Building French Oak Cabinets - Scarf Joints | Atelier Mateus Daily Recap #5

[@annacatling6211]

Can I say how refreshing it is to see a left-handed craftsperson. I am 70 and left-handed. The world is designed by and for right-handers. Watching right-handers work is at best 'uncomfortable' for lefties. Bravo Teresa.

[@AtelierMateus]

Thank you Anna 🙏🤚

[@jameshawks7988]

Outstanding skill set! I'm a 70-year-old woodworker, this is most impressive.

[@AtelierMateus]

Thank you James!!

Good morning 🌅, Very nice work, great to see young people learning old skills, as a lot of people are learning new things, CNC , I am a retired specialist joiner/cabinet maker self taught, from the uk living in France,

[@AtelierMateus]

Thank you for the kind words!

Bonito trabalho, excelentes grampos e uma grande marcenaria 🌸 Não há nada como a madeira de carvalho! Le Chêne c'est le Essence du Bois!

[@AtelierMateus]

Obrigado!

[@scottcates]

Brava! -A leftie in Seattle

[@johnkelly6942]

I’m going to have build something so I have an excuse to use that joint detail. NICELY DONE!

[@AtelierMateus]

Go for it!

[@davidclark9086]

A very well made and informative video.

[@AtelierMateus]

Glad you liked it!

[@PIHERCLAMPS]

Un bon choix de serre-joints!! 😀

[@AtelierMateus]

😁

[@ZeeFrankensteel]

Quelle est la marque de ces serre-joints?

[@FrancoisLemarbre]

​@@ZeeFrankensteella réponse dans le nom...piherclamps!

[@snowwalker9999]

The best and purest most organic hobby and art in the world. 🌹🙏

[@AtelierMateus]

We love it!

[@AsterFoz]

I think gardening is more 'organic' 😂

[@snowwalker9999]

@ Gardening isn’t a man made craft. It’s management of natural things. You don’t "make" flowers. You help them become more visible.

[@flavioserci6046]

Brava Teresa!

[@Bruno-B]

Joli travail !

[@AtelierMateus]

Obrigado!

[@alejandroleon3365]

Gran trabajo, sólo un comentario para ayudar, aquí en España cuando es muy difícil incrustar una pieza, utilizamos una gota de jabón líquido de las manos (también aceite de máquina) para untar la parte de la pieza a introducir y facilita muchísimo el trabajo. Me gusta ver trabajar a una zurda, es curiosa la impresión. Acabo de descubrir que sois portugueses, hermanos y vecinos nuestros, ahora me suscribo !!! Espero haber ayudado !!!!

[@AtelierMateus]

Obrigado Alejandro! Nós usamos cera na ponta dos dowels (Acho que saltámos essa parte no vídeo), um abraço! 🇪🇸

[@bristleconepinus2378]

we may speak different languages but we both use the same glue.

[@AtelierMateus]

😂

[@jamesalanstephensmith7930]

Ce Bon! (I hope that is right)

[@GRAYnomad]

A transfer punch would be better than a drill bit to get those internal hole centers. Nice work though.

[@AtelierMateus]

Thank you for the tip!

[@stephenwatson1873]

How lovely to see a young professional woman in a workshop dressed appropriately, no unnecessary flesh showing. Lovely job thank you for sharing

[@miguelsuarez8010]

You're right. I just eliminate those click catchers

[@Riley-yy1yv]

It’s up to a woman whether she shows flesh, it’s not up to your personal tastes

[@devemch7851]

Wonderful work! Well Done! Esp. in our world of melamine and MDF and Particle board. I love those clamps! What are they and where does one find them?

[@AtelierMateus]

Thank you! Piher, Spanish brand if I’m not mistaken. They sell on Amazon Spain and Dictum. Very good clamps for the right task, they’re heavy.

[@dusty7264]

Do you offset the holes slightly so they pull the joint together, we do in Timber Framing. Looks good to me

[@AtelierMateus]

Yes, between 1 and 2 mm 👍

[@dryfie]

Can yiu discuss that work vest? Brand etc...thanks

[@AtelierMateus]

Hello! It’s from Homecore, they have stores in Portugal and France (also online)

[@kidbengala8362]

[@TimothyRourke]

What necessitates the scarf joints? Are the total dimensions too large otherwise?

[@AtelierMateus]

Hi Timothy, they are total 2.8m long. It’s useful to keep it straight and also a design choice

[@AsterFoz]

When I saw a vest I thought it's a German video but no... this is the 'wrong' type of a vest. German woodworkers have shorter vests with 8 huge buttons.

[@AtelierMateus]

For us it feels like the right type of Vest 😍 we have worked with German internships before and gotta say that the woodworking tradicional belt/trousers are very nice
