Making louvered shutters on the pantorouter

[@cavediverjc]

Every once in a while, a bona fide genius comes along and sets a whole new standard for an industry. You sir, are that man.

[@BeyondHomeCooking]

Mattias, one of the things I appreciate about your videos is having the right amount of safety for your projects. You are not doing safety things for no apparent reason, but are protecting yourself from foreseeable threats. Thanks for sharing.

[@matthiaswandel]

Yes, plans available. Just google "pantorouter plans"

[@Rickmakes]

I saw the pictures you posted on your site. The quality looks second to none. Great work!

[@matthiaswandel]

Totally see where you are coming from. In Germany, people just have smooth melamine on their kitchen doors. Mine are raised panel, and I curse even that detail every time I spill something off the counter!

[@elkrivermr]

Once again awesome project!! I like the shed and all the tours videos you did but is awesome to see you back in the shop again.

[@velcroman11]

Experience is the greatest teacher. Book learning only improves reading skills.

[@BradWarren]

Even the filming and editing is superb.. Amazing

[@matthiaswandel]

That's right. Already have cabinets. Actually, I'm not a big fan of louvered shutters like this, but it's a cool application of the pantorouter.

[@victorhernanable]

Mattias you are the best of the word. Your works are incredible. I am surprised.

[@thebrisbanebennetts]

Mate, Im a sheet metal worker and stumbled onto your video. Wow. Impressive Thats some pretty trick stuff going on there. Thanks for sharing Tim.

[@matthiaswandel]

I always misplace the router collet wrench. Adjustable wrenches come in handy that way.

[@matthiaswandel]

Just the camera's built in mike. No microphone jack on my little Nikon S8200 point and shoot. That's what I shoot most of my videos with.

[@geneseebeer8501]

I studied a great deal of geometry, and it definitely helped me understand woodworking.

[@BandBaseCamp]

Matthias, When you going to get your own TV show? You are 1000% better then anything I ever saw Bob V. or Norm even TALK about. I'd sure be a "fanatic" Fan. You"re the best, Bro.

[@namespacetoosmall]

What do you think this is? :)

[@Stevenpwalsh]

I get the impression Matthias doesn't play well with others. KZbin is the perfect fit for him.

[@zaagnutjejn8920]

Yes, i Am agree!

[@matthiaswandel]

People have added tilting tables to it. Personally, I need that so rarely, that I figure I can just make a wedge and clamp it on the table for when I need it. and if the table is non-adjustable, it can't be misadjusted the rest of the time. Think of tilting your table saw by half a degree, and only noticing it isn't square after cutting up a lot of wood.

[@PeteyPeteee]

These videos are great - i honestly look forward to each episode. Great style of filming, nice narration and plenty on detail. Awesome. :-)

[@coreytk]

Cool project and video! Nice attention to detail, and thanks for remind about the importance of safety (when rounding the edges of the slats)

[@petejh14]

Dude you are too cool,man.I mean everytime I see you and your video's. You always have new and cool stuff.

[@NicholasAarons]

Amazingly Clever...! Very Well Done. Keep up the great work. Nick.

[@hervevandevoorde8457]

Très beau travail !Très agréable a regarder...belle vidéo. Nice ,very nice job. Thanks. Congratulations from France

[@scott98390]

Matthias, you amaze me every time.

[@unolisto]

I really like your videos. Such carefull filming and editing. You are one of the most enjoyable KZbinrs out there. It really is fun to watch your videos (and not to have to do all the work ;-) )

[@moviedrome7239]

You are really somthing, it is a pleasure watching you

[@EeekiE]

Great guy. Never had an interest in woodworking till now.

[@fingers2406]

Dream workshop I seriously need to build my workshop and use some of your fantastic ideas

[@JustMe111094]

I really enjoy your videos! I feel so relaxed after watching them, they're so interesting and entertaining : )

[@charlesteddy7578]

Is the pantorouter totally your idea/invention? if yes your a genius for thinking and making of it works..Your the Man!

[@AntonioGiugliano80]

Fantastico sei bravissimo e molto ingegnoso, mi piace il tuo modo di adeguarti a tutte le esigenze e problematiche che trovi, ciao Antonio da Napoli Italia!!

[@bradflorida9961]

making beautiful things out of beautiful things! nice stuff! Matthias, like your shop projects. your the man! thanks

[@matthiaswandel]

Not you. I accidentally had the camera set to 640x480 for part of it, and didn't want to go back and reshoot those segments.

[@Riodashio]

Thank you, sir, for making my night for the entire next week! That's hilarious.

