Just the sound of wood being worked and hard skilful graft being done :) A joy to watch and so good to see a such a young and skilful guy keeping the craft of cabinet making alive.

      Wood can exhibit weakness or reduced strength due to various factors. Some common reasons for wood to become weak include:
      Moisture: Wood is highly susceptible to moisture absorption, which can lead to swelling, warping, and decay. When wood absorbs water, it can lose its structural integrity and become weak.
      Decay: Wood is prone to decay when exposed to fungi, bacteria, or insects that break down its cellular structure. Decay can significantly weaken the wood, making it more brittle and less able to bear loads.
      Insect infestation: Wood-boring insects such as termites, beetles, and carpenter ants can tunnel through the wood, compromising its strength and structural integrity.
      Aging: Over time, wood can naturally degrade due to exposure to environmental factors like sunlight, temperature changes, and oxygen. This aging process can cause wood to become weaker and more prone to damage.
      Knots: Knots are areas where branches grew out of the trunk, creating a localized disruption in the wood grain. Knots can weaken the wood since they often have different density and strength characteristics than the surrounding wood.
      Defects and damage: Wood can develop defects or sustain damage from impacts, stresses, or improper handling. These defects, such as cracks, splits, or checks, can weaken the wood and compromise its load-bearing capacity.
      Poor quality or low-density wood: The quality of wood can vary based on factors like the tree species, growth conditions, and harvesting methods. Low-density wood or wood with inherent structural flaws can be weaker than high-quality, dense wood.
      Improper drying: If wood is not properly dried before use, it may retain moisture, leading to dimensional instability and reduced strength. The internal stresses caused by uneven drying can result in warping, twisting, or cracking, making the wood weaker.
      It's worth noting that the strength of wood can also depend on its specific species, density, and the direction in which forces are applied. Different types of wood have varying inherent strengths and properties.

      It''s called "clocking" or "timing" your screws. It was one of those things done in older times that was considered a mark of a true good craftsman! Seeing clocked screws on something in an antique shop always makes me happy!
      You can see them on old handsaws too, bonus points is the saw screws are split, chances are you're on to a good tool then.

Also the hours and attention to detail I don't fully appreciate not having really any wood working experience myself should be acknowledged and appreciated (I recently had to fit my own skirting boards so have been researching wood working on UA-cam in its many various forms which led me here eventually).
