Tantalising. It was over before it started (something my wife has said). As a maker, I would love to see your work in the production process. I’m having some strap carving done for me on a CNC. 20years ago; maybe 10 years ago, I would have done it myself by hand using some very straight and close grained quercus quercus (the classic English oak but also found widely in Europe). Print out your pattern and then apply with mount adhesive to the board. I would use a router with a high quality straight bit (no need for a spiral bit as you are not going deep at all) to cut out all the major elements, leaving me to complete the finer details - the imperfections that show it was completed by a human - using my carving chisels. Unfortunately, I can no longer use my shoulders for long periods and so, it would take too long. I may take the panels made by CNC and add some finer details if I have the time.

How neat! What I am really wondering is how the British used to finish their wood. Materials and techniques. I see in movies or photographs sometimes this kind of molding or very old furniture and the FINISH is spectacular and I'm always left wondering how they did it! Thanks! Kat

@@BrentHull Thanks! Sounds simple enough. I am looking forward to digging into your other videos. You're answering a lot of my questions!

I love this type of woodwork and especially fell in love with it when I first visited Stan Hywet Hall in Akron, OH. One thing I'd like to know and haven't really found an answer to is how it was actually attached to the walls. By the looks of it the sections were built as one unit but then how were they actually affixed to the wall?

@BrentHull

2 жыл бұрын

Obviously it varied but in general they were attached with cleats to the wall, they were built in sections and doweled together, at least the stuff we've found from the 20's. Stan Hywett is the BOMB!!

I actually live in the neighborhood next to Stan Hywet. I've been searching for techniques on this type of carpentry for years but can't find much. My home isn't as elaborate as some of the others here, but I want to pay proper homage to its heritage by complimenting the spaces wherever I can. Long story short, I'd love to see a whole series on these details!

FINALLY! I've been searching for several months for info on building Tudor Panel Walls, not the everyday wainscoting stuff that is on top of plywood sheets. Aside from the books you mention in this video, can you recommend any other books, videos or training courses that I can learn how to make these types of things? I purchased an old Tudor style home and want to get my skills up before I start to really make the interior Tudor period. thanks!

I don’t know if you are in the UK - I guess you would be if it’s a genuine Tudor house. As I’m sure you have found out, there is no single Tudor wall panelling style. The actual manufacturing of the wall panels themselves is not difficult if you are a competent wood worker with access to some reasonable machinery. For me, there are a few key stages. One would be the level of augmentation - such as strap carving or raised carvings - and the need to get the amount of that right with too much looking too fussy. Another would be the choice of timber; European oak would be a safe choice but there are wall panels made from chestnut or elm. The key for me is the layout with decisions around the size of the panels; the shape of the panels (whether square, rectangular or a mix of the two). Linenfold carving is a traditional element and I’ve just made 80 of them using special router bits. If you need a sounding board, I’m quite willing to offer that.

@@rozstrategy.design3961 I’m in the UK. Part of our current house was built in 1760 - so, a couple of hundred years too late but we have dozens of authentic Tudor houses within 10 miles or so. A few are thatched but mostly they have clay tile roofs; Kent has a rich seam of clay and it was a very local resource to be used. Going back to about a thousand years ago, the Weald of Kent was forest and uninhabited. In those days, every house would have chickens and pigs (the origin of the eggs and bacon breakfast) and, in theAutumn, the herds of pigs were driven to the forest to feed off the beech nuts and acorns. Over a period, there were clearings in the forest which started to be inhabited and those places can be recognised today by the names of the villages ending in -den (Horsmonden, Biddenden, Tenterden etc.). Where the forest remained, any inhabitation ended in -hurst (Goudhurst, Hawkhurst, Sissinghurst). Anyway, the forest was mainly hardwoods such as oak, beech and elm. Therefore, the timber for the houses was again ready to hand. In addition, chestnut and hazel were “farmed” through coppicing; the cut branches or stems were then riven by hand and became the wattles of wattle and daub. The daub was a mixture of clay, straw and animal dung. Some of the exterior walls were coloured by adding blood to the daub and so, we had pink houses. We had a mock Tudor revival period in the 1920’s, 1930’s. these houses were built to the standard of the day; usually 9” brick walls, rendered on the exterior first floor amd with non-structural Timbers added to the front for that Tudor look. Nice enough houses but not Tudor. Perhaps 40 years ago, I was about to buy a genuine Tudor house on a private estate. It still had earth floors to the ground floor; heating was by the (added later) fire in the inglenook fireplace at the end of the building. All electrical cables and plumbing pipes were on show because they couldn’t disturb the walls to hide them. It was a Grade 1 listed house which meant you could not do anything (painting, replace rotten Timbers) without getting express permission. In the end, I decided not to buy because we had young children at the time and it would have been too….exotic. Anyway, I’m happy to offer help in any way that I can. All depends on what you are looking to do.

Varies, paneled sometimes.

Brent, once in UK I visited such a panelled house built in early 1900 and asked the owner about the material of the panels. He said the wood was Canadian pine. Could he be right? The interior walls did not look like made of pine. Pine looks pretty cheap . But they didn't look like oak either. What else could have been used for panelling that time?

@BrentHull

Maybe, i would not have thought they imported pine from Canada, I've heard them use Nordic pine. I'd need to see a pic to know.

@@BrentHull I am more interested if pine could have been used for such panels, not its origin, since pine is pine everywhere Have you ever seen the Tudor pine panels?🤔

Usually the carving details would be different n apply to what the room was for. Like a dinning room would have foods carved in. Fruits cornucopia leaf n wine work.
