    How has this video only got 500 views over 3 years? It's this type of craftwork and attention to detail that should be getting all the attention! Not to mention all the videography, setup time, editing involved. I'm just starting out on my woodworking journey and really appreciate video's like this. I've just kitted out my workshop and recently also bought a steiner lathe and cannot wait to just keep creating and get my work and skillset to this level.

    I think this would have been a much better video if you had explained how you locate the seat holes, what angles you cut them out, and what glue you are using. I assume it is some type of hide glue. I for one am not a fan of KZread videos that don't give you all the information you need to make a project. It just wastes time.

  • @NorthSummitStudio
    @NorthSummitStudio3 жыл бұрын

    Hey thanks so much Nicholas, the seats are at 78 degrees, all the legs are actually drilled at the same angle one just looks off set depending on what angle you look at the stool. To drill them I just made a jig that really just an auxiliary table set to the 78 degree angle and put in the drill press. Also not sure the style , kind of a modern shaker maybe?? Anyway hope this helps and thanks for watching ✌️

    How do you make the circle cutting jig on the bandsaw? And what finish did you rub in? Nice video!

  • @NorthSummitStudio
    @NorthSummitStudio3 жыл бұрын

    The finish is Osmo Polyx Satin. The circle jig is just a rail that runs in a groove running perpendicular to the blade in a piece of plywood. The rail has a nail sticking out of the end, mark your center on and place it in the mail. Slide the piece closer to the blade until you reach your desired size and spin the piece until your circle is completely cut out. It’s hard to explain but I’m sure you can find a video on how to make one somewhere in KZread. But maybe that’s a future video idea. Thanks for watching!

    This is helpful! I read that you need to naturalize the bleached piece with 50/50 white vinegars and water. Do you think it’s necessary? Also, have you compared bleaching vs. whitewash stain? I’m debating between those two and seeking for some professional suggestions. Thank you!

    Dora Duo thanks! I’ve never neutralized the bleach at all, I’ve heard the same but from what I know you don’t have to with this product which is Lite-N-Up from Wood Kote. I haven’t done a comparison with the white stain but I think if you want a true bone white finish bleach and then the white finish would be the way to go. The bleach gets it 90% the way there and the white oil brings it all the way. Hope this helps!

    A very nice stool with a straightforward and well-crafted design. I offer no suggestions, but I do offer one thought: If you drill a larger hole (about 3/8" to 1/2" deep) the size of the leg diameter where it joins the seat and then drill a through hole on the same center, for the tenon,then the leg just below the tenon will sit a bit inside the stool seat and not show any of the tenon. This can be a nice touch, adding to a somewhat cleaner design, if it interests you. Is it necessary? Of course not. Again, great stool and an interesting video. Best of luck!

  • @NorthSummitStudio
    @NorthSummitStudio4 жыл бұрын

    Thanks so much Jerry! I've actually done that technique on a bar height version of this stool just to add a little more rigidity. But I actually do like the way it looks when you leave the tenon exposed a bit rather than hiding it. I agree though, definitely gives a little cleaner more seamless look. Thanks for watching! ✌️

    Very nice video! I was in doubt whether it takes a special Forstner bit to drill at an angle :) Well, not anymore, seems slight angles can be done in a drill press. All important steps shown, a very nice "no nonsense" video. Only thing, looking at 5:08 at the dimensions, feels like the legs could have been a bit more slender in the middle. Could be the angle of the photo though. Would like to see more of your work! Please make a bench in similar style :)

  • @NorthSummitStudio
    @NorthSummitStudio5 жыл бұрын

    Thanks so much for the feedback! Yeah the angle is shallow enough where the point of the forstner bit still hits the wood first. Its definitely possible to go a little more slender on the leg but to keep a cigar-like taper would make the bottom more slender, I would just be hesitant due to where the stretcher is mortised into the leg you loose a lot of wood in the leg so it might weaken the leg. I hope to make some more videos soon, tough to get done among commissions, thanks for stopping by!
