@BRADSHAW JOINERY haha!

[@billgeorge7804]

It really saddens me that more people watch twerps who call themselves influencers on KZbin rather than talented, efficient people who actually make something as our young friend here does. My late Dad would have enjoyed watching the next generation of expert craftsmen/women as he was a Carpenter-Joiner for fifty years who taught many apprentices. This is excellent content young sir, keep these videos coming please!

[@BradshawJoinery]

Hi Bill, Thankyou for that, its great to read. Yes its sad to see standard drop and quantity rule over quality, there are a few people out there doing things properly still so hopefully the skills wont be lost for a few more generations.

[@whoisathome]

I couldn't agree more, Bill. It was a joy to see a young man being able to use his equipment so well, be it machinery or hand tools. Too many KZbinrs set out to show others how to make stuff, and they lack the basic understanding on how to joint a board straight on the side and the edge. Not so here; it took only a few seconds to realise that this guy knows what he is doing and it was a delight to watch the rest of the video. Good work! Greetings from Sweden. / Peter

[@topquark6919]

How wonderful to have the skill, talent and knowledge to make such a beautiful door. Truly beautiful job.

[@BradshawJoinery]

THankyou for that, Much appreciated!

[@johnpeplow3985]

From the time you struggled in with that slab of Oak I couldn’t take my eyes off the video. The joints,the work with the chisels, the workmanship and that grain in the finish oh my word.

[@BradshawJoinery]

Awesome! I remember carrying that in funnily enough haha Cheers again John!

[@balke7935]

This is the most incredible door I’ve ever seen! What a beautiful bit of wood, looked almost quilted on that one piece ❤️

You made a door that beautiful for a cupboard......? Deserves to be entrance door at least!!!! Nice work👍

[@BradshawJoinery]

Haha, the customer asked for somethign special. he was very pleased!

[@drmkiwi]

Not sure I've thought about it before, but the Dutch are supposedly careful with their money (i.e. tight) hence the term to make better use of wood (that previously) may have been scrapped. The Dutch probably use old socks for applying stain too! Thanks for the vid. Cheers, David

[@BradshawJoinery]

Maybe i am Dutch and i just didn't know it ! haha Thanks

[@arthursmith5515]

Beutiful door. You really do have to work fast forward when assembling things like that as the glue isn’t going to wait.

[@BradshawJoinery]

Cheers Arthur, yes its usually when you find something isnt right and needs altering haha!

[@arthursmith5515]

@@BradshawJoinery like after its in the clamps, after much hurry to get it all together, you notice the part that’s in upside down or backwards and panic sets in about how can it be fixed and how fast and least distructive it can be done. Even after you did a “dry” run rehearsal. Custom woodworking so much fun.

[@kamlesh8818]

Clip is so fast ! 👍

[@BradshawJoinery]

Its a much quicker easier to watch run of the 3 longer clips! Will do it in the future i think too

[@redbutler751]

Im gonna look now the long version. I want to try to do it myself. Thanks, you helped me alot. How long (days, weeks?) did you need to make the door?

[@BradshawJoinery]

i cant remeber exatly, i think the whole thing took over a week!

[@vardie]

Can you do this or something just as detailed with just hand tools or less power tools? Agree with the others this door looks fantastic.

[@BradshawJoinery]

Absolutley Andrew. Check out Richard Arnold on FB he is always showcasing Hand tools and methods. Especially planes

Beautiful door. BUT..... Why the magnets? As opposed to a regular door handle?

[@BradshawJoinery]

ice closing action and easy opening, gives more of a cupboard feel than a houshold door

[@oblux]

What's the magic juice? Looks like a nice easy finish.

[@BradshawJoinery]

I used a chestnut spirit stain then chestnut hardwax oil

[@oblux]

@@BradshawJoinery Nice one. Will have a look into the spirit stain - I've always had good experiences with the chestnut products. Didn't realise they did a hard wax oil - I've been using treatex for a while and would say it's miles better than osmo - would be interested to try the chestnut hard wax oil to see how it compares.

[@fazer12779]

Nice job. What stain & lacquer did you use?

[@BradshawJoinery]

Cheers! I used chestnut spirit dye and Hardwax oil

[@Harry-dm8or]

Fairly, but equally a very nice and special piece!

[@davidbalmforth699]

Just wondering who could afford a fabulous door like that on a mere wardrobe??

[@BradshawJoinery]

The answer. Alot of people! The money some people have is unbelievable. It's a different world

[@Richard-wk9le]

With your climate in the UK I was wondering about how you gauge your spacing on Floating raised panels? I have the exact opposite problem here in Arizona USA.

[@BradshawJoinery]

Hi Richard, i machined a flay on these so they could float a little easier at the groove, id leave around 2-3mm gap in a 10mm deep groove so the panel has 3mm all around. if the panel is really wide youll need deeper grooves to accomodate more movement. Its a bit of a guess in terms of how dry your timber is compared tot he environment its going in so i now acclimatize my timber before machining in my insulated container

[@garygilbert1526]

I am wondering what type of glue you are using in the video?

[@BradshawJoinery]

I use Polyurethane glue in a cartridge tube,

[@ecocitoyen59]

HELLO i watching you i leave in senegal and i m a french woodworker what is a "magic juice" thank for you re answer

[@BradshawJoinery]

Hi, thankyou, it is "Hardwax oil" made by chestnut products.

[@treygibson9359]

First off: Beautiful work Second: was there a reason you didn't match up some of the boards for the panels (some had medullary rays that would have paired up nicely) Third: do you ever see the magnets fail from the doors being slammed or anything? I think those magnets are pretty brittle and lose some of their magnetic properties if they are damaged.

[@BradshawJoinery]

Thanks Trey! The panels did book match nicely, but when put in the door looked odd as one was heavily quarter sawn and the other crown cut. It lost its symmetry, whereas no it looks better in my opinion. I guess it's subject to opinion! I did have to have a good think why I handnt book matched as you said! The magnets never touch each other as they sit a few mm away from each other! I did do a video of it individually 👍

[@joseantoniolopes5573]

[@BradshawJoinery]

Im sure it was English walnut wood dye

[@alex_lightning4523]

Thank you. Im restoring old french furniture the i fin it on the scrap, and im always curios what other use for stain.

[@rodfair5698]

Where do you get your wood? Is it really English Oak?? I thought all our oak went to build the Royal Navy in Henry VIII’s time?

[@BradshawJoinery]

English Oak i got from Nelson Butler, There are several English timber yards in UK. Commercially English timber is not readily available but more for artisan users.
