🕵️‍♂️ WHO AM I?:
My name is Matt Estlea and I’m a Woodworker from Basingstoke, England. My aim is to make your woodworking less s***.
I come from 5 years of TRAINING at Rycotewood Furniture Centre in Oxford, 5 years of experience WORKING at Axminster Tools and Machinery in Basingstoke, and 3 years TEACHING both day classes and evening classes at Rycotewood Furniture Centre. All while trying to get this KZbin thing off the ground.
By September 2021, I packed it all in to focus on KZbin and my business full-time.
Want to know more about how I crammed all this experience into such a short period of time? See my experience and qualifications here:

Your tutorials are always the easiest to follow. Keeping it simple and to the point. That’s what beginners need actually, because it’s easy to remember and perform.

[@BradleyMakesThings]

Great series, Matt! Your videos have really been helping me learn how to properly use hand tools and I appreciate it!

[@brianreed3837]

Great bit of information Matt, this is something that i have been struggling with just starting out in hand tool woodworking. Just made my first pin style marking gauge and ill have to try these steps out!

[@8tandy]

Again great video, this is really gonna help with my projects. Like always very informative and perfect for people like me who can't afford to buy expensive power tools to get a piece of timber flat and square. Looking forward to the next one.

[@Paul-eb4dc]

Love your videos, always clear and well explained. Great you show it isn't always perfect first time and show how to correct it.

[@janitor6669]

A great tip I learned from Tom Fidgen: after scoring the line with the marking gauge, draw pencil lines from the gauge line to the edge of the board, every inch or so apart. That way, when you're planing to the gauge line, it's extremely easy to see the distance between the surface and the gauge line by looking at the vertical pencil lines. Makes the job so much easier.

[@freedogg7358]

good content matt cant wait to see more projects

[@sumosprojects]

Your Woodworking is art mate, it’s very enjoyable to view & beyond my skill set due to lack of time, carry on 👍👍👍👍

[@polishcarpenter3033]

Great video Matt!

[@timothyball3144]

Great to hear some explaination of what you are doing as you are planning. I bet there are lots more little things going on that you don't even realize, but have become such a part of you that you don't think to mention them. I just wonder if you pulled out the "horses bedroom" line on the fly or if you had that one in the queue, looking for the right place for it.

[@danieltopp7905]

Great video. Thanks from Canada

[@peckelhaze6934]

Good one Matt.

[@chipsterb4946]

I have power tools and I intend to use them. However, I learned vital lessons here, especially from that bewdy piece of walnut. Thanks

[@simonwatson9730]

Excellent tutorial

[@glenis83]

Was on the fence but the "horse's bedroom" pun has earned you a subscription.

[@Cut3Sku11]

Thank you

[@TheEveryMaker]

I laughed too, so don't feel bad. Once again, great video!

[@divermike8943]

Outstanding! So many KZbin videos meander around, the presenter talks too much, doesn't get to the point. NOT HERE. Energetic, efficient, clear and understandable and spot on. Kudos !

[@rodrigogouvea7107]

awesome to see matt quoting crimson guitars!

[@alainkazan]

Always loved wood, now im loving woodwork and you contribute to that :) keep it up and waiting for more videos . Question: are you going to start selling your wood product on your website ? how can we support you ?

[@rick91443]

Great video...thanks...rr

[@l1verm0m]

Another good job Matt - you make it look easier than I know it is...

[@MattEstlea]

Ah Mike, you see that's the power of video editing. It isn't bloody easy!

[@l1verm0m]

Matt Estlea - Furniture ... yes I know mate :-))

[@danny26barrow]

Hay mate, great video by the way, also I might have a spare wooden mark gauge if u want it mate that is buddy

[@70mujtaba]

I have been struggling with this issue for a while no one has explained it better

[@TheCompleteGuitarist]

I've seen a (well respected) violin luthier split a block of wood, square the sides and with nothing more than gravity to hold them together, glued them up to make the top of a violin.

[@rollingstone3017]

“Got it a few years ago because it looked pretty “ 😂 Yep. Done that many times!

[@TimothyWitt]

Yup, could have used this video on my first attempt.

[@TheUnijacker]

Can we get your thoughts on using a shooting board at some point of this process? Definitely not at the beginning, but it feels like it could be incorporated at some point to help...

[@anthonymitchell3916]

Enjoying the video, thanks. Where do you recommend buying hardwood from in England, N.E. if that matters?

[@terminusest1988]

Definitely adding a camber to my jack plane. Is there any benefit to putting a camber on block planes?

[@SeanEvelegh]

Hi Matt, nice video! got a question... does David Barron still sell his squares, because I can't find them anymore?

[@amiddled]

I wondered that a while ago. His site doesn't list them so I guess not. Shame as there is nothing else like it out there...

[@MattEstlea]

Yea it doesn't look like it unfortunately! I'm sure I saw him selling some at a show a few months ago but it may have been leftover stock. Shame because they're bloody nice tools!

[@clydeulmer4484]

Look at the Katz-Moses magnetic dovetail jig. Really nice design. Jonathan has a KZbin channel -- Katz-Moses Woodworking Shop -- and a website -- www.katzmoseswoodworking.com/new-products. Clyde

[@chornykot03]

i actually contacted him and he does not sell them anymore

[@MrPaulRobbins99]

Hi Matt, interesting and informative watch as ever. Question re veritas wonder dog..how high does the threaded end sit above work bench and does it foul the plane if planing stock less than inch think? Cheers Paul

[@robertsparkman8516]

You got a little unstable there twords the end, otherwise great video thanks

[@luckyhiker3434]

Yea Paul. He easily could be either of our grandsons but he does have skills.

[@veronhrvojic9177]

Stable 😂 got you there

[@riccardoghianda6219]

The joke of the stable made the day

[@chuckblaine8113]

Gave it a thumbs up in spite of the terrible pun at the end

[@beepIL]

6:32 ohhh look at that pinky finger splinter waiting to happen, just a little push

[@XXXCitizenX]

Am I the only one thinking you are a young Paul Sellers?

[@androidgameplays4every13]

He is very different from Paul, Paul is wise and humble, Matt is young, proud and cocky (in the good meaning of the word). They are like night and day, I respect them both! it's so nice they're so different.

[@XXXCitizenX]

AndroidGameplays4Every1 thats true, but do you think PS was like that in his 30ies?

[@NivBetsalel]

Did I mention I love you?

[@amea.kem.]

Jon Snow

[@chavirawiser5010]

I bought Woodglut once and now I have lifetime access to thousands of woodworking projects.

[@lukebesse1353]

A horse's bedroom... *sigh*

[@richardmasters3571]

Shouldn't 'horse' be spelt with a 'W'?
