5 min timber frame tenon

[@Mark-id7fq]

Beginner here, gonna take on a simple post & beam garden pavilion and don’t want to buy thousands in tools. Best video I found yet to cut mortise & tenon. Thank you!

[@edwardbirch3849]

Just discovered your framing videos. Thank you for such great advice for an old timer (nearly eighty) taking on my first framing project. Just wish I had started sooner. Wales UK

Great thanks for your videos A greeting from Spain I am 60 years old, 30 years old as a carpenter and I still learn from you, thanks again

[@picklestimberframes4808]

You are very welcome

[@boywonder6659]

What a lovely piece of timber.

[@reverendsonhouse]

Impressive craftsmanship, sir!

[@kthschsslr]

I added a shelf to the bottom of the top cross beam of my sawhorses. Handier than a nearby workbench top. Tried adding bench dog style holes, but they’re never used anymore, I use a clamp like yours.

[@ButlerMillWorks]

Thanks for sharing this on KZbin! I wish I could come apprentice in your shop but for now, your videos will have to do.

[@picklestimberframes4808]

Glad you like them!

[@whirled_peas]

Working on a frame now - i notice your timber slips a little on the trestles, recommend sticking a bit of cork or rubber on top the trestle, makes it easier to flip too and doesn’t marr the corners

[@islandhopperstuart]

Superb skill and efficiency. Still taking me the best part of an hour to do one, but getting quicker! Interested to know why you shave the tenon shoulders as you seemed to cut right to the line. Is the finish from the saw insufficiently flat? Thanks again for your guidance!

[@whirled_peas]

Essentially yes, every mm matters in a timber frame. I’d argue the tenon faces don’t need to be pared and can be sawn to finish as they’re never a bearing surface

[@whirled_peas]

It’s mainly to get the corner though

[@corymiller9854]

Good vid. I am learning and want to try this out might take me more then 5min:]

[@themountainraven]

Nice, you have a subscriber.

[@keep1treal61]

Can the male part of that joint ever break off and the beam comes straight down?

[@ThisReckless]

My OCD makes me worry about that too. I’m curious about the answer myself.

[@oxdogoxSF]

Gawd that's satisfying.

[@whatyousaidbud]

Nice video, used alot of duggy fir in the early part of this year when restoring 95 windows at a local manor house, I see the tenon was slightly tapered, what angle do you use there?

[@ThisReckless]

Can the tenon ever break and the beam come down?

[@ilantwito]

Why not using a bandsaw?

[@JNineBar]

Nice job!

[@joshuataylor1035]

How fast is the tenon without speeding it up 🤣

[@joseortiz5965]

Awesome. I just have one question , if you don't mind. ?why did you use the chisel from the sides of the tenon and not from the end of the tenon? Or I guess , I should say , is there a reason for that? Ty

[@baldyslapnut.]

Slicing across the grain keeps the tenon cheeks square to the shoulders. Cutting with the grain could see the chisel "diving" into the tenon with any changes of grain direction.

[@alexpaden9320]

can you do a video on your chisels?

[@dp55ful]

will do!

[@edkhoshaba170]

Good job

[@martykimble9999]

Impressive!

[@ZbyszekJot]

In the next episode - a mortise using a circular saw :)

[@startacleaningbiz1014]

stellar

[@aaroncavanaugh7017]

Is there a matching video to show the process to make the matching mortise?

[@uiop545]

and no shortcuts; i'll be happy to do that in one hour :)

[@scottcates]

He's done this a time or two.

[@dc-wp8oc]

Why not do a voice over and mute the saw noise? If instruction is the goal, then demonstrate what constitutes acceptable techniques. What are some pitfalls to avoid? State the process then perform the process. Just playing obnoxious soundtrack while operating a tool, conveys very little.

[@zekehartmann3076]

Beginners be ware.

[@picklestimberframes4808]

This is for beginners, timber framing does not need to be overly complicated.

[@chaliphmahol2922]

Make it possible with 5 minutes of work! No, it's fake.
