Good idea - it will help take your mind off other worries and end up with a unique piece of furniture.This is the way we did it when I started (50 odd years ago) and the job of hand ripping timber was given to the apprentices resulting in odd sized timber and some nasty injuries. I well remember the arguements when M & T joints were replaced with dowels!! Look forward to seeing the rest of the build, hope it goes well. Chris
Hi Joey. Watching you all the way from eastern Canada. I hope this video series shows people how you can build furniture with minimal tools. Working with hand tools is so satisfying. Looking forward to more. Cheers
You are the only wood-worker I've seen on CZcams who NEVER puts a plane down on its sole - something my grandfather taught me when I was about your boy's age. Look after your tools and they will look after you. Kia kaha, kia ora e hoa
Good Luck with your new endeavor. The interaction with your son makes its all the better. You'll master this like you've mastered your previous work, with style!!
If you can hold it in your hand then it's a handtool !😁 Thanks for the video Joey👌 ,looking forward to part 2. Stay safe and healthy. Greetings from Belgium.
Theo was asking some great questions, neat to see him working with you. Nice to see your portable bench being used for apartment woodworking, which is why you designed it that way. I still haven't seen another bench i like as much as yours.
Ha, Ha, I had a premonition when I saw the board on the floor that a sneaky power tool was about to appear, You haven't got a Sawyers bench so how else were you going to do it 😎. but at least you did not hide it. Wow is that kid growing. I remember seeing him in the early days when he was a babe in mums arms.
This is great! It occurs to me that you could temporarily mount narrow guide blocks to the bench inside the vise for repeatability. Can't wait for more!
For a table leg you only need for two sides to be squire. That is the side that the rails will go into which will be on two sides. The outside display could be any shape or standard of finish you want. So you only really need to check for square on one corner.
Man, that hand saw cut through that slab like a battery operated Makita circular saw! 🤔😂🤣🤣🤣 Nice work, mate. 👍🏽 Can't wait for the second installment. 👌🏽
I was watching the intro thinking “Oh I think I saw someone make a workbench that went together really similar to that...” before realising that I’d of course seen you making that workbench 😂 hope you’re keeping safe in lockdown!
I'm going to go back and watch your video where you built this portable bench. I never got 'round to building one but now I have some time to convert to the dimensions available here which are a combination of both imperial and metric.
Actually, you may drive to the shop safetly, but turn the air circulation system in your car only for closed circuit cockpit tipe ventilation, not forom outside ... When you get outside outside use closed respirator ( without any hole ) it is not convenient for longer time usage but you will be safe...
when you said you had some walnut on insta I didn't expect you to be able to make a whole table I'd love more info on that table however that looks like a good transportable work bench
If your planning timber wide than your plane, you dont want the corners of the blade making gouges in the surface, so gently easing the corners of the blade largely stops this.
Inspired by you, Joey with all that happened to your business maybe you’re proving that ww’ing can be therapeutic! The storm will pass. You’re gonna be OK.
Indeed. Don't forget we are all on the same boat right now, including your customers, and that people's needs won't just vanish due to the lockdown. We'll be back to normal and your awesome skills will be required again! All the best Joey!

as a woodworker theirs nothing better than hearing a sharp plane at its finest
Hi Joey. Watching you all the way from eastern Canada. I hope this video series shows people how you can build furniture with minimal tools. Working with hand tools is so satisfying. Looking forward to more. Cheers
LMAO!!! New definition...If you can hold it in your hands, it's a hand tool. Love it!!!!
You are the only wood-worker I've seen on CZcams who NEVER puts a plane down on its sole - something my grandfather taught me when I was about your boy's age. Look after your tools and they will look after you. Kia kaha, kia ora e hoa
Perhaps you could make a small shooting board for making those 45 and 90 degree ends?
Awesome idea to keep yourself busy and to give us something to watch to get through the lock in

