For this woodworking project, Jesse AKA “The Samurai Carpenter,” challenged me to make his through tenon step stool... as many of you know, this is not a typical joinery project for me, so it actually was a challenge to build. The wood that I used for this step stool was rough-cut hard maple, and spalting that I got from a sawmill. It was a very stringy wood, that didn’t cut or chisel very easily, and you’ll notice that I try to cut the joinery for this project a few different ways. It turns out that the drilled hole was the way to go! I didn’t follow the plans exactly, as I prefer a more primitive look. I hope that you enjoy this joinery challenge from The Samurai Carpenter.

I watched Making Fun on Netflix. Such an awesome show.
I like the CA glue and sawdust trick. Dully noted.
Sempre tu Gimmy sei un grande uomo mi mancavano i tuoi video 👍⚡️⭐️❤️🔥

Jimmy “The Band Saw Whisperer" DiResta! I love how you showed two ways of making those holes. You got a dril? Perfect! No drill? Use a Chisel!

Paul Sellers has a couple really good videos on cutting a mortise with a chisel like that. I’ve done it a bunch of times just because I can now.

You know, I was thinking the same thing through the video. He shows different methods. He just makes everything look so darn easy!
That was a fun Project - Loved the way you went about it! :)

Thank you brother
Sand the joints, leave the dust in the gaps then varnish over it. Great vid.
Samurai Carpenter: Jimmy you have been challenged! Jimmy: not so much......

Jimmy - 14 minutes later, done!
quick and dirty with the rough-cut-look, i love it! thanks Jimmy
Jimmy on his bandsaw is just magical.
At 1:55 genius idea using the cut off from the opposite side to mirror it! :)

I was wondering how he was going to do it...simplest way is the best!
You made that look so easy. It's great! Every short person (me) needs a great looking, sturdy, lasts-forever stool! It's beautiful!
"Samurai Jimmy" what a great looking piece! The rough sawn lumber and spalting look so good. I'd say you easily met the challenge! Jimmy rises again!
I love the different takes on each others projects. There is a big difference between Diresta and Samarai style... diresta has the "get things done" mentality, Samarai has the "let it happen naturally" mentality. I love it!

THEY ARE BEST OF THE BEST MAKERS.
Jimmy’s shop is so much like my dad’s shop growing up. You used a lot of metal tools when doing woodwork. Oh and he loved his 40s model Delta bandsaws. I love Jimmy’s take on the stool. It is very Diresta 👍
👍👍👍
I appreciate your sense of symmetry in wood scraps.
Now me? I woulda painted that step red, just for the laughs. "Its my red headed step stool, never knew my real stool" and to me? thats funny cause I AM a red headed step child.
Great build Jimmy. I love how you have the same harbor freight pull saw I have. If it works, who cares where it's from!
oh Jimmy, you and your bandsaw. Every time I'm left crying for more
Beautiful stool
Nice Job Brother!
Love the old style videos!
Thank you!
The time lapse parts make Jimmy look like a human sawzall! 🪚🏁
One of my favorite builds!
I sure like your style!
Well done. 😁
Watching you work never gets old.
I watch you both and love this challenge between you. I enjoy watching masters of their craft design and build unique pieces.
Nailed it!
Fabulous how 19th century tech makes something that is useful, aesthetically pleasing & durable. Sure 21st century stuff is low cost, but not so durable, and bereft of soul & beauty. Thank you for sharing!
There's just something very 'DiResta' about the sound of the random orbit sander. Makes me smile :)
This was fun
When i look at the stuff that was made 200 years ago with just a chisel and a cross cut saw and some planes it blows my mind.
The pleasure is in the journey!
Thanks for sharing those tips and the make!
Diresta yessss💪💪
Again Jimmy shows more than one way to get results. Thanks for the inspiration and tips. Stay safe my friend.
You definitely put your stamp on this design. 😁 Love the rustic look of it. Thanks for sharing!
Cool. Has the DiResta trademark on the stool. Way to go!!
Jimmy' version of Cross Fit. Make those Tri's burn!!
Love that.
Great job! Thumbs up and thanks for posting.
Nice job Jimmy. I like how you kept the milling saw marks so you can see how it was originally cut. I got some old window headers (2x12 lumber) from a job and I’ve been saving it to make a bench with the same joinery. This video came at a great time. Thanks DiResta and Samurai
Very nice. Thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍
This man intelligent and professional and the first person make me learn handmade and I love ❤️ work because his video this man number one
What a great build. I do like how you and the Samurai did different pressure fit pins on the center brace. My dads am old school wood worker and I’m trying to get him hip to KZread. Amd when I show him your vids amd other wood working videos he’s just blowin away on how far things have developed and all the new school technology. And I appreciate how much you cover both ends of the spectrum on all your build. Much love Jimmy!!🤜🏻⚡️🤛🏻
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
I love the process .... I use chisel -> it's boring -> I Drill ^^
Good job Jimmy Diresta well done
"pro"tip: if you have two pieces where you have to cut a half circle, like the legs here, you can put them one against the other and use a hole saw to cut the hole fast and clean. I usually staple them to an MDF piece i have for that kind of stuff.
Beautiful, Jimmy! Great work! 😃 What a beautiful wood, hum? Fantastic! Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Well done, Jimmy. A nice variation on the design Samurai did. More of a Diresta rustic look. Outstanding. I'm going to take up the challenge as well. Got nothing to do today or tomorrow. Cheers!!!
3 words; Beau ti ful.
Love it. Cheers Jimmy (& Jesse). Have a great weekend ;)
Nice job boss.
Love that rough sawn look
Excellent. Love these challenges.
The Boss.👍🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I made one of these in HS shop class back in the early 80s and have used it as a step into my bed ever since. I also use it while tying my boots every morning
That disc sander is amazing. You have all the fun toys👍

Beautiful job Jimmy 😜😎
A great video and a great bundle deal on the knife and razor blade! Can’t wait for the live chat!
I enjoyed the way you mixed hand tools and power tools in this one, Jimmy. The spalting on that wood is really interesting. Nice work.
Absolutely love it!!
The Diresta way of woodworking with metal powertools. Love this guy.
“Now you wanna run around talkin’ bout shoulder planes like I ain’t got none, what, you think I sold’em all, cause I stay well off”
Zabsolutely beautiful, Jimmy. 👍

Trens de Pesca - Brasil - 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I was yelling at the TV "Auger a big hole first, then chisel". 😁
LOL, Jimmy does one leg hole with a chisel and you can tell he was like "Nope, not doing that again... where's the Forstner bit..."
Hey Jimmy, I'm still here, always!! Another great job Man! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
I like your version of the stool. Nice work
DiResta is the man.
I want this stool. Great job
Smashed it like a boss👌🏴
