This is the best video of yours I have watched since I came across your channel. No one seems to be showing how to make beautiful things. Just general joinery skills. That is wonderful but this was enjoyable because it was less about just using old tools and more about style and technique.

Hello Graham, so wonderfull to see old traditional woodworking techniques in this day of power tools, jigs and idiots. Retired cabinet maker now, in Canada just a glorified production worker dealing with morons in the shop. None could understand my 60 plus handplanes, handsaws, and real cabinet chisels, not to mention my books from Tage Frid, Krenov, Ian Kirby and the lust goes on. You are welcomed sight to true cabinet making and traditional tools! Thankyou again Graham. Bryan from Canada.

The width is oten stamped on the heel of the plane in inches, but I generally choose the nearest to whatever size rebate I need. Didn't bother to look this time.Sorry.
Is this an optical illusion that I am missing? An "open book" would have a groove down the center where the pages attach and both sides would have a sort of aerofoil shape with the thick part in towards the center.

Of course you're right, but think of the book upside down. In any event this was the way the design was originated in the thirteenth century.

That really makes me want to get a set of hollows and rounds. I suppose I better get hacksawing and filing on that flatbar of spring steel I bought to make a dowel plate.

Indeed!
Does what you did with the hollow apply to making astragals? I have trouble making astragals and other similar profiles that are large portions of a circle. I approached the astragal by starting with a square or rectangular bump roughed in with a plow, then taking off the corners with a rabbet, and finally trying to smooth it all out with a hollow. I struggle with flat spots and shape. Seeing what you did here, would it be better to just start with the square bump, lay the hollow on its side, and work up and around like you did? Is that how you would approach an astragal (assuming you don't have an astragal plane)? Thank you for the excellent video.

Hi Graham! Thank you so much for the lesson! Is there a way to invert the parchment fold so the sharp spine in the middle is a fine groove? Is there a nane for a plane that does V-grooves like that, or would you need to use a V-tool/chip carving first, then round over as in this video?
@gjbmunc
Жыл бұрын
There's no reason why the sharp ridge could not be reversed and the two center 'pages' were rounds instead of hollows. It's just the way it was done originally. And yes, it's perfectly possible to plane an inverted spine -a snipesbill plane would do this.

@@gjbmunc This may be more about lighting than how close the camera is. The excellent lighting that is illuminating you and the bench is washing out the profile that is being worked. It might be a matter of adding some side lighting at the bench to cast some shadows? This is just a guess as I'm not much of a photographer. Thank you for the excellent video! All the key things are here. I believe I can go make one of these.
