      Yes, my drawings are very detailed, and they’ve been intentionally made so that people at all skill levels can build from them. For experienced woodworkers, it might be too much information, but for others, it might be too little. Personally, I’d be fine with just mentioning the different angles-15, 30, and 45 degrees. However, the drawings have now been made in professional design software, and below, I’ll explain why the drawings are dimensioned the way they are.
      When you create a drawing in software like SolidWorks or Fusion 360, angles are measured differently compared to how they’re measured on a workshop tool, like a drop saw or circular saw.
      In the software: When you make a 30-degree cut, the program measures the angle from a reference baseline (typically horizontal). The angle is measured upwards from that baseline. So, in the drawing, what you see as a 30-degree angle might actually be a 60-degree measurement on paper. This is because the software does not measure angles the same way a saw does, which causes the confusion.
      In the workshop (with tools like a drop saw or circular saw): These saws are set to 90 degrees by default (straight vertical). If you tilt the blade, you are not reducing from 90 down to 0 degrees; instead, you're increasing from 0 up to 90 degrees. For example, when you set the saw to cut at a 30-degree angle, the software drawing would show a 60-degree measurement, because the software measures from the base or reference line upwards.

    Great video. Thanks for sharing. The template does the trick, I guess. Last year I tried to make a Christmas tree similar to your previous model. I don't remember anymore from which YT channel I got the idea. But somehow it didn't work for me. I couldn't get it totally assembled. It's somewhere in a box. In one month I'll get back to it.
    For what reason do you use 19x62 mm pieces? Is that standard material in Denmark?

    • @ErikHovedskou77
      @ErikHovedskou77  Місяць тому

      Thank you for the kind words ;) sorry to hear that you did not have the best of luck with the last Christmas tree.
      Well the 19mm thickness is a standard Measurement here in Denmark, and I should have said 64mm as that is 2,5" so did make a small mistake

      No I have not made any plans about the jig.
      If you are only making a few I think you can do without the jig, but if you are making a lot a jig would be most helpful.

    Hej Erik.
    Jeg er blevet bidt af alt med træ, og laver lige nu en masse projekter indenfor. Men jeg kunne godt tænke mig at prøve at lave noget lidt mindre (første projekt i træ var en “jydebue” i vores entre) men jeg er ordblind, og er ikke så god til det skrevne engelsk, har du måske nogle danske beskrivelser som jeg kan købe? 🤞🏼
