There are basic concepts in woodworking that you just sort of pick up along your journey as a woodworker. Fundamentals that no one really talks about because they’re just so ingrained that they’ve become second nature. Well, today I’m sharing 15 woodworking basics that I think every woodworker should know.

Being a bit dyslexic, I measure thrice, cut twice and discard because I built the whole thing backwards.

@lacaval 7 месяцев назад

I thought i am the only one doing this 😂

@SeaFanStudio 7 месяцев назад

And if I measured right in one of the 3 measures, I'm having a good day!

@anthonyhull1450 8 месяцев назад

I don’t call it making a mistake. I call it cutting the perfect sized board for a future project.

This is the most concise, no nonsense, perfect tips for getting started woodworking. Been at it for 30 yrs and this breaks down all the basics that takes experience to learn. Love the breakdown, love your organized shop, and love the no BS presentation. Thank you for taking the time to share. That was one heck of a kickback, hope that one never actually happens!

@sazennonumber 5 месяцев назад

The kickback was fantastic!! 😂

@QuantumGravy Месяц назад

Came to say this - this was so concise and well worded. Super charismatic overall too, it was entertaining the whole time!

@daveymcg53 4 месяца назад

Rarely have I come across a video such as this. It is 13:19 long, not a second wasted, not a word too many. Wonderful!

@alsclub 8 месяцев назад

I'm an experienced woodworker but I still loved this video. You are an amazing presenter. Keep up the great work.

@elsteak 8 месяцев назад

Very realistic reenactment of a kickback in the face :)

@TheRaven0811 8 месяцев назад

Maybe it's exactly like that... slow motion but you can't get out of the way.

@DIYMontreal 8 месяцев назад

😁 Just glad it's never actually happened to me!

@frederickmichaud6783 8 месяцев назад

I doubt there’s enough time to react before getting impaled!😮 (I’m happy to add that I say that without any first-hand (or face) experience.)

I've found this simple rule for router direction easy to remember: With your right hand, point your thumb at the edge, and your forefinger will point the way you should move the router Love your videos--thank you! You do a great job of balancing being succinct with providing us with just the right amount of information. Plus, you explain in a way that most everyone can understand. Lastly, you use tools that most of us can afford 👍

@DIYMontreal 8 месяцев назад

Great router tip! And appreciate the feedback :)

@cferrara1125 8 месяцев назад

The thumb forefinger is the bomb. Thanks

@scopace314 4 месяца назад

A well presented quick list of all the mistakes and misconceptions a newbie will encounter. Save yourself 1-2 years of headaches and take notes people, this is gold!

@HawkFest 5 месяцев назад

Concise, clear, straight to the point, without narcissistic and unrelated story telling bla bla... As a beginner (and for my own taste+needs), I highly value such tutorials. Thank you very much, subscribed.

@keithmarlowe5569 8 месяцев назад

I know it's not the topic du jour, but I like the simplicity and functionality of your shop organization. A tidy shop is a safe and productive shop.

@GroundedFlyboy737 8 месяцев назад

One of the best wood working videos I've ever seen, thank you.

@neilpountney9414 7 месяцев назад

It never hurts to go over the basics no matter how long you have been woodworking. Nice Video Thank you Marie.

@uwishpal 7 месяцев назад

This is the most realistic for beginners I’ve seen. I watch tips and tricks all the time, but I’m not a beginner by any means. Most videos like this I come across are too advanced and don’t explain the basics. There’s a couple tips in here that I haven’t seen in any video I’ve ever watched so great work.

@shaynesabala 7 месяцев назад

Those were really good tips for beginners. I remember building some drawer fronts for the first time and didn’t consider the blade kerf and had some measurements I couldn’t figure out lol. It all worked out but it’s something new wood workers would never think of, I know I didn’t at the time. Thanks for the video.

@Bobbyg2018 8 месяцев назад

I have watched hundreds of woodworking videos and this is the first I've seen that explains about calculating the board feet so easily. Also haven't heard about the closed grain and open grain before. Thanks much. Subscribed!

@DIYMontreal 8 месяцев назад

Awesome! Glad you liked it

@PikkaBird 8 месяцев назад

There are a few videos showing how open grained oak is, especially red oak. I was personally quite amazed by this one: watch?v=L6t2AZubF8U

@davidjennings2179 2 месяца назад

Straightforward advice from someone you can tell knows what they're talking about. Perfect.

