hey guys how are you doing this is there00:00:15
from zealot thoughts and I hope you're00:00:16
having an awesome date so today I am00:00:17
joined by a very dear friend of mine and00:00:19
the old mates thiol how are you doing00:00:21
recently zone natesan stuff if you've00:00:23
been watching my channel for a long00:00:24
period of time you would have seen that00:00:26
in the very early days of my channel00:00:27
from the point of recording this video00:00:29
it's being roughly about four years look00:00:31
at that he's been getting younger I'll00:00:32
be getting older right00:00:33
and so about three years ago is that a00:00:35
video well went to a friend of mine Jo's00:00:37
woodland in Kent in the Southeast of00:00:39
England and I thought a chair making00:00:41
course what ends up being in the middle00:00:42
of a hurricane there wouldn't you love00:00:45
that not literally a hurricane a00:00:46
pass-through about the day before I was00:00:49
in a video like three years ago that was00:00:50
a la summer I saw Neil and obviously00:00:53
we've kept in touch it's been a very00:00:54
well received video and now what I'm00:00:57
here now is I'm in the county of00:00:59
Shropshire which is in the West of00:01:01
England in the West Midlands and we're00:01:02
right on the border with Wells and we're00:01:04
in a place called Salford and we're more00:01:07
specifically in Iron Bridge did you say00:01:09
this is Coalbrookdale which is in Iron00:01:10
Bridge yes well this is a very historic00:01:12
location now we're in their headquarters00:01:15
for the small woods Association which is00:01:18
an association in the United Kingdom00:01:19
that doing an incredible amount of work00:01:21
teaches small word owners about various00:01:24
aspects of Management woodland and00:01:25
autocross that go with it primarily00:01:28
centered around Queen woodworking Neil00:01:30
makes is what they're new boats is one00:01:31
of the primary teachers here but he's00:01:33
also a dedicated teacher in his own00:01:35
right now one caveat I will add in the00:01:37
future we'll be doing a video about the00:01:39
sensor itself is has got a various a lot00:01:41
of history behind it and it's an00:01:43
absolutely stunning location so I'm here00:01:45
today to spend quite a bit of time with00:01:47
Neil he's very kindly taking the time00:01:49
out to show the process from absolute00:01:52
star literal start to finish on how to00:01:55
make a shave horse and more specifically00:01:58
a budges pattern shave or there are many00:02:01
different models that are out there now00:02:02
don't worry if you're trying to figure00:02:03
out what that pattern is you will be00:02:05
seeing that as we move forward and00:02:06
actually the next segment we actually00:02:08
going to look at an example of what00:02:10
we're gonna aim to replicate so Neil is00:02:12
going to very kind of take the time out00:02:13
to show us in this video now a couple of00:02:16
things stress in this video as you can see from00:02:18
the timeline it's a very long video00:02:20
now that's necessitated in order to show00:02:22
every single step of the process and00:02:24
there are a lot of steps involved it's00:02:27
not a simple I am to make as such and00:02:30
there are few subtleties and nuances00:02:32
along the way and along with Neil's kind00:02:34
of experience of many many years we can00:02:36
hopefully partake to you some tips and00:02:39
techniques to start to finish on how you00:02:41
can make your own shape horse should you00:02:42
so desire so you can see obvious it's a00:02:45
long video that's necessary in order for00:02:47
other steps involved and for us to cover00:02:49
that properly the second thing I will00:02:51
add if you look in the description just00:02:53
below this video you will see a00:02:55
timestamp of all the different sections00:02:57
of the process of making a shape horse00:02:59
so if you want to jump to a particular00:03:01
section of this shape horse making00:03:04
process you could jump straight to that00:03:05
down below in the description so with00:03:08
your kind permission you'll yes what00:03:09
we're gonna do now in this next segment00:03:10
we're gonna look at an example of the00:03:12
shape horse we're gonna be actually00:03:14
building and then get on with the actual00:03:16
build from there working with a fresh00:03:18
piece of ash and I suddenly recently00:03:20
been felled so hope you enjoy the rest00:03:22
of this video00:03:23
your new Neil mopes is going to teach00:03:24
you how to make a bodger's pattern shape00:03:27
horse using hand tools and fresh wood so00:03:33
Neil this is a rough example of the top00:03:36
we're gonna build I know you said the00:03:38
one we're gonna build is slightly00:03:39
different but just to touch on this you00:03:41
mentioned is a specifically a bodger's00:03:43
pattern yeah and so can you spin what00:03:44
you mean by that well the Chilton Hills00:03:46
is a big area where the beech trees are00:03:49
and ran high wycombe particularly00:03:52
although there's other areas here there00:03:53
was a chair making industry as well so00:03:56
High Wycombe just for those watching who00:03:58
may not know that's just outside London00:03:59
isn't it's north of London yep and00:04:01
Trudeau mately beech trees beautiful00:04:04
area and there was a lots and lots of00:04:06
beat chair makers but we were working in00:04:09
that area and we're known as bages and00:04:11
this was a synonymous really to that00:04:15
sort of working it's quite a narrow00:04:17
space here and you can imagine it's just00:04:20
really for chair legs that they work00:04:22
with for draw knifing on to get them00:04:24
down to a roundish billet to be able go00:04:27
on to a00:04:29
onto a pole lathe so you can see it's00:04:34
three legs good for on even ground quite00:04:38
a stable process this one's a bit00:04:40
shorter this is really aimed more for00:04:43
children but with a bit of a longer body00:04:46
we'll make it a bit bit more yours00:04:50
I think so three legs two at the back00:04:53
wall at the front the angles that I put00:04:56
on are normally around about 25 degrees00:04:59
sloping outwards I'll do that pretty00:05:01
much on all my benches and make so00:05:05
that's an angle that I'm quite used to00:05:08
drilling into legs with so we'll have a00:05:11
body of ash the whole thing will be made00:05:13
of ash including the the wedge that the00:05:17
the upper ramp will be a little bit00:05:20
longer as well and then we've got a00:05:22
frame that comes off so we have a00:05:24
treadle on the bottom which is used with00:05:26
two feet so you sit across it and00:05:29
trapping a piece in you're actually use00:05:32
both your feet and pushing away trapping00:05:36
a piece of timber underneath so we've00:05:38
got the treadle we've got an adjustable00:05:40
height with a handle there and then00:05:43
there's the clamp up on the top which00:05:46
can be adjustable as well depending on00:05:48
what size piece of timber so it'll be a00:05:50
bit of an all-singing all-dancing00:05:52
perfect you have may see that because of00:05:54
this specific style is easier to00:05:56
transport is that correct yes that00:05:57
because the legs can come out the the00:06:00
top will come off everything comes apart00:06:01
so it'll all be in a kit form and the00:06:04
legs are just sitting to quite deep00:06:05
socketed holes or mortises there's a00:06:09
wonder twisted thing with this00:06:10
particular saw which I've not you seen00:06:12
before is the carve Singh I finished so00:06:14
it's a beautiful addition area which is00:06:16
a twist that I've put on because the end00:06:19
of the day if you're doing a lot of pole00:06:20
weight turning and you're sitting on a00:06:23
shave horse the worst thing you've got00:06:24
is something that's gonna really hurt00:06:26
your backside you want something that's00:06:28
fairly comfortable dope that's really00:06:31
why I put this00:06:33
scallops eating a lot of work involved00:06:35
in that but it will it can be done and00:06:37
it's perfect so this is the style that00:06:40
we're going to be working through and00:06:41
obviously it's going to be tweaked00:06:42
slightly the final version that we00:06:44
actually built yeah so was a next step00:06:46
of the process are we gonna now work00:06:48
with a fresh piece of ash in the tree00:06:51
was felled two days ago ash treat local00:06:54
material and we've got two parts of the00:06:58
bottle the lower part and the the next00:07:01
part above it the tree actually came00:07:04
from an area known as nege Hill which is00:07:08
approximately three or four mile up the00:07:11
hill from here and that was felled00:07:14
brought on site the next section that00:07:18
we'll be looking at we're going to be00:07:19
cleaving or splitting the main trunk00:07:22
apart to make the main body that'll be00:07:24
the first part and then everything else00:07:26
gets built off the board perfect so we00:07:28
move on to our section Nell then so Neil00:07:33
here's the beautiful piece of ash in00:07:35
question00:07:36
yeah felled locally only two days ago so00:07:41
it's really green still after some00:07:43
summer growth in it so this is part of a00:07:47
site where it's come from where it's00:07:48
been managed actively managed so there's00:07:50
a lot of trees that were planted about00:07:53
40 years ago plus and now they're being00:07:56
thinned and the wood comes here and we00:07:59
use its part the courses and also the00:08:02
firewood for beautiful pieces like this00:08:05
tend to get use direct for craft work so00:08:09
with this on the just so for the folks00:08:12
that are watching is a particular00:08:13
diameter they should be looking for when00:08:15
well this is probably a little bit on00:08:17
the large side for a shape horse but00:08:20
anywhere between 10 to 12 inches cuz00:08:23
we're gonna get a seats out of this bit00:08:24
here yeah this is where you're gonna be00:08:26
sat on this so we might just clean the00:08:29
sides up just to give it a a square to00:08:32
feel to it but predominantly it'll just00:08:34
be half a log and then it will get00:08:38
narrowed down where the the front end of00:08:40
the shake horses where the frame fits so00:08:43
but if you've got a nice large seat at00:08:45
the back that gives you plenty of room00:08:48
to sit on and sort of first step in the00:08:51
process is using the throat you say yep00:08:53
so we've got a fro here and the mall um00:08:56
if you look just basically there's a00:08:57
very small crack in the timber there00:09:00
which we're going to have to use and I'm00:09:02
not using the the fro to split it all00:09:05
I'm doing he's on one a mark where we're00:09:09
gonna be driving the wedges in so I've00:09:12
got something to aim to a nice straight00:09:14
edge okay see essentially just score it00:09:18
just scoring it's just putting a mark in00:09:20
that saw the old traditional the way was00:09:24
using axes a lot of people use axes and00:09:26
and also froze were used as well so it's00:09:31
really as do different traditions the00:09:34
other thing is I've got this mortising00:09:37
axe made by grants for Brooks but there00:09:39
are a lot of the companies who are00:09:41
making them as well and all I'm going to00:09:43
do now is just following that line it's00:09:46
in the back of the axe with a would00:09:49
never metal against metal in this00:09:51
particular case not where you've got a00:09:54
really good fight axe cut I would the00:09:58
wedges okay metal against metal because00:10:03
we're going to use a sledgehammer because they've been designed to do this00:10:07
hasn't so with this one associate you00:10:10
take that score a little bit deeper it00:10:11
yeah I'm just creating a crack now00:10:15
scoring it across the timber okay so now00:10:18
we've got a good crack in there I'm now00:10:21
gonna change tools and I'm gonna put the00:10:26
throwing them all away I'm going to find00:10:28
one of the wedges now that we've got00:10:31
here and there is one that I've set up00:10:35
that's got a thinner and finer point to00:10:40
it so this is also quite heavy duty00:10:44
wedges ah yeah there are they're good00:10:46
quality wedges you can see they've done00:10:48
a bit of work what we'll end up doing is00:10:50
we're going to put two in one about a00:10:54
third of the way in and another one a00:10:56
third of the way in from the other side00:10:57
and it's just basically we're going to00:11:05
we see a sonic yet now what I've got to00:11:10
try and do is follow the natural split00:11:13
of the timber it's following the grain00:11:16
basically that's what's happening so00:11:19
I've got one started there and I want to00:11:22
try and get one just below that on the00:11:25
other side it will go I'm just going to00:11:30
open this up so here the spit is running00:11:42
off yeah a little bit so what you do you00:11:44
trying to bring it back it's trying to00:11:45
bring it back in a little and I think00:11:52
it's just the way the trees and growing00:11:53
and one of those things will just have a00:11:58
go we're going to drive a wedge into00:12:00
there now see how just naturally it's00:12:11
following the grain yeah it just wants00:12:13
to split that way so we're going to have00:12:15
to do what the tree tells us work with00:12:19
it see by driving that in these two00:12:25
wedges are falling out because we've00:12:26
opened the growing up in here it's00:12:28
cracking as we go yeah00:12:34
no it's it's not as erst a straight00:12:39
ground a lot of light as you can see if00:12:49
you look down the length of the tree the00:12:51
tree is actually twisty00:12:52
so it's although it looks straight after00:12:55
it's been growing it's been twisting00:12:56
around for the light interesting so00:13:00
again until you open up the tree it's00:13:04
very difficult to to read though and00:13:07
this is what we've got somebody else00:13:09
fell the I didn't actually fell this but00:13:11
so it was felled for me so I'm gonna00:13:13
it's relaxed a bit now and I'm gonna00:13:15
drop few more wedges you hear that00:13:24
cracking okay00:13:41
need to do how's your splitting it we00:13:45
started off with two in the end and then00:13:47
we put one here to open the cut up but00:13:50
because we've got this movement of the00:13:51
tree twisting as we're growing the it's00:13:55
causing us a bit of an issue but we'll00:13:56
get around it then what we do is we00:13:58
start working in pairs so we've got two00:14:00
together and then I've just put this00:14:03
third one in which is the one that was00:14:05
here and we drop will drive these two in00:14:09
and we can then remove this third one00:14:11
out and then that can be brought forward00:14:12
so you're working that safe oh yeah00:14:14
basically yep so it's just working down00:14:16
the tree as you can see the probably the00:14:20
bottom of the cut is still connected so00:14:23
we're going to have to at some point00:14:26
really get into that and it might well00:14:29
be with just after to the tree over and00:14:31
work from the other side here they're00:14:34
cracking that's we've not touch that for00:14:36
a year four minutes you can still hear a00:14:38
little as it's driving the the five as a00:14:43
part you know just caught another one00:14:48
just hear it00:14:50
yep really just forcing those fibers00:14:55
apart straps we'll need every see these00:15:02
are fibers inside yeah this is just the00:15:03
fibers of the grain holding together and00:15:06
they just split in all different00:15:07
directions not a lot we can do about00:15:11
that00:15:12
we just have to sever the dam out and00:15:14
it's okay at this end it's it's become00:15:18
more fibrous referred to as a well this00:15:28
is actually a mortising ax which has got00:15:30
a long thin part head to it they the00:15:34
strapping axes were actually a lot00:15:36
longer than that but for the smaller00:15:37
trees this is probably adequate enough00:15:39
and this is designed to Cox's split the00:15:41
yeah I was basically yes as I say this00:15:43
one's desired for more to seeing cutting00:15:45
out mosses made by grants for Brooks but00:15:47
for this particular application this is00:15:49
it's a good tool as well been a long00:15:51
thin axe head for getting into the sort00:15:56
of splitting those straps that we've got00:15:58
inside there's stuff to be a bit a wedge00:16:03
here so the goal here an instruction00:16:07
with fibres basically yep that's it so00:16:10
there's one in there which and I'd just00:16:19
take it up here I mean on over got some00:16:21
straps here today but you see all these00:16:23
here were just that side we've got two00:16:32
wedges trapped in that end you see now00:16:34
good from this side here how really00:16:37
twisted that timber has been grown just00:16:40
one of those things well so what's the00:16:44
tool that you're using to turn right00:16:45
this is a lot as a PV so basically it's00:16:48
a hook on one end and there's a rough00:16:51
portion here and I can rather than us00:16:53
rolling and twisting hot back I can00:16:56
actually just leave it quite simply00:16:59
/ outside and you can now start to see00:17:04
where the crack all the strapping is00:17:06
really opening up yeah it's quite a00:17:13
strange tree in that respect00:17:15
oh well what I'm going to do now we've00:17:18
got basically a wedge starting here00:17:23
sorry a cut start in there because we've00:17:26
got the wedges to the other side so now00:17:39
you basically separate the fibers it00:17:41
yes that's it this happens but it's all00:17:44
well won't strain this is what you're00:17:48
getting with so much is it's the just00:17:51
the just the way it's grown out there in00:17:53
about see how it's split and split00:17:56
there's really not follow the grader so00:17:58
all well though what I'm going to do is00:18:00
now I've just severed that one I'll try00:18:03
and put another wedge in this side this00:18:09
is going extremely bad doesn't yeah it's00:18:12
a spiral all grown and bodies would I00:18:16
just turn this into firewood to be asked00:18:20
but this is this is dying to what you00:18:23
get with unmanaged timber00:18:37
so let me just check that on its side00:18:42
yeah and you can see now how badly00:18:49
so as we motion there's a twist isn't it00:18:52
quite a skier on this one so what we've00:18:56
now done Sonos a juke joint space and we00:18:58
put it on two to three foot to two00:19:01
bearers basically and what we want to do00:19:03
is we're going to ping a chalk lie on00:19:07
this edge down here00:19:09
okay I'm gonna then put a vertical line00:19:13
we're gonna wax off the worst of the00:19:16
Timbers who have got a dead flat so what00:19:19
we'll end up doing is we're putting00:19:20
notches in it like the old timber00:19:22
framing skills we'll put a bit of a00:19:23
notch in and then we can knock off the00:19:26
