As an apprenticed trained cabinet maker of 50 years it is refreshing to see a tradesman use hand tools especially the plough plan. Keep up the good work, stay safe and keep the video coming.
As a cabinet maker just out of apprenticeship last year it's really exciting to see. I wish they'd teach us more about hand tools and how to use them, not just the basic "how to plane a board to dimensions"
I’ve converted over to a lot of hand tool work as well. The set up time decreases as you get used to the tool, and the accuracy and finish of the joints does as well. Took me a good week to get the hang of a plow plane. Well done.
This has been a great series. The planes used to make the drawer runners was fascinating. Good if you've got them tho :) I like your comment on how effectively the old tools work - people tend to go for the modern technology "because it's new, must be better". Oh, a smear of bee's wax on the drawer slides will make them glide. Cheers Joey.
Beautiful job and it keeps you busy. Looking at the top I might have cut an identical butterfly for the other end and just laid it in place and see how it looks just to balance it up.
Great series Joey. Nice to see that you can turn to hand tools when isolation sets in, and interesting that they can be quicker - my guess is that that does not include planing to size.....
Came out looking really nice. Something to look at and remember these strange times for sure. Motivation for me to try to make the most of this time. Thanks man!
I use a Stanley No.50. I find pre-scoring the edge of the proposed cut with a marking knife gives a cleaner edge than without any or even with the scorers fitted. Further scoring using the marking knife as the cut goes deeper also helps for a sharper finish.
This has been a fantastic series, picked up a lot of tips. I really like the drawer front very clean without a drawer pull. I was wondering when the apprentice would show up lol. You and your family stay safe.
You're awesome man. Really inspiring to see you make this side table with hand tools, away from your shop. It doesn't have to be perfect, because no one is perfect. Great work!
I’ve really enjoyed this series, thanks for sharing. It’s interesting to hear that some of the hand tools are quicker than a machine. It’s definitely something I’ll consider in the future. Cheers! 👍🏻
As always Joey great job. So happy to of found your channel years ago you are a great craftsman. Hope everything works out for you after this pandemic. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Love the finished product. 👌 It was a very interesting series , i think you and the vieuwers learned a lot from this project ,at least i did. Top notch Joey.👍
I think it came out fantastic! Nice simple lines. Jon Peters made a very similar table & these two compliment each other. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!
It looks awesome lots of old furniture wasn't perfect but they look great. last a lifetime Hope all is going well for you and your family during the lockdown. All the best 😍
Beautiful table Joey. To Quote a Queenslander.. Hand tools are cool. :) And Paul Sellers will definitely take you as a convert LOL. We've seen you use hand tools in the past so was a little surprised at your comments at the back end. I can understand as a commercial shop you have to get the pieces through and to your customer. So maybe more hand tools use when you get back into the shop?? Looking forward to it. Keep your head up and keep smiling, I'm sure all will be well after the lock down ends.
Thanks for this series Joey. If your looking for video ideas, I for one would love to see a deep dive into that box of planes. There looked to be some very interesting things going on in there, that we don't really see being used very much
9:40 I would of clamped a straight length of timber on where the gauge line is and used it as a guide for the dado plane to run against. Thanks for the video joey.
Really loved this series! Thanks for doing it! And the piece came out pretty nicely! I’ve been working on incorporating hand tools for certain things and sometimes it is indeed surprising how fast they can be. Although you won’t catch me resawing by hand haha!
Hello! Great table you made! I followed the process every time you posted a video on RU-vid. Thank you for the interesting movie. :) And also, I really liked your magic box with planers. :) In one of your videos, you made a long groove-dovetail and used the tool from this box there. I even then drew attention to the plane you used. If you have time, could you show and tell in more detail about this tool, how it is arranged, which blade and can I manage to try to make myself a couple of such planers.? Thank you again. Take care of yourself and good luck.
It's hard to gauge what you mean by quicker. Or, perhaps more precisely, how much quicker. How long did this take you? How long would it have taken in the workshop? Great videos. I've really enjoyed seeing someone, who does this for clients, work through issues vs the more production (as in Hollywood production) workshops I see around here. Thanks so much.
Impresionante el trabajo realizado. Una pena no poder entenderle. Podría haber una aplicación que lo tradujese al español. El juego de cepillos me a gustado muchísimo. Se podrían comprar? Y donde si se puede?
I wonder what you will build next? You're probably running out of stock at your house so consider this. When I was a kid playing around at my dad's work bench (I had my own set of miniature tools), I decided to make copies of the coffee table and end tables that were in my parents Livingroom. Yes I had some help and the spindles were not quite round, but they did look like the full size version. I was filled with a sense of accomplishment at the age of 8 or 9. I'm guessing that yours are younger but how about involving them in some way while building miniatures using the scraps from the build you just completed? Just a thought. Take care.
Our government has put a total lockdown in place where we cant leave our houses for 4 weeks except for food and medical . After the 4 weeks I should be able to go back to work in a limited way.

@@KingPostTimberWorks Wow. I think these are the most strict regulations I've heard so far...
I can't watch this anymore. Something I can do in 2 minutes with a router bit, you are doing in 20 minutes with hand planes. Just too frustrating!!!! Not my cup of tea. Good luck.
