did you would have one me thinks. BTW, that wood looks like a joy to work hand tools with.
Yeah... I can understand your not looking to replace your miter saw with missing teeth; I haven't replaced mine either, though admittedly I've done a terrible job sharpening it, and it's missing every tooth on one side (and not because I used it to remove aluminum hardware embedded in fibreglass). I haven't any explanation why [the person who borrowed mine] specifically thought that there was an invisible tooth sticking out from one side, when tip of _the spine_ left its imprint on both sides of the blade every time it stopped them. But they went at my saw with every {stone, hammer and wheel} available on the advice of some usenet forum, because even with it punishing them for every attempt it _was_ easier to cut a straight-line with than their crosscut saw. Actually thinking critically about it now, I have no idea why didn't use their radial arm-saw. I know that worked, and had fresh blades.
Absolutely superb work! One question, how the hell do you imagine a joint like that? I can see and appreciate what you’re doing but how do you start? By the way, does sawdust from sapele give you a sore throat?

As a fully qualified watcher of exceptional joinery video's. I have to say your work is beyond exceptional Ollie...

He only said he preferred ollies joinery aphetically to Picasso,s artwork which I agree with
No, he claimed painting was “only one skill” which it absolutely is not.

It's a blessing when you can admire your own work - which is, of course, is exceptional.

Brilliant craftsmanship 👍
Fantastic work👌
Wish I was young enough to re educate myself in this sort of woodworking, superb.
its coming together lovely
Beautiful joinery and mind-boggling intersections and angles. Glad you're as impressed as we are. I suspect I will have a tear in my eye when it gets painted.
You are so skilled…. A real pleasure to watch.
Starting to look the part! Excellent work. Cheers. Jim
I bloody love this channel
Beautiful work.
Beautiful joinery.
Wonderful traditional joinery, great chisel work 👌🏻
Every time a joy to watch great workmanship! Bravo…🎉
The frame is looking very smart Olly 👍
Superb again Ollie. I don't expect anything else. Loving the progress. Cheers 🍻
A work of art 👍🏿
As a joiner with over thirty years experience in purpose made joinery, I'm picking up an immense amount of quality tips from your videos keep up the great work and I also require a new tenon saw.
Each individual bit looks so good but together it’s amazing. Inspiring stuff, might go and chisel something in the garage when I’ve finished my brew.
Absolutely superb work, there’s a lot of thought and passion gone into machining and cutting of those joints. That’s as good as it gets, you obviously served your time with some great tradesmen 👍👍
The planning that must go into this is epic, you just know what you are doing and it's fantastic to watch!
I love a joint
Looking awesome will be worth it 👌
Incredible
This is going to be worth every penny of the asking price .
Amazing!

Hi David, Thankyou Ever so much for the Super Thanks. I cannot believe i missed it until now, its been quite the few months for me. Thanks and good health to you
Nice job .
Beautiful piece of work, shame to hide those joints with paint, top job 👍
There are many "wow" when watching your craftmanship - "The European Ishitani"

Impressive indeed
Nice!
Just wow
Amazing !!!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😇😇😇😇😇 Great video !!!
Bootiful job, bootiful joints and a bootiful repair. You are counting 17 years from when you started woodwork in senior school? 🌞
Wonderful work, as always! OBTW it’s actually possible to resharpen a tenon saw…😉
Lie Neilson makes some really nice tenon and carcass saws here in the U.S. You may know of them. They also make some great planes.
Ollie, you usually opt for accoya for this type of job. Interested in why Sepele ? Congratulations on those joints !
Mate! 👏🏼
Paul Sellers would be proud.
Satisfying? I've grown an inch just watching the alignment in your joinery 🤣
Matt this made me actually lol! 😂😂😂🤣
@@BradshawJoinery hehe

It's reassuring to see you have the same problems as us guys 😅
Can’t add much to other comments
Just magic in perfection where half a mill just isn’t close enough
Onward
Don’t malign your tenon saw too much, I’m in my eighties and I’ve got a few teeth missing as well. By the way, are those Ashly Isles chisels you are using? I have a set of their dovetail chisels and they are great.
The only thing I share in common with Oliver is that I own some tools...
Awesome work, just a shame the customer wishes to paint it.
what did you make after dinner
Hardup joiner needs tennon saw

Hi. I will gladly start your fond for a new saw, with the first £100,-, just advice me how to transfer them to you😀 Regards Marcus

I struggle
Then I find gluing up like a mad panic no matter how organised I try and be 😂

Norm Abrams love child...
👊🫡
You need to get a decent woodworkers bench that one bounces around too much
So nice seems such a shame to have to paint it an hide all that lovely character.
🇬🇧🇩🇰😁
I would give you my saw, but it only cuts in inches, sorry