box and then we'll use a a broad axe to00:19:29
clean up the surface so it is socially00:19:32
giving us a flat edge - a flat edge yeah00:19:34
and so the way you've held these in00:19:36
place this is quite interested I'm not00:19:37
seen this before so what is referred to00:19:39
as Imber dogs they're basically if you00:19:41
have a look this one's got a a flat00:19:44
which goes in line with the grain00:19:46
running in the tree here and then on the00:19:48
other end this actually got a flat in00:19:51
the opposite 90 degree direction so it's00:19:54
actually hitting the grain in that00:19:56
direction to you you're not going00:19:58
against the fibers you're just driving00:20:00
into in line with the fibers I see00:20:02
that's quite solid you look at that last00:20:04
never seen this before00:20:07
timber framed houses were build exactly00:20:10
like this they would have cleft a big00:20:12
oak tree and traditionally there would00:20:16
have been pits on but originally they00:20:18
would have been cut out with just acts00:20:20
and lines like this and also the hammer00:20:24
you use in this is a these are made in00:20:27
Birmingham or word I'm not I think the00:20:29
company's still going and made by a00:20:32
company called Thor which is based in00:20:36
Shirley this one was made in Birmingham00:20:39
so there it's got a leather there's two00:20:42
rawhide leather faces with a cast iron00:20:45
head and an ash handle never seen it00:20:47
with a lever thing yeah that they get00:20:49
different size some you get copper00:20:51
the end sum you get plastic in the end00:20:52
some that they're all different00:20:55
applications for different crafts and00:20:57
jobs but this one's got a great four00:21:00
they're actually doing similar framing00:21:02
because you can strike a chisel without00:21:07
damaging the end with this leather face00:21:09
and these are replaceable00:21:10
first thing yeah not quite wait they00:21:15
come in different weights as well so00:21:18
this wasn't well is this size reference00:21:21
you can get number ones number two's00:21:22
number three's and before so they're00:21:23
basically in axes and pounds so that's00:21:26
what they were referring to but the00:21:29
largest one I've got of these is00:21:30
probably about a three pound head wowza00:21:33
yeah and some of the big slicks and00:21:35
chisels that I've got you just need to00:21:37
be able to drive it in your way if I can00:21:39
help it and driving those into the grain00:21:48
and you can see that is quite solid and00:21:52
they're easily removed you just tap it00:21:53
mags and where you go so a good way of00:21:59
locking in timber you just have to keep00:22:01
make sure that you've got them locked in00:22:04
properly when you're accessing00:22:05
traditionally they'd have had somebody00:22:08
stood on top of these logs but because00:22:09
this is quite thin and it's right on its00:22:11
edge anyway we're gonna have to do a00:22:13
slightly different method so using a00:22:20
chalk chalk chalk tape basically just00:22:22
called chalk line and what we're going00:22:25
to do is we're going to ping a line down00:22:26
that there's a reference point00:22:28
you can see from here there's a big00:22:30
chunk that's got to come off in effect00:22:32
to create a flat bed and there's several00:22:36
other tools that we're going to be using00:22:37
to to make that so I'm just guiding00:22:41
myself to where that is there and you00:22:44
can see down the length is quite a bit00:22:46
of a chunk of timber it's got to come00:22:47
off and we're going to cut little axe00:22:50
cuts into this and then strike them off00:22:52
okay so what I'm going to do there is00:22:57
just hold that pull it tight and then00:23:00
we're going to ping it like so we've00:23:03
created ourselves a lines here okay00:23:06
we've set it up on these bearers haven't00:23:09
we yep okay we've got our timber dogs on00:23:14
what we're going to be using is we're00:23:16
going to create some V channels into00:23:18
this so basically they'll be cut out00:23:22
like so there'll be another one in there00:23:25
[Music]00:23:27
like so and that's basically what we're00:23:29
going to be shopping at and then with an00:23:33
axe we'll come down and we'll take these00:23:35
bolts off to create a a straight surface00:23:41
won't be quite rough but that's what00:23:43
we're going to do I'll do that all the00:23:44
way along where we need to following00:23:46
that blue chalk line and then from it so00:23:52
if you look at it from a side view or00:23:54
top view down so here's the log resting00:23:58
on the bearers okay like so and if you00:24:06
have a look we're going to be cutting00:24:07
notches like this looking down from the00:24:10
top just a single forest axe really00:24:14
accentuate the rights a lot of stock00:24:16
cuts so now that haven't set one massive00:24:18
slice off yeah you're just controlling00:24:20
it by taking and then what you can do is00:24:22
you can take each and avenges your00:24:24
little section off at a time00:24:27
perfect okay so you go then you've got a00:24:29
flat surface or reasonably flat surface00:24:33
then we'll go into the broad axe and00:24:34
then we'll start to clean it up and00:24:36
that's all done on that that situation00:24:38
so then what we've got then is take that00:24:44
off then as we what we've got then is00:24:48
we've got the log on its side nice and00:24:54
flat on the bearers I've got our timber00:24:58
dogs in yeah and what we're going to do00:25:01
is then there'll be a broad axe that00:25:03
will come down the surface with a00:25:06
cranked handle like so we'll be chopping00:25:09
it down sideways to take off even more00:25:12
surface of the timber and then we can00:25:16
then get a nice smooth finish once00:25:18
you've got that we can then make a mark00:25:20
down the middle and then start to work00:25:21
out the real true body sighs perfect00:25:24
okay so you've marked a vertical line00:25:29
just on the edge yeah so basically you00:25:32
go either get a level or you plumb line00:25:34
it and so that's so you've now got a00:25:38
nice vertical line that you're going to00:25:40
cut to so so here on top you've now00:25:43
carved the a couple of notches and we00:25:45
would go all the way down following that00:25:47
vertical line on the end to a point00:25:50
where it meet metres out and you can see00:25:52
what's happening because of the wind00:25:54
we've got to do on the top we're cutting00:25:56
away here but on the bottom of this end00:25:58
if you come round on look at the end of00:26:00
this then you'll see that it's a bit too00:26:04
good boy is on the other side right so00:26:07
we're going to have to chop out at the00:26:08
bottom you can see the wine down the00:26:10
length and we're just going to use the00:26:14
tree to its advantage now this is where00:26:16
we're going to start working it so these00:26:18
are the fees that you've basically00:26:19
chopped into yep and then from here00:26:23
you're not use and then we're gonna once00:26:25
these all done then you're going00:26:26
sideways basically yeah so what you00:26:28
would do is you'd sort of be careful how00:26:32
you stand you don't want to be leaving00:26:34
your leg over that side because you miss00:26:36
bang you could come into it there are00:26:38
some guys that will00:26:40
we'll stand over the top or you can00:26:42
stand like this but if you glance off it00:26:44
will come into you so you've got your00:26:46
route so I always try and stay on this00:26:48
side of it that's right mm-hmm and you00:26:51
can see I'm just going to now stop00:26:58
knocking off the timber because you put00:27:05
that v-shape in we're now starting to00:27:08
shape it I'm not going to get too00:27:10
particular this axe because I'm going to00:27:17
use a broad axe a little bit later that00:27:19
you'll clean all this off all I'm doing00:27:21
is I'm removing waste so this is quite a00:27:28
small axe really it's a little forest00:27:29
that's I mean the other axes I've got00:27:34
I've got six and seven pounders oh well00:27:37
felling up season these probably for00:27:40
that job do the job you can see so00:27:52
obviously we're focusing strict on hand00:27:54
tools but just just to for the purposes00:27:57
of the video and kind of like00:27:58
documenting this this is someone00:28:00
obviously if you were using power tools00:28:01
you would use a chainsaw as well want00:28:03
you to do these exact same stock cuts00:28:05
with a chainsaw it's it's said that you00:28:08
can actually it's 10 times 10 month days00:28:12
work is basically grab back by using a00:28:15
chainsaw as against an axe right so I00:28:18
remember going back years ago I was00:28:20
involved with a log boat and that was00:28:22
the sort of timings that they were00:28:24
working on so for every one day that you00:28:26
work with the chainsaw it would be 1000:28:28
days as an axe so this is obviously just00:28:31
for demonstration purposes yeah00:28:33
associative so we've done the to stop00:28:35
cuts there with the with the with the00:28:37
axe work and we could carry on and do00:28:39
that all the way through not a problem00:28:41
I'd quite happily do that but but for00:28:43
other safer just for purposes say we can00:28:46
speed up the process by putting in some00:28:48
notches with a chainsaw and because00:28:51
we've got that00:28:53
line here which is giving us that00:28:55
vertical we're going to create that00:28:56
coming all the way down I'll be coming00:28:58
back with a broad ax later on to finish00:28:59
it off and clean it off not sure so all00:29:02
I'm doing is just speeding up the00:29:03
process I'll just get myself kitted up00:29:06
this is a cordless chainsaw recent00:29:09
purchase and it's great because it's not00:29:13
as noisy great from environmental areas00:29:16
triple-s s eyes that we've got around00:29:18
the country now we are actually00:29:20
advocating the use of these so what SSI00:29:22
refers to the de category which it falls00:29:24
into yeah well situs of Scientific00:29:27
Interest through my actual site the00:29:29
Scientific Interest to give it its full00:29:30
title and a lot of these areas now00:29:33
because of the flora and fauna in them00:29:35
we can't be using chainsaws that are00:29:39
well basically promoting you know00:29:41
poisonous gases and and oils into the00:29:45
environment so again there's pros and00:29:49
cons with this you're not going to get a00:29:50
really high rated chainsaw but they're00:29:52
there ok anyway just get kitted up and00:29:55
we'll do a little bit of cutting00:30:29
you're not fully there we go00:30:33
still some fibers to be had so we've got00:30:42
two bearded axes or ones more like the00:30:46
old Kentish style pattern that's sort of00:30:50
big open broad axe but it's this00:30:51
slightly year it is sided the only00:30:55
problem is with this is I I pick this up00:30:58
some time ago but the handle isn't00:31:00
tanked can you see the difference in the00:31:02
handles yeah yeah so using this one00:31:08
you're gonna knuckle yourself or catch00:31:11
your knuckles quite a lot so I always00:31:13
try and show you that buying second hand00:31:15
tools isn't all nice head don't get me00:31:18
wrong but the handle isn't quite fitted00:31:19
right right so but it would still cut a00:31:23
certain amount this axe so if you can00:31:26
see it's got a can't handle so the00:31:29
handle is slightly offset great for if00:31:32
you're right-handed side axe so as the00:31:35
blade hits the timber your handle is00:31:38
away from the the actual cutting line00:31:40
and see that interest I never knew that00:31:42
about a hurdle yeah so always bear in00:31:45
mind when buying a large bearded if you00:31:48
got one second hand to look at just be00:31:51
aware that which way the handles go the00:31:52
handles going right so this is where you00:31:56
can stand over the log and we're going00:32:00
to be cutting trying to cut down to that00:32:02
line as best as possible just coming up00:32:12
towards you can rosette so just00:32:34
okay no we're just smoothing it off this00:32:39
is where the other end of the log isn't00:32:41
quite right so we can still work on that00:32:48
you see actually cutting across the00:32:50
grain which works really well what one00:32:56
thing what you're doing out here what00:32:57
did I forgot to discuss and obviously00:32:59
for the folks that are watching so00:33:00
obvious in this particular instance00:33:01
we're using ash you know more the other00:33:03
good wood that people could use to kind00:33:07
of well with ash a boss it's pretty much00:33:08
anything you can get old off it's a00:33:10
biased I mean I've made Shay bosses in00:33:13
oak in ash in Sycamore ash is a bit more00:33:19
residual strength in it Sycamore can be00:33:21
quite weak birch I'd steer clear it off00:33:23
is too soft but the heads really want to00:33:28
be using the dumb heads which we're not00:33:30
talking about but if you use - it's got00:33:33
a lot of residual strength you know they00:33:34
used to use the morris - the travel is00:33:37
on the back well those were all Ashford00:33:38
framed very very strong some of the00:33:41
other car makers that use ash think00:33:43
Morgan their frames were made from ash00:33:46
so I ideally you want to use the00:33:48
heartwood basically yes a good hardwood00:33:50
oak is really heavy but you sweet00:33:54
chestnut you can use but that's quite00:33:56
soft but it still make good shave horses00:33:59
the end of the day it's a tool that00:34:01
you're using and you just have to00:34:02
regularly maintain what happens in the00:34:04
ice in the woods it's the legs that get00:34:06
really badly rotted so you've got to be00:34:10
aware under a shelter you're okay but in00:34:13
the woods it's the it's the moisture00:34:15
coming up into the ground which is going00:34:17
to rot off so the beauty is is if you00:34:19
don't fix the legs but have a deep deep00:34:21
seat like this and the legs will just00:34:23
sit in it with it with the mortise and a00:34:26
year and basically those you can replace00:34:28
with yeah and then you can just replace00:34:30
those as and when you need to00:34:45
so we're just looking at the length so00:34:47
this is five and a half eight this one00:34:49
yeah just over yep00:34:51
just over far enough so this will be00:34:52
marked off halfway so you've done from00:34:54
that end to two back there00:34:57
nice and then we can be using this for00:34:59
other parts of the you know we can00:35:03
cleave that up but uh because it's a00:35:05
wider bit down there we can keep that00:35:07
for the seat and then we can clean this00:35:09
up and this will be the body but what00:35:11
will happen now is we when we finish00:35:13
cleaning this off I will then take the00:35:16
dogs off and we will then get a mark up00:35:19
a central line down it and we'll then00:35:23
measure about seven inches across that00:35:26
we three and a half inches either side00:35:28
of that central line and then we'll cut00:35:30
that out as well now ideally I'd have00:35:32
liked to have split that will click left00:35:35
it off but because of the the wine did00:35:37
it I'm not too sure we're gonna get00:35:40
anything out of it but we'll give it a00:35:41
go even if I make a cut in the right00:35:47
point we'll do it that way so largely00:35:52
this is pretty pretty level isn't it00:35:54
this at the moment they're in everywhere00:35:58
but it's pretty much straight for the00:36:00
purposes that I want for this particular00:36:02
time we're going to be doing some other00:36:03
cleaning up with other tools yes pretty00:36:11
much there right so what we're gonna do00:36:13
now is I'm gonna ask you to basically00:36:20
with the PV lock it and then hold it in00:36:24
place as I take these off perfect so00:36:27
what you're gonna do is just hold that00:36:28
up and I'm gonna remove these00:36:40
so and you're going to lower that back00:36:42
there and gently try not to process it00:36:48
wonderful00:36:51
so what we're going to be doing now now00:36:53
we've got it lying down we're going to00:36:55
be chalk lining a central point all the00:36:58
way down the timber and bearing in mind00:37:01
we're going to be cutting this down to00:37:02
five foot so the end piece will get used00:37:05
for parts on the the rest of the frame00:37:09
so we're now going to just make sure00:37:12
we've got this centralized and I'm just00:37:15
saying it's round about 11 inches so00:37:17
that'll be five and a half they're00:37:19
important when you measure at this00:37:20
points to discount the box isn't it00:37:22
discount the bark yeah completely and00:37:24
oscillates the actual timber bear00:37:26
anymore we are going to cut a little bit00:37:27
this off to put a chamb fur on the ear a00:37:29
sidewall on it anyway so it's not going00:37:32
to be that with the same applies down00:37:35
here we know that's a five-foot roughly00:37:37
there and we said that's ten and three00:37:40
quarters and make that five and through00:37:44
three eighths so that's the central line00:37:46
there so if you can hear it if you'd00:37:59
like to just come and get us a hand with00:38:00
this just ask you to hold that on at00:38:05
that point their website okay00:38:16
so we're over the the pencil line and00:38:20
I'm just going to night ting that that's00:38:23
given us a central line all the way down00:38:28
so this is all what's up Daniel yep00:38:31
now what we're going to do it's from00:38:34
that central line we know we're going to00:38:36
have a seated area up around this area00:38:40
and I'll probably come back down about00:38:42
18 inches or so that's just going to be00:38:45
a rough measurement so that'll be your00:38:46
seated area which we're going to00:38:49
creates saddle effects mm-hmm00:38:52
and then from there on in what I'm going00:38:56
to be doing is taking three and a half00:38:59
inches as a central point we're going to00:39:02
mark up seven and on the outer edge00:39:06
there okay you see the two marks you've00:39:09
come in how much you know that's that's00:39:11
I've taken going off the central line00:39:13
the blue line yeah where the three and a00:39:17
half inch mark is I'm going to go three00:39:18
and a half inches that way and three and00:39:20
a half inches that way so it'll be seven00:39:22
and obviously a nor there so we've00:39:25
gotten we're now going to have a body of00:39:26
seven inches in width which is quite a00:39:29
wide one we could bring it down to six00:39:31
so that'd be three the side which is00:39:34
quite an you know but you're not going00:39:36
to get much of a piece of wood in there00:39:37
so we're going to go for seven okay00:39:40
bit of a compromise you could go even00:39:42
wider but then you're gonna have a00:39:43
really heavy body mm-hmm so we're going00:39:46
to be got we've got to play play around00:39:49
with the design and I'm gonna do the00:39:51
