    Matt, I think this is one of the first no lumbering videos I've seen you do. Gotta say, its really, really nice following along with you in how and why you are doing this or that. Also nice that you edit it so well that I don't have to lunge for volume control, and spend time on things that need time to show/explain, and abbreviate those that are more commonly understood. Also nice that it seems to move at a nice clip and you don't seem to be trying to extend run time for YT monetization.

    Matt, it a nice video. Full of joy as all your videos 😀
    A couple of questions if possible. What is the with of the bench? And why the lower crest rail has a continious slot and dividing inserts while the upper rail has separately routed mortises? Could you have made continious slots in both rails instead?

    This bench has subtle curves that must make it very comfortable, maybe one day I will learn to make mortises and tenons that align perfectly like you seem to be making so easy, even with those subtle angles...too much for me, I never can align something so perfect! Great job...question ; How many hours it took yo to make this awesome bench?

    • @mcremona
      @mcremona  4 роки тому

If your wife gets to keep this one, I hope she truly appreciates the effort needed to make one of these to those standards. Not just raw hours, but the talent and planning that goes into one-off fine furniture.

    Hey Matt,
    I once commissioned a carpenter to build me a SouthWestern Tit-a-tat. It looked much like your bench, but with a tray in the middle, separating the 2 users. We used the stationary tray for placing our drinks but ESPECIALLY for holding an ashtray for smokers. The side arm rests had a round opening, with a catch underneath, for holding our beers. It lasted about 15 years in our hot Arizona sun.
    Just wanted to share that memory with you. Stay safe and healthy.
