In the next episode - a mortise using a circular saw :)

Wow I don’t know how you can get it all so perfectly fitting! Super job!

How fast is the tenon without speeding it up 🤣

Why not using a bandsaw?

now I know, and that is nothing but amazing.. thank you

Thank you sir, it is truly a treasure to find people on youtube that take the time and effort, to share their skills, wisdom and knowledge so kind and generous. Thank you very much, an inspiration. Sincerely yours, Ernst, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Sometimes, with a bit of luck, you find makita chainmortiser 2nd hand for a less painful budget, but never bone cheap.

What forster bit/auger and extension you recommend? Should it be 1 3/4 or a little larger? What brand and model? Thanks.

Thank you for showing this easy to use sharpening system for timber framing chisels. Could you share what other 2 grits of sandpaper you use in addition to the 400 grit?

Those are decorative! Not the real deal! Bottom beem would never hold up under load!

You said hand cut! Why is there skill saw at the beginning of the video?!

Good morning, How do I get in touch with your company?

Thank you for such a down to earth and simple instructions for a guy like me. I picked up some me great advice that I didn’t learn from others. The one that comes immediately to kind is that you do not put the flat side of the chisel down on the leather. Thanks a ton! I’ve now subscribed to your channel too! Looking forward to more videos!

Why don’t you just shim up one side of the planner so you only plane one side to get it flat.

hello there, you still know how long these trusses were? how long was the span? you know what trusses are used for large spans?

Idk about 7k. Few web sites have them for 4.2-4.5 new😊

Really enjoyed this.:thanks.

What a lovely piece of timber.

Beginner here, gonna take on a simple post & beam garden pavilion and don’t want to buy thousands in tools. Best video I found yet to cut mortise & tenon. Thank you!

Sweet set-up - very ingenious!

11:25🎉 много времени ушло на поиск этого кадра. Самое понятное объяснение.

Why can’t you just use your planer shim from the last video, but start from the middle?

Браво момчета много добра майсторска работа поздрави от България желая ви здраве научих много благодаря

Why not do a voice over and mute the saw noise? If instruction is the goal, then demonstrate what constitutes acceptable techniques. What are some pitfalls to avoid? State the process then perform the process. Just playing obnoxious soundtrack while operating a tool, conveys very little.

Zzzzzzzz. Total over explanation.

Are there jigs for cutting large dovetails in beams?

I might have to pick me up a used Japanese model, they're about 10% of the price. Makita, Hitachi, and Ryobi have decent ones.

Gawd that's satisfying.

What is the benefit of this type of joint opposed to just nails?

What size is that King post (original size)?

What type of router bit do you use for making the deep pockets?

Have you ever had a beam that kept its twist or bow or hook after you took off material?

Oh my goodness...this is beautiful. Do you sell kits or plans for different sizes? We moved into a new house and there is an old gazebo in the back yard that needs to be replaced. Our slab is 11' in diameter.

$90!? 😂

Gorgeous truss

Great idea

You had your leg lifted on the portable chain morticer as we say back here in the U. $7000! they must have seen you coming.

Huuuge saw horses

You were a pleasure to watch a true professional with great timber skills. I hope the youngsters are following your footsteps in this skilful trade.

I made a planer for making square beams up to 12.5” which runs on a rail. Much faster and accurate than this, sub mm accurate

Working on a frame now - i notice your timber slips a little on the trestles, recommend sticking a bit of cork or rubber on top the trestle, makes it easier to flip too and doesn’t marr the corners

Hey there, good point. In this particular situation the ties were arched. Breaking the ties in two kept the structural integrity while maintaining a healthy arch.

hello there, love your work. But why use that truss spline instead of long horizontal beam and work with a through tenon on the king post? Is it stronger like that? thanks

Truly Fine Work Guys !

good info.thanks.

He's done this a time or two.

I really appreciate the time you take to instruct. I am a retired building contractor but new to timber framing. I'm stoked to learn. What brand of chisel do you prefer and do you have a prefer species of handle? I have been following some traditional Japanese framing and they seem to emphasize a semi-soft wood to handle to minimize wrist shock. Guys my age gotta think about that. Lol. Anyway, love your work and appreciate any advice. BTW. I'm in northern california.

Impressive. Cost?