same down this end here so we've got00:39:54
three and a half so you know that's00:39:56
roughly where the outer edges and seven00:39:59
there so we've now got two lots of lines00:40:03
know what I'm going to do is ping those00:40:04
lines again I'm going to ping no there00:40:11
we go so now you can see we've got a00:40:14
nice straight line then there's a reef00:40:18
cat this central monitor give you the00:40:20
central point to work out from yeah then00:40:22
the alt two lines are where obviously we00:40:25
have the seating area here yeah on this00:40:27
bottom section and then but here it's00:40:29
gonna be brought into so basically what00:40:31
we're going to be doing from this here00:40:32
we're going to be cutting this in yeah00:40:34
like so now we're going to create this00:40:37
saddle defect on here00:40:39
and then this is and then I'll be down00:40:41
to that line and we'll cut that end off00:40:44
there okay and that will be used for the00:40:48
other part of the frame so we've cut the00:40:54
end bit off yep what I'm gonna be doing00:40:57
now is although this has got to have00:41:01
some further work on the top00:41:02
we have got to make a right angle cuts00:41:04
to create a side part to the to it and00:41:10
I'm just going to put a mark like so and00:41:12
then another mark gently there and what00:41:17
I'm just going to check and how parallel00:41:21
that is that's seven and that's just00:41:23
over seven I suspect one of these is00:41:27
just like the a00:41:38
just like that but it gives us a little00:41:41
bit to work out so now that we've00:41:46
obviously taken the size of this off00:41:47
we're starting to look at the actual00:41:49
shape now of the young of the Shay force00:41:52
so what you've done you've actually00:41:53
elevated the height Avenue photos which00:41:57
is great for The Cider big side acts00:42:00
that we were using or broad acts to00:42:03
clean the sides off there'll be a lot00:42:08
more work to do on the tops of these yet00:42:09
so we've just got it to a rough level00:42:11
I've got other tools that we're going to00:42:13
be using on this so we've raised it up00:42:15
to a height we've got these timber dogs00:42:18
backing on these high benches and that's00:42:20
quite stable okay the next thing we're00:42:23
going to work on is the the actual00:42:25
saddle of the the shave horse and if you00:42:29
we sort of refer back to your old one00:42:31
behind it you can see the sort of00:42:36
addition to it you can lay to day add a00:42:40
little back to it as well and there's00:42:42
all sorts of things going on and just to00:42:44
recap you you yeah so you don't need the00:42:47
the depth of these this ain't up to this00:42:50
line here00:42:51
yeah and then at the back here we can00:42:53
have a flat platform that could attach a00:42:56
vise if so needed you could use this for00:42:59
for drilling on all sorts of things a00:43:02
bit multi-purpose a bit multi-purpose00:43:04
it's your black & decker of the back in00:43:06
the day and it's so that's what it's it00:43:08
that's what it is really in effect and00:43:11
now what we're going to do is we're00:43:12
going to dig out using an adze the shape00:43:16
of the of the seat or the the saddle and00:43:20
basically we're going to scoop it down00:43:22
so when you're sat on it your legs come00:43:24
down the side of either side of it and00:43:27
referring back to the old one it just00:43:28
gives you that nice comfortable shape to00:43:31
sit in so if you're sitting in these all00:43:33
day it becomes quite a you just got a00:43:36
flat seat it isn't a very pleasant way00:43:38
of working on my shave horses I tend to00:43:42
put a shape skin or something on it00:43:44
anyway just to give it a bit of added00:43:46
comfort00:43:48
again on adapted shave horses I've seen00:43:52
like the chairs for the Windsor chair00:43:55
saddles you know they obviously host00:43:58
fitted on so you can actually have quite00:44:00
a thin plank and with the seats it sat00:44:02
on to it but this is a slightly00:44:04
different type because we're just making00:44:05
it out of a straight log oh we have to00:44:08
work with that so digging out the the00:44:14
shape of the seat so very mine we've got00:44:16
to be going downhill with it and we'll00:44:18
be working in slightly different00:44:19
directions so what I'm going to be doing00:44:22
is just chopping out starting we could00:44:28
have done this with a slightly bigger00:44:30
it's just this is what I've got here we00:44:32
made today small hand adds and then I'll00:44:36
have got some bigger bolster our lads00:44:39
this we're not going to be going to do00:44:41
with it00:44:42
and once I've got a bit of a I'm going00:44:46
to come round that side of you00:44:49
but if you want me to work on this side00:44:50
said and then you can see what's00:44:52
happening I can come across brain so you00:44:54
bouncing around a little bit so be00:44:57
careful here so just starting it off00:45:02
little cuts are with a bowl and then you00:45:05
can work across brain so pushing for you00:45:10
if someone watching it doesn't happen00:45:12
out there another toilet could be well00:45:16
you could work it out with the I suppose00:45:18
an axe and then if you've got there I00:45:22
say Stephens spoon knives you could00:45:24
probably shape it out if you've got a00:45:27
saw you could cut out so much and knock00:45:29
off the shape and then work it with it00:45:31
with an axe you there is ways and means00:45:33
of doing that00:45:34
what would the gouge work a gag should00:45:36
work equally as well a big if you've got00:45:38
a big gage you know an open a slight00:45:41
hammer with that that would work equally00:45:43
as well I mean I've just got an hour's00:45:44
it's just really a gauge with the handle00:45:47
the largest handle on isn't it an effect00:45:50
see how I'm just going across the grain00:45:55
and I'm working up to that midpoint line00:45:57
now I'm just going to work back we're00:46:00
going to get quite deep here at this00:46:02
point along here and then it's going to00:46:04
come up quite to a shallow point so that00:46:08
will be sitting in like a saddle in00:46:10
effect on any edges catching our legs so00:46:17
though we've got this edge here this00:46:19
will be quite rounded so it doesn't00:46:25
touch the underneath of our leg just00:46:30
rough marking I didn't I work by sight a00:46:32
lot on my stuff so you just took the00:46:34
ergonomics of the back of seat though00:46:36
yeah yeah so you it will be a bit of a00:46:39
depression there yeah both your butt00:46:41
cheeks will sit in there and there'll be00:46:42
a slight raise as a crest in here but00:46:46
it's just going to be enough for you to00:46:48
get a nice seat and not feeling too00:46:52
sustainless you know in a very00:46:54
professional manner would it be a00:46:57
difference with the women and men when00:46:59
it comes to the shape another say would00:47:01
you say well each seat should be made to00:47:03
the individual person that's the key00:47:05
thing and yes H indeed if are in the00:47:09
world00:47:10
each seat will be different so if you're00:47:12
making your own you really want to be00:47:14
sitting on it and just say how it00:47:15
doesn't feel quite right let's take a00:47:17
bit more out of that though it's just00:47:19
you know you'll get a basic shape where00:47:22
most people will fit in but some people00:47:24
will want it slightly different to00:47:25
others and I I would just urge anybody00:47:28
who's going to make one is to sit on it00:47:30
and just sit on it for a short while get00:47:32
the main roughing out done sit on it00:47:35
think yeah that's got to come out a bit00:47:36
more you may find this edge all this00:47:38
edges - he's not rounded enough so00:47:41
you'll need to take more out of that00:47:48
really just taking that edge right over00:47:56
and we're just going to ran that edge00:47:59
right off and all this is all this edge00:48:03
here will we get taken off anyway with00:48:08
it with the other tools here it's going00:48:11
to be a bit more of a depression coming00:48:12
out there's quite a bit more to come out00:48:13
of this bit yet in terms of what I think00:48:27
this would take for any mine we've had a00:48:29
bit of a problem with the splitting or00:48:31
cleaving of this timber anyway because00:48:33
of the year the wind on it I would have00:48:36
thought somewhere in about two days you00:48:39
could have most of this made mm-hm00:48:41
so there's a you don't necessarily need00:48:44
to put a saddle on it you could have a00:48:46
really nice just a piece of eternal00:48:50
that's just got a flat bottom to it00:48:51
hasn't got to have a saddle like this00:49:08
sown it's got a lot of it roughed out00:49:10
with the adds so what are these are00:49:13
tools over here these are these are all00:49:16
in shades or scopes as some people might00:49:20
call them and we've got various ages of00:49:24
score from these older versions which00:49:27
are probably Cooper's tools I would have00:49:29
thought and you see the different curves00:49:31
and shaves shapes to them these are more00:49:35
modern made ones we've got a flatter00:49:37
surface here which is quite a good for00:49:40
chair making and I believe that's the00:49:42
German made version this one's made by00:49:46
rails and friend of mine he makes and00:49:50
manufactures this so basically they are00:49:52
just curved draw knives mm-hmm so like00:49:56
you would with a flap draw knife you00:49:58
draw them towards you so if I sort of00:50:02
removed the ones I'm going to use the00:50:04
more modern ones these tight curves are00:50:06
very good for getting in the the edges00:50:08
in here00:50:09
see and we may just use that to finish00:50:12
off the seat but for predominant Li I'm00:50:15
going to be using these two over here to00:50:17
remove the timber and start with the00:50:24
flatter version one which is basically00:50:30
say your stand and you'll pull the the00:50:33
tool towards you what you're aiming for00:50:34
is a nice thin shaving I'm just going to00:50:37
take the high spots off and we're just00:50:39
trying to make it smooth all the way00:50:41
through so it's just a very nice green00:50:56
timber it's it's quite easy to work now00:50:59
you can see why the deeper curves are00:51:02
obviously useful that nice flat blade00:51:04
there is a slight curve on that but I00:51:06
can't quite get in to that curve in00:51:11
there and over here it will be quite00:51:14
quite difficult to take off the and00:51:23
they've also got be mindful of the way00:51:24
the grains right that's been going00:51:27
downhill and across the grain see if I00:51:30
cut back that way we're cutting up into00:51:32
the grains is just gonna flare up it was00:51:34
a bit like spearing carving just got to00:51:36
be aware of which way the knife is00:51:39
running with the grain no we're working00:51:43
it down this is just a tool to get it00:51:45
flattened down we're going to be using00:51:47
other tools like a Travis you yes we00:51:56
could get into a chair making territory00:52:00
and get it really finally finishing00:52:02
that's up to you but it's a working tool00:52:04
this at the end of the day so this is a00:52:10
more tightly curved yeah this is a00:52:12
tighter curved and shaving I'm just so00:52:16
what you're buying these how do you know00:52:18
think the curvature what kind of00:52:19
reference points are looking for janessa00:52:21
so go to a website and it's00:52:23
well it's individual makers are making00:52:25
them as they see fit00:52:27
I mean obviously the German made version00:52:29
over there I'm just I can't off the top00:52:33
of my head to actually think who makes00:52:34
that one they will find out this one he00:52:37
doesn't see rails and this is his style00:52:38
of chair making I expect he's been to00:52:41
several makers and they've come up with00:52:42
this version which is not too dissimilar00:52:45
so the Cooper style curve yeah you see00:52:50
that that's almost the same shape this00:52:54
is obviously a Cooper's tool Cooper's00:52:56
barrel making is that yeah this is more00:52:59
for chair making so it's a flatter tool00:53:02
and this is probably quite good makeup00:53:05
for for most chair makers things this is00:53:09
quite a tight curve in here cuz the way00:53:11
of the shape that we're working so I00:53:12
think that it's a combination of the00:53:14
Cooper style score and in shape is00:53:22
useful for this tool and you'll see00:53:26
later on that I've got the tip traverses00:53:30
of different grades there's a a number00:53:34
six and the number four which is00:53:35
predominately what I use on my chair00:53:37
making and the number six should out00:53:39
adequately work this really big00:53:45
territory so these kneel what is you've00:53:57
got in your hands oh well these are some00:53:58
tools I've made of their Travis's I'll00:54:01
have the blades made up by a local00:54:03
blacksmith some of my early ones were00:54:06
made by Ben Horford but these have been00:54:10
made up by another guy called Richard00:54:12
Weaver he made up the metal work and00:54:15
then I've come up with this sort of00:54:17
shape which sort of sits in a hand very00:54:20
well they're basically like a curved00:54:21
spokeshave but they're curved in not00:54:25
only in that direction but also this00:54:27
direction slightly again a bit like a00:54:29
spokeshave this one's a number six which00:54:32
is the deepest curve this one is a00:54:34
number four slightly shallower00:54:36
and I've got others all the way down to00:54:38
zero which is a flat flat version and00:54:42
basically how we use these is making00:54:45
sure the blade is obviously a way from00:54:47
us and we'll hear you know I'm just00:54:49
cleaning up the top of this I'm just00:54:56
pointing the way the grain and I know00:55:00
that the grain is here is running up to00:55:02
me so you can see in that spiral the00:55:04
grain has changed even though we're00:55:06
trying to put a flat so that the grain00:55:07
is coming up this way here and here it's00:55:10
moving that way so I just like be really00:55:13
conscious of its way the grain runs in00:55:15
both ways doing it just flat yeah just00:55:48
I'm following the grain again as I00:55:51
mentioned before the grain outside is00:55:52
coming this way the grain this side is00:55:54
coming this way so it's obviously as its00:55:56
twisting around the tree that movement00:56:00
that wind in the tree see how much00:56:02
easier that was really working with the00:56:05
grain that way now if I just come back00:56:07
round this way and I'll work the00:56:08
opposite direction you see how it's just00:56:11
pulling up mmm that just shows you've00:56:14
got to work with the grain so for those00:56:17
watching that maybe don't have this00:56:19
particular tool could they use just a00:56:21
normal plane yeah normal plane is fine00:56:23
but what this is doing is putting a00:56:24
little scoop a cutter curved and you get00:56:27
like this fluted almost like the00:56:29
patterns in the sand when they cease00:56:31
being around and I quite like to me00:56:34
that's just facet work and it just knows00:56:37
it's handmade if you get it all you know00:56:40
belt sanded or flattened with with sand00:56:42
as you just lose a little bit of a salt00:56:43
and it's a bit like the finger marks in00:56:46
a00:56:47
that a Potter and his pots and that's00:56:50
what it is with green woodworking it00:56:52
you're working with a at all which is00:56:55
putting some marks in and then tell that00:56:59
what worker is done how good his tools00:57:02
were how sharpest tools are or in the00:57:05
sir some of the archaeologists that go00:57:08
round looking at old cathedrals there00:57:12
you can look at the timbers in them and00:57:14
they can actually wear okay which which00:57:16
person has worked which bit of timber00:57:18
because of the ax marks Wow so he's got00:57:23
a chip in his ax or whatever they could00:57:25
tell it was here me whoever he was the00:57:34
other key thing is if this is yet flat00:57:37
but a roughish surface when you're with00:57:41
your wedge that will sit on here that's00:57:42
going to keep the the ramp coming up it00:57:45
actually will grip the timber a lot00:57:48
better so you don't it dead flat answer00:57:51
because it can just scoot around all00:57:53
over the place like a normal plane or a00:58:11
scrub plane basically scrub planes got a00:58:15
slightly curved iron okay and that's00:58:20
what I would use on this it's just that00:58:24
I'm using this tool because we're you00:58:26
you know I've done the seat within it it00:58:28
works just equally well now to remove a00:58:29
lot of timber with this from the axe00:58:34
cuts that I probably didn't know I'm00:58:42
doing I'm just working the surface00:58:45
like let's say other people will do00:58:51
other things this is just my way of00:58:53
doing it because it's the tools I've got00:58:55
to hand and like anybody else will use00:58:58
what they've got in their arsenal00:59:01
that's all I would say to anybody and00:59:21
what's gonna happen is because it's00:59:23
really good so you are motioning off00:59:31
camera B obviously this is Greenwood but00:59:35
like yeah if you can imagine now this is00:59:39
the underside of the log so the log it's00:59:42
on the top if the pith line to stay on00:59:44
the middle so this part of the log will00:59:46
actually smile away from the center of00:59:49
the timber so you'll end up if you have00:59:51
a look at this yeah and what's happened00:59:57
is it's it's it's actually shrunk what's01:00:00
happened is all the cell structure01:00:01
inside the timber closes up and they all01:00:04
pull together so what you may have done01:00:06
flat here is actually twisted and choked01:00:10
so that's what will happen to that01:00:12
interesting so and what you'll do is01:00:16
you'll come at some point in a few01:00:18
months time and you're just playing it01:00:20
back it'll take a good good while for01:00:22
this to dry out maybe a couple of years01:00:24
left out in the open like this01:00:26
also that longer yeah yeah it to01:00:29
AirDroid a one inch plank to air-dry it01:00:33
will take an inch of thickness per year01:00:35
to dry how was it was that long that's01:00:38
only getting it down to 15% yeah lucky01:00:41
to try and get that dry so you've got01:00:44
what four inches there so to get it down01:00:47
to 15% you probably going to get about I01:00:49
don't know two three maybe four years at01:00:51
maximum and that's what's happened to01:00:53
that over the time so that's quite an01:00:56
old I don't know 10 50 it01:00:58
years old now maybe something like that01:01:00
still going okay the Train needs01:01:02
replacing the body's okay legs might01:01:04
need replacing and that's the beauty of01:01:06
them as they've where it just added its01:01:08