@markbryan9989 8 месяцев назад

Good basic reminders even for those of us that have been doing it for awhile! Thanks Marie.

@DIYMontreal 8 месяцев назад

You bet!

@danielcotnoir3363 8 месяцев назад

The dramatic reenactment of the kickback effect was the most compelling argument for both the need for safety in the workshop and for the support of the arts! Bravo! ❤

@stephenmoore2561 8 месяцев назад

This is a must see video for all beginner woodworkers!

@AncoraImparoPiper 8 месяцев назад

All the basics I needed to know when I started woodworking in just 13 minutes. Plus, I've been struggling with cross cutting using mitre saw and circular saw due to not being sure where to place the blade. Now I know! How much frustration this will save me from now on.

@VietTran-xl2ms Месяц назад

OK dokey....SUBSCRIBED. No nonsense and quality production. Bravo. I am about to begin my personal journey in to the art of woodmaking. Your information is gold. Need all the tips and guidance I can get.

@elliejohnson2786 8 месяцев назад

As someone who has only taken woodworking in a highschool class, I'm really happy with how much of this I knew. I guess that class was informative after all

@brucewilliamsstudio4932 8 месяцев назад

I didn't learn anything new, but I must say I'm very impressed by your common sense tips. Keep up the great work.

@timothycreasy2161 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for explaining the method to calculate board feet. Any other person who talked about that just glanced over it, or talked over my head. So thank you

@Uswesi1527 8 месяцев назад

You hit the nail right on the head. Very important & essential precautions , especially safety matters . Thanks

@Bishop5ly 8 месяцев назад

Very informative! I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone breakdown softwood and hardwood, as well as, sanding. Like you just did. Good job 👍

@marksteppan.bazinga 8 месяцев назад

This is awesome for beginners, thank you! I'm sure this would make a great serie if you ever had more basic tips like these :)

@DIYMontreal 8 месяцев назад

Thanks! will try to keep a list going for a future video.

@ZER0MPH 8 месяцев назад

I agree with this. 😊

@SawdustmakerLori 8 месяцев назад

This would be so helpful for beginners and a good refresher for more experienced woodworkers! Thanks for sharing. I always enjoy your video's!!!

@mihail0011 4 месяца назад

Thank you! Everything you said is very important for me and for every beginner carpenter. I really found a lot of information in this video, which I could not find elsewhere.

@AI-oz6ju 8 месяцев назад

Excellent refresher on some of the items we take for granted. Thank you!

@itawad 7 месяцев назад

Great video. I like the clear presentation with not too many over the top moves and edits. Thank you, very useful

@johnfowler6085 4 месяца назад

Loved this. Been woodworking for 40 years and still went "Oh sh!t, why don't I do that anymore?" Everyone should be made to watch this video at least once before ever picking up a saw.

@xl000 4 месяца назад

You don't learn from other people mistakes Also who is going to have you watch this ? OSHA ? Home Depot?

@tiredgardener 11 дней назад

It has been many a year since I did woodworking, it is a hobby I am thinking of returning too some time very soon. So your video is very helpful. Also, your working area looks very well organised, safe, and easy to navigate.

@marcdebroin6700 8 месяцев назад

Fantastic video. It brought me back when I worked in a woodshop in the 1980’s. I particularly enjoyed the security part. Keep up the good work.

@cami-loo108 Месяц назад

Oh my god, the storage of your sandpaper and drills are so satisfying. As a new woodworker, I appreciate your knowledge

@bbushman4fitness 7 месяцев назад

Great summary. Love your direct and clear presentation style.

@kristyhopkins6152 6 месяцев назад

that's right, very concise and not alot of extra talk. Love it as i am new and trying to learn more about different woodworking. Thank you and keep it coming.

@GD-os8mz 2 месяца назад

Wow!!! I’m just starting with woodworking and have been watching tons of RU-vid videos tiger started. Yours is the first one to explain any of these basics. Thank you so much!!!

@philosophusbellator 3 месяца назад

One of the most useful videos I've run across in a long time. Especially calculating board feet and the 50% rule on sandpaper. Thank you!

