How to make a STOOL

- From a few off-cuts off timber in my workshop, I have put a video together documenting the process I used to produce this small piece of furniture.
My first CZcams video! A video produced having made some time and just because I fancied making one. A tick off of my own to do list!
I hope the video content encourages or somehow inspires even just a few individuals turning a few off-cuts of timber into a product of purpose that will furnish their home for years to come.

I never would have guessed this is your first video, well done!
Thanks ever so much 👍
A perfectly proportioned stool and a brilliant video 👍
Thanks ever so much for your comment. I should have my next CZcams video out in the next 1-2 weeks. 👍
Best stool build I've seen.
Very kind of you sir 👍🏼
Rounding planes, either commercial or home made, are what you need.
Yes, like the curved sole finger planes and travishers
Simple and elegant design. I love it.

Thanks 👍🏼
Not only do I think you have tremendous ability, I also think your aesthetic taste is fantastic.
Thank you for your kind words 👍🏼
Perfect!
Thanks 👍🏼
Good work ! Greetings from a German master carpenter. I am excited for more videos.
Hi Martin, thank you sir 👍🏼
@@leftwichprojects you have my subscription for sure. Lets have a good time in our woodshop!
@@martinkramer9574 very kind of you, yes I love being in my workshop 👍🏼
Jumping into the van, driving over there with the four legs. I think you forgot something. Stopping to buy your dad a couple of beers.
Ha ha, yes! That would have warranted a couple of beers 🍻👍🏼
Nice to see another British wooworker.
Thanks Cindy 👍🏼
This was really helpful. I set aside a piece 6/4 of hard maple months ago (and I have several cutoffs of black walnut) with the thought of making a music stool for playing guitar. Your stool is the perfect design - with legs a bit longer. Your video was a great find. Thanks.
Thanks for your comment, glad to hear the video was helpful. All the best with your stool build 👍🏼
Excellent
Thanks 👍🏼
Very nice indeed.
Thank you 👍🏼
THAT'S why we watch CZcams woodworking videos Jason, to watch a fellow woodworker take us on an honest and humble journey of crafting, sharing his knowledge, without all the fancy pants stuff that plagues YT these days.
Thank you mate, what a lovely build too! I learned a couple more tricks too, like the blue tape trick marking out those butterflies.
Hi Rob. Thank you for your comment, glad you liked it 👍🏼
A great first video buddy now I know what to do with my oak plank off cuts 😊
Thanks for your comment Peter. My three other videos since were not so successful 😆but I'm trying to improve as I go along. Thanks for watching 👍
@@leftwichprojects by the way I love the leg levelling jig so simple but really effective 😎👍
@@PeterMcAlister-kt3df yes it’s a very handy little jig 👍🏼
It is well done.!!!!!!
Thank you
Incredible video 👏👏
Thanks
Love the design of the stool and your craftsmanship. Hard to believe that was your first video on this platform, great job!
Thanks Bob for your kind comment 👍🏼
nice work! I like the way you solved the leg-leveling problem and the way you used the 25 mm bit to mark the end of the leg and make a testing jig.
Thanks for your comment and thanks for watching 👍🏼 I’m hoping to put my next video out soon.
Very nice mate. Thumbs up for the jig too. Why didn't I think of that!??
@@chrismoose64 thank you 👍🏼 it’s a handy jig that
What I like most about your project is the hybrid method of power tools and hand tools. Seems very pragmatic, using which ever one is best suited for the particular task.
Thank you for your comment. Yes, power tools can be great for speeding up the work process when possible. I always use my hand tools for best and finish work. Thanks for watching 👍
Hola...saludos desde Monterrey, México...te quedó hermoso ese banquito!!!!...Nada tan hermoso como la mano del maestro transformando unas piezas de madera en algo tan hermoso!!!!...todo mi respeto
Thanks you very much for your kind words
My first videos are garbage. You keep the work in shot and really clear up the details. A true how to. Great job. I’m going to have to step up my game.