to it so you know there'll be shave01:01:10
horses I'm sure in the country that's01:01:12
been going on bit by bit and when the01:01:14
body goes then that's the time to01:01:16
replace everything no from here is feel01:01:21
quite a bit a bit of a crown on it a lot01:01:28
more but I'm not going to be too01:01:29
bothered the end of the day it's it01:01:33
isn't like we need to if you take this01:01:36
off use it as a flat surface for working01:01:38
on them yes you will need to play in it01:01:40
but for just as the purposes of the01:01:43
shave force that's that's fine in my01:01:45
book but no not what we've got a do now01:01:48
the next section is just really work01:01:50
this a bit more so that it fits your01:01:54
posterior yeah well fix your leg a bit01:01:56
better and what I'm going to do is01:01:57
actually just chop that a Jack there01:01:59
round that off do the same on this side01:02:01
so that your leg will sit into that I'm01:02:05
gonna get the ads and we'll do this is01:02:14
it this one yeah they got it from off01:02:20
eBay actually but it was it's an East01:02:22
German made one and it was in a real01:02:24
rough state to handle it all rotted my01:02:27
Mac sorry grind it and it's been01:02:28
reprofiling a a few people are no bowl01:02:31
cars have used it and they've added01:02:33
additions to it and with the grade of01:02:36
the angles of the sharpening and01:02:39
grinding and so it's had a little bit of01:02:42
work on the inside as well as the01:02:43
outside great for doing bowls by the way01:02:45
but it'll work on this sort of work as01:02:48
well so it's actually quite a deep cut01:02:59
on it01:03:03
see what I'm trying to do is just round01:03:05
this edge yeah so and again we can just01:03:19
take it out in there right in there so01:03:23
long story short for folks that are01:03:25
following the law just basically use01:03:27
whatever tools you have to have just to01:03:28
get similar basically yeah you might01:03:31
have a gauge recommend you if you've got01:03:33
a deep gauge you could easily do that01:03:35
with this and then work you down with01:03:37
the flutter gauge to get it smooth and01:03:39
then with a scraper blade you get it01:03:40
down to that but the end of the day you01:03:42
just want to curve it doesn't matter if01:03:44
there's a a slight raised faceted feel01:03:48
to it cuz I quite like that anyway as a01:03:50
look and and at the end of the day to01:03:54
working tool that's the key thing with01:03:56
this so it's taken a long while to get01:04:00
to this point but it's all been done by01:04:04
hand pretty much so no we're just01:04:11
porting obviously in between novices01:04:13
shaping the the main part of the shape01:04:16
horse with the hand tools now obviously01:04:18
what you're demonstrating now is do the01:04:20
same process that we use with wedges and01:04:22
the axes to split the main lock in half01:04:25
and now you're doing it with a chain saw01:04:27
is that correct yeah what we're using no01:04:29
you say a milk I'll ask your mill on a01:04:31
three foot big glass chainsaw and what01:04:37
we're gonna do is we've actually cut01:04:38
that in half now to create two large01:04:41
glitches in effect one would be the body01:04:43
the other part which is been left on01:04:46
that log we're going to01:04:48
Mill a plank off that which is gonna be01:04:51
about one and a half inches in thickness01:04:54
and the reason now that we've done that01:04:58
we can actually we've opened it up and01:04:59
you see quite the story of the tree of01:05:03
how it's grown really you have a look01:05:05
here of its in its early days as a01:05:07
tree's quite handy and sinuous all the01:05:10
way through the pith line which suggests01:05:13
that although it looks a nice straight01:05:15
tree that's why we had all that wined in01:05:17
the in the other tree yet the other one01:05:21
we were working yesterday so that's why01:05:25
we're showing you how to mill it as well01:05:27
to get decent in the route of it01:05:28
notice it needless to say the chainsaw01:05:31
and gasnet side of things you only do it01:05:32
obviously if you're trained and yeah01:05:34
fully trained to go through courses for01:05:36
just basic courses and then you really01:05:40
need if you're gonna buy these things01:05:41
you really need to get get some training01:05:43
with them as well because they are quite01:05:44
fearsome yeah perfect so with this one01:05:48
obviously the goal is videos to show you01:05:49
the different variations that how you01:05:50
the process the timber hands and01:05:52
obviously now we're looking at chainsaws01:05:53
so are you ready to go then yeah I'm so01:05:56
good to go so what we've got here we've01:05:58
got some wedges set up and these will01:06:00
actually be fed into the cut as we move01:06:03
through just to keep the cut open so it01:06:05
doesn't bind with the chain01:06:11
[Music]01:06:24
[Music]01:06:54
[Music]01:07:06
[Music]01:07:13
so here we have the finish plank mill01:07:15
yeah as you can see we've opened it up01:07:18
and you can see they're telling the01:07:20
story of this tree is not it's not been01:07:22
a well grown two dead knots here01:07:25
obviously the branches that have grown01:07:27
off and broken off or died in it's a01:07:31
light drops away and the trees grown01:07:33
around it yeah you can see just by01:07:36
milling that this tree must have been01:07:38
under quite a lot of stress but because01:07:40
it's just opened up literally seconds01:07:42
ago on both ends so in terms of a plank01:07:48
we'll get stuff out of it because we're01:07:49
going to break this down into smaller01:07:51
parts so I'm not too bothered but this01:07:52
will obviously get cut out and we'll be01:07:55
using here and along here and these two01:07:58
bits here so we'll get some decent01:07:59
timber for what we want which is the01:08:01
frames of the of the shave horse so01:08:07
there we are but amazing isn't it I love01:08:11
opening up the trees in this respect01:08:12
because it tells the story of how the01:08:14
trees grown in this case not very well01:08:17
so but this has come from a plantation01:08:20
where it stopped being maintained for 4001:08:21
odd years so Neil the Nick's face is01:08:26
using the offcuts01:08:27
and I'm all right in saying you're now01:08:29
going to make a legs yeah we're going to01:08:31
play this in half these are obviously01:08:34
the the pieces that were taken off and01:08:38
we're not usable for the the actual body01:08:41
but we don't waste it which one use as01:08:43
much oh that's the the tree as we can so01:08:46
we'll get a couple of legs out of this01:08:47
and I have another piece that we've got01:08:49
will make the third leg for the shave01:08:52
horse there going to be a tapered leg so01:08:54
it'll be thicker at the bottom coming up01:08:56
to a 1 and 3 inch tenon at the top01:08:59
perfect or good to go ok so what we're01:09:06
gonna do is you're going to cleave this01:09:07
and by using a maul and a frog and how I01:09:14
start using a throat is I just raise it01:09:17
so the tip I'll just using the finger01:09:19
the tip is just on the edge of the01:09:21
timber01:09:22
we're doing it if we sort of measuring01:09:26
up its try and get it halfway around the01:09:29
box I so half and half01:09:33
that's how Emily trying to split it in01:09:35
indirectly in half see where I strike is01:09:38
above that point where the throw is01:09:42
touching the timber is a slight gap here01:09:44
and we just give it a good strike and01:09:47
that's now locked it in and now what I'm01:09:49
going to do is I'm going to strap that01:09:52
off and then we can see where that point01:09:55
actually takes us in terms of the timber01:09:57
now because I've left a bit of the bill01:09:59
sticking through I can actually drive01:10:03
them down01:10:04
I can then turn it round that throat01:10:09
just to make the bill stick out a bit01:10:11
further turning it round striking it01:10:14
again and you can see the crack that's01:10:22
opening up following the way the grain01:10:24
direction is okay01:10:27
oh it just keep going now I know I'm at01:10:33
a point now and feel the tension and01:10:35
timber is removed and I can now leave or01:10:39
this now put my hand over the back end01:10:41
and there's two or three ways well a01:10:45
couple of ways you can either push or01:10:46
pull towards you but so what I tend to01:10:48
do is put me up against it holding it01:10:51
and pulling towards me you see domes the01:10:53
cup or leave ring that way the Frodo and01:10:59
that leaves me with two halves now what01:11:01
I'm going to try and do now is I'm going01:11:03
to split this again actually and get rid01:11:05
of the waste on this edge piece because01:11:07
that's too thin for anything and we're01:11:09
going to get two nice legs out of that01:11:10
so pop that down on that side there and01:11:15
I'm going to create again half and half01:11:18
ish trying to lose this waste piss piece01:11:22
and leave us with a nice big piece of01:11:24
timber here so raising up01:11:38
there's just the matter of twisting the01:11:42
timber around hitting the furrow in01:11:45
different directions and just being01:11:47
house is going to split trying to keep01:11:52
it fairly straight as we go right just01:12:01
here01:12:02
timber packing yep01:12:07
now we're not far off one more Drive01:12:10
that should well that's just gone01:12:11
straight right that's great so there01:12:15
we've got our leg well the one leg made01:12:21
up and we could potentially get another01:12:24
leg out of that it's a bit narrow at01:12:27
that end though but you could maybe a01:12:29
chair leg or something for making those01:12:33
so nil we've cleared off the pieces and01:12:37
now are you going to be using the axe to01:12:39
do what to shape it up yeah we're going01:12:41
to create a rounded leg from you see01:12:45
this triangular shaped piece okay we're01:12:49
going to take the corners off and get it01:12:51
into a round tapered leg the end here01:12:54
will be a 1 and 3/8 mortise01:12:58
sorry tenon to fit into a mortise of the01:13:00
same size which will fit in there base01:13:02
but there's a lot of work to be01:13:04
undertaken we've got an axe and draw01:13:06
knife our way to that so how to start01:13:09
with that I actually hold this to the01:13:11
back sort of 60 degrees the axe is a01:13:14
side action as you can see it's got a01:13:15
flat on the one side so this is a01:13:17
right-handed side axe a normal that's01:13:19
was supposed to for the average person01:13:21
yeah if you've got it but what will tend01:13:23
to happen is with the saw and all the01:13:25
side axes sorry uh normal acts as the01:13:28
bevel goes in it will tip to the side a01:13:31
little bit so you got be aware of that01:13:33
with you with your hand what I would01:13:36
suggest most people do is choke the axe01:13:38
like this so you hold it right01:13:40
right up both your head but all I'm01:13:42
going to be doing is tiny little cuts01:13:43
like feather cuts and I'll just give you01:13:45
an example so starting at the bottom01:13:47
we're just going to do tiny little cuts01:13:49
coming up like this severing the fibers01:13:51
up to halfway and you can see we've got01:13:55
these feathers coming off and they just01:13:56
easily break off yeah so in the timber01:14:00
I'd want to right just work our way up01:14:04
you see I'm keeping the axe vertical and01:14:07
the Timbers at about sixty degrees and01:14:10
when I come to take off those I just01:14:12
raise the timber up keeping the axe were01:14:14
to go all the time move them off turn it01:14:17
around okay and then we're going to take01:14:24
the bark off as well so we've got it01:14:32
almost sort of six sided and we're going01:14:35
to work this a little bit more just to01:14:37
take the corners off flatten the Mac a01:14:39
bit more so we'll end up with a six01:14:42
sided piece of timber so I'm just going01:14:57
through around you haven't actually got01:14:59
it you could keep them quite triangular01:15:00
shapes as well if you wish so that will01:15:03
give you a bigger footprint on the on01:15:05
the ground so imagine we can tidy that01:15:07
up and that and perhaps we'll do that01:15:10
with this one take the corners off01:15:19
take the back off okay so we've got this01:15:33
sort of tapered shape bear in mind we're01:15:35
going to bring this down even more at01:15:37
the end here so this will be a one and01:15:39
three-eighths tenant so that's nearly01:15:44
there I'm just going to take this end01:15:46
off here you can see there's a few01:15:49
straps from the 12 inch we've got to01:15:52
remove we don't want any cracks showing01:15:55
in the timber and that's probably so01:16:04
especially be the end where the tendon01:16:06
is going is slightly thinner basically01:16:08
yeah I'm what I think we'll do is we'll01:16:11
keep it a nice triangular shape big01:16:13
chunky and heavy so it'll sit on the01:16:15
ground well but this will then get01:16:17
shapes from a triangular shape to the01:16:20
round shape and what we're going to do01:16:21
that is now go on to the Shay force to01:16:23
do that so with the X you would just01:16:26
want to mention something didn't you01:16:27
yeah just about safety it's it's really01:16:30
just so people are safe when using it01:16:32
I've talked about choking up the axe01:16:33
which allows you to control the head a01:16:36
lot easier than holding it down here01:16:39
where the weight of the handle will move01:16:41
around I've also taught this particular01:16:43
block which I use has got this up stand01:16:46
here so it stops the timber moving01:16:49
outwards you can hit that quite happily01:16:50
and it doesn't move off the block I know01:16:53
a lot of people use the blocks and01:16:54
they'll have a depression in it and hold01:16:56
it in but you still get a lot of01:16:57
movement in the in the the timber so01:17:00
putting it up like so now with ax work I01:17:03
tend to want to put my what I teach is I01:17:07
tend to want to put the piece of timber01:17:09
towards the other side of the axe block01:17:12
that leaving you plenty of space on this01:17:14
side so for the axe should you miss to01:17:18
go into the block is it ultimately you01:17:20
don't want to be chopping here if you01:17:21
miss the block it could end up being in01:17:23
your leg so if you're having out here01:17:25
you're chopping and if you miss01:17:29
it's going to hit the block one final01:17:31
thing when you're chopping stand to the01:17:36
left with it if you're a right-handed01:17:38
box user stand to the left of the line01:17:41
of the axe so that if you did miss the01:17:43
block it's going to miss you okay so and01:17:46
that's just basic safety really and that01:17:51
way you should remain safe so if you do01:17:53
miss and it bounces out that's what -01:17:56
all happen it'll hit the block not you01:17:58
the other final thing is when you've01:18:00
finished with the axe I tend to either01:18:02
stand it up or in this case just place01:18:05
it underneath the block that way it's01:18:07
not going to hurt anybody what a what I01:18:10
don't use and I don't advocate these01:18:13
people around in the axe into the the01:18:16
chopping block a lot of people use01:18:18
chopping blocks and stand on to get to01:18:20
height from whatever so you might get01:18:21
griten everything in here and you're01:18:23
going to slam into that that's not what01:18:24
you want don't I just tend to leave it01:18:28
on the ground nice and safe01:18:34
okay so now we're on the shape horse01:18:36
nailed in there yeah so now we've got01:18:38
this setup I'm using this nodding donkey01:18:42
style Shay force it's the one that I01:18:44
tend to use we're making the the old01:18:47
watches pattern shape horse but this is01:18:50
the one I tend to use myself it's more01:18:53
general purpose shape horse and claps01:18:58
well do lots of things with this even01:19:00
spoon carving and have you I've seen01:19:02
people use it for so again nice seating01:19:05
position whenever you again safety wise01:19:09
try not to hold and move the timber01:19:11
around so you don't want to be holding a01:19:13
shame horse cause I can tip around and01:19:15
and cut the back of your hand so always01:19:18
try to pop the shut blade away from you01:19:22
and then you can move the timber around01:19:23
in the shade Bors quite happily to two01:19:25
hands okay get it secure make sure that01:19:29
you've got enough pressure with your01:19:31
foot on the treadle so that timber01:19:34
doesn't come out on putting up and do it01:19:37
not too much pressure but there's enough01:19:39
there for it not to slide out and hit me01:19:41
in the chest which is what can happen if01:19:43
you don't put enough pressure another01:19:45
thing that I use on this type of shave01:19:47
horse is this little bit of a leather01:19:49
patch here and it just grabs grabs the01:19:53
timber and we can do the same on the01:19:59
okay so it's not gonna be a fine piece01:20:28
of furniture although you can make01:20:35
while you'll do this I mean my son like01:20:38
a bit of a dark question but someone01:20:40
doesn't have a capable to do this01:20:42
precisely to make yeah well you could01:20:45
actually I have seen shape horses sorry01:20:50
draw knives used in in advice you know01:20:53
with them with a vise so you could01:20:55
actually clamp and user you just have to01:20:57
be extra careful that you do hold both01:20:59
hands and you get a good standing01:21:00
position and work with that ultimately01:21:04
it's always nice to have a sit-down so01:21:11
we're just gonna be nice and green I'm01:21:20
just sorting out the leg01:21:24
you know it's just a triangular shaped01:21:27
leg at the end of the day but what will01:21:29
happen is we're going to turn that01:21:30
around and now we can start to bring01:21:33
this day always make sure when you're01:21:44
using a shape a draw knife you have both01:21:47
hands around it and a good grip with01:21:49
your thumb there's two ways of using it01:21:52
you can see from this I've actually got01:21:54
the flat of the draw knife down cuz I'm01:21:56
just smoothing it off really an effect01:21:58
but if you really want to dig in you can01:22:01
turn it over the other way so that bevel01:22:03
is down and that really does bite into01:22:05
the ear and see how much hard that they01:22:08
sit today so I'm using it that way01:22:13
around we have on the compass shape01:22:14
shaking it off getting rid of all those01:22:17
cuts01:22:20
we're gonna try and turn it into a01:22:23
rounded shape you get a bit of a piece01:22:43
of timber it's sort of these difficult01:22:47
is a bit naughty and it guides what you01:22:50
can do let's see if that's grap like so01:22:52
you can actually lift by twisting your01:22:56
wrists it just lifts and the fibers will01:22:58
all open up they can finish you off what01:23:12