[@matthiaswandel]

Nope. Though the pantorouter could be used for that as well - for making the dowel ends on the slats. And it could also be used for making a series of holes with a plunge bit.

[@v.9809]

Столяр с абсолютно математическими и геометрическими гениальными мозгами и совершенно прямыми руками!!! Браво, мастер!!!

[@ilskr12]

Hello I think you just huge. I am a registered subscriber of your movies and I always admire your work better. I Ooms deal more wood engraving Than carpentry. But even carpentry close to my heart. The pantograph I would first thousand vessels. Thanks for all your movies Kramer Israe

[@matthiaswandel]

That's my homemade bandsaw. I have several videos about it.

[@rollymore1163]

i always watch your videos, you amazed me about all ideas and techniqes of yours.

[@Pegazueira]

You are very very smart. It's incredible everything you can do.

[@kikenu2]

You r one smart cookie making all that stuff. Amazing

[@ilskr12]

שלום אני חושב שאתה פשוט ענק. אני רשום מנוי לסרטים שלך ואני תמיד מתפעל לטובה מהעבודות שלך . אני אומם מתעסק יותר בחריטה בעץ מאשר נגרות. אבל גם נגרות קרוב ללבי. את פנטוגרף הייתי עושה ראשון כלי מאלף. בתודה על כול הסרטים שלך קרמר ישראל

[@Bergerboy1000]

You do the coolest things with just a few pieces of wood

[@NSResponder]

If you made one more of the stiles and ripped it in half, you'd have a jig that would hold the slats in exactly the right alignment to insert them into the stiles. -jcr

[@MrLoscarr]

muy cierto!..si nos interesa buscaremos la forma de entender...es suficiente el trabajo que haces y te dignas en colgarlo en la web, es tiempo.GRACIAS! ,son muy magnificos e ingeniosos todos los proyectos y compartir lo es aun mas. Un saludo y abrazo desde Peru,Gracias nuevamente amigo.

[@oilime55]

Perfectos videos, mi inglés es malísimo, pero simplemente con ver el video se entiende claramente, Thanks for your videos, saludos desde Tezonapa, Veracruz México

[@aleko842]

This guy is the REAL wood whisperer!!!

[@matthiaswandel]

Just the plans

[@portpipe99]

as the old saying goes, "practice makes perfect". I left school with no qualifications and got a coopers (oak barrel maker) apprenticeship, 25 years later I am teaching apprentices and make furniture for myself and family. learn by doing, most def.

[@speedbump0619]

Here in North Carolina we call them hurricane shutters because you close them to protect your windows from flying debris during a hurricane. The louvers provide reasonable protection to your windows, are lighter weight, are easier to repair (assuming they're built with that in mind), and look decent (important since they are usually permanently mounted on hinges beside the window).

[@matthiaswandel]

That would be for shutters with tilting slats, which these ones don't.

[@matthiaswandel]

No need for one, but Steve Ramsay (youtube user stevinmarin) has done a video on that earlier this summer. Go check that out.

[@Navitas2003]

This is absolutely AWESOME! I so got to build me some tools like that! Thanks for the inspiration!!!

[@MyFirstReurveBow]

I saw a few movies and I really enjoyed have much to learn I work with wood as a hobby myself and hope to have time to build some devices you build Thank you for sharing this interesting informayion

[@startracker4s]

Calming video Excellent accurate work

[@johnchris1061]

increíble todo lo que se puede hacer con un poco de perseverancia tus videos los aplicare para también ayudarme gracias a tu ingenio yo seguiré de cerca todos tus vídeos gracias amigo

[@anaikahas]

I've never made anything from wood, but I watch these vids anyway :)

[@Khether0001]

I love the precision in your videos ! =D

[@akhilaanbazhagan388]

Hai am your fan watching your videos with all my interest...

[@XMANGAMES]

I love all of your work..good job man.

[@Andersoncust]

This is awesome! I just built the quick set tenon jig, which is awesome! I wonder if you were to create another rail, and band saw off the top, if you could use it for aligning the slats into the other rail? This would look like a skewed comb, or finger board.

[@angel1138thx]

I like your videos, thank you very much for sharing knowledge greetings from Spain.

[@matthiaswandel]

Let air through, but mostly just decorative.

[@NOLAMarathon2010]

Great job, Matthias.

[@harumatsu]

Very nice, this is pure art!

[@aidanbyrnes8066]

What a craftsman. Top job.

