Magnifique travail Monsieur, j'aime beaucoup vos explications, un excellent exemple de ce que nous pouvons faire avec de vieux outils qui seront toujours au Top..Bravo, salutations de France👋👋👋
Hello Graham, so wonderfull to see old traditional woodworking techniques in this day of power tools, jigs and idiots. Retired cabinet maker now, in Canada just a glorified production worker dealing with morons in the shop. None could understand my 60 plus handplanes, handsaws, and real cabinet chisels, not to mention my books from Tage Frid, Krenov, Ian Kirby and the lust goes on. You are welcomed sight to true cabinet making and traditional tools! Thankyou again Graham. Bryan from Canada.
This is the best video of yours I have watched since I came across your channel. No one seems to be showing how to make beautiful things. Just general joinery skills. That is wonderful but this was enjoyable because it was less about just using old tools and more about style and technique.
Hi Graham - so glad I happened to check my UA-cam subscriptions for updates and noticed your live stream in progress. Fascinating to watch the process, and you always explain everything so clearly. Thank you for sharing your knowledge; these videos are so inspiring.
I’ve just purchased a set of John Mosely evens and would love to see more videos showing uses of hollows & rounds. I came here on a recommendation from Rex Kruger and so glad I did!
Fantastic,I'm very intriqued to learn your technique ,so I can apply them to my hobby,building cedar strip canoes and kayaks,From The Great White North ,Canada,Hey,I,Hey!
Linen fold has always been my favourite form of decoration when I go round National Trust properties here in the UK. I really look forward to seeing how it is done. Thanks very much.
This is great! I'm just discovering the World of moulding planes, I bought a couple at a car boot sale today for £2 each. Thanks for sharing this - will definitely have to try it out 👍
I'll try to get to that soon, meanwhile assuming the profile is correct, try just flattening the back - after all the edge is just where the front and back meet!
This is a wonderful effect , you've given me a great idea for a wall hang , book shelf . Thank you so much for all of these tips and techniques . Blessings to you sir .
I was wondering about the linen fold as well, look forward to the video. I’ve got some clear scrap pine and a skipped hollow and round set, i’m going to give this a try tomorrow!
Is this an optical illusion that I am missing? An "open book" would have a groove down the center where the pages attach and both sides would have a sort of aerofoil shape with the thick part in towards the center.
That really makes me want to get a set of hollows and rounds. I suppose I better get hacksawing and filing on that flatbar of spring steel I bought to make a dowel plate.
That was good, different and a unique addition to my options for decorating pieces. And I look forward to the linen fold treatment you have for next video. Thank you
I just discovered your channel and I am enjoying your video teachings as well as your books. Do you recall what number the of hollow and round you used? Thank you.
The width is oten stamped on the heel of the plane in inches, but I generally choose the nearest to whatever size rebate I need. Didn't bother to look this time.Sorry.
Does what you did with the hollow apply to making astragals? I have trouble making astragals and other similar profiles that are large portions of a circle. I approached the astragal by starting with a square or rectangular bump roughed in with a plow, then taking off the corners with a rabbet, and finally trying to smooth it all out with a hollow. I struggle with flat spots and shape. Seeing what you did here, would it be better to just start with the square bump, lay the hollow on its side, and work up and around like you did? Is that how you would approach an astragal (assuming you don't have an astragal plane)? Thank you for the excellent video.
Hi Graham! Thank you so much for the lesson! Is there a way to invert the parchment fold so the sharp spine in the middle is a fine groove? Is there a nane for a plane that does V-grooves like that, or would you need to use a V-tool/chip carving first, then round over as in this video?
There's no reason why the sharp ridge could not be reversed and the two center 'pages' were rounds instead of hollows. It's just the way it was done originally. And yes, it's perfectly possible to plane an inverted spine -a snipesbill plane would do this.
I love this stuff, I just have no idea where to find these kinds of planes, they are not in my "local flee markets" not sure if anyone is making new molding planes and such. I am also not a fan of eBay as you never know what you're going to get.
They are actually still out there at fleamarkets, junk stores, and even Ebay. Also, check out Rex Krueger's channel episode on where to find old handtools.
Would be great if you could improve video quality to 4k or at least high def. I'm only seeing 240 from my end which is way too blurry to watch. Great content though! Thanks
Just to add my voice to the other replies, you can adjust the resolution by clicking on the gear icon which appears when you hover your cursor over the video. We shoot it at 1080p 60fps.
Please get much closer with the camera. It's very hard to see the curves and lines you are talking about. All your demonstrations are very clear and well done, save the connection between the camera and what is going on.
@@gjbmunc This may be more about lighting than how close the camera is. The excellent lighting that is illuminating you and the bench is washing out the profile that is being worked. It might be a matter of adding some side lighting at the bench to cast some shadows? This is just a guess as I'm not much of a photographer. Thank you for the excellent video! All the key things are here. I believe I can go make one of these.