I'm gonna do is I'm gonna start rounding01:23:15
off the top here okay a bit more work on01:23:37
this I think just to try and take down a01:23:39
little bit so Neil now that has been01:23:55
shaped up with a draw knife what's next01:23:57
alright so the next thing is what I'm01:23:59
going to do is put a round tenon on this01:24:00
I know it's green a lot of people put01:24:02
the Tenon's on when they're when they're01:24:04
dry the legs and you can do that that's01:24:06
not a problem but because we're trying01:24:09
to get this all done throughout one01:24:11
session what I'm going to be doing is01:24:13
inserting this green and burning mind01:24:16
it's going to be tapered anyway so the01:24:18
shoulder at the end is what's going to01:24:20
lock it into the mortise so we're going01:24:23
to put in a tenon round about two inches01:24:26
in length and that will sit neatly into01:24:28
the base of the the01:24:31
chez Paul's body so how I do this again01:24:35
we're still sitting on our show you01:24:37
force we can clamp it and this is the01:24:39
beauty of it-- why I like this01:24:40
particular shape because it allows me to01:24:43
do these legs so what is it you use in01:24:45
here there so this is around a plane01:24:46
this is a very old one I inherited this01:24:51
there are a comfort there is a company01:24:53
called ash and crafts that make these in01:24:55
Britain I think they're still operating01:24:59
so this is a version of that they used01:25:02
to be a guy here in Telford who used to01:25:04
make these but he passed away a few01:25:07
years back and used to do great big01:25:10
versions like those three inches in01:25:11
diameter this one is a size an inch and01:25:14
three eighths and it works really well01:25:15
with the the scotch I organ that I've01:25:19
got that pairs up to the tenon size on01:25:22
this right so it's just a matter of01:25:24
simply clamping the piece of wood in01:25:28
your shave horse and it's turning01:25:30
clockwise and as you can see put a bit01:25:35
of pressure we've got a blade which is01:25:38
well it is basically a spokeshave blade01:25:42
you're going to turn that and we create01:25:44
these shavings makes good fire lighting01:25:50
material when that's dry date you no01:25:54
good to you bushcrafting guys fantastic01:26:01
for those that don't have this tool01:26:03
would like just some refiner work life01:26:06
is tough you think you just use use your01:26:09
your your tenon cutters or sorry not any01:26:14
cuts of your scotch or get or your brace01:26:18
and bit whatever size you've got to and01:26:21
you could just drill a mark in the end01:26:24
so you know exactly what you've got01:26:25
so if it's an inch and three-eighths01:26:27
which is great or an inch you can put a01:26:29
tenon on that just mark it with the ears01:26:31
and that'll give you a mark that you can01:26:33
then draw knife down to bear in mind01:26:36
this is green so so the the end it would01:26:39
just give you a mark at the end and you01:26:41
could actually draw a knife it off very01:26:42
carefully01:26:43
to make life a bit simpler I'm using one01:26:46
of these now because it's tapered I'm01:26:57
just going to stop these that back and01:26:59
I'm just to show you we've got a brass01:27:01
ring in here which is a stop it rubbing01:27:04
basically the aluminium which is soft01:27:07
and you can see it's just starting to01:27:09
bite on the shoulder so on it happen01:27:13
get back we've not drawn off and I can01:27:15
just remove that down a little bit more01:27:17
and you can start to see there's a01:27:19
shoulder being built up here01:27:21
nice straight Tennant and then it's01:27:22
shouldered a just going to turn it round01:27:24
you see how it's rubbing on timber here01:27:27
so I'm just going to take that off as I01:27:31
say we're looking for a straight Turner01:27:33
we've only got about an inch on there at01:27:34
the moment I'm gonna look for about a01:27:35
two and a half inch maybe turnin on I'll01:27:38
sit neatly into the body just in the01:27:50
final shape you're not yeah just before01:27:52
I'm doing is on you're just making it01:27:54
look a bit frizzy oh that's all I want01:27:57
to do is I'm just grading it into that01:28:14
shoulder that becomes a sort of finished01:28:17
leg said nil moving on turn next face01:28:24
return the main piece on its head and so01:28:28
obviously this is the bottom part facing01:28:30
up we've clamped it down and now01:28:32
obviously you want to look at the01:28:33
placement of the legs yeah so where I'm01:28:36
stood is the the seat end of the shape01:28:39
horse and if you have a look briefly01:28:43
we've got a central point that I've01:28:45
marked out halfway between and I've come01:28:48
back about four and a half inches and01:28:50
from that central point I've done a two01:28:53
and a half inch marking she's going to01:28:56
give me that01:28:57
the center point for the holes and we're01:28:59
basically going to drill at about a01:29:01
twenty five degree angle and raking it01:29:04
out as well so we've got a rake and01:29:05
splay to give their legs01:29:06
well splayed out so they're basically01:29:08
bending out and embedding backwards01:29:11
basically so we don't have them out and01:29:13
vertical that way they're actually01:29:14
angled in two directions01:29:16
okay break and supply so that's on the01:29:19
back on the front end there'll be one01:29:22
leg straight down the middle like so so01:29:27
this is going straight out straight out01:29:29
but again that is angled out away from01:29:31
the body so you've got a three-point01:29:34
contact with the ground01:29:35
really well splayed out legs which is01:29:39
going to make it a good contact with the01:29:42
ground and it won't tip over then when01:29:43
you're sat on it perfect so that's a01:29:48
poor the holes what are you using right01:29:49
all I've got here is a one and01:29:51
three-eighths scotch I orga now the AIDA01:29:55
party's obviously this piece of the trap01:29:58
here and there's a hand wooden handle goes01:30:00
through and it's basically turned in a01:30:02
clockwise direction to cut the scotch01:30:04
part of the name of it is actually to do01:30:06
with the cutter you'll see if you've got01:30:09
a bracing bit you'll see that on the01:30:12
Jennings or Owens style pan there will01:30:14
be an ear here that cuts a nice true01:30:17
hole this is a bit more aggressive and a01:30:19
bit more of a rough cut to it but you'll01:30:23
see there's a sharp edge there and a01:30:24
sharp edge here and that just really01:30:27
cuts out a hole and obviously so you01:30:29
want this basically and stating the01:30:31
obvious here but for the purposes of the01:30:33
video it's going to be the same thickness as a tenant okay so this is01:30:35
one and three-eighths the the tenon01:30:37
cutter that we used previously has put01:30:39
the tenon all the rounder plain has put01:30:42
the tenant onto the end of the legs01:30:44
we're drilling out the mortise now which01:30:46
it'll be around Morse's01:30:51
okay good to go or good to go right what01:30:55
we're going to do now is we're just01:30:57
buying this in I don't I use about a01:31:00
twenty five degree angle so it's angling01:31:03
out 25 degrees from a vertical point01:31:05
here and also from a vertical point this01:31:08
way so they're well splayed out and I'm01:31:11
just going to twist and get the screw to01:31:14
bite into the timber once these are in01:31:17
position and adjusted you can alter them01:31:19
but you have to back them off and I'll01:31:21
I'll just talk through that as I'm doing01:31:23
it so now I've got it pretty much set at01:31:26
the angle that I want I'm gonna start01:31:28
drilling in and the lead screw on it01:31:31
just pulling it into the fibers and you01:31:34
can see now if you think that you've01:31:44
made a slight discrepancy with the angle01:31:49
what you can do is you can back back it01:31:51
off the reason you're doing that is you01:31:56
can actually know these lead through01:31:58
thread is in a slightly enlarged hole01:32:01
because you backed it off and you can01:32:02
alter it to suit which angle that you01:32:05
want okay and the reason that I say back01:32:09
it off because if you've got this lead01:32:10
screw if you try and bend that when it's01:32:13
in the wood tight you're likely to break01:32:16
the tip off and well that's just01:32:17
Mazal throw it away then that's a very01:32:19
useful tool that's gone so treat your01:32:23
tools with respect in application so01:32:25
let's go back to drilling now get it01:32:29
into the hole and happy with the angle01:32:45
[Applause]01:32:46
in terms of depth what are you looking01:32:48
at roughly right well there is two ways01:32:51
of looking at this you can do a stopped01:32:53
mortise so the hole doesn't come all the01:32:55
way through which we might do that in01:32:57
this case or you can go through mortise01:33:01
where the end of the leg sticks right01:33:03
through and you just cut that offices01:33:04
suit that way you know that you've got a01:33:07
real good depth of tenant inside the01:33:09
timber and it's up to you what do you01:33:12
want to do that if you want to be a01:33:13
structural point of view is there a01:33:15
difference between the one going through01:33:19
is obviously going to be stronger both01:33:22
from an aesthetic point of view if you01:33:25
only go so far you are not going to see01:33:29
a nasty hole the other side but you can01:33:31
you can read if you go through you can01:33:33
wedge it so the legs are permanently01:33:35
fitted we'll have a chat about that01:33:38
we've got them in but I think what we'll01:33:41
try and do with this because your your01:33:44
particular shave horse that you're01:33:45
making will need to have a removable01:33:49
legs so they don't need to go all the01:33:51
way through the only and I'm saying that01:33:56
because I'm almost minded if you do go01:33:58
all the way through you can actually tap01:34:00
the legs out with a pin the other side01:34:03
mm-hmm because if they if they are stuck01:34:06
it's a little bit awkward to try and01:34:08
pull them out you haven't got a throat01:34:09
mo so there's a pros and cons for both01:34:12
and it takes you what you want really so01:34:16
we've done now is we've drilled the the01:34:18
hole and it's gone in three and a half01:34:20
inches there abouts the actual tenon on01:34:23
this is about three inches so we're01:34:24
going to get a nice gap in the bottom so01:34:25
that means it's tighten up on the on the01:34:29
shoulder of this I'm going to tap it all01:34:34
the way in but I've tapped it in enough01:34:36
to give me guidance so when I drill the01:34:39
next hole mm-hmm so I've got something01:34:41
to refer to and if I get the01:34:45
the Scotch I organ act now this is the01:34:50
bit that everybody has a little bit of a01:34:54
problem with but now I'm looking at the01:34:56
central line that I've got here you can01:34:58
see now that I've got the reference01:35:00
point so long as the angles somewhere in01:35:02
there I can I can start drilling so just01:35:09
get the screw thread in01:35:13
this side should be okay all right just01:35:17
make sure I've got just back it off make01:35:19
sure I've got the angle right and I'm01:35:21
happy with the central position happy01:35:23
with that direction as well and then01:35:25
we're away so you can see by when the01:35:35
legs are in there's quite a distance01:35:37
apart at the bottom end quite tight at01:35:40
the top end but very far apart so that01:35:43
angle about 25 degrees from the vertical01:35:46
in both directions it's quite important01:35:49
so these through a red and now you're01:35:56
looking at the one at the back yeah so01:35:58
what I'm gonna try and do is I've got to01:36:00
make sure that we've vertical are down01:36:03
the line of the body and we're also01:36:05
going to do this 25 degrees from the01:36:08
vertical coming back this way so it's01:36:10
going to splay out about 25 degrees as01:36:24
we've had this in a sort of a bit of a01:36:25
triangle shape the back of the so this01:36:28
is the box so I'll always put inside the01:36:35
yeah it's pretty good good as I say01:36:40
that's tight but as this leg dries01:36:42
you'll probably need to just tap it in a01:36:44
bit more into the into the hole because01:36:48
of the shrinking because of the01:36:49
shrinkage so it'll go from around shape01:36:51
that we've got to a slightly oval shape01:36:52
and that's just not natural the green01:36:54
would work but because this is not a01:36:57
chair it's just a working tool the leg01:36:59
will will fit anyway because it'll just01:37:02
go down onto the tape and shoulder sit01:37:05
so that body's done happily Zac01:37:11
so here we go in all its glory01:37:14
the first face is looking at the01:37:16
business now new do the traditional01:37:22
booty check that's alright01:37:28
oh just saying before about using this01:37:31
as a another sort of bench as well as01:37:34
well as using a draw knife as a board01:37:36
you can actually use this back we can01:37:38
flatten off the back and use this as a01:37:39
clamp so you can actually have a round01:37:41
piece of timber for making cutting01:37:44
Tenon's on with your tenon cutters01:37:45
interesting so and again that just01:37:48
you're acting that half using that as a01:37:50
work surface as you were saying that we01:37:52
can also attach a clown comical yeah one01:37:55
of these little voices as well with this01:37:57
blue thread onto it and that will fit01:37:58
onto there as well and so you've got a01:38:01
little bit of a multi-purpose work bench01:38:04
really they can take the shows or01:38:05
whatever into the woods it all works01:38:12
so Neil what's next in the process here01:38:16
we we did cut this plank now had there01:38:19
not been a wind in the tree we'd have01:38:21
been cleaving these and draw knife in a01:38:23
mock and still do that but we plant this01:38:25
up yesterday with the machine so we've01:38:27
got you can tell this is really fresh01:38:30
and it must have hit the ground because01:38:32
we've had some shake come in it you see01:38:33
how and it's now showing the true colors01:38:36
of either tree started off in growth01:38:38
there's a bit but out of that we're01:38:40
gonna make four pieces so for the to01:38:45
shave horses this is the frame the side01:38:48
of the frame if you look on the old one01:38:52
there that we've had we've got it01:38:55
that's me made out of a branch but we're01:38:57
gonna be using two pieces gonna be a bit01:39:00
more stable with this what we're gonna01:39:04
do is I've got a measure about three and01:39:07
a half inches from this Liebert she will01:39:09
keep the live edge on on it and we're01:39:11
going to measure about 40 inches in01:39:14
length just to give us enough to be able01:39:16
to cut the true length of what we need01:39:20
I've got three 1/2 inch measurements on01:39:21
there I'm just gonna mark that they're01:39:26
okay and then we're gonna bill cut that01:39:29
out and then we're gonna mark another01:39:31
one on here another on down there01:39:33
another one down here loose losing this01:39:34
bit of debt knots that won't play part01:39:37
of what we're doing so we're going to01:39:42
saw this down now using this panel saw01:39:45
and I'm just a safety tip here just to01:39:48
start the cut off if you get your thumb01:39:50
planted down vertically and the Anaka01:39:53
will rest up against the plank xre the01:39:56
side of the saw and just by doing that01:39:59
we can there see how that was worthy01:40:01
it's just stopping the store from01:40:03
waggling around now the next thing to01:40:06
consider when you're soaring is making01:40:07
sure you saw your forearm your upper arm01:40:11
and your shoulder are all in the line so01:40:12
that it's not over there and it's not01:40:16
here so you're not bending the saw01:40:17
because that's when the saw will wash01:40:19
the trap so nice movement steady01:40:21
movement what I'm doing is I'm keeping01:40:26
the pencil line on the left-hand side of01:40:28
the store just throwing that down01:40:31
vertically01:40:43
okay so what we've got here is that is a01:40:46
bit of an issue now with the the cut01:40:48
that we're trying to get through this01:40:50
timber the end is closing up that's01:40:53
because of the grain the way it is it's01:40:56
trying to shut that cut up so what you01:40:58
can use is little tech news put a wedge01:41:00
in it see that's just open matter01:41:02
yeah it just forces slightly Oh be01:41:05
careful you don't over tap that in01:41:07
because it will just put a split01:41:08
straight down you timber and you can see01:41:10
what's happened naturally so you can01:41:14
carry on story01:41:17
so Neil will obviously marking up01:41:20
another piece okay same for the leg are01:41:22
you emotional something about utilizing01:41:23
the waves in the herbs yeah as you can01:41:26
see from the the other two that has been01:41:29
cut out we've got two nice straight01:41:30
pieces off the top of the plank the01:41:34
bottom of the tank we've actually got01:41:36
the see where the curve of the tree has01:41:39
been growing although it looks straight01:41:41
sided there is the actual natural curve01:41:42
of the tree when it's in its early01:41:44
stages of life so what I'm gonna do is01:41:47
I'm gonna use that split that's already01:41:49
occurred because that's the natural01:41:52
cleaving line and you can see following01:41:55
down the actual grain that's what we're01:41:58
going to be cutting out and what I'll do01:42:00
off that is on the measure again three01:42:02
and a half inches following that curve01:42:05
all the way around and just lovely shape01:42:10
yep so it's it actually is a more01:42:13
organic shape to the because we're01:42:20
actually working in conjunction with01:42:22
nature so what I will do is I'll cut01:42:24
that curve off and then I'll stride the01:42:27
line on that side and we'll cut that out01:42:30
and then what we'll do is we'll use that01:42:32
as the template will turn the plank over01:42:33
and we'll use the natural curve the01:42:36
other way to create the the other half01:42:38
of it Oh interesting okay so now what01:42:40
we've got now is we've got the curve cut01:42:43
nice shape onto it following the grain01:42:46
and what I'm going to do is following01:42:47
that three and a half inch line I'm01:42:50
going to scribe this now using my end of01:42:54
a square here we can just follow that01:42:57
around following this shape of the curve01:43:00
on the inner side01:43:05
okay so that's that's doctor that's01:43:09
going to be a nice curve on that we'll01:43:11
cut that out and then we'll transport it01:43:16
over to this side what we'll do is we'll01:43:17
put a curve like that and you can see01:43:21
that there's a natural curve there that01:43:24
we can then transfer on to that side01:43:30
