Foundation in Chairmaking: Session 2-2 Using kiln dried wood in "greenwood" chairs

[@pinkiebrain7597]

I bought the full course but want to let you know that I absolutely love that you are making this knowledge available to everyone for free. It was an eye opener for me.

[@ericrichter7933]

Just finished my second watch through! Thank you for such good information

[@DavidParker]

I have watched this video 3 or 4 times! Such a good explanation! This is making me look at wood in a whole new way!

[@ntyhurst]

i appreciate making this available for free. thank you. i wish i lived close enough to come to one of your classes. maybe come out to do a class in the SF Bay Area?

[@inspectr1949]

Being in my 70's reality has set in that I can no longer pursue this kind of very physical wood working but I sure do appreciate it my advice is take please full advantage of Peter's timely lead and guidance before your too old like me.

[@patrickcasey1150]

This is just superb - really well explained, paced and presented. I've been looking for this kind of content for years and I'm so pleased I found this channel. Thank you for all your work Peter Galbert!

[@mssangra4030]

Thank you so much. I now understand how to read wood. Excellent presentation. Very well paced and easy to understand. Please keep up good work and spreading the knowledge. Thank you

[@chrisedie2307]

Thank you for making this available, it is such a useful resource. Off to play with some 2x4s in the workshop!

[@PeterGalbert]

awesome, lemme know what you discover

[@TheSMEAC]

Thank you very much Peter! I’ve learned so much from you. It’s also uncanny how what I’m learning plays such a big role in other woodworking too; i.e. How the direction I have pegs/drawbores positioned can positively or negatively impact just how well the joint will move over time. Some things are intuitive, but learning the not so intuitive tips really expands knowledge multiplicatively.

Hi Peter, Indeed this is a very, very good demo. of hand made chair, including lots of experience and knowledge. Wonderful!! but just need to start practicing when not too old. Thanks a lot!

[@bobbabcock3847]

Outstanding, best discussion on grain and fibre orientation I/ve understood

[@Secymin]

A stunningly informative video. Thanks for posting it.

[@MJ-nb1qn]

Mr. Galbert you are a Master! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@jellyartist]

Superb videos. Entertaining, informative and very watchable.

[@conraddelia8573]

Genius and great guy.

[@goglebert]

i would be happy to a comparison of how your maethod is better than just a randomly cut piece of the same size soaked and bent

[@PeterGalbert]

it's a very good question. I've bent lots of wood and observed that the failures often happen where the materials surface is not in alignment with the fibers. That said, real science would require doing both for comparison, perhaps I'll give it a try when I get a chance.

[@goglebert]

that's gonna have more real marketing potential imao. your didacture is joyful and hypnotising, but when it goes about infoproduct people would like seeing more proofness in advertising when they have doubts. cheers n my best wishes for you

[@sethwarner2540]

OK Imat about at 20:00, and you are saying I should not try to STEER the split but just split it then split the rest parallel. This is good info for reading the grain, but how to intigrate teaching I received about steering the split.

[@noelpapineau9101]

wow, good info,how long is that bow

[@anthonymoraes3251]

The best!

[@christophereverett8385]

Woodworking is dangerous and should be practiced under any conditions?

[@crunchysaviour]

Because it's unfortunately easier to get money by suing Peter Galbert because you cut your own arm off with a bandsaw than it is to earn it honestly through decades of hard-earned skill in the noble and traditional craft of fine chairmaking, i guess! 😉