Thanks For the comment Nick 👍🏼
Very nice project. Now I want to make me a stool to 😆
I like your editing as well. Clear explanations and details, no annoying music. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much. Stools are a fun little build, go get making 👍🏼
What drill guide is that? Looks a lot snazzier than the one I have.
It’s made by UJK
Incredibly great implementation of this project. Very excellent craftsmanship.
Thank you 👍🏼
Your third video?!?! You just TRYING to make me feel bad? Dude, it was fantastic. Stools are one of my favorite projects of all time. Quick and so satisfying. Keep up the great content! Cheers!
Thanks, glad you liked it 👍🏼
Brilliant detailed video jase , really shows all the work craftman have to do , amd why its fair to charge a strong price , lovely finish also,top man top marks 🙏👍
Thanks bud 🙌🏼
Really lovely piece of work. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you 👍🏼
V V Nicely made, liked the proportions. Thx for sharing.
Thanks 👍🏼
Nice stool, I’d happily have that in my house 👍
Thanks 👍🏼
Good build. Stools like that are classic it looks simple but the splayed legs can get tricky. No wobble either!
Thanks. Splayed legs can be tricky but with some time and patience they will turn out fine. 👍🏼
That is so cute! I dig it, kinda rustic and clean line. B E A U T I F U L!!!❤
Thanks
Superb , some great ideas shared - your technique for cutting tenons and the jig for leveling legs. For a beginning woodworker these are very useful. Thank you all the way from Chiang Mai , Thailand.
Thanks Gary, I’m pleased you found it helpful 👍🏼
Beautiful piece and great video! Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks Benjamin 👍🏼
EXCELLENT!
Thanks
Very good project, thanks! Waiting for the new videos :)
Thanks, just getting started on the next one 👍🏼
NIce lines. Great job. Congratulations from Brazil.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your kind words
Excellent build and reveals your knowledge
Thanks for your message Bob 👍🏼
Nice project. I would be interested in the overall sizes of the stool. Liked the jig to get the 12'' length of legs accurate. Is this why you called it a footstool! !Cheers. Jim
Hi Jim, thanks for your comment. The stool seat measures 465mm x 270mm and stands 300mm high. Yes the jig is very handy. My stool is a 'fireside' stool, saves my knees in the winter when putting logs in the burner 👍
@@leftwichprojects Thanks for the information. Keep up the good work. Cheers Jim
@@jimbartley9125 Thanks Jim, I'm already planning my next video 👍
Excelente trabajo, con la carpinteria basica podemos aprender trucos que nos resolveran grandes retos, enhorabuena
Thank you 👍🏼
Great build --great video --Thanks, hope for more. JMHO if you slightly chamfer the bottom of the legs it will help with splintering, just a thought. Once again GREAT BUILD.
Thanks and yes I have a number of videos in the pipe line 👍🏼
Nice narration on how you do the various details. I wonder, what size is the hole drilled for the tenons?
From memory 25mm I think
Great video. You've done a great job of narrating the process you used to create a beautiful stool. Please stick with the youtube channel. I am sure it will take quite a while to gain traction, but you certainly have what it takes to get there.
Thank you for your kind and encouraging comment 👍🏼
You could have said this is your hundredth video and I would have believed you!
@@mikesirois3362 thanks Mike. It takes many hours putting these videos together so appreciate the comment 👍🏼
Based on the editing and quality of your video, I would have never guessed that you are new to CZcams! Kudos my dude, kudos!
Also, I love the design you made and you have inspired me to do some of my own.
Thanks so much Hayley for your kind words. Glad you found some inspiration in this project as I find inspiration when I see other wood workers work 👍🏼
I was wondering if someone made a video that shows how to contour for the buttocks. Hate sitting on flat wood.
I liked your methods. Curious about the bow ties, are they angled, or straight walled.
Straight walled, but a little chamfer on the edge with the chisel helps to ease them in 👍🏼