@briantaylor9266 8 месяцев назад

Great video. I'm glad you put "Wood Moves" as #1. And I always appreciate your wise words on safety and PPE. Just as an interesting side note, larch (aka tamarack) is classified as a softwood but is used for end-grain cutting boards. But that's really getting into the weeds. Your point is 100% valid - don't use soft woods for cutting boards.

@nutzer12121 7 месяцев назад

Another Side Note: Red Oak is one of the few Open grain Oak, Most Western Europe Oak got closed grain, wh, you could use them AS cutting Boards and for Barrels etc.

@k1sfd1974 8 месяцев назад

Great guide for beginners! Only thing that I’d add is when you’re “Measuring twice”, try to always use the same measuring device. Especially if you are trying to work in tight tolerances. I’ve seen tape measures that are off by a mm up to even 1/16”. All it takes is a measurement being just a little off (add maybe marking it slightly shy as well) and it can be frustrating. When I get a new tape measure in my shop, I always check it against others. Keep up the great content! Edited for spelling & grammar

@DIYMontreal 8 месяцев назад

Good tip!

@H.G.Wells-ishWells-ish 8 месяцев назад

Absolutely! Or what I sometimes do Is start my measure at the 1" mark and add an inch to the desired measure length. Best used on short measurements.

@kevinwillis6707 8 месяцев назад

Iwill add ....don't assume a square is square, lots of cheaper ones are anything but, causes no end of problems for beginners

@SaborLatino21 4 месяца назад

I truly enjoyed your carpentry class very much, and to think that my Dad wanted to teach me; but when you're young, lazy, and a rebel, all you want to do is to fly away. However, he did show me a few things. After watching your video, I'm starting to become interested. Guess what? Now I miss my Dad, and I wish he was here; to share it with him. I retired 1 1/2 years ago, and now I got to find me a habit; or I'll go stir crazy.Thank you very much. I truly appreciated it.

@MBLStacks 7 месяцев назад

I just finished my first year cabinetmaker apprenticeship in Calgary and this video is amazing for beginners like myself. Awesome to see that you included board feet as well! Cheers.

@ree2305 8 месяцев назад

Thank you for the information. I’m new to woodworking so I found the info very helpful

@vakuraaaah Месяц назад

Genuinely stoked to have come across this video. I’ve been playin’ and pawin’ at woodworking for 3 years now, and after digesting these invaluable tips, I feel so much more adequately equipped to tackle complex projects and make those pricier, stress-inducing cuts with confidence (and accuracy, I hope). I come from a family of carpenters-all male-and as a female just kinda dippin’ my bits into the woodworking scene and learning as I go, I find it encouraging to come across an established woman professional who is articulate, knowledgeable, and highly skilled..but doesn’t take herself *too* seriously. 😅😅 So anyway-Thanks!

@JohnHenrySheridan 2 месяца назад

Very thorough and helpful tips! I've been amateur woodworking for several years and a lot of these tips were either new to me or clarified. Thanks!

@Partlycloudy70degrees 5 месяцев назад

This has been such a helpful video for someone who is brand new to woodworking, and I appreciate all the time and effort you took to make this really informative video.

I miss machines like this. Thank you so much for this amazing look inside. Just one thing in Australia we would call the “Shooter” the “Launcher” and the “Return Shoot “ the “Shooter”

@darodes 4 месяца назад

I learned most of this the hard way over the last couple years… would have loved to have this video when I started. Keep it up 👍

@markpapp8784 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for this. I think I knew your tips already, but I really loved your broom bristle analogy to demonstrate the rip v. cross cut grain. Also, there's never any harm in being reminded!

@chrisbarry4467 7 месяцев назад

Excellent job. It always helps to remind people of the right and wrong way of doing things

@d-not_telling 6 месяцев назад

Yep. I’m a newbie to a lot of this. This is the kind of videos I have been looking for. Thanks

@Declan4253 2 месяца назад

The first video I saw of yours was the 'are more expensive drills worth it?' video. I had to upgrade to a 18v from my beloved 12v makita and that video helped me. I picked milwaukee electric and I see you kept those once you tried them. I don't blame you. They are next level. I love using them.