Merci bien!
Merci bien!
I realy wish I had you as a teacher when I was younger...
Hopefully I can still help!
@@gjbmunc U sure could, and are. Easy to "bite down" clear and simple explanation... love it
What a nice demonstration, and very little noise and dust.
Glad you liked it!

Thank you so much!
Wonderful! I now understand better what I am viewing in my local medieval churches in East Anglia, U.K.
Great!
I intend to add more moulding planes. Thank you Graham as you are so concise and so easy to comprehend your message.
You're very welcome

Thanks. Stay tuned as we will soon be making more interesting things like linenfold etc.
I’m loving this technique! Thanks Graham
Glad you like it!
Good stuff 👏
Glad you enjoyed
Thank you so very much for sharing your magnificent skills. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you so much!
Great technique and really nicely explained. Keep up the videos Graham.
Glad you enjoyed it
Now that's hand woodworking ☺️ as usual appreciated your videos.
Thanks so much!
Hi Graham, thank a lot for teaching us with this technics. This way they will not be lost. Greetings from Brazil
My pleasure!
So beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing the knowledge.
You are so welcome
Thank you for sharing! Rex Krueger sent me over... I love learning traditional skills like this!
Thanks for coming
Thank you Graham!
My pleasure!

Hope to get around to more info on hollows and rounds soon, meanwhile I fully recommend the Mosely planes, congratulations!
Thanks for the videos! hoping to learn much. best regards from Brazil
Thanks for watching! Obrigado!
Your channel is absolutely amazing. These kinds of skills are so rare on UA-cam and I'm so grateful to you for sharing them!
Wow, thank you!
@@gjbmunc no, truly, thank you! Do you have a patreon?

Sounds great, good luck!
So cool. I love how you demystify things like this, making it approachable for peckerwoods like me!
Glad to help. Thanks!
First time seeing this done on youtube, very interesting thank you !

Hi Graham
Great Video! Could you teach us how to sharpen unothodox blades? Especially concave ones. This is something i've not seen so far. Thanks!
I'll try to get to that soon, meanwhile assuming the profile is correct, try just flattening the back - after all the edge is just where the front and back meet!
This is a wonderful effect , you've given me a great idea for a wall hang , book shelf . Thank you so much for all of these tips and techniques . Blessings to you sir .

Thank you
You're welcome
Very nice.
Thanks!
This is lovely! Great to see the process, and know its within my ability to at least try it out.
Go for it!
Looks just like some of the panels in the dining hall in my old college
Not a new technique, and now you know how to do it yourself!
Thanks. Never heard of that before. Very interesting.
Stay tuned, even more interesting stuff to come.
I was wondering about the linen fold as well, look forward to the video. I’ve got some clear scrap pine and a skipped hollow and round set, i’m going to give this a try tomorrow!
Good luck!
Another great video. You simplify the use of hand tools and their use. Your efforts are appreciated.
Thank you so much!
Is this an optical illusion that I am missing? An "open book" would have a groove down the center where the pages attach and both sides would have a sort of aerofoil shape with the thick part in towards the center.
Of course you're right, but think of the book upside down. In any event this was the way the design was originated in the thirteenth century.
Great!
Thanks!
That really makes me want to get a set of hollows and rounds. I suppose I better get hacksawing and filing on that flatbar of spring steel I bought to make a dowel plate.
Indeed!
That was good, different and a unique addition to my options for decorating pieces. And I look forward to the linen fold treatment you have for next video. Thank you
Thanks. Stay tuned for linenfold!
Very cool, I haven't seen this before. I need to make a hollow and round plane and try it.
Go for it; but they're not hard (or expensive) to find.
Good video, thankyou.
You're so welcome!

Hello and thank you, really. May I ask how you found out they were doing it this way pls?
The procedure is quite well known and documented - plus there are some great examples, as in the New York Met Museum for example.
,a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you……
Thanks, will do!
@@gjbmunc Thank you very mutch... have a nice Weekend.... see you….
very cool
Thanks!
I love this stuff, I just have no idea where to find these kinds of planes, they are not in my "local flee markets" not sure if anyone is making new molding planes and such. I am also not a fan of eBay as you never know what you're going to get.
They're there. Keep looking. Good luck. There are also a bunch of websites dedicated to old (and newly manufactured forms of) tools.
Where did you find (or make) the template for this?
The basic shape is fairly standard, just adjust it for the size panel you have.
What day of the month do you reply as you say?
I have yet to receive any of your reply’s.
I try to catch uponce a week.
If only these tools were available anymore 😞
They are actually still out there at fleamarkets, junk stores, and even Ebay. Also, check out Rex Krueger's channel episode on where to find old handtools.
Rex Kruger said to pay you a visit 😎
Welcome!
The piece you showed us at the end looked amazing. What wood is that and did you put a finish on it?
just some old oiled white pine...
Would be great if you could improve video quality to 4k or at least high def. I'm only seeing 240 from my end which is way too blurry to watch. Great content though! Thanks
I think it's just the default premiere video quality.
It is 1080p or Full HD quality. You have to wait a bit for youtube to render and serve higher quality options.
Click on the cog and set it to the resolution you want.
