When cutting the dovetail pins you switched saws… why?

@@wheels2757 my primary saw is in need of a sharpening, so I switched to my back-up. Not ideal as the kerfs are different, so I had to account for this when I changed.

Holy shit balls!!! I stumbled on your IG page this morning and went down the rabbit hole. Just got done watching this video and immediately subscribed. I’ve been gushing about your amazing work to my wife all morning. I’ve done woodworking off & on for years but never anything this intricate…my perfectionism and impatience are at odds with each other. Can’t wait to watch more of your videos. And I’m learning loads of things I never thought possible so thanks for that! Respect from Texas

How did you go about applying the dark veneer to the edges of the central cross?
@RPBasilio Ай бұрын
@@1deerndingo Haha - so this is one of two processes that I wasn’t able to capture for this video (because of my terrible video skills 🤣). Once I had the door panel glued-up (with the cross) I decided that it needed more dimension. I sliced up some thin walnut strips, laid them on the panel and traced them with a knife. I then carefully removed the veneer waste with a router plane and then added the walnut strips with hide-glue. Once that was done, it went back into the vacuum press.
@1deerndingo Ай бұрын
I saw you have your glue in little bottles, Is that just for convenience or do you store the bulk in a way to prolong its shelf life. And, was that hide glue you used to glue that complete sheet tothe door panel?
@RPBasilio Ай бұрын
@@1deerndingo I started using smaller bottles simply because of the ease of use. It’s easier to use and much more convenient. Not to mention it’s much less wasteful than the larger bottles with the larger tips. And for the panel glue-up, I used Old Brown Glue. This offers tremendous benefits if you have to make adjustments/fixes afterwards (which for this build I did).

Do you by chance have trouble with snipe when you're planing such short boards? Seems like the bench top planers are really bad about that. And if not, how the heck do you avoid it?

Snipe is always a problem for me and I have spent considerable time trying to adjust the tables. This is typically why I cut my boards 2-3” longer than normal.

@@frankdichiaro1189 hey Frank! I actually assembled the case and then routed a rabbit (had to chisel the corners square) after.

Check out my Instagram post from May 21st. There is a good picture of the back panel. Hope that helps!!!
