Bench top Edge Jointing Tip For Easy Glue Joints.

[@christophermcclellan8730]

I know you make money off your long form videos and I respect that, but I really do get excited when one of these drops on KZbin.

[@ikust007]

Agree !

[@zhookeeper]

This is the absolutely BEST tutorials on you tube. The delivery is succinct, practical and no BS. I love it. I get hints and tips every time time I watch one. Thank you!

[@Tome4kkkk]

Even though I know all of this I'm still watching hypnotized. You are a natural-born teacher. So, I'm watching... watching... and bam! I learned something new still!

[@ikust007]

A nice successor/follower to Paul Sellers. Bravo !

[@BrownianMotionPicture]

Another excellent video. The archive you are building of all this technique and methodology is a goldmine now and for future generations.

[@sigogglin]

So glad I saw the Rex K video that mentions this channel.

[@JonElofson]

Finished the last series a while ago and have been going through "the English Woodworker" withdrawal. This helps. Great tip that I will be sure to use all the time.

[@darrylportelli]

One of the best woodworking channels on KZbin!!! Thanks Richard !!

[@melainekerfaou8418]

Thanks a lot, this is very useful. I have a small issue with the idea of flipping the second board for compensating square errors: in order to be sure that the angles do add up to 180 degrees, you need the boards to be milled to thickness (at least one of them). If both faces are not parallel on the board you flip, then the edge will not be square to the face that matters (i.e. the top face for the flipped board). When I do a project with hand tools, I like to avoid having to go through the thickness planer and only flatten one face on my boards. I flatten the back side only after the glue-up. But I can still use your advice for the first step, i.e. removing twist in both edges. Then I clamp both boards together in the face vise, with the face sides inside, and I can finalize the planing of both edges at once, knowing there's no twist.

fantastic video! glad you turned the comments on, hopefully the youtube algo boosts your channel, you deserve a load more subscribers and views!

[@marchebert9813]

Is there anything more beautiful than the sound of the plane taking a shaving?

[@charleskyler1928]

I miss old lumpy with the branch handle. Good info as always.

[@rjamsbury1]

This short video is an absolute treasure trove! Bravo maestro!

[@mikegleaden5096]

Thanks for this simple technique. Used this to edge joint oak boards for a table top and it worked far better than any method I'd tried before.

[@petertiffney4413]

Richard am a 60 year old bench joiner and so happy to see you share your knowledge with others ps I love my e c e planes ,

[@ilirgorani4261]

Superb presentation Richard. Looking forward to the next series. Cheers.

[@Erik_The_Viking]

I've had trouble with edge joints and I tried this trick. Worked like a champ! Thanks!

[@charlier7711]

Thank you! This was an excellent explanation and demonstration on edge jointing.

[@LiefZimmerman]

“Don’t do this…” - 😂 Love your videos, love your approach, love your reasoning behind your approach. I learn something new each time I watch - including what NOT to do! Cheers.

[@AaronSprague1]

Top notch, I never thought of using my bench like that.

[@bill4123]

I'm shocked that this is the first time I've seen this method. It's fabulous!

[@g5flyr169]

EXACTLY! It’s so intuitive. How is it I didn’t think of it on my own.

[@Swarm509]

Love this idea of using your bench as shooting board. Building a very late one for myself now so I think I will need to give this a go. I find getting 90 degree narrow edges to still be a problem for me, I tend to end up chasing the angle going too far, or spend too long with too minor of a cut not getting back square, or putting a twist in the top.... only to end up making one end low and the entire edge not flat along the length. This may help me with that.

[@scannon90]

That was very helpful. Edge jointing can be extremely fiddly.

[@toml6249]

Would be overjoyed to apprentice with you! Your approach to explaining things and the workings is brilliant and faff-less. Thanks for another free video!

[@ianpearse4480]

I had not thought through the angled planning, very clever. Cheers.

[@tiktokloe]

I am subscribing for that accent 😂👍🏻

[@dilex2870]

Thank you, I Like you teaching🎉

[@carlgrubbs1026]

I tried it. Works like a charm! Thanks man!!

[@makermark67]

Great description, great example, great advice. Thanks, Richard

[@altheteacher]

Thanks for this Richard. As a guitar maker (luthier to the posh knobs) I frequently join guitar tops and this a wonderful alternative to using a conventional shooting board and will prove really useful when dealing with stupid shaped pieces.. nice one.

[@123reivax123]

Well, a fabulously smart tutorial. This technique will be with me for the rest of my days. Thank you for your generosity of spirit Richard.

[@BobMuir100]

Such great stuff! Bob England

[@joer5627]

Now, how did you think of this? I’m needing to start the plans I’ve recently purchased. I will admit once in a while I think “what did he just say?” After playing a few times I get it. A good idea young man!

[@BostLabs]

Amazing! I never considered handling it like that. Thank you.

[@quietwoodworking]

Sir Richard, you are a master woodworker!

[@lerayhillmon9485]

Keep them coming

[@aarondaniels629]

Loved this video!

[@AirwolfCrazy]

Nice variation on edging.

[@davidballnh]

Brilliant; thank you--keeps the plane from tilting (versus when the board is in the vise).

[@davidballnh]

how tall do you recommend the winding sticks (or whatever one places under the board) be? 1/3 the plane blade's width?

[@coljter15]

That was a really great video, thank you!

[@tonyalways7174]

Really impressive as ever.

[@paullampru3591]

Given a flat-square board, would dowels provide strength and alignment?

[@vance7274]

Excellent!!!

[@RobertoFischer]

A similar technique is used in planing the edge of the two sides of a guitar top for gluing.

[@michaellee8198]

Good advice; nice style!

[@dpmeyer4867]

Thanks

[@torque9889]

You really need to come back to youtube. If you’d have posted regularly a few years ago you’d have been huge by now. I know you went a different path but KZbin misses you!

[@dannyhale7645]

That's brilliant.

[@maciejtrybilo]

I'm just here to say that I've bought several of Richard's video series and they all were totally worth it. I wish ad revenue would be enough to support such channels, but it just isn't.

[@1pcfred]

Good stuff!

[@Tome4kkkk]

For anyone looking for the link to the free video on jointing (from the trestle table project): Log in and go to ‘My Videos Page’.

[@dbnoho]

Do absolutely zero of this. Eyeball it. Spread glue everywhere. Don’t use clamps. Set them upright and let gravity push one on to the other. Whatever comes out, call it modern art, belittle people for not understanding your process. Price it at $5,000. Move on to the next project.

[@garyoshea2171]

Buy a Maffel track saw they’re unbelievably accurate.
