2:30 End grain gluing hack -- spread a thin layer of glue on all the end grain surfaces and let it dry completely, then proceed with the glue-up. The first application of glue seals the end grains and the second sticks everything together. That said I really like the look of the spline joints 👍

I was just going to share this same tip! Definitely makes for a much stronger end-end glue joint.

Andrew-I just finished watching 7 other videos on building a hexagon shelf. Your process was similar to the others; however, your use of using a biscuit joiner to strengthen the joint was unique and an "out of the box" thinking. Great job!!

Super cool design. I didn't realize how much effort goes into a honeycomb shelve, a lot... Good job!

Man I was struggling to figure out how to clamp a hexagon then I come across your video! The tape + strap is exactly what i needed to see, thanks! Great video btw, you deserve a lot more subs then what you have

Great video! Love your furry helper.

Thanks for the video. They turned out great. Be careful with the freehand table saw work. A sled or even using a board as a runner below the splines and between the work and the fence would stabilize the project helping to ensure that you can keep woodworking!

Looks great...... Jahman 👊😎

Hi there, first thank u i loved Ur work, I’ve been trying and trying and I don’t get the perfect joint, why my angles are not perfect? Even though i find the way to put them together with gaps in the angles, then when i try to put them together on the wall the unions with each other are wrong, thanks again

Gerardo Schtremel if you’re using a table saw I would highly recommend getting a digital angle finder on amazon. If you’re using a mitre saw, use a stop block to ensure your pieces are all the exact same length. If one is slightly longer it throws the rest of the joints off

Awesome job with these! How much do you charge for each one?

If you used a miter gauge or a sled you could've cut the splines even closer. Less sanding.

Victor Serrano each piece was 6.25” if I remember correctly. This was a while ago. There are calculators on google you can use that you input the dimension you want and it tells you the length to make each piece

Everyone always puts the boards down first and then puts the tape down on top. You get it tight that way.

You need to weigh your jointer down with sandbags or something, it shouldn't be moving around the floor as you're using it.

I've never heard anyone say 4x 1/4" as a way of saying 1 inch. Is this a thing?

Hey Jared, yeah when you’re dealing with rough lumber suppliers will use fractional dimensions. So 4/4 for 1”, 6/4 for 1.5” etc
