This video takes 30 minutes to literally see how one joint is made. No cuts, no speeding trough. This is real woodworking. Some of us beginners get frustrated when we see how some dude with a jointer, planer, power drills, kreg jigs, all kinds of saws etc builds a project in ten minutes and here I am trying to build some stools with my circular saw and a speedsquare getting all frustrated.

@Ricardo Landgrave If you focus on hand woodworking with Chisels, saws and hand plane you will build skills that the guys who only use machines will not have. If the world economy collapsed you would do work with the most basic tools they on the other hand will be dependent on the machines. When you finish with a hand plane there are no machines that can get even close to that level of finish.

I've done rough framing for 10 or so years but I'm just starting "fine" woodworking. I love watching your videos because you are calm, to the point and with no fluff. You also give tips and explain WHY certain things are being done which really helps understanding the bigger picture. Thanks for the great videos, you're a living legend.

Paul, you Sir are a genius. Nobody ever taught me woodworking. Common sense, Internet research, going through old books and that sort of things taught me to do a lot. French polishing, building your own wood plane, tools sharpening, and even making them from scrapyard steel. And here are you, teaching me more and more in a manner so clear I could not dream of. You are a seasoned woodworker, trained classically for sure, and yet such a great guy. I know a lot of guys that live less than you work with wood and they are often such snobs, so confident. I guess the less you know the more of an expert you are in your own mind. Glad to have you here, Mr. Sellers.

I had a woodworking shop teacher in high school that had a New Zealand accent, every time I use a table saw I hear his voice in the back of my head keeping me safe. Not sure where this accent is from but he reminds me of my working teacher. He is very good and patient. 👍

As a 52 year old novice who has discovered the joys of working with wood , these tutorial videos really are helpful.

Hey Paul. I'm actually going to learn how to do this Joint tomorrow in College as I'm doing a JOINERY/CARPENTRY course. I'm looking forward to it 😊.

I am an engineering student, figuring painter, and class 3 solder reworker in electronics, who has began working on my first bench and air extraction system. Though this is now several years old; I wanted to tell you that this is still helping people and that I appreciate the work you put into this series. Thank you! Also, using the chisel as a planing tool? Blew my mind. I have been eyeballing them (figuring I can get buy with my drill, a flathead, and my steady hands), but now I know I need them so I can make planing jigs in addition to these Mortise and Tenon Joints.

“Cutting into this face would be quite negative for me..” 😂 so polite and elegant

I’m ashamed that I never wanted to learn these skills when I had the chance to, from my father when I was a boy. Now in my late forties I am finally taking an interest... but have so little time. Hopefully one day my Dad will be able to teach me before it’s too late - but I suppose there’ll always be Paul Sellers if it doesn’t happen, I’m sure there couldn’t be a better teacher.

The tolerances are so tight on his workmanship that I'm convinced that Paul Sellers could build a functioning spaceship out of Sapele.

Mr. Sellers, I am new to woodworking (to call myself a woodworker would be "codswallop"). I have started my shop by purchasing several power tools and have been browsing videos and forums for information and advice. Your name was mentioned in one of the forums and I figured that I would take a look. I am amazed by the work that you do and by the time that you take to educate others in the art of woodworking. You have inspired me to put the power tools on hold for at least a little while and give hand tools a try. I have been practicing the dovetail method that you described in another video, and will be trying the mortice and tenon tomorrow. I'm looking forward to watching your other videos for more inspiration and education. Thanks for what you do.

THAT WAS AMAZING! Thank you so much for your videos and the care you take in making them! Thanks to you this will never be a lost art!

Love your videos Paul, I’m about to attempt several mortise & tenons today , my first for over 40 years. I’ve been borrowing your cutting & chisel techniques for a few weeks now. My saw & chisels are sharp & set! Thank you for sharing your experiences, they are inspiring & motivational.

As joiners during the 1950s we still used hand tools to prep our joinery...from cutting list, to strapping up from prepared - Face-Side- and. Face-Edge...all setting out with the square was done from these sides... Marking Gauge ...to set thickness and width to be planed down to....then a ...Mortice-Gauge...To mark the mortises....if the hand Mortimer wasn’t available, we could all drill then chop out a mortice from both sides using a mallet and chisel.... To ensure clean shoulders ... Tenons... we’re always marked with a ...Marking Knife ...also they were always left at least a 1/4 of an inch longer to help with wedging and for better cleaning up and finishing.... End Tenons were always ...Haunched ... so they didn’t extend into a slot...When marking out a mortice and tenoned frame, always ensure the PAIRING of components.... The fine wedge cuts on each end of a mortice on the reverse side ensured easy wedging....Hope this helps too....A pleasure to subscribe to this Chanel.

