The first half of the kzbin.infoUgkx3ICSK6nSknaL_45CU2NmFSoXjarGMDiJ book is everything about wood: types, tools, finishes, setting up shop etc. The second half is all about doing projects for inside and outside of the home. The color pictures are helpful. After reading a dozen of these types of books, this is probably the best overall (layout, color photos, plans). Only detraction is that many of the projects use a table saw/router/planer, which are usually expensive and take up space, so the plans are less friendly to newcomers and the budget conscious. But I know I can use a drill, circular saw or a jigsaw to make the projects.

That was genius using the oscillating tool to make those cuts at 6:20. People usually do them with multiple passes with the saw and a chisel. Great tip!
@paulthomas8262
@paulthomas8262 Жыл бұрын
make sure you account for the swing of the oscillation. keep it 2-3m or 1/8th away from from the corner in order not cut into he corner an it will work well. Also a variable speed helps, cut a test piece to the the speed a pressure to prevent burn as different wood cuts differently.

We reviewed hundreds of videos and images of pergolas and this was our favorite design so we built one from cedar. Love the arches, the ease of brackets over mortises, and the beefy posts and beams! We've had many compliments already and I tell people where we got the idea and plans. We referred to this video tens of times during construction, printed all the diagrams, used all the templates, and even benefited from the material links...I could only find some materials by clicking your links as a search on the store's site didn't list some things. Thanks for taking the time to create a beautiful and practical design, record your build, and provide all the plans and info for free to help people like us!

The slight underside arches gives it a nice look. Most pergolas come out a little too linear/boxy looking.

You have put together a very nice video on building a Pergola with very little assistance needed. I am going to be building a triangle Pergola, but I like the way you planned and prepared a way for you to make it without being complicated. I'm glad you mentioned the laser level. I happen to have one and that will be so valuable when I want to level the footings.

Thanks for presenting such impressive demonstration. It came up beyond my expectation specially the way that all the decorated beams look consistent while they were not factory made! It's common in Australia to put the stands deep into the concrete before it sets rather than letting it to set and then drill a long hole, but it doesn't take any credit of the great job which you have done. I absolutely respect and endorse it.

Beautiful work! This is very inspiring! The only thing I’d do differently is when you put the holes in the concrete for the post base. Instead of brushing the dust off, vacuum it off. It’s easier to get the bolt in with no dust in the hole.

Ok - I just downloaded your template for the arch - how cool THANKS! Our pergola is to be 16' x 18' and attached to the house (so only 2 - 8"x8" posts). You have such a great design AND you built this single handedly (sans the 'muscle' for the posts) You didn't made it look like they were very heavy ... THEY ARE! I'm not as talented as you, so my husband and I are building it together. Once we're done I'll come back an add a pic. This video is saving us $5,000. We had a quote to have it built for $8,400. Rather than pay all that we bought the wood ourselves (bad timing because wood prices are HIGH; it was just over $3K!) Thank you very much. You've gained me as a big fan!! We have the 2 post footings poured and set. I'm in the process of cutting the arches (takes a while, even though our modified design has only 7 cuts). As soon as this rain stops, the ledger board will get fastened to the house, then the fun part begins. As a side note, I loved your 'persuasion' technique. Made me chuckle.

very impressive that you did this project mostly by yourself, most can not do it. my comment to you is to put on mask next time when you deal with concreate dust. when installing rafters, put the first one in first and use the spacer to put the rest in for just one end and then go to the other end, this will make the job quicker. over all great job 10/10