Haha I was looking forward to some ripping with a handsaw.
Wont lie I was too 🤣 practicality won that one haha
Pewww peww with a hand plane 😂😂😂, kids are the best
This is a rad idea, keen to see this come together!
This is great! It occurs to me that you could temporarily mount narrow guide blocks to the bench inside the vise for repeatability. Can't wait for more!
Ah cool idea!
For a table leg you only need for two sides to be squire. That is the side that the rails will go into which will be on two sides.
The outside display could be any shape or standard of finish you want. So you only really need to check for square on one corner.
That's what I did
"For the duration of this build, this will be classed as a hand tool" 🤨
pro tip : you can watch movies on instaflixxer. I've been using them for watching loads of movies these days.
@Wesson Martin Definitely, I have been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :)
So good to see how different craftsmen are dealing with these testing times. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. Keep up the good work Joey.
Somebody's going to sleep well tonight with all that exercise! Looking forward to watching the series. Cheers, David
Ha yea , sore shoulders already...
Man, that hand saw cut through that slab like a battery operated Makita circular saw! 🤔😂🤣🤣🤣
Nice work, mate. 👍🏽
Can't wait for the second installment. 👌🏽
Love the giant pile of wood shavings on the floor 😎😎😎😎
Adapt and improvise that is key!!!! Good on ya Joey 👍
Hi Joey, mate why not do a video on sharpening the back saw as its always interesting to see another tradies method to sharpen tools .
I was watching the intro thinking “Oh I think I saw someone make a workbench that went together really similar to that...” before realising that I’d of course seen you making that workbench 😂 hope you’re keeping safe in lockdown!
I have to admit, I thourougly enoyed this video !!!
Looking forward to what's coming next !
Cheers
great stuff........like the humour too.........
If the tool is in your hand, it's a hand tool! Digging this build!
Great video
I'm going to go back and watch your video where you built this portable bench.
I never got 'round to building one but now I have some time to convert to the dimensions available here which are a combination of both imperial and metric.
Good luck, Joey! Stay safe ...
Excellent. This will be great to follow.👍
Cheers
Great idea only hand tools
Great way to adapt to the situation. Looking forward to the next video.
Nice view! I think I can see my place. I'm curious to see how the lockdown project works out.
Hola ! me encantan tus proyectos y soy un buen seguidor tuyo, veo que ya no estan en español.. volveras a hacerlos ' muchas gracias y saludos
Love this channel. Enjoying the videos
while on lockdown myself here in the states. Thanks for proving us with great content!
Looks like the landscape around Helensville.
Joey, thanks for uploading still despite the circumstances. I’m pulling for you man; you put some of the best stuff out there!
Cheers
people always bang on in CZcams comments about "easy to make stuff with the $$$$$$ worth of fancy wood working tools". Joey.....hold my beer
Hi, tell us more about the square you using. Where did you get it? Can’t wait to see the rest.
Actually, you may drive to the shop safetly, but turn the air circulation system in your car only for closed circuit cockpit tipe ventilation, not forom outside ...
When you get outside outside use closed respirator ( without any hole ) it is not convenient for longer time usage but you will be safe...
Actually no I'm not permitted to leave the house for non essential trips. Going to my workshop included.
Thanks for all your content during this time. It's very much appreciated. Best to you and your family. stay safe.
The boy is growing, great video. Cheers.
My hand tools would also include a jointer, bandsaw and hammer table saw
when you said you had some walnut on insta I didn't expect you to be able to make a whole table
I'd love more info on that table however that looks like a good transportable work bench
Hand tools are cool. Are you going to be breaking out your moulding planes, or do you have a sneaky router hiding away somewhere?
I hope so, I have them all, just not sure if I can incorporate them into this build.
You can't use that saying Kuffy, it belongs to Neil. Where are you hiding? haven't seen anything from you in awhile, or too busy with paying work.
Glad to see you'r still making videos, hope your able to weather the storm.
Most of the hand tools I commonly use are battery powered too.
Old school, luv it
Superb
Solid wood and hand tools, What more do you want? :-)
I dont quite understand advantage of rounded corners. Is it just to not grab.
If your planning timber wide than your plane, you dont want the corners of the blade making gouges in the surface, so gently easing the corners of the blade largely stops this.
not often, First UK!!
Hey you've got the same t-shirt as me! 😉
More drums in video!!!)))
:)

I think its a nice break. Time with family.
We all serve the mighty dollar to much.
Bet you wish you brought your bad saw
