    Renovation videos are always so satisfying to watch, especially when the "before" looks so tragically stuffed up you're tempted to think the only solution is to demolish the house and rebuild, then _voilà_ there's the "after" and it's a bloody elegant work of pure craftsmanship. Well done.

    My First terrace house in Scarborough ( North Yorks) had a similar staircase. Not easy to climb when you had, had a few Pints. BTW, your a bit sloppy with your measurements. can I suggest you change to the bees wing thickness units. much more accurate. 😎 Have a GREAT Christmas and New Year.

    • @alext8828

  • @theofarmmanager267
    @theofarmmanager267 Před 2 lety

    Brilliant. Very instructive. Can I ask where you got the plans for your push stick from? I haven’t seen that design before. Also, your squint at 1mm accuracy - is that +/-1mm or +/-0.5mm? It’s important to know that.
    I don’t like PU glues - mainly for the mess involved. Genuine question - why do you use them? I can learn when I should be using a PU and not something like Titebond III.
    Your spindle guard is ingenious. I guess shop made? I don’t have a sprindle moulder, just a quality router table that your guard is worth marketing.
    I’m using a lot of MRMDF at the moment. I only buy Medite or Fensa as the quality of everything else I’ve used goes from inconsistent to consistently crap. Dreadful to cut on the table saw all day with the shop ending up covered in green dust; I’ve got a Trend crash helmet air filter thing amd the filters on that tell you what otherwise you would be breathing in.

Didn’t know if you caulk it or wether you just haven’t had any issue? Also have you easy filled straight onto plasterboard before? Don’t feel confident with multifinish but can sand the easyfil.

    I'm finding fault with your first sentence, that the tenons are better than metal straps. Metal straps put the entire joist into vertical compression. Tenons are subject to splitting the joists anywhere above their bottom edge.
    Beautiful job. How are you having success with that Gorilla Glue? I thought it was the worst stuff. I like their high viscosity CA glue but hate their polyurethane glue (is it poly or some other mix?). The cherry looks good even without a finish.