[@liamg1995]

really cool! I think I'll have to build myself a pantarouter soon... thanks alot liam

[@trongod2000]

Matthias, I'm a big fan. You do a great job of making videos as well as making things. I understand there are several lessons to learn in the building of the shutter you did. I am a little curious however why you chose to make fixed slats rather than ones with posts into the styles so that the louvres could be opened and closed. You could still use the router and the drafting software but end up with a better product and it should actually be easier to route and put together. Regards, Ray

[@Sprank900]

I enjoyed the zoom at the end of this video, that's the first one I've noticed you to use. Your video production skills are quite admirable for KZbin DIYmedia by the way, probably the best I've seen actually. The only facet that needs any improvement is your dialogue recording at those times when you've stepped away from the camera. It has gotten better, I'll give you that. What microphone are you using, sounds like your depending on your camera mounted mic most times Sound guy Subscriber

[@GustiDoru]

you are the best on woodworking jig..

[@بوحهبوحه-ض2ج]

صرحتا ابداع وتألق وفن wonder and great

[@helicopterjohns]

Nice video. Many thanks for sharing. Keep up the GREAT work!

[@florh]

@Matthias Wandel may I make a suggestion? specifically for that project you just did, why not, on one side, make the slots deeper, so you can turn it over, and just put every single one in, so you don't have to work so tricky? they're glued to finalize the project anyway, and nobody can see the empty space left behind.

[@matthiaswandel]

this was many years ago. Also, I don't want the slats to be that loose, and I certainly don't want to cut the slots deeper than absolutely necessary.

[@cattleNhay]

How would you sand in between the shutters to repaint after 10 years?

[@FrankaDith]

Geezus man your a flippin genius .

[@alejandrojulioriveravalenz621]

Hola Matthias wandel me ha gustado mucho tus videos es un buen trabajo y quisiera saber el costo de la maquina pantorouter saludos desde lima peru espero tu respuesta

[@raymondpontremoli2489]

I really like that pantorouter. Are you willing to share the plans to build it if you have them..???

[@jublangav]

felicitaciones matthias !!! que maquinas tan utiles las que ud hace, me gustaria saber como se llama el programa con que diseña o despieza la maderaq y, como se puede acceder a el "gracias"

[@dpeagles]

You are a very clever fellow. Makes my head hurt.

[@pragmaticmansboots]

To aid slipping the final blinds into the opposing piece, I was thinking you could place a measured spacer on the table raising them to the right height. Another great video

[@trinicaleb]

I love how you work bro...

[@tomknud]

Pretty cool. A lot of work!

[@Mr308Gap]

Technically difficult but appears hand made. awesome. I love a challenge.

[@kookyflukes9749]

Excellent as usual. Are they gonna go into the window in the last scene above your head? They look like they fit perfectly!

[@shilicaso]

Exelente trabajo amigo, mucha tecnica e ingenio! FELICITACIONES

[@Christombcharcot]

I can see by the window that looks like you have accoustic treatment on this room, am I right ? The walls are pretty thick.

[@wvb93]

what is the function of a shutter like that? my only guesses are that they could let air through into your house for a gentle breeze, gentle compared to having the window open, or that, angled correctly, they could let in sun light for more indoor light. or do they just look good?

[@jeetfeet]

Matthias - have you ever considered making a CNC version of the pantorouter?

[@cutsarug]

Pretty amazing innovation!!!

[@RDJim]

What challenge would there be if you had a CNC machine?

[@Paddington60]

How to make jalousie. Thank you for posting, very neat.

[@matthiaswandel]

Somebody who knows Spanish, is an expert in woodworking, and has time to kill would have to be the one to do that.

[@393strokedcoupe]

You are a genius my man

[@mody6762]

Thanks so much and good workMahmoud ali from egypt

[@matthiaswandel]

Wrong. Just a funny looking ceiling. Actually, I'd want a bit more echo because the camera mike is not that sensitive :)

[@confiscator]

Is is my gear, or is the picture a bit blown out until 9:40? Just a little hard to see details against that white table at times.

[@adshwartz]

Great video! Can you do one on moveable shutters? I tried to build it and it was pretty hard with the tools I had...

[@moshtaq44]

Dear Sir I am very impressed with this group of sections and I hope that will help me in the completion of these works. And I will be very grateful that you sent me, I can Create schemes which own my tools. I hope that allows me with the aid of your information. Thank you sir

[@dlwatib]

[@Stephen1455]

Brilliant work! You are a true craftsman, where did you get your training?

[@stetsonator]

Is that a old Shop Smith I see in the video?

[@stevew3978]

That pantorouter is every bit as useful as a router table. Every serious woodworker should have a pantorouter.

[@ferznator]

awesome~! can't wait to make my own pantorouter :D