that makes sense yep so we'll come over01:43:36
sorry that's not gonna cameraman out01:43:40
total fit or something like that let me01:43:45
finish cutting it and it'll become more01:43:47
apparent gay so now what we've got we've01:43:49
turned the plank over this bottom piece01:43:52
and we use that other curve we've got a01:43:54
mirror image or use the top one as a01:43:57
template and you can see the curve is01:43:59
naturally replicated there and I'm just01:44:02
gonna the reason I've come in a little01:44:04
bit there's a slight crack from the01:44:05
center piff line which i want to remove01:44:07
you don't want that in and I'm just01:44:09
going to shake that up like so and come01:44:12
down real slow you wouldn't make sure01:44:19
something about the curve in the way it01:44:21
helps it a shuttles yeah okay so if you01:44:23
imagine us use this shaver or sphere if01:44:28
you have the the the the straight piece01:44:32
and the curved piece together01:44:33
if we were to use the straight piece01:44:36
first when it's moving you see that it01:44:41
takes a lot more with your feet to push01:44:43
it over to clamp the timber if you've01:44:46
got a curved piece that actually hits01:44:48
the timber a lot sooner01:44:49
interesting so she starts with the01:44:51
ergonomic yeah it is so that's one of01:44:54
the reasons for using of curved piece01:44:56
and it could be branch wood we've got a01:44:59
sinuously the plank that we've taken it01:45:01
from you can see the curve the natural01:45:03
Kirk growing curve of it but it could01:45:05
have been a branch event branch that we01:45:08
could have cleft in half and worked it01:45:10
and on that but we've just speeded up01:45:12
the process01:45:13
perfect so nil for the next component01:45:18
we're making this top piece here right01:45:19
yeah this is the ramp or the plank01:45:24
that's on here this is what will clamp01:45:27
all the timber that's gonna be drawn aft01:45:29
mm-hmm so everything will rest on here01:45:31
it gets supported by a wedge this is an01:45:35
old-style version it's a bit shorter01:45:37
than the one we're making we're gonna be01:45:40
obviously using this be a lot more01:45:42
support and with yours a lot longer legs01:45:44
so it will be a lot heavier on the01:45:46
ground perfect okay so what we're doing01:45:49
now is we've got this slightly air-dried01:45:52
plank it is only planked a few months01:45:55
back although the trees been down a lot01:45:57
longer than that and I'm going to lose01:46:00
the those splits that are in the ends01:46:02
with marking you up with 35 inches I'm01:46:05
going to do two pipes that one for each01:46:07
of our show forces so just a missional01:46:10
on camera actually making another shave01:46:12
all this in parallel yeah one for the01:46:14
center and the ERC one one that I'm01:46:16
taking away so yeah so these two on top01:46:20
so now it's just a simple that's the01:46:21
length we've all seen our got to cut the01:46:23
OSHA mark up the width as well mm-hmm01:46:26
and what we'll do is we'll take the best01:46:28
of the timber will lose the live edges01:46:30
and we'll take down Center Cole and so01:46:33
in terms of width and how are you01:46:34
working on the width is it based on the01:46:37
the width on theme' yep so the plank01:46:39
will be the same width as the the body01:46:42
itself in this case this one's six01:46:43
inches the other one because we could01:46:45
get the seven inch width on that will be01:46:47
that will be seven inches and it just01:46:50
the wider the plank you can get the01:46:53
bigger the bits of timber in you can get01:46:55
really perfect yeah so you have to01:46:59
understand that the the old bodger's01:47:01
were just making chair legs who's there01:47:03
anything above two inches was not really01:47:06
needed Wright's be honest01:47:12
[Music]01:47:24
so nil so we've gone ahead and made the01:47:27
block that sits underneath so you all01:47:29
talk a little bit about that yeah it's01:47:30
just a wedge that helps keep the ramp at01:47:33
the right angle and it is adjustable so01:47:36
by getting a higher plank height you can01:47:40
push the plank or the wedge in it to01:47:42
whatever height you want as you can see01:47:45
it just goes up a bit higher and that so01:47:47
you've got several different adjustments01:47:49
now you've got the adjustment little01:47:50
pattern with the holes in the actual01:47:53
frame which we're going to do next and01:47:55
also the height can be adjusted so01:47:57
depending on what size of timber it is01:47:59
and you get a good effective grip by01:48:02
adjusting the height of the frame and01:48:04
also the height of the ramp that's01:48:06
awesome ergonomics of the wedge itself01:48:08
you just talk about that yeah so if you01:48:10
have a quick look it's been roughed out01:48:12
with a chain saw in this particular case01:48:14
it's just an angle block now a lot of01:48:17
people have their high points at right01:48:20
at the back I tend to bring mine a01:48:22
little bit further forward so it just01:48:24
helps with the timber underneath and you01:48:28
haven't got this fulcrum there is a01:48:30
little bit of a fulcrum point there that01:48:33
means you can bring the block right in01:48:34
or push it right up you actually got the01:48:36
high point a little bit further forward01:48:38
and until we get the frame on explain it01:48:42
I just one last thing on the top01:48:45
obviously you've angled up the just on01:48:47
the wedge yeah if you lift that border01:48:49
for a second01:48:50
so no wedge here you were saying it01:48:52
typically that would go all the way yeah01:48:54
yeah that should go all the way across01:48:57
in terms of but because this is made out01:49:01
of a roundish log you've still got these01:49:03
edgy but you've still got a good plant01:49:05
of timber on that it's again it's it's01:49:09
what we're finding the timber that's01:49:11
just an old bit of ash that's been lying01:49:13
around so no you mention something that01:49:15
I thought it's important to get us on01:49:17
camera an option for making the wedge01:49:19
underneath yeah what we've got is as I01:49:22
say that's made out of one big lump of01:49:24
timber01:49:25
and for those people who may not be able01:49:27
to find big round timber and are gonna01:49:30
bide lumber that's already milled01:49:32
material so you could have a plank for01:49:34
the seat the lakes could be made out of01:49:37
larger pieces of mill timber the other01:49:41
thing is is that the wedge you could01:49:43
actually make out of the plank as well01:49:45
so this is just some broken off cuts of01:49:48
timber and we could then basically mark01:49:51
up the the the style of the wedge and01:49:55
probably four maybe five pieces could be01:49:58
bolted together I went through the same01:50:01
shape and then that could be your wedge01:50:03
underneath so you haven't actually got01:50:05
to go created a massive wedge out of one01:50:08
big lump of timber perfect so Neil we01:50:14
move on to the next phase01:50:16
and so obviously going to be doing some01:50:18
turning now to do the last of the pieces01:50:20
get on the pole with you yeah on the01:50:22
pole oh did you want to talk about the01:50:23
pieces then that we need to if we refer01:50:26
to the this older version that's been01:50:28
around a while now01:50:29
you can see there's a frame that sits01:50:31
over the whole of the body and what we01:50:34
have is the is the top piece here which01:50:37
will clamp onto the timber and it's your01:50:41
feet that pushes out onto away from01:50:45
where you're sitting and that plants01:50:47
here on the pivot point we've got a01:50:50
handle here which is freely taken out01:50:52
we've also got a top piece and with what01:50:56
piece here now what we're gonna be doing01:50:58
slightly different this has got two pins01:51:00
we're gonna actually be putting a pin at01:51:02
an angle straight away through so we can01:51:06
have the piece of timber on either side01:51:08
of that it's just the way that I do on01:51:11
mine because it really does actually01:51:12
anchor the plank onto the or the ramp01:51:15
onto the onto the body of the Jay horse01:51:18
so if we can have a look at that with01:51:22
the body of yours which is a six inches01:51:25
so we know that the piece is here and01:51:27
the bottom have got to be six inches in01:51:29
the middle there'll be about two inches01:51:32
in thickness to create a good solid01:51:36
piece and then off these will be two01:51:38
ears or Tenon's that will sit through01:51:41
the frame of the shape horse frame top01:51:46
and bottom and and there'll be different01:51:50
lengths but obviously longer at the01:51:52
bottom to get your feet on and at the01:51:53
top there'll be reasonably short all01:51:56
this will be held together by wooden01:52:00
pins or in this case a very dry oak you01:52:03
can see they just go on the top on the01:52:05
old example the these have broken off01:52:09
and they probably just been originally01:52:11
were held in by a pin there you can see01:52:13
a wooden pin which is broken and then01:52:16
somebody's just done a really temporary01:52:17
vers repair on that which isn't very01:52:20
good what we'll be doing is coming01:52:22
through from the side here so it's held01:52:26
in really tight and we can pull the pins01:52:29
out at any point so as a recap them so01:52:34
we've got the the top piece which is01:52:36
what comes to the the actual objects in01:52:38
place that you're gonna be using a sort01:52:42
of pin which is the fulcrum of the frame01:52:44
suck through the body and then that the01:52:46
bottom piece will be a piece for01:52:49
arresting both our feet on which is01:52:51
gonna act as the trettel very and in01:52:53
terms up from the side view you're doing01:52:54
adjustment holes yeah so the top one01:52:56
will have one one or two holes there for01:52:59
adjusting the height of the size of the01:53:02
timber that we've got there's also01:53:04
another three holes here which you'll be01:53:06
used to adjusting the height again and01:53:10
also if you want a younger person to use01:53:13
your shade horse you can put more holes01:53:15
at the bottom that's why these pins are01:53:17
most important to the other take apart01:53:18
so you can adjust the whole frame to01:53:20
suit the individual who has sat on it01:53:23
the other thing is we're going to be01:53:25
doing this pin and it can cease coming01:53:26
at an angle into the body of the shave01:53:29
horse and that's when you01:53:31
applying pressure by pushing your feet01:53:35
away with the frame and obviously the01:53:38
top is clamping down onto the ramp what01:53:43
happens is this wants to force upwards01:53:45
to plank here so but if you put this in01:53:48
at an angle into the body that resists01:53:51
any movement interested okay and then01:53:55
the final one in the middle here you've01:53:56
got two adjustment holes as well yes01:53:58
again again for the site or a height of01:54:01
the individual you can adjust the frame01:54:04
forward or backwards depending on so01:54:07
you've got height movement for the feet01:54:10
length the leg also for the length and01:54:12
knees to move it away and also for the01:54:15
height change for the size of timber so01:54:18
there's a lot of adjustments can be made01:54:19
with this to fit most people so the way01:54:22
you've essentially done it's just like01:54:23
you said you've got the ability to01:54:24
adjust quite significantly and also for01:54:26
its impact on them as well yes that's01:54:29
it's a wall this can be taken apart legs01:54:30
can come out the ramp can come apart the01:54:34
frame can come apart and all this can go01:54:35
into the back of the vehicle are01:54:37
inessential perfect okay so those who01:54:40
want to go off to meets or whatever can01:54:42
take their own frames their own shame01:54:45
horses with01:54:49
so now in order to make the components01:54:51
we're going to be utilizing the timber01:54:52
that we cleaved off from before then we01:54:55
wash these sort of off cuts will get01:54:59
used up if it doesn't get used up for01:55:02
the components you would have got used01:55:04
up for firewood obviously needs a bit of01:55:06
air drying before that happens and all01:55:08
the shavings will get used up as well01:55:10
different small fires that we use on01:55:14
site so what going to do is we're going01:55:17
to split this up into component parts01:55:19
bearing in mind we've just said about01:55:21
the three main parts of the frame which01:55:25
is the the top piece the the fulcrum or01:55:28
handle piece and then they wear the feet01:55:30
fit so I'm going to try and get all01:55:32
three of those out of this one piece so01:55:34
using the throw again and the more this01:55:39
off so once again from the middle ityou01:55:44
from the core yeah just taking out the01:55:47
the pit line really cause you don't want01:55:50
that in any of your timber and will work01:55:55
probably the handle out of this piece01:55:57
and then we'll split this in a certain01:55:59
way where we'll get both the the top01:56:02
part and the bottom part of the frame01:56:06
that that will be for the handle and01:56:10
then I'm just going to try Noren take01:56:13
this to get the best as we can out of it01:56:17
looking at it we've got quite a thicker01:56:19
piece at the bottom but I'm just01:56:22
noticing we've got quite a crack in01:56:23
there so we may only get the one piece01:56:25
out of this see how we go okay get more01:56:30
on it so let's just hit that again01:56:41
knocking the bill down turning it right01:56:55
yeah and you see where that's followed01:56:57
through almost gone through the crack01:56:59
there is another one just there which01:57:00
I'm going to have to try and take out01:57:02
but I've got quite a big chunky piece01:57:06
and they just still get what I want out01:57:08
of that a lot of Acts work I think we'll01:57:12
get it off okay okay so what we're gonna01:57:17
do is there showed early on about using01:57:20
the axe work for the legs and it's a01:57:22
similar process now we're just going to01:57:23
make up the parts that we need this is01:57:26
going to be far longer than we actually01:57:27
need so I'll be cutting this down a bit01:57:38
what I'm gonna try and do is just square01:57:40
it up into a a billet of a square shape01:57:45
rather than before I round it01:57:47
just want to get making looking they're01:57:51
the right sort of size so what are you01:57:57
making around Pierce's you I neither01:57:58
want to get a square first01:58:00
well dimensions base it just gives you01:58:02
something to work to any mind all the01:58:05
Bark's got to come off as well and I can01:58:08
give you a false perspective as other01:58:09
timber we can start to see we've01:58:11
actually got it slightly elongated and I01:58:14
want to remove that one side of that01:58:21
okay so now I've got a square shape and01:58:25
it just gives me a reference point to01:58:27
work too and choking up the axe right up01:58:32
to the head and I'm doing these01:58:34
feathering cuts and then that'll just01:58:37
ease and what I'm looking for is making01:58:40
sure I've got a fairly straight sided01:58:51
again ever mindful about safety going to01:58:55
stand to the left of where the the axe01:58:57
line is in this case because on the01:59:00
right under the shop alright so now you01:59:04
can see there's a bit of a bow on here01:59:06
got this reasonably straight here I'm01:59:09
now going to try get this looking a bit01:59:12
more square shapes01:59:22
so you've got this pretty pretty square01:59:24
now at you though yeah but what I've01:59:26
done is a it was quite an irregular01:59:28
piece of timber if you can see where01:59:30
it's come from and I've just tried to01:59:32
follow the grain to get get it nice and01:59:34
straight so although it's squared off01:59:37
I'm gonna try and make this now into01:59:39
moral round ability by taking off the01:59:41
corners always keeping the axe head02:00:09
vertical it's angling the Tim not the02:00:12
acts that way the axe will work for you02:00:17
and not to put more pressure on your02:00:19
wrists if you start accessing over here02:00:23
he's not getting any control02:00:31
okay so although that's quite a rough02:00:35
bill it will be a little bit more off02:00:39
the ones to either think so essentially02:00:46
you've gone from obviously a very02:00:48
irregular page to a rough square to ten02:00:51
taking the size and making it a little02:00:52
bit more round yeah that's about it02:00:55
isn't it ideally what you'll end up is02:00:57
the octagonal shape02:01:03
so from there I'll end up doing is so02:01:20
now were the shape or for you know just02:01:21
thought you know trying to make it more02:01:22
round or you know we're just trying to02:01:24
make it more into a rounder shape what02:01:26
I'm also trying to do is remove all the02:01:28
axe cuts so we don't want any of those02:01:31
in the timber itself you get a bit of a02:01:33
spot like that twist okay just pulls it02:01:37
off see there's some axe cops in there02:01:42
getting rid of those tax cuts here pull02:01:46
off and then he oversees where the02:01:52
remove that we're just trying to get it02:01:56
into a rounder shape let's ensure all02:01:57
the experts are off though see he's got02:02:01
an eight sided billet that's that one02:02:04
end now that there's a template I can02:02:07
turn it over work on this end02:02:12
[Music]02:02:27
[Music]02:02:59
you think it's a pretty healthy nice and02:03:04
fresh now for all those who've got to02:03:09
either the storm cat or kelly kettle or02:03:11
Gilly kettle these are great for that so02:03:14
you can dry these out and just feed them02:03:16
in burn beautifully so all it all gets02:03:18
used I think I'll be happy enough with02:03:30
you've got a fairly round billet it's02:03:33
still a little bit in the middle say02:03:36
that off02:03:39
they were just trying to make it nice02:03:41
and straight when we turn it just take02:03:46
off the bits of the year that is gonna02:03:54
be a reasonable we're not gonna need it02:03:55
there look full length of this is just02:03:57
that what was left over from the timber02:03:58
so what I'll probably do is just cut it02:04:01
a little bit oversized no bearing in02:04:03
mind we've got to do six inches for the02:04:05
middle which is going to sit on the body02:04:06
and then we've got to leave the ear02:04:09
which is an inch and a half either side02:04:10
and then a bit more for the top piece02:04:13
the bottom foot pace will be even wider02:04:16
so we can get a good foot on either side02:04:18
of it so that will probably be okay from02:04:20
the bottom area02:04:22
I'll turn that and then we'll we'll make02:04:26
some more so that's the one piece so02:04:31
Neil now that obviously we've roughed02:04:33
