How To Make Craftsman Style Tapered Columns

[@reese1ja]

I really like the on the site portion of the videos. Really helpful to see the details of construction outside of the shop.

[@mmanut]

Beautiful. It really draws your eye to the front porch. The railings are going to tie it all together. Great job. Using biscuits on your miters with construction adhesive will pay off, your joints will remain closed for years to come. Enjoy watching someone do a job right. Great video.

[@bwbark]

B...utiful! Watching a real craftsman like yourself is a treat and inspiring!

[@jimmassey5763]

Nice Job John!! Great finishing and trimout.

[@nathanwooler8047]

The columns look fantastic! I really found the process interesting. The little details went a long way to make it look that much better.

[@Mullicamanufactory]

I love the way they look. Good job John.

[@todde269]

Breaking it down to a series of small tasks... that's craftsmanship! GREAT video!

[@denjhill]

Not only do you make everything look easy but it looks really good, too. You've become the go-to guy for practical solutions presented in a simple manner that even I can grasp. Thanks.

[@michaelbrewer8814]

I am building w Tapered wood columns on some brick columns I made. To mimic old country porch. This was very helpful in cutting wood for my wraps. Thanks.

[@KellyBrownwrsd]

Columns turned out really nice. The house is really looking good.

[@IBuildItHome]

Kelly Brown Thanks!

[@tomdenny8507]

Wow! I am greatly impressed with how your columns look. They turned out magnificent.

[@elrayox8932]

Really nice. I grew up in the Pasadena, California area and have a great appreciation for the Craftsman style. Your house really captures it nicely.

[@dnngskn62]

The columns look very nice John. Enjoyed this vid very much and thanks, as always for sharing with us.

[@my_freelance_life]

very nice. I think that the side by side footage is very helpful.

[@charleslambeth4358]

I really like the added decoration at the top of the bottom piece. Great job looking for more.

[@doug.ritson]

Wow John. Coming together very nicely.

[@JoeWeekley]

Looks great, John. Excellent work. It's a joy to watch you work and to see the house come together. Thanks --Joe

[@Jeffferguson1911]

Incredible is the only world which comes to mind. I never imagined the amount of work it taken to do that.

[@scott8351]

I just added some L brackets that I milled up to my existing square porch columns, they look great. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@Castle6064]

the columns are beautiful. Weldone

[@denisskorski3471]

Very nice details for the porch. Thank you for an idea!

[@DaveWindler]

Really liked that jig for holding the tapered columns together while gluing.

[@NB-Philly]

That came out amazing! I love the craftsmanship he did. Hopefully I can emulate this at my home.

[@AndrewKleinWW]

The porch is really looking great, very clever clamping solution for the tapered posts.

[@bellevuesnekkeri]

John Heisz Great Great video John. All the necessery details, and somehow you still make it look easy. Good job, and I love to see you put the icing on the cake these days on you reno.

[@rjb77]

Well done. They look fantastic.

[@craigpereira6381]

House is looking great John. Loving the details you are adding.

[@DarinWixon]

Very nice. I tore down an old craftsman style house about 12 years ago and there were pillars like that on the porch. One of them was filled with yellow jacket nests.

[@brucehumphrey6296]

Great work John. I really enjoy all of you channels

[@JayBates]

All the different details you've recently added are starting to ad up really well. Also love the color theme. It all looks great man.

[@IBuildItHome]

Jay Bates Thanks Jay :)

[@JoeRadman]

That really looks great. The accents match the house perfectly. The clamp method was neat - need to put that in the toolbox. Nice work John.

[@thewoodshop69]

That looks very nice very good craftsmanship

[@russwebster3302]

That looks great John. Nice detail.

[@centerpoint643]

Thanks for taking the time to put together this excellent video !

[@davidbrumfield158]

I'm glad I found your video this is exactly what I'm trying to do

[@rfj289]

Great video John, I'm pleased to say I've begun to use an English version of your beloved construction adhesive! And I have to say I'm very pleased with both its strength and ( with practice ) how easy it is to apply. Thanks again!

[@Shopcat22]

That's one clever clamping system. Great video as always.

[@DBCarpentryNV]

Love watching the progress of how the house is coming together. Looks great!!

[@icdtww6396]

Brilliant clamping for an excellent-looking end product. Thanks so much, once again, for sharing your process.

[@dennisc2795]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@garymccoy2888]

Beautiful. And very cool the way you made them.

[@bobjodoin825]

Looks great John. The house is really coming together nicely.

[@glenmckelvey5952]

Nice job on the columns. Your place is really coming together beautifully.

[@stanek411]

Im really enjoying this home renovation series, great job!

[@leonardomartinslm]

Now I have an idea about this, I can value the work it takes to build it

[@Blazer19742002]

Love how the columns turned out. Can't wait to see what else you'll be doing :-)

[@devogle7905]

Wow, great looking columns, and like your clamping solutions.

