Short Stool Build
Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 09. 2024
- For my first ever woodworking video I've decided to build a short, squatty strong stool out of pine. I start with a rough cut 2"x7" board and chop wood away until stool parts come out. Then I put them all together with glue.
It has compound angled legs, tenons into the seat top, and half lap joints on the legs.
Since I've been getting questions about what I did with the mistake, I thought I'd put a little blurb in the comments here. I definitely should've mentioned something in the video, but I didn't. I just left the mistake there. I don't think it compromises the strength or integrity of the stool. Also it's shop furniture and isn't meant to be terribly beautiful or perfect. That's the fun part about shop projects!
Equipment used to make this video:
Canon HF-G30 video camera
PowerDirector 15 Ulitmate software
What’s nice is to come across this a few years later, enjoy your style, your build, your dog dance and your outcome. Yes, like the guy who asked you for the measurements…..I would like you to make it easy for me too so I don’t have to think…..but where is the fun and challenge in that-haha. I hope that after five years, the stool and dog are still with ‘us’.
A precision to the quality of workmanship. Kudos.
6:09 Damn, that chisel is sharp!
Thank you for NOT adding music.
Definitely! Keep away from the children!
Beautiful!
That sounds of chisel made is satisfying....😀
Liked seeing how you did all the angles on the legs... Interesting 👍
*Nice stool you have! And the tools are worthy of respect. I, too, sometimes make woodwork and stools in particular ;-)*
Great detail, thanks for also showing mistake. Makes me feel better about when I run into mistakes too. Overall great work
It looks great and sturdy. Definitely reliable furniture:-)
I like it!
Well done!
Bravo Sir another Heirloom ! NICE!
Hi Ethan
Wow.
So, I appreciated your calm approach, you owning your limitations and moving forward anyway, the quality of the final project, and your leaving the slight imperfections there for all the world to see - the world being your kin. What you leave says as much about who you are as what you change. I really like what you did. Whoever uses it will also, for the next 100 years or so anyway. And - THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR NOT USING SOME FUNKY TECKNO MUZAK TRACK in your video!!!!!! I cannot count the number of videos that I close as soon as the muzak track comes on. As an old timey blacksmith told my mother as he sipped her best effort coffee - Dorthy, when I want coffee I want coffee and when I want water, I want it clean. Thanks for the coffee....thanks for the clean water...
Neil Hendricks wow thanks so much for the kind words! I hope to make a few more videos in 2018, and I'll be keeping the same style :) keep an eye out!
Good video. Very instructable, also stool looks great!
Really like this stool.....
Thanks Ron!
You make the hand sawing look so easy!
Wow, I must've edited out all the issues I was having :) thanks for the comment Kathryn!
Nice sir ji
Nice project Ethan and a good video. Shame the joints didn't all work out for you. I like how you don't use screws etc, it's how I like to work too. Also like how you don't use a fancy machine for every single step like so many 'woodworkers' on youtube seem to do, nice to see some hand tools for a change
The jig u use to push the wood through the table saw should be patented ... the safety level to protect fingers is innovative
so cute bravo
Nice job
I literally laughed out loud at you dancing with your dog. Nice stool. Well shot vid. Subbed
Haha, idk what got in to me, but I must've been feeling it.
Good job Ethan! This makes me wanna woodwork, I made a cutting board this fall and that was easy and fun. :)
Jennifer Lee thanks! you should keep it up! any projects in mind?
I'm jealous, I want to be able to do that type of woodworking! Oh well, you did exceptional work, great finish color too
Thanks Lynard!
Supper!!!
very nice
🇧🇷🌱🍃🍃🍃
Nice! Wish you had a link for the plans.
Muito bom parabéns 👍🇧🇷👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷👍👍
如果底下的横杠不用胶水粘就完美了。
Do you have plans and or measurements available?? Thanks Randy
No, sorry. If you want to make it you'll have to intuit the sizes and lengths. Really it should be pretty guessable, but I recommend using a little creativity and giving it a go! Just don't mess up like I did!
How long did it took you tu buid this?
Hmm maybe 8-10 hours
I want to buy this stool so plz tell me how can I buy this stool
Good Luck my friend I could not even get the guy to come off of the measurements
Boohoo, Randy.
8:20 😂
Sometimes you have to go with the inspiration!