As always Mr. Sellers, you have shown YOU ARE THE MAN!!

Guys tr

Finally, another long one! Been waiting a while for a good half-hour with Paul Sellers :) ...By the way, when is the new series with the tool chest going to begin?

First time I've seen making a groove with a chisel to start the saw. Honestly one of the most useful tips I've seen

My first attempt today. Lessons learned and reinforced by your video: 1. Don’t chisel the mortise right through from one side or you create a messy exit wound. 2. Don’t pare the inside of the mortise or you risk splintering and blowouts on the reverse side. 3. Take the time to shave the tenon down in parallel or you can, like I did, create a wedge and blow the mortised timber completely apart!! Love your videos Paul.

So helpful, thank you! Infinitely better and more satisfying to watch than all the power toolers put together.

Any beginners (like myself) watching this. I cannot emphasise enough how important it is to have a combination square that is actually square. Something from Home Depot or B&Q very often is not truly square. It is one of the most important tools you can own and it's well worth spending extra on a quality combination square. Good ones start from around £75/USD$100 which sounds a lot but it will save you no end of headaches. In my opinion its one of the few tools worth spending a significant part of your budget on as a beginner.

Hand tools are wonderful. Minimal space required, clean, quiet. Very relaxing and once you get good they don’t really take that much longer to do a project.

Thank you. That router is amazing. I enjoyed the video very much.

I don't think very much of his time would be saved using power tools, he took the time to show us every detail, but the hand sawing does not take a lot of time, and remember he is assuming we don't have a pro workshop. Unlike many folks on youtube he does not have friends with a pro tools he can "borrow" I have seen a workbench my friend has made, its absolutely the opposite of this, there was no planing, no planning, and the wood supplier sent all the wood pre-sawn to size, which saves a lot of time. It's still a disaster from an aesthetic viewpoint as he did no hand planing, and used quite a few big nails, so all in all he took only a few hours to make it.

Beautiful joint! better sharpen my chisels and get practicing.

@@AGH331 The only potentially really expensive tool I saw was that beautiful manual router and it was optional. Beyond that he used two chisels, a plane, a knife, tenon saw, mortise gauge and a mallet. The most expensive tenon saw I could find online was about 80 Euro: the most expensive at my DIY store is a tenner. A Stanley plane at a box store is about 50, another tenner gets you a chisel set, and maybe another 20 total for the knife, mallet and gauge. It's worth spending on the saw. At the beginning you can get cheaper planes and chisels and tune them up on a stone: by the time you're ready to throw them you'll also be ready to invest in more expensive ones (or you'll be on your next hobby). So ... 160 quid to get started: how much was your chop saw? My similar basic set is now 40 years old. I started off with the cheapest I could find at the DIY store and (other than the saw) I'm still using them all.

They're not tools but rather power machines. Also, they aren't necessarily faster nor more accurate than hand tools.

Why else would many woodworkers and woodworking professional advocate hand tool use in many situations. Your comment just doesn't make sense.

the comment makes perfect sense. If you were to be in a position where a dozen such joints are required, a power TOOL will reduce the labour investment considerably. will it be as fine a finish, unlikely, but it doesn't have to be unless you're an artisan. so I say your comment was confrontational for no other reason than to imply you're thoughts on the subject are more valid than the OP's.

great work and attention to detail here Paul. Though I heartily second Ariel's comment, power tools are a blessing for a quick consistent if not superior result.

Of course. But: - if you want to use a router to cut your mortise, you need a jig to center the router base on the timber. Or a router table. And if you don't have either you need to build them first. Sure, once they are built they are reusable but until you don't have them you can't cut a mortise with a router. - you want to use a drill press. You need good, expensive forstner bits to start off. And you need to know how to use a chisel anyway to pair the sides of the mortise. - you want to cut your tenon with a circular saw. That's probably the easiest way lacking a table saw. But still you need to know how to use a chisel to pair the shoulders. All in all, learning how to cut these joints by hand will make you a better woodworker in any case. But if you only know how to work with power tools, you will be lost without them. Without then considering the cost factor.

Amazing lesson from someone with obviously a lot of experience. Thank you.

No question - the absolute best video tutorial on mortise and tenon I've seen. Any question I may have thought of was already covered by Mr Sellers. Thank you for spending the time to do this.

no woodworker could dislike this presentation. thanks for sharing