out the the pieces yeah so see now we02:04:35
want to turn them on a polo to kind of02:04:38
make them rather obvious into the shape02:04:40
that we need I'm joy doing a quick02:04:41
discussion around the polos itself well02:04:44
basically it comprises of four main02:04:48
parts there's the pole itself which in02:04:52
this case goes beyond the fence and so02:04:55
we also have the a-frame which acts as a02:04:58
fulcrum the treble the pole is about 1802:05:10
feet length made entry of an ash tree02:05:15
and that's allowed to dry for six months02:05:19
remove all use right the next part will02:05:23
be the main body of the lathe itself02:05:26
we've got two a frames and with a bed02:05:30
attached double bed02:05:31
we've also then got two pockets and02:05:34
people who agree electric turn you will02:05:36
know them as a headstock and tailstock02:05:38
but they're called puppets in Greenwood02:05:40
turning and what we've got there also in02:05:43
between those is a tool rest which in02:05:45
this case is made from a piece of oak02:05:48
the headstock has a handle on it you02:05:52
don't necessarily need that both the02:05:54
puppets are held on by wedges underneath02:05:57
the bed so that locks it down into the02:06:00
and they're movable to the size of the02:06:03
template it's only interesting yeah the02:06:05
other final part is the obviously the02:06:07
treble which we set on this has a02:06:10
movable head so we don't move the string02:06:14
across with it yeah right gotcha02:06:16
come on side of the other and basically02:06:20
where it's an active you the individual02:06:24
creating the power and you're working in02:06:26
tandem with the spring02:06:27
of the cold but I press down the pole02:06:31
comes down and as I release my foot the02:06:34
pole takes over and brings the string02:06:36
back up so it's this act you know this02:06:41
is why this is called a reciprocating02:06:42
lathe mm-hmm so it's the actual piece02:06:45
turns forward and back forward and back02:06:48
now if we start to introduce a tool the02:06:51
first tool what I'll be using is this02:06:53
roughing gauge now this is a very old02:06:56
blacksmith made one we fit well I bought02:06:59
this at a car boot sale it was covered02:07:02
in paint not ground very well and I02:07:05
ripped brought it back into use nice02:07:07
socketed tool works beautifully for what02:07:13
I want I knew instantly when I saw it02:07:15
what it was02:07:16
mmm-hmm just nice to use so we'll02:07:18
introduce the tool I've done a little02:07:19
bit to test it so how we work this is I02:07:23
put my thumb underneath the tool the02:07:25
four fingers across the top and my hand02:07:27
is resting on the tool rest so just be02:07:31
aware of the treadle moving around said02:07:33
so and the pole what I'm going to be02:07:36
doing is I'm going to move the treadle02:07:39
and see the forward emotion backwards02:07:42
and I'm going to introduce the tool and02:07:44
I push down the tool goes in as I lift02:07:47
all comes back because this timber is02:07:58
slight I'm just gonna try and take the02:08:03
high spots off here there's a hot spot02:08:05
you see that really digging it out02:08:10
there's nothing being turned there who's02:08:12
got a bit of a bow in it02:08:19
we'll show you again in the moment how02:08:22
to set up the the piece you're turning02:08:25
in between profits what we're doing here02:08:37
is we're actually turning the piece it's02:08:43
going to go down at the bottom of rain02:08:45
so what we could end up is with it put a02:08:50
pick piece in the middle and two inch02:08:52
sentence or it could be one of the02:08:55
half-inch down there we've got a fairly02:09:01
round piece there rough date now there's02:09:04
two ways of doing this we can kick over02:09:07
the string and just carry on certainly02:09:16
taking off the high spots both got be02:09:27
mindful where that string is and02:09:30
returning don't know what the tool02:09:33
anyway hanger the string you can see02:09:40
we're turning out Sycamore he gets a02:09:42
really nice ribbon off because that is02:09:53
the ring porous tree see there's a lot02:09:56
of grain that you can see in the timber02:09:57
as we've seen before Sycamore so diffuse02:10:05
Taurus timber and it actually comes off02:10:08
the tree a lot nicer when turning so02:10:11
we've got a few little flats here and02:10:14
they're not too bothered by those02:10:15
because they're going to get turned off02:10:17
so the next tool that we would use just02:10:20
bring that over to the left again next02:10:24
tool would use02:10:26
is my tool I had made by Nic Westerman02:10:31
and this is a combination of a flat02:10:37
turning chisel and a skew chisel you can02:10:41
see this is an older version based on a02:10:43
picture I saw from a medieval painting02:10:45
and what we have also is a more modern02:10:50
version where you've got a flat two inch02:10:52
blade and a skew chisel and I can do all02:10:55
that with one but this is quite a02:10:57
fearsome tool so you've got to really02:11:00
hold it because again they'll just pop02:11:03
those away right because we get the the02:11:09
the tool rest even closer you can see I02:11:12
can now do the same again hold it and02:11:14
what I'm doing I'm just going to smooth02:11:17
off all those rough edges first getting02:11:25
it smooth don't know what you want to02:11:37
talk through the way you can be working02:11:39
through this site yes what we did02:11:42
previously is we've now measured this02:11:46
down to one and a quarter inch now this02:11:47
is where the foot part of the frame will02:11:51
be so my left foot would go here my02:11:53
right foots gonna go there this is the02:11:55
spacer which is the same size or just02:11:58
slightly larger than the body of the02:11:59
shave horse so the body of the Chavous02:12:02
is six inches this is six and a quarter02:12:04
so that makes the sure that the frame02:12:06
doesn't squeeze up on the just the02:12:11
message quickly we did this part off02:12:13
camera because Neil just basically easy02:12:15
just check everything's working with the02:12:17
Polo so we're now going to show on02:12:18
camera you start here which is exactly02:12:20
the same process yeah so what we're02:12:22
gonna do getting back to the roughing02:12:24
gauge I'm now going to02:12:59
so I'm just going to change tools now go02:13:03
back to my so the flat edge or straight02:13:09
edge and a skew chisel combined you can02:13:12
see I'm not far off inch and a quarter02:13:14
and width so we're going to take this02:13:17
end down first there's a matter of02:13:21
cutting in with the point of the skew a02:13:28
little bit of curving up I just want to02:13:40
check what size you've got we're just02:13:42
over the size so family we've got to be02:13:48
drilling it an inch and a quarter and I02:13:52
did because this is still green remember02:13:54
and we're using green timber odds there02:13:57
is going to be a bit of movement when it02:13:58
dries but because we're going to lock it02:14:00
in within I'm not too bothered about02:14:02
that and this is a saw that we're using02:14:08
ideally you'd probably just turn all02:14:10
these and and and let them to dry and02:14:14
then you could refit the Tenon's to suit02:14:18
so now I've got that end nicely sorted02:14:21
on just not come out soon02:14:31
we're just going to check that's fine a02:14:34
little bit tight there okay that's it02:14:46
I'm good to go just making it a little02:15:01
bit tight on that end where it's going02:15:02
the frames gonna come up so it'll just02:15:04
tighten up to it all right so that's02:15:07
that's really it for that piece no undo02:15:11
this and we'll take that off02:15:15
so that's your your first piece made02:15:18
which is going to sit in the bottom of02:15:20
the frames you have a look at the old02:15:21
one there that's where that's gonna go02:15:24
right we can rework this we can put a02:15:27
few ridges on here so that your feet02:15:30
will grip that so it doesn't slip off so02:15:32
there's lots of little additions we can02:15:33
do to that but that's primarily the02:15:35
piece of timber made so the next thing02:15:37
is gonna I'm going to make the top and02:15:39
then the hand wall here for the the02:15:41
fulcrum so it's really just making02:15:44
another one of those but the the end02:15:46
pieces will be an inch not inch and a02:15:48
quarter the what I'm gonna do see from02:15:53
this other end we've just done off02:15:54
camera we've got a few ridges on here02:15:56
well that'll just act as a bit of a grip02:15:58
for our feet and I'm gonna do the same02:16:00
this end maybe three-quarters of an inch02:16:09
mark02:16:18
burning minds we're gonna have the frame02:16:20
there so we don't need to go any further02:16:21
the faster and just come the opposite02:16:25
way so that gives us a yeah moving in02:16:31
there just a kid you do not let's get02:16:39
the fur off yeah it's just just cutting02:16:44
one side any of these Theon just02:16:46
altering the tool history from one side02:16:48
to the other02:16:57
it's just taking out the worst of it02:17:00
then what I'm going to do now just pick02:17:02
up a few shavings in my hands and then02:17:07
act like nature sandpaper okay that's it02:17:23
so moving on to next piece just very02:17:25
quickly show how you actually adjust02:17:27
these yeah we can see now the this next02:17:29
piece is a lot shorter so what I have to02:17:32
do is adjust the puppets and below there02:17:35
is some wedges that hold the puppets02:17:36
down to the bed just a matter of tucking02:17:38
around the back moving those out and02:17:43
then adjusting like a poppet so that we02:17:47
can get just read which I will just undo02:17:53
that enough to make sure that we've got02:17:55
plenty space and there's just a matter02:17:58
of not amazing really tight to make sure02:18:02
that the puppets are down and locks02:18:04
solid02:18:12
just make sure you've got enough room02:18:14
there brilliant and then again with our02:18:19
trusty pencil and a mark out the middle02:18:26
on both ends and getting the actual spur02:18:36
on the poppet on that pencil mark why02:18:39
not in I'm not going to go right home02:18:42
because I want to do just pull the tool02:18:46
rest back and I just want to see how02:18:47
that runs on the lathe which is great02:18:53
but this is going to be the top piece on02:18:57
this on the frame okay quite tight to02:19:18
adjust that so with the post a lot of02:19:21
Justin once it's once it's in place okay02:19:28
just this has to be quite rough on the02:19:31
top because over time yes it does get02:19:36
smooth to the pockets under pressure02:19:38
can't move backwards so what's the next02:19:42
step you've got these right yeah I've02:19:44
got some beeswax in my hand but I've02:19:45
also got some petroleum jelly as well02:19:49
which you can use as a lubricant just to02:19:51
pop put on the ends although this is02:19:54
green that's great but if you're doing a02:19:55
lot of turning on one piece eventually02:19:59
the moisture is removed out at the ends02:20:01
not the piece of timber it just because02:20:05
of the friction it really heats up and02:20:07
if you don't have any lubricant in there02:20:08
it squeals like Matt but actually is02:20:12
quite although this is quite freshly it02:20:14
is quite a dry timber so you can either02:20:16
use a little bit of beeswax shoved into02:20:19
it or02:20:21
petroleum jelly whatever is easiest for02:20:23
you to find I mean most pharmacies up02:20:26
this available blue all all of them so02:20:29
it's just a matter of putting a little02:20:30
bit on either end and that's that sorts02:20:33
that out now we've got that on I can02:20:36
actually add the string we've got two02:20:40
turns but to show a little bit about02:20:42
that because a lot of people get caught02:20:44
out by this so if you hold the string in02:20:46
your left hand02:20:47
imagine you're beating it the string or02:20:50
a drum and you hit it and you turn it02:20:52
away from you and then another one02:20:54
you turn it away so that actually sets02:20:57
it up right for when you're using the02:20:59
treadle another thing that you've got to02:21:04
be aware of is also that we've got this02:21:06
tight because this is under quite a lot02:21:08
of pressure if you don't have the it02:21:12
locked in tightly what can happen is02:21:14
this will break out and this piece of02:21:16
timber can fly quite a way okay yeah02:21:20
I've seen it happen at shows with other02:21:22
people they haven't got it done and bang02:21:24
it goes about ten foot into the crowd02:21:26
and that can be really dodgy so I'm02:21:31
gonna do is get set up and we're going02:21:34
to turn this oh you do bear in mind02:21:36
we've got to go back to the roughing02:21:39
gauge I'm just gonna make sure that this02:21:40
is all running okay and we're away again02:21:44
I'm gonna stop turning just see how it02:21:54
the as I'm pressing down the woods02:21:56
coming towards me and I'm actually02:21:58
introducing the tool into it and as I02:22:00
lift my foot I'm coming that's all away02:22:02
slightly so it doesn't rub the back of02:22:04
the tool because this is only carbon02:22:07
steel if you just held it there all the02:22:08
time02:22:09
see how I'm rubbing just rub a big gag02:22:11
in the back you don't want02:22:19
[Music]02:22:30
okay so this is the bottom of the frame02:22:34
maybe your feet are going to fit this is02:22:36
going to be the top one and we've got to02:22:39
make sure that the the to fit exactly02:22:42
the same on the frame that we just 1202:22:49
inches so I'm just going to mark the02:22:50
middle of six inches and then either02:22:52
side of that going to need 3 and 1/8 so02:22:59
that'll be 6 and 1/4 there that's 3 and02:23:02
1/8 there okay so these two ends will be02:23:06
the 1 inch Tenon's which will sit02:23:09
through the frame and get fixed I'll02:23:11
just poke out a little bit you can see02:23:13
that we took three marks yeah Center 3/802:23:18
that side 3/8 that side giving you 6 and02:23:20
1/4 it'll be the same as that piece on02:23:24
there ok although this is a lot longer02:23:27
bear in mind this is your feet sitting02:23:28
on here lined up02:23:48
marking out the initial basically you02:23:51
you're you didn't the initial marking02:23:53
space yeah get that sorted I'm now gonna02:23:56
use the roughing gouge again to get this02:24:01
down a little bit okay02:24:32
so what I'm gonna do now02:25:05
you hear that squeaking means I need to02:25:09
get a bit more of a loser now you don't02:25:19
necessarily have to take it off just get02:25:24
your finger in dab it into their squeaks02:25:31
gum so just checking it with a way of an02:25:36
inch yet so how we lookin now yeah02:25:42
that's good02:25:43
that's just nice and tight that'll fit02:25:46
into the one inch hole that we're gonna02:25:48
drill with the bracing bit and now02:25:51
basically just repeating the other side02:25:52
okay I'm gonna do the other side here02:25:57
great so we're looking good so we've02:25:59
just simply repeated the same on the02:26:01
other side yeah there's been a bit of a02:26:04
fault where where I'll just caught it02:26:05
what happens this is what happens to be02:26:07
reciprocating lines if you don't control02:26:08
the tool runs away with it just see the02:26:12
little bit of a about to take off02:26:13
that's not gonna affect what we do02:26:15
that's just bad workmanship on my part02:26:17
okay so that's the top taste this is now02:26:27
the top part the handle yeah this is a02:26:29
handy going it this will be where02:26:31
everything comes up this the bar just02:26:41
rubbing on the02:26:47
taking off the high spots see there's02:26:58
still a flap there you know it high spot02:27:01
they're taking all that side off and02:27:03
we've got quite a bit so we were just02:27:16
discussing something Neal yeah so02:27:19
obviously this is going in like the02:27:21
middle session so this attaches it to02:27:22
the bench doesn't it so this is your02:27:24
fulcrum the handle be made up this end02:27:27
this is the tenon02:27:28
that's gonna go all the way through the02:27:29
body and frame so just to kind of so02:27:32
this is just a recap this is this middle02:27:34
one here yeah guys proof are you a02:27:37
measure something obviously we working02:27:38
with Greenwood so you were talking about02:27:40
the width of it yeah the body is gonna02:27:42
have a an inch hole drilled through it02:27:44
which is fine but if you make the this02:27:48
an inch the the handle that's the body02:27:51
starts to shrink and dry it's gonna02:27:53
tighten up and you don't want an inch02:27:57
tenon going into an inch hole because02:27:59
it'll dry and shrink so when you take it02:28:01
home these need to be dried separately02:28:04
and if the tenon hole sorry if the02:28:08
mortise hole shrinks up you can actually02:28:10
put in another autist through it and02:28:12
just open it up again so the point being02:28:14
is that everything's that are dry so if02:28:16
I leave this inside the actual mortise02:28:18
yep there's a ton of concrete could just02:28:20
say it's up place indeed so this needs02:28:22
to be slightly smaller anyway but I'm02:28:24
gonna make this a round about 7/8 of an02:28:26
inch as we compare to the mortise hole02:28:28
which is going to be an inch so it's it02:28:30
rattles through and it'll be nice and02:28:32
smooth at the end of the day it'll hold02:28:34
and and create a good fault fulcrum so02:28:38
what I'm gonna do now is just turn it02:28:40
round and there to do the other end look02:28:43
I'll see what that's gonna be good for02:28:45
you02:28:55
long as that's bigger and thicker than02:28:57
the the actual Senate that's okay but02:29:01
onon particularly anybody's a little bit02:29:03
of a clap which you take off that'll be02:29:05
the size of the handle you can see02:29:07
there's the mark that I've still got02:29:09
which I'm still going to just put a02:29:14
reference point in there okay all this02:29:23
will come off they'll just want to make sure that I've02:29:25
got enough for the handle right so I'm02:29:49
just going to try and take that with the02:30:05
engage02:30:24
now I'm gonna try and just get the 10 in02:30:30
the same weight which is about 7/8 inch02:30:36
so I'm coming up there it will start to02:30:39
feel and chatter so just okay and I'm02:30:59
just gonna put it02:31:16
[Music]02:32:04
[Music]02:32:13
see you're making fire around it all02:32:15
yeah it's just really so we got some02:32:22
into grab a hold up I'm just gonna be a02:32:28
[Applause]02:32:37
bit more of this end02:32:52
[Music]02:32:55
okay02:32:57
sorry I just rough that they all nature02:33:03
sound paper again we'll just burnished02:33:04
us02:33:13
[Music]02:33:15
you know let's just put a bit of a shine02:33:17
on it see on the edges is just catching02:33:20
it let's remove all those little birds02:33:25