[@perryingto]

Absolutely beautiful Thanks for sharing Perry

[@leapinglemurcraftworks6426]

It's all in the details. Looks GREAT John. Great build - love how you did this, it really is done well. It looks great and throw in the pergola, just really nice. Paint scheme is also very nice. Honestly, one of your best builds when it comes to all the little details and tricks in getting this to come out as well as it did. Scott

[@IBuildItHome]

The 2 Car Garage Shop Thanks!

Great video and it's really looking great John. Very inspirational

[@SuperYtviewer]

Beautiful result that truly improves the look of your house. Well done. -Annie

[@emintivo]

Very cool job John

[@SethMesser]

so good John. wish i was a daily passer-by on the street in front of your house so i could witness the progress on a daily basis. never thought i'd be jealous of other drivers. the house across from mine had those craftsman style columns and I always wondered what the tricks of the trade were for their construction. thanks for revealing it.

[@diggerdeb]

Looks great John.

[@mibooth1852]

You are a true craftsman sir, you are also lucky to find clear lumber at Homedepot. Here in Colorado Homedepots only stock twisted, warped, knotty and dripping wet new growth Doug fir that's so wet when you nail it you get splashed in the face! (subscribed) !!

[@Walt1119]

Looks really nice John! Thanks for sharing.

[@maceyloubrown]

Beautiful work!😱🌟👏🏻

[@SmallestWorkshopGH]

Really nice job, well done. Look forward to the continuing story.

[@acraig5075]

Lots of good tips there, thank you.

[@511keyes]

John, that looks really amazing. Thanks for sharing the work!

[@wonderjenproducts]

Omg this is so intense, getting anxiety looking at all the steps and time! You are truly talented! 😎

[@chrisseats]

Really nice work!!!

[@matts490]

Some serious work in them but they’re beautiful, damn.

[@gregevans6741]

Those look really nice

[@CirclesWoodshop]

You are a badass craftsman!

[@AndreaArzensek]

Superb work!

[@TheLittleGardenShedWorkshop]

They look great John, take care Harry

[@RobertHorton1975]

Exquisite work. Quick trivia: Thin strips that are flexed into position to hold a workpiece in place while glue dries are commonly used in building musical instruments. The specialized name in that trade is "go bars".

[@USNERDOC]

Nicely done!

[@boatworkstoday]

Well done ;-) Looks very nice

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

Very nice, the house is really coming along beautifully.

[@rlkellums]

That is looking really nice! Thank you for continually bringing quality content to your channel that is useful to everyone.

[@billfromelma]

Man o man John, those came out great! Time well spent!

[@theElderberryFarmer]

Wow, John - outstanding attention to detail! Makes for a very attractive front facade. Dwight

[@userfriendly06]

Man, the place looks so good! Loving this series.

[@fouroakfarm]

Tapered columns are so classy! Excellent work. I've heard them referred to as "elephantine columns". In my area lots of the post-Edwardian bungalows have these columns on the exterior and interior

[@BrunoBsso]

Outstanding, really nice John!

[@lgallant]

Love that craftsman style! Makes me want to do mine!

[@casst346]

what a great job! Thanks for sharing!

[@majdid1975]

Great As Usual,Thanx 4 Sharing

[@Garageworkshop]

Looks great!

[@BeeRich33]

Looks great, John. Very Orillia.

[@shipmate3577]

Really nice work.

[@Lickety-Split]

Awesome craftsmanship! Thanks for sharing. Btw was there corndogs to go with the bottle of mustard?

[@VJG213]

Seriously...you are awesome!

[@sebcollexts6889]

Fantastic job!

[@Max-hw6lv]

Love all the clever ideas in this, I'm definitely going to be borrowing your tips. How's it all holding up? I see people saying pine won't last for exterior use (use cedar or PVC instead), and I see it recommended to paint the cut ends before assembly. I'm wondering how important either of those are.

[@LukeHague]

Very nice work! I like it a lot.

[@katherinecarroll3706]

That looks awesome!!

[@OldIronShops]

very nice I lived in a home that had columns like this

[@adamcochran7950]

This is beautiful. I'd love to do this, thank you so much for the inspiration!

[@barefootjer]

I generally work with stain grade material. i really like your approach on those columns! you deserve another nail gun. Nobody hits finish work with a hammer any more! old school teaching the youngsters. how many jobs would a guy need to have to learn like youtubers! thanks fellow carpenter.

[@jean-marclabonte2844]

Excellent Work. The outside of the house is looking very nice. Have you thought about what type of railing you are going to install? Thanks for posting this build. Looking forward to the next videos.

[@attpureownpk]

i really like how those columns turned out! i also really really like the reinforcement that was done. a lot of the rotted material i see just falls off and has no backing to it unlike these fine pieces of work. thanks for some tips to a novice!

[@Hasy84]

Very neat and tidy ..
