    I am a follower of the great Norm Abrams, but it is always hard to reproduce his work without his workshop and tools. You make it work with the basics. Bravo!

    Really nice...I am going to make something similar for my counters and cabinets that I'm also making. It's awesome to see end results when you create with your own hands

    You cant believe how nice it is to see a real production shop/carpenter do real world work with actual industry techniques. No over use of a felled tree in their back yard and a home made bandsaw and jointer. None of this made-for-youtube carpenters and carpentry. This is how we have been building houses for generations. Keep up the great work and great videos, they are appreciated, even if the algorithm doesnt promote them and you dont get the subscribers like some of the other channels. I notice you are using a left tilt saw, how would you make those mitered rips on a right tilt saw?

      Hi... thanks for the nice compliment and following our channel. Here is the trick to a right tilt saw: move your fence over to the other side of your blade. Word of caution...this will create an awkward situation that might feel uncomfortable. Just be sure to be as safe as possible and pay close attention to where you place your hand and feet for stability. Good luck...Wes

    Looking really good! Fantastic video showing all the process and detail. I enjoy your videos a lot, thanks Wes!
    Furthermore, I really liked when you took your time to explain why you didn´t use a stick to cut those small pieces in the saw. First thing I thought when I saw you put your fingers in there. Safety first 👍👍👍

    Great as usual, Wes, and thanks again for taking the time to make these videos. Question: is there any magic to getting super precise miters like you’re able to achieve? Are you set at 45 degrees? I ask because I feel like I’ve tried everything to tune, adjust, whatever… and I don’t get tight miters. Thanks!

    • @WoodworkingWithWes
      @WoodworkingWithWes  Рік тому

      Hi...I always insure that I have perfect miters by putting 2 of them together and checking them with a square on the inside. Hope this helps...thanks for your comment and support. Wes

      Hi...I use a 40 tooth rip blade while making this cove. It works very well. Thanks, Wes

    Wes I'm a subscriber. great video man!...really nice techniques all around but especially making that scoop on the table saw impressed me. Regarding working safely on the table saw - I tend to wrap my pinky finger on my right hand over my fence...almost like a "lock" to prevent my other fingers going toward the saw blade (on my smaller/ benchtop saw). I'm only mentioning this as it might be helpful to others . One other thing, there's another pretty amazing UA-cam finish carpenter (whose name I won't mention here) who advises setting the bevel at 45.5 degrees for making the bevel posts, claims it pulls the miter in tighter. any thoughts on this? Thanks for the excellent content

    • @WoodworkingWithWes
      @WoodworkingWithWes  Рік тому +1

      Hi Joseph...setting the saw at a 45+ is a way to create tighter corners. However, it does have one drawback; if not clamped with equal pressure on all sides, you can cause your post to be out of square which could create even more problems as you continue with the build up. Thanks for your comment and being part of our community. I appreciate the support. Wes
