Dear Neil, thanks for showing me how to make and use the cutters. As it turned out, I did have a real need for something like this but didn’t have a clear idea how to go about it. Now I do thanks to you. All the best.

Thank you for this! I just made myself a tapered tenon cutter with your instructions - definitely needs some work, but I'm pleased. You made a difference - thanks again!

Love your work. The whole idea of making something form nothing ( or what others might have considered junk) is so appealing. Keep up the good work.

ALWAYS worth watching your videos!! Great stuff.

I really enjoy all of your videos. You make it all look so simple which inspires me.

Great beveled tenon cutters. Surely more accurate, and quicker, than trying to do it all with a knife, draw knife, and spoke shave. Kudos!

What a joy to watch along, Mr. Skilled Toolmaker! :)

Looks like your tools work good! Thanks.

So as a set it's kinda like a tap and dye set for steel! Super cool!

Thank you for making these 2 videos. I will be making these reemer and tenon cutters. I am a full-time woodworker making antique reproduction furniture with an interest in making windsor chairs. Thanks from Kentucky, USA.

That worked incredibly well. The final assembled joint was near perfect. 👍

I've had the Lee Valley tapered reamer and tenon cutters on order since early July this year, and they're now backordered into late November and December (after getting bumped out a month at a time until now, so no confidence they'll be shipped then either). I've got your two videos bookmarked and am thinking I need to find some metal to use for the reamer blade next. Trying to make some staked furniture a la The Anarchist's Design Book, and these two tools are critical to getting started. Thanks so much for putting these videos together!

Nice video, concise descriptions.

Great video!! Im making one of these soon. So many possible options when you have one of those or even better a few in a few sizes lol. Hope you hand is doing well man. Thanks for the great content.

Hi Pask, nice set of videos, I could have used them a little earlier as last month I made a tuning peg set of reamer and cutter by trial and error , came up with a similar system but it took a lot of fiddling round with the cutter before it gave good results and I did round off the start of the blade eventually.

Cool video, even cooler photos, Many thanks from UK

Awesome! I absolutely love how you had to make a tool to make the tool.

Great video, thank you! what kind of wood would you like? oak? beech ? ash? for example...

Great video! I would love to see how you made the dowel cutter you showed at the end of the video. Thanks....just subscribed!

I love your videos, I'm a knifemaker and I find your work amazing, you know how to use your tools and it's very pleasant to watch By the way, where do you get all these pieces of hardwood ?

Just what I was looking for. Unpretentious and generously informative. I wish you were a spiritual guru as well!

muy practico y facil !Te felicito amigo.

Great video, my coffee went cold whilst I was watching it as I was so absorbed in the video 😀. I can see how great the tapered tenon is, but where would you actually use it. I am thinking old style chairs where the legs go into the seat could be one use, what do you use it for? Thanks, Bob

Port Orford cedar is the nicest wood I have ever worked with it doesn’t split, easy to cut and shape and weathers really well. The only drawback is the only place I know it grows is in Oregon.

Thanks for sharing !

Another good video 👍

Yes, awesome!

very good nice job

Without wanting it you made yourself another mallet, nice :)

Awesome, probably too much trouble for one off, but there’s got to be a jig made of a couple of wedges to make the cuts on

Hey I know this video is old but I had an idea for your tear out problem on the larger tenons. You know how a fillister shoulder plane has a spur to slice the grain just slightly before the blade comes through and pares it so it won’t chip out or lift? You could take a spur from a fillister and mount it on the tenon cutter for when you are anticipating tear out

Great set of tools! I'll take that sample joint if you have no use for it ;-)

Thanks Master!!

this is one gigantic pencil sharpener!

I'm curious as to why the bed angle ends up being 20 degrees. What happens if it's 15, 18 or 25? Thanks for great content with awesome tips on woodworking =)

Awesome job, i am going to try to make that. Two questions about the small open handled back saw you used in these two videos, what make is it and how old is it? I bought one in the Restore here in Canada a few years ago for a dollar, and i fixed it up and put some sharp on the teeth, and it is a great little backsaw.

Thanks Tim! I picked that saw up somewhere, can't quite remember where but like you I fixed it up an sharpened it. I have no idea of the make or age but it's a great little saw. :)

Perfecto!

That looks just like a giantic sharpener!

Great video mate, keep up the excellent work. Regards from Gold Coast Jack Marashlian

I like these. I will have to try to make these when I want to build a chair. But at 10:35, did you run into a couple of nails? It looks like you went through them easily enough.

Как замечательно вы изготавливаете инструмент.

Great one! Like all your videos! You mention that after looking closer at the end grain you think the wood is Jarrah, and that it might not be the best type for this. Would you mind elaborate a bit on that? What make Jarrah not the best choice for this? What properties I mean?

next time you start an angled cut in the middle of a piece of wood try starting with a knife wall. strike a line with a marking knife on the waste side of the line about 1-2 mm (~1/16"). then start the angle with a chisel to remove a slice of wood. then you can start your saw will have a ledge to work against.

Yes you're absolutely correct Mark, I should've known better. :)

the reamer could use a couple of balls added to the tee handle , one to extend it to fit your grip better, and two , so it easier on the balms or webs of your hands when turning it , but great build, like the REuse of the saw blade,

This is exactly the video I needed to help me build a sharpener for my huge pencils!

Fantastic work Neil! If work slows down, you can always get a job at Smiggle, sharpening pencils ;)

Your's is one of the best videos on how to make tapering tool. Well done! I will be building one however my diameter needs to be much smaller than yours. It will be roughly 1/4" at small end and 5/8" at the big end. Will be using it to make the taper on a hickory golf shaft to fit in the iron hosel. What would make this a slam dunk is if at my finishing point I would be left with a shoulder. Do you see this as being possible?

@PaskMakes

6 жыл бұрын

If you have a lathe you could turn the tenon slightly oversized creating the shoulder then use the tenon cutter to shave it to finished dimension. You could shape it by hand too, but would be trickier(very possible though). :)

@rcheebunker1

Thank you. I've been using a Veritas dowel tapering tool to start the taper. I then hit it with the belt sander to remove a fair amount of excess. Once that's done it can be another couple hours till I get it to sit tight on the shoulder and this is achieved using a utility knife blade as a scraper, file and 100 grit sandpaper. So anything that can knock down the time would be a bonus. I will pick up a reamer tomorrow and build one like your second one in the video (no handles). I will then try and find the sweet spot with the cutter and through trial and error figure out if it a shoulder can be done. These tools used to exist as most cleek makers would have had one that turned the taper to go into their irons. I don't have a lathe and my shafts are currently in 3/4" diameter dowel form. You've given me a path to start on. Thanks again.

It's a really big pencil sharpener!

Glad your hand is okay!

What if you started by making a compound miter cut in the stock for the blade bed and then glued it half back together again, and clamped the unglued half as you drill and ream the hole? If you have a wood lathe could you use it (unpowered) to guide the reamer!

Thank you

Curious could you drill a straight hole and the blade in the tenon cutter please answer thanks in advance??????

I need one of those to sharpen my giant pencil... :D

great way too make mallets,

THANKS

congrats you made a big pencil sharpner

The wood you used with the plane iron looks to me like it is wormy chestnut.

Interesting...!

Screw a razor blade on the inlet side and have it cut the grain so no tear out? Kinda like the spur nickers on some planes?

I like this video

Could a chunk of a handsaw plate work instead of a plane blade, if you wanted to make tenons that are longer than 2 inches?

Can we have a shop tour

You made all those nice wooden tools including a centre finder and now you use a ruler.what was the point of making the tool
