That is really beautiful. Simple and elegant, but you showed so many skills to make it. Your video production is great, too. Glad I stumbled on your channel, Kevin!
Really wonderful bench, Kevin! I appreciate the understated design that lets the beauty of the walnut take center stage. Clearly I'm a few weeks behind on my subscription video backlog...
Nice build. I love the way you created that bevel, especially the swooping one at the end. That's a detail only hand tools could achieve. Beautiful slab too, can't wait to see what you do with the other two!
Great video. Need to flip that cleat around when you’re milling. The planer is pushing the material, not the sled. The cleat is doing nothing following behind.
Yep, you’re right. Appreciate the correction. Thankfully, wasn’t an issue as the piece was screwed to the sled but I’ll remember for next time. I was so fixated on the direction of the cutters but the rollers would have things under control, just as they do when you run a piece without a sled. Thanks for watching and the feedback. Definitely an “a ha!” moment for me!
Much appreciated. I use Top Oil in satin for most projects. If I want it to be glossier I’ll just sand to a higher grit (600 and higher) and it will give me a beautiful, shinier finish. I use Polyx Raw on maple and ash when I don’t want the light wood to get too yellow. Hope this helps!
@@quillwoodworks Well, your finish came out amazing. Is the top oil considered a hard wax oil as well? I’d love to try out Osmo. Totally a viable way to finish inside your shop without having to spray chemicals like lacquer although I do like how lacquer looks. This seems like a much healthier option.
You are producing some of the best content on this platform right now. Please keep it up.
Everything is pretty near perfection.
That means so much. You just put a big smile on my face!
That is a beautiful bench. My heart would be pounding trying to plane that mitre!
Thanks so much. This bench turned out to be one of my favorites!

Thanks Stephen. I really appreciate the kind words and you taking the time to tune in!
@@quillwoodworks Love the channel, and my wife thinks you look like Pep Guardiola, the coach of Manchester City!
I had to look him up as I’m not a soccer/football guy. Thank goodness he’s a nice-looking chap. 😁

I appreciate you watching, Joseph, and the kind words!
At first I wasn't sure about that compound bevel edge...but seeing it done...it is a lovely detail...very beautiful bench!
I wasn’t sure about it either! Thankfully, when it was done I was happy with it. I appreciate you watching!

I appreciate the kind words. The air-dried walnut really planed nicely.
Love the live edge detail 🥰
Another home run! Beautiful build

You can cleat both ends, the blade is trying to push the material backwards.
Absolutely stunning. What Osmo product(s) was that? I saw top oil in one clip but did you use their Polyx as well? What sheen? Satin?
