You're an example for all woodworking teachers. Keep on posting please!
Best woodworking tutorials on UA-cam! Thank you!
This video has inspired me to....watch your sharpening videos. Those end grain parings....
Stopped on your channel to watch the handmade dovetail video, was gonna scrub through it, 40 minutes later I've now moved onto this video. Great stuff. No fluff or filler, edited well!
I never get tired of watching you make dovetails, another great tutorial 👌
This is one of your best shot videos I’ve seen. Your camera views are magnificent! . I can actually seen your marking out lines and your cuts! Thanks.📷📸👍
Your video on mitered dove tail was very comprehensive. I was able to build a Japanese bench. Thank you sincerely. I love your methods
Thank you, Matt.
Experience beyond your years. So great to watch
This video is JUST what I needed for my upcoming litle project :)
"I look forward to hearing from you..." love it
Fantastic site, Matt. I never tire of watching something done properly and so effortlessly.
Thanks for all the movies and a lotttttttttt of info. I have already learned a lot thanks to you, and your my go to guy if I want to know something. Thanks, grts Jeffrey.
One of your best video demonstrations. No one does these joints better.
Thank you, Matt. I really enjoyed watching this video and appreciate your teaching experience. Your attention to detail and explanation on how to make this joint is very effective and enjoyable. Although, when you cut the groove I was hoping you would have shown how to do it using hand tools, like with a plough plane, or hand router plane, or whichever hand tool that allows you to create the groove in the wood.
Fantastic video Matt, love these tutorials, thanks.
Lovely work Matt. Cheers
Great video Matt, nice to see a tutorial back. Well done
That's a gorgeous joint, Matt.
This was a great way to start my Saturday with coffee in hand. Fantastic as always, Matt
The tool pop is back. Excellent! 👍
Ahhh so glad to see another remarkable tutorial video! Wishing you all kinds of success from Atlanta!
Great tips in there, thanks Matt!
Sick Matt! I've been looking for a good video on cutting the mitred dovetail and, well, you've done an excellent job showing me exactly how to do it. Like always, great work and content. Much love, from Canada
Fantastic tutorial young man. Thank you.
Another fabtabulous vid Matt. Cheers homz
Great tutorial Matt.
Perfectly explained and presented, with closeups of key steps and terrific camera work combining to make this an outstanding instructional video. This must have taken some effort to put together - thanks!
Great job Matt....
Great tutorial, great video, enough said 👍👍👍
simply perfect!
Great video work and fantastic joinery!!
I made my wife a box for our wedding anniversary and used this joint after seeing your router bit cabinet video. So, thanks for that. 👌 take as much credit as you wish.
Thx Matt for posting, a very good tutorial and very well presented👌
You are extremely skilled!!
Those curls from the chisel starting at 25:50 are just so satisfying to see.
production value of these videos keep getting better and better! good job you guys!!
Matt, that was a masterclass of video demonstration. Excellent job young man! Liked and Shared on FB.
Matt just wanted to thank you for your top sharpening tips today at Axminster - I came straight home sharpened all my chisels and planes. The result is the sharpest tools I have ever used - game changer. You are certainly an inspiration and an awesome teacher. Thanks once again
Great video! Would love to see you and Paul Sellers do a series of collaboration videos making joints....
Impressive skill and result. A hardwood demo seems to turn out better than a softwood one!
Amazing series of practical woodworking lessons. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
“Fiddley bits”, and “fluffy bits”, great breakfast cereal names !
Great video, good camera work.
You do a very good job at tutorials I've watched I think every one of yours and feel like I am a seasoned pro before I've even touched a tool yet thanks for your time and effort.
Professional presentation.
thanks for your very clear and well explained videos, there are a lot of videos that are good at explaining one element but leave off other essential elements, yours are by far the most integrated.
Nicely done, bro.
You seem like a bright, enthusiastic, and knowledgeable young man. Thanks for the nice video! Good luck to you!
So good!
It’s almost like black magic 😳, nice work babinga boyz!!
Matt, I've watched you through the years and you really are a master craftsman. Beautiful work. BRAVO MAESTRO
im new to real woodworking . i have engineering background and can see similarities but the small shop and lack of tools was putting me off trying , until i came across the shop tour .. i'm liking the content you provide us with .. forever learning from Andy ..
