  • This recent timber frame pavilion uses large curved timbers in concert with another straight timber to create a parallel chord truss, one way of spanning larger distances with smaller timbers.

    All about this channel teaches you to exercise patience. The planning, preparing the wood and working on it, the upload schedule.
    Definitely one of my favourites.
    Thanks for so much, Mr. C.

    If I have kids and grandkids, I will burden them with checking to see how long mr chickadees buildings stand. I’d bet about 300 years.

      Largely dependent on how well the roofs get maintained after he's gone.

      How long do you expect your kids and grandkids to live? You'd need at least 4 generations to reach 300 years

      @AvanaVana 2 роки тому +6

      The Hōryū-ji temple in Japan is over 700 years old…given that Mr. Chickadee employs Japanese construction techniques, perhaps his structures can last even longer than 300 years.

    Japanese Carpentry is some of the finest skills someone could have when it come's to Wood Working. It seems as if you have Nailed it Mate. You've shown all, just how Beautifully this stile of Wood Working should be executed. This example of Wood Working is way above your normal everyday Carpenter skills, that I would consider it being Art. Thanks for sharing your hard earned knowledge with me. I do appreciate this, very much.

  • @ronniestanley75

    Impressive. I look at this stuff and think about the amount of time it takes me, as a hobbyist woodworker, to build a shelf or a cabinet. Then, I think about the time it would take me to do those things using only hand tools. And, it makes his work all the more impressive to me.
    I have a lot of respect for Roy Underhill and I consider Mr Chickadee the next generation Wood Wright.

    Words can attempt to give praise for your skills and improvements but what I truly admire is your patience and perseverance to get the job done. Your willingness to reduce the set on the saw to achieve the clean cut in an extremely tough piece of wood is remarkable. I could not imagine you using a dull saw but as I listened I could tell that the set was not huge. Your endurance is astounding. Most of all, I can not believe you're able to find somewhere where there aren't hundreds of people standing around watching you work. If I had a complaint it would be too few videos but I would not want you to stop expressing your skills with wood and tool.Thank you.

    • @MrChickadee
      @MrChickadee  2 роки тому +5

      Thank you for the kind words Clyde. Your ear is right sir! This particular tree shot up 150 years ago when our land was cleared for pasture, it grew fast till the hardwoods replaced the pasture then it slowed wayyyy down. Its last several inches of wood had 50+ rings to the inch, and in "yellow" type pine, that equals almost solid latewood, which is insanely hard. Id wager this pine is denser and stronger than most hardwoods in our forests. It really felt like going through metal with a hacksaw at times. It was also dried 3 years. The saws, both rip and corsscut, though very sharp have just the slightest touch of set. BUt they do give a very nice straight flat face that needed no clean up.

    I dont see what the big deal is? Everybody hand chisels, hand drills, hand cuts their own timber beams with the pains-taking effort and precision as Mr Chickadee. Shoot, there's nothing to see here, there's no syncopated music, no catchy title, no sponsors hocking expensive tools, no swag to buy, no expensive shop to walk-through. Mr Chickadee has nothing...except 375,000 subscribers that are interested in a man who does what only 1 in 65,000 men would do. Love Mr Chickadee's work and his videos. I'm in.
