Chisels are great for so many things. Especially because they can be used for rough or fine stock removal. I think there’s a tendency to watch instructional videos from some really great carpenters and think you need to have these absolutely perfect mechanics to use a chisel correctly. Well, that’s just not true and to be honest, a chisel is a really simple tool to use if you follow a few basic strategies. Obviously the more practice you get the better but there’s no reason you can’t get amazing results in the early stage of your journey.

I have watched a lot of wood working videos over the last several years, including a lot on chiseling. I have to say this was the most useful I have seen on the basic techniques and you teach it in a way that takes the pressure of the beginner woodworker to not try to be perfect. This is one of your most useful videos, and you have a lot of them! Thank you.

You brought back my Shop class in Junior High School... our teacher spent hours teaching us how to sharpen plane blades and chisels with a wet stones. Great videos, I watch one or two woodworking videos each morning with my Coffee... getting back into woodworking after a couple of decades off... I shouldn't say that because I do a lot of home repairs to my house and also I have done mission work as well, rough work framing, roofing, plumping, electrical... etc!!! . When I say I'm coming back I mean doing some cabinet work in the house... been fixing my shop/garage up... in other word's finding my tools and organizing. Made French Cleats on one wall and expanding, built two sleds... book case next week I hope! Again Great videos... PS: I like that sled stop you came up with... saw it was out of stock... I'll keep watching for it! Keep up the good work!

I have always loved and respected wood working. Something i learned real quick though is respect that chisel and wear closed toed shoes. Went to get a bench grinder today i had to order it though, i cant wait.

I need to work, again, on my chisel sharpening techniques. In Grade 9 woodshop class, I got to be the official chisel sharpener, especially repairing the mistakes other classmates made, because I had been doing it with my father for 4 or 5 years before that. Now that I have some of my grandpas old chisels, I need to get them back into fine fettle to be used again. I'm saving up for slow grinder, or barring that, definitely a variable speed grinder. Great information as always.

I started a quick little cut, realized I was doing it wrong at the very same moment the chisel slipped… fortunately no ER visit but lesson learned… the hard way. I learned a lot from this video!!

Rubber hammer are great when I use chisel. They prevent some of the step back you explained when you hammer it and it go back of where you want to go. I, too, use to put my chisels straight into my fist to have the most control possible on the trajectory. Nice video. A lot of good things I've learned.
@mathquir190

I'm probably just strange but I did develop a technique where I do anchor chisel into my fist that is anchored to the piece I work with and use the chisel on the other side and slide i horizontally. It act like a planner if you look at the blade... i just slide the wood always away from the line. even when I hammer it I always go that way so the angle is going forward instead of backward and I'm always sure I don't take away the wood inside. Then I can do the same to the point/line and make it square. It's really effective and precise but you have to work your angle over. When you work the other side you really have to have a fine and sharp edge to be precise. That's why I want to fine sharpen all my chisel and use both ways. Dependent of the angle you want or the grain of the wood you have to know both.

I have made several chisel 'shooting boards. Made them so I can clamp to the side of a piece and the right angle piece goes across the end of the mortice, or across like that shouldered piece you did here. Also made some at dove tail angles. Now, I need to figure one like the guide on the rabbit planes for how wide you want your rabbit.

If I have to flatten out a portion I use a wide 2 inch chisel. The greater width gives me a bit more control so I don't have one edge dipping down. Also, if the tip of the tool is too hot to the touch then you need to dip it to cool it off.

Great video, but not exactly what I was looking for. My Ag Principles class is working on making a birdhouse out of wood. I've already sawed a 5 inch piece of wood and a 7 inch piece with a 45 degree angle. Now we're on to chiseling down the length of the 7 inch piece of wood, but the thing is we have to chisel down the middle. We have no training other than one short instructional video that isn't even this one. I have no idea how to go about this, and quite frankly I'm nervous because my partner has already got himself and me cut twice each. I'm afraid to cut myself even once because I don't want to have any more than I already have.

When you're doing the paper test remember that paper has a grain. Even a very sharp knife has trouble cutting across the grain so it won't be representative of the sharpness of the tool, do the sharpness test parallel to the grain. On standard printer paper the grain seems to be running in the long direction.

@TrevorDennis100
@TrevorDennis100 2 жыл бұрын
The point is not to let the edge get to a critical temperature. If it blues you have ruined the temper. Light straw is a touch over 200°C and I would have thought that OK. Something Jonathan did not mention is CBN wheels have the advantage of not heating the chisel so much. Because they are metal, they draw the heat away.

Quick tip. Keep a bottle of super glue on the bench. Closing that cut quickly and completely makes healing faster. Trust me

Diamonds stones cost have come way down. You can get a decent double sided one for around $50-$60. There are some even cheaper that i'm doing a long term test on now to see if they stand up

One thing I struggle with and on which no one seems to go over is: How do I get a good clean bottom on a mortise? Especially on small mortises. I get my sides clean and well, but the bottom is rather bumpy and I can't see a good way to get that clean other than scraping around with my chisel, which dulls them pretty fast and leaves by far not the best results. Any advice on this? I'd be very thankful!

You should get to final depth with you router or router plane if you're a hand tools guy. If it's not a through mortise who cares? It could be ugly as all hell but no will ever see it again once you put glue in there

Cutting paper with a sharpened edge will dull the edge. Just drag your finger over it, you can feel if there is a burr and how sharp it is. You can see the shine on the edge if it's sharp.

I went through a bunch of this advice and sharpening classes, wish someone told me to buy a Tormek, Katz should cover this, sharpening like this is a huge waste of time.

What I do not understand, is why the Japanese chisels do not have a secondary bevel like the western ones and what is the difference for best result. Thanks.

Where is the PDF for the Katz Moses 2 in 1 sharpening jig? I bought one and I don’t see it in the links in this video, or the website underneath the 2 in 1 sharpening jig product page or even in the Plans sections on the website.

If you’re going to use a brass hammer on wood then you might as well use steel. Both are much harder than wood and will dent it just as easily as the next.

14:40 I noticed that you have a plaster around your finger... Most probably you cut your finger in the kitchen?... Just kidding, I'm a subscriber and I love your videos!!!... Shit happens, regardless how careful we are!... I agree, the sharper any cutting tool, the safer!... a Blunt cutting tool is dangerous since you need to use force in order to get the job done! 😉🖐️🍻👍👍👍