You are awesome thank you very much for your tutorial
Excellent.
Lovely video!
So so neat
EXCELLENT BRAVO !
Excellent video! Verrryyyy good camera at crucial moments! Regards from Vienna🤭👍👍👍👍
Great Matt!!!
Great job, wish. I could do dove tails that good
Great video bud.
Good video Matt
Nice vid, thanks.
great vid thanks !!!
Great video that covers the details that many other teachers miss.
It’s the finer points of measurement and using the ever so sharp chisel & saw that delivers such crisp shoulders and pins
I didn’t think it was possible to hand cut dovetails this good!
Very good
brilliant
those closeup shots are 11/10 wew
nice one
Beautiful joint. And I suppose you could see the gap better in person. But it looked flawless to me.
Always incredible Matt! But your viewers have come to expect such craftsmanship tutorials from you. Hope all is well.
Great video and executed mitered dovetail. Wish you would do a video on compound angle dovetails.
You know nothing Jon Snow! Nah, just kidding! :) Very informative.
I wish so hard you had regular presential courses.... I'd go straight from Brasil to attend!! Have you ever thought about it???
Another great video. That tip of planing towards the gap is a really usefull one.
Could you do a tutorial on 3-way joints? I have a project coming up that will have a few 3-way joints and I'm looking for a good way to do that without using dominos.
Yeah, I'd love to se this too!
How would you put a box together using this method? Would you have to put the 4 walls together simultaneously? Fantastic man
Use a piece of the drawer bottom material in the rebates to line them up when marking the pins.
Thank God someone actually doing joinery. Rather than a butt joint with a domino calling themselves a joiner with no actual traditional joints used. Good job
Great video and explanations - Can I ask why the 45 degree cut on the shooting board isn't accurate enough coming straight from the mitre saw?
👏👏👏
Hey great vid. Big question. How is it that you have a glass shelf/credenza in a woodworking shop? Purple look also reminds me of a grow room. Not that I’ve actually been in a grow room. Cheers
Please do a video about how to cut a wedged mortise and tenon.
Another really valuable video, thanks. One question: Was that really walnut, or was there was a close up of you chiseling some chocolate cake at 26:24 ?
Matt do you like the diamond wheel on the tormek? Thanks👍😊
Matt... In your video what chisels are you using?
What primary bevel are they set to? They look quite steep.
What Micro bevel as well?
@matt What Mitre Square is that you used? Not seen one with an outside-45 angle (they're usually inside-45), looks very convenient for when the reference face is on the 'wrong' side of the mitre...
Hey Matt, it’s been awhile since I’ve watched. Are you still doing you tube videos Thanks great videos.
1:6 ratio! for the love of God and all that is holy! How can you sleep at night? lol Awesome video as always.
Do you use the same tail board to knife make the other side tail board for a box? Or start from step 1 and measure them out for each side?
Once you got the entire process down and were comfortable with it how long does it take you to do what you just showed if you were doing it in real time not video time?
Personally I think the best dovetail ratios are the ones where you position your gauge off the wrong face - my favourite is 6-1 and 8-1
So, what if you did set the pins and tails to be a bit proud? How would that affect the miter?
Best videos hands down..
I looked for a hand cut box joint in your play lists but could not find any. Any recommendation for a good hand cut box joint video out there? Thanks Matt
For a handcut box joint you can follow the same steps in his regular dovetail video but make the pins and tails all square and plumb. Hope that helps!
I’d love to hear if Matt has any tips or tricks, but conceptually box joints and dovetail joints are the same. It’s just that the former doesn’t have an angled cut.
@@Jake_Cotumaccio makes sense I guess. Thanks Jacob
This video was great as always, but for the last hour, I've been pointing at my workbench and saying dewalt thicknesser, drill press, belt sander etc and nothing happens.
Shame there are no shops in the UK that resell the KatsMoses guide
As a suggestion, when showing 'how close you get' before making the final chop on the dovetails, please include a ruler or similar for scale (it's hard to tell how zoomed in you are - for all I could tell, you'd left about 3mm of material...
get you with your bloody masking :D
Were did you get mitre tool from
Is it possible to dovetail to 30° pieces
Is there a way to dovetail an acute angle, say 60 degrees?