so the last piece we're doing is the peg02:33:27
that's going to go in the ball and we're02:33:29
just doing one peg okay so I've got that02:33:38
set up again what I'm gonna do is just02:33:43
round it off before I put the round on02:33:47
the lights fading I could just catch in02:34:13
the right okay so what I got to do now02:34:17
is just remove all that let's just be a02:34:20
little knot on the end of that02:34:50
[Music]02:35:01
[Music]02:35:17
the cows you use it a very small yes02:35:20
spindle gauge it's basically gonna be so02:35:27
you can get your finger in there and got02:35:31
something to grab a hold off when you02:35:34
set it out just go and see she's gonna02:36:18
be an inch all the way down this spindle02:36:22
oh just want to make sure in a little02:36:23
bit so I'll get make sure we get it02:36:26
right at this end and then I can do02:36:27
follow the rest today so what I'm gonna02:36:33
do stop there now and I'm gonna turn it02:36:36
round and just put a bit an inch long02:36:39
across the hole yeah across the whole02:36:40
thing02:36:41
now I've got a02:36:45
nice surface to turn on there I should02:36:49
run a little bit better okay as you you02:37:06
know which you'll grab hold of something02:37:08
tight02:37:09
that's waggling they're coming up too02:37:12
tight so you're done in taper right a02:37:14
bottom so yeah so we old slide in and02:37:17
anything tap it home02:37:18
perfect I think actually might just need02:37:21
a little bit off there I'm just gonna do02:37:23
that the say I think we the puppets are02:37:39
a little bit out on this old light look02:37:49
it's just gonna be locked solid that's02:37:54
it so that's all four bits done then this02:37:57
is gonna be burnished with the shape02:37:58
yeah we can do that as well02:38:04
the nature sound paper just to finish02:38:07
off02:38:11
see that actual list spindle is quite02:38:14
hot move that across string over there02:38:22
do that just smooth it off so nil I just02:38:38
wanted to touch on a option of doing the02:38:42
the Tenon's yeah for those that don't02:38:45
have a Polish so what is the kind of02:38:49
alternative they can well you could get02:38:51
the bill it down to the simple to almost02:38:53
the right size and they're not what I've02:38:55
set up here is a brace and bit all right02:38:58
the brace is really just to mark the end02:39:02
of the or billet I'm going through much02:39:05
more than that okay and that gives you a02:39:09
rough mark for an inch so then what I02:39:15
can do is I can then draw knife this02:39:17
down quite happily to that mark and that02:39:22
will give you your tenant bear in mind02:39:24
you've got to have a thick bit up here02:39:25
so you may want to put a saw cut or a02:39:28
mark pencil mark around it and you're02:39:30
just working going parallel to that now02:39:37
okay like I said before do the square02:39:40
cut02:39:44
just tell them this down to the right02:39:46
size because that little bits come out02:39:48
you see that mm-hmm so you know you're02:39:49
there turn it just there on that bit02:40:04
turn it and we're just there so now02:40:16
we've got four size which are just well02:40:18
one more so I'm just going to bring that02:40:20
down a little bit further there we are02:40:24
there the four points north north south02:40:28
east west or if you want to call it02:40:29
12 o'clock 3 o'clock 6 o'clock 9 o'clock02:40:32
whatever that's fine and then we're02:40:35
going to turn it on its edge and we're02:40:36
just going to bring down the corners02:40:39
similarly and that that end yeah this is02:40:50
where you've got to start being a little02:40:51
bit careful what you take off they'd02:41:00
almost don't and then it can be really02:41:03
gentle about that's not going to be far02:41:08
off a perfect circle and would you take02:41:11
the ridges off you can see what what02:41:15
I've done is I'm just down to that cut02:41:18
where this than 30 bits that's got to02:41:19
come off02:41:24
that's not bad for its own um is it no02:41:28
there is another way of doing that as02:41:29
well which I'll show you with another02:41:31
tool look what I've got set up here is a02:41:37
Veritas tenon cutter they might leave02:41:40
Ally tools02:41:42
there is also an adapter you can get02:41:43
which fits into the end of the brace02:41:45
it's a bit like the brace bit see they02:41:48
fo put the same tool so this is quite a02:41:51
good setup for someone who wants to just02:41:52
start out making Tenon's you know sort02:41:57
of post and wrong stools and things like02:41:59
that so what I can do here although I'm02:42:01
just stuck on the shade horse doing this02:42:03
I did it viewing a bench you see I'm02:42:07
just getting it in making sure that the02:42:09
the body of the tenon cutter the adapter02:42:13
and the body of the brace are all in the02:42:16
line with the timber that you've got so02:42:19
that's that way there is a little thing02:42:25
here that's going to give you a level02:42:27
but I wouldn't even look at that02:42:29
obviously wouldn't put those on because02:42:31
they're a little bit awkward really so02:42:33
there's that I'm looking down here so02:42:37
it's dead in line also you need to be02:42:40
aware of the up-and-down position as02:42:42
well and see that so it's not only left02:42:45
and right but up and down and you've got02:42:46
to get that essentially on there what02:42:48
I'm doing is on pressing day02:42:51
[Music]02:43:08
so you get these shavings when you get a02:43:11
tenant have a look at the lieutenant I02:43:14
did with the wall end got some facets on02:43:18
this one has still got a a roughish edge02:43:21
to it depending on how good you are with02:43:23
the tool but it's a little bit rounder02:43:25
so but they both work adequately so Neil02:43:31
the four components are done then yeah02:43:33
so basically we've got the foot part of02:43:36
the frame made there's the handle that's02:43:39
gonna be the fulcrum that the frame will02:43:41
twist on and then we've got the the02:43:43
upper part which is going to be the02:43:44
clamping mechanism at the top end of the02:43:46
frame and the fourth part that we turned02:43:49
was the basically the pin that's going02:43:52
to keep the the ramp or the plank that02:43:57
we're going to be clamping to and that02:43:58
just keeps that in position so there's02:44:00
some noise obviously you've shown all02:44:02
this on the pod but I just just02:44:03
demonstrated there are other techniques02:44:04
yeah but yeah you could have used02:44:06
rounder planes on it there are all sorts02:44:10
of stale engines and rounder planes that02:44:12
will do these one each tenon cutters and02:44:15
Tenon's I should say and you can get02:44:18
them at different shapes this one's one02:44:20
and a quarter there are others at other02:44:22
different sizes so it's well worth02:44:25
investing if you can get a pole lathe02:44:27
great but there are other means of02:44:29
working perfect so now we onto the site02:44:35
arms now the first thing you will do is02:44:37
you said you were trimming off to soccer02:44:39
size base yeah we're gonna keep it at02:44:40
around 37 and a half inches for this02:44:43
particular Heights because you've got a02:44:45
good long leg on this and we02:44:47
want to make it long enough for you and02:44:49
your friends to be able to use and I'm02:44:52
sure you can have a lot taller you know02:44:54
people of you and maybe the recent02:44:55
that's it I've seen some friends notice02:44:57
it so it'll be interchangeable from02:45:01
different heights of people so we'll02:45:03
keep it around about 37 art but we're02:45:04
going to trim off this dead not be so no02:45:13
just before obviously we draw the holes02:45:15
into the side arms so obviously we're02:45:17
just looking at the the measurements how02:45:20
far we're gonna you know place the holes02:45:21
and whatnot see just wanna talk through02:45:23
what we've decided on this particular02:45:24
length well with this one because we02:45:26
know the whole length of the arm is02:45:28
around about 37 inches we're going to02:45:32
allow a good inch and a half below the02:45:34
bottom of the hole so between the bottom02:45:37
hole and the bottom of there are going02:45:39
to allow a good inch and a half so it02:45:40
doesn't break out then we're going to do02:45:42
an inch and a quarter hole then between02:45:45
there and the first hole we're going to02:45:48
do 20 inches mm-hmm okay so that will be02:45:51
the first hole for the Frog Chrome and02:45:53
then we're going to do incrementally in02:45:55
a two inch spaces three holes and then02:45:58
inch and that's an inch tenant okay and02:46:01
then between the middle hole and the top02:46:03
one we're going to do a nine inch gap02:46:05
and that should be adjustable enough for02:46:09
what your needs are and just to kind of02:46:11
fight those you're a bit pedantic02:46:13
weirdos the two holes on the bottom with02:46:15
the foot just decides right now we're02:46:16
gonna do just the one yeah just the one02:46:18
I mean you can always add that in a02:46:20
later date yeah to suit your needs but02:46:25
all these adjustments are adjustable for02:46:28
most people you know you can add it02:46:29
shrink it bigger02:46:30
whatever - suit yourself02:46:35
so no you just realize you want to do02:46:37
quat or one quicker amendment you need02:46:39
to clamp yes to the very top bit and02:46:41
what we're going to do is we're going to02:46:42
put our just a little flat on it you can02:46:45
put a v-shape chip in it as well to02:46:47
clamp the timber it's almost the02:47:00
reasoning behind this it actually clamps02:47:04
the timber a little bit better edge see02:47:13
you have a look you've got a nice flat02:47:16
edge now rather than a rounded edge so02:47:22
that will actually sit and grasp a02:47:24
little bit more what you can also do is02:47:26
we'll put a little V cut into there so02:47:29
that will sit on a around tenon and grab02:47:32
it a little bit more as well cool so if02:47:34
you've got a larger flatter piece like02:47:37
your spatula or something that will grab02:47:38
it on the flat if you've got a little02:47:40
round end or a tenon that you're you're02:47:43
trying to and that will grab that as02:47:45
well so these little additions which is02:47:49
going to make your shape horse a lot02:47:50
safer and easier to use coal shall we02:47:54
add that onlin yeah so I just need sit02:48:01
[Music]02:48:05
alright okay so what I'm gonna do is on02:48:07
stand up and I'm gonna cut this02:48:15
[Laughter]02:48:21
so you literate for sewing of agency02:48:24
yeah that's all it is just to be in02:48:39
there as well and that will sit and grab02:48:42
hold of any round 10 and like that okay02:48:48
so Neil we've marked off the holster02:48:51
this is the bottom one for the it's02:48:52
gonna be the inch and a quarter mm-hmm02:48:55
that's for the foot part of the frame02:49:00
treadle then we've got three holes and02:49:03
these are set at now two and a half02:49:05
inches not the two inches that we02:49:06
discussed I think in the appropriately02:49:09
that older one was made for children02:49:14
particular and I think we need to just02:49:16
up these a little bit so these are two02:49:18
and a half inches between you see the02:49:21
original markings have been burned them02:49:22
up a bit and then between the middle and02:49:25
that that one is nine inches but I've02:49:26
also added a second hole just in case we02:49:30
need to use that as well it's fine it02:49:34
just gives you the loads of options then02:49:35
some terms of so we citizen we're gonna02:49:38
do a dry fit yeah with one hole on the02:49:40
Internet then just go just adjusted to02:49:43
suit so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna02:49:46
do I've got the tomb we've got the inch02:49:51
and a quarter and the inch and I'm gonna02:49:53
do the the02:49:57
the inch and a quarter so I'm gonna I've02:50:01
clamped it together and we're just going02:50:03
to go straight through the lot okay so02:50:10
but I'm just eyeing this in this drill02:50:13
needs to be vertical to the top of the02:50:15
timber okay so it's not over there or02:50:18
not it and there it's not that oil that02:50:19
way it's got to be dead vertical as02:50:21
blessed as you can get it I can just get02:50:25
that in and we can use a level sorry a02:50:31
square to give us a rough idea if that's02:50:37
the right twice and that's pretty good02:50:39
not bad for a red wine is it that's 1102:50:46
so in future I should just stop you in02:50:48
my tool bag will check your stuff that02:50:50
support you up when I need you02:50:53
eventually you do get used to02:50:56
now the inch-and-a-quarter bit is quite02:51:02
a tough bit to overcome and this isn't a02:51:13
green symbol but it might one thing you02:51:17
got to be really careful with your the02:51:22
brace bit is making sure that everything02:51:25
is sharp said Neil the holes of thumb02:51:41
but you haven't gone all the way through02:51:42
no I said what we're going to do is02:51:44
we've we've drilled so far and the pin02:51:47
or the screw thread at the end of the02:51:50
auger02:51:51
there's just popped through so we'll02:51:53
turn this over now keep them both02:51:56
together and we can just see a little02:51:59
bit where the holes have got one two02:52:01
there's another one somewhere just about02:52:03
there and then the other one finally02:52:05
there so we haven't got to have that one02:52:08
in the way we've got that with you don't02:52:11
you see there partly done so what I'm02:52:14
going to do is just clamp that on there02:52:24
okay so one that one that one they're02:52:28
sitting just about see the holes poking02:52:31
through one and a quarter and they send02:52:36
so insured this is in order to perfect02:52:38
the break food just stop him break02:52:40
through so you get nice clean hole02:52:42
either side just so nil obviously the02:53:05
holes done in the side but is somewhat02:53:07
you want to do one quick little tweaking02:53:09
yeah this is just an addition he doesn't02:53:12
make that all any better but it it's02:53:14
just something that some Turner's do on02:53:17
there they would turn in it that's a bit02:53:19
of fun to see yeah no man makes fire so02:53:23
we're just using a steel wire on here02:53:26
and it was see from the smoke coming off02:53:28
it just burns in do another one02:53:32
lovely smell02:53:35
and they just create crates in there in02:53:37
addition to whatever you're turning on02:53:40
share legs hurt this is done a lot as02:53:43
well just to show off put the leg02:53:47
structure on things like a some Garden02:53:55
implements dippers and things like that02:53:57
the one inch increments or I usually02:54:01
denoted with the line like this and the02:54:07
other thing is is it it burns all those02:54:09
little fibers that may be sticking up02:54:11
inside of that anyway so you're getting02:54:13
rid of them02:54:14
there we are so nil we're going to do a02:54:20
dry run up week to make sure everything02:54:21
fits yep so we'll start with the foot02:54:25
part of it if it's okay I'm gonna pick02:54:29
the top bit in try and get the two02:54:35
together okay and then obviously this02:54:49
fits but whatever height you want then02:54:53
you travel to go okay and this all02:54:58
fulcrum on here so now we can then when02:55:03
we've drilled the hole we can do a bit02:55:05
of it they fit something where to the02:55:07
actual shape horse perfect sold me body02:55:11
now we're gonna go drill the holes yup02:55:12
yeah we are indeed we'll do that next02:55:14
perfect so no you're just marking off02:55:19
the holes now I actually sat down on02:55:22
this off-camera so you could do this02:55:24
properly but obviously you're sitting on02:55:25
it just to illustrate how you measured02:55:27
up where the holes are going to go yeah02:55:29
so you're sat on the saddle part and the02:55:31
first hole is normally six inches or 15002:55:36
millimeters from the front of your knee02:55:38
to the first hole Center and then we're02:55:41
going to do increments of two and a half02:55:42
so you may put three holes02:55:45
this and just want to put the thing when02:55:46
we sat down you told me to basically put02:55:48
my fine oh yeah to the edge job actually02:55:52
got a bit further because we've designed02:55:54
this for you this particular one and02:55:57
each one's made specifically for02:55:59
individual use but we're also trying to02:56:03
make it for a generic use most people02:56:05
are the similar height but that's the02:56:07
measurement that we'll be using is about02:56:08
six inches from the front of the knee to02:56:11
the first hole what we're going to do02:56:13
now is from the top we're going to mark02:56:15
down a square either side than the top02:56:22
based and normally what I do is we try02:56:26
and get the whole quite close to the top02:56:29
here so the center is probably going to02:56:31
be about an inch - that will leave you02:56:33
about half an inch of timber so this is02:56:35
gonna be an inch hole remember going02:56:36
through now we've got to be really02:56:39
careful with the drilling that it02:56:41
doesn't come up at an angle or go down02:56:43
at an angle he's got to be parallel to02:56:45
this surface on the top so everything02:56:48
taps on that so this is we're using02:56:50
squares and sites lines and somebody02:56:53
else helping if you can to do it's quite02:56:56
important perfect care and helping me02:56:58
with this particular section because02:57:01
you're on the camera so it's difficult02:57:04
but thank you Karen for helping out02:57:06
basically what's happening is we've got02:57:08
that line that we marked on it which is02:57:11
square to the top and what I'm going to02:57:14
do now is I want to drill a parallel02:57:17
mortise using the bracing bit going02:57:20
straight the way through I'm using the02:57:22
the line of this steel rule so I'll get02:57:26
a parallel measurement here and I'm also02:57:30
looking down that line as well and I'll02:57:33
keep the the brace of the order in line02:57:36
with that let's just start that off get02:57:39
that in place so I've got it locked I02:57:45
just want to check reasonably parallel02:57:48
and then I'm gonna go that's right02:57:52
this is where you gotta have courage of02:57:55
your convictions a little check yep so02:58:17
it's just poke for it's difficult to see02:58:18
on the camera we can just see the pin02:58:21
just there okay so I'm gonna withdrawal02:58:23
that right now bringing this watch swarf02:58:26
have got left in there the chips and I'm02:58:29
gonna come round the other side and this02:58:32
is once again to prevent the break-up02:58:34
just that breakout yeah and see that was02:58:37
quite an accurate drill what's the02:58:41
reason that you wouldn't just go02:58:42
straight through because it would just02:58:44
break out the fibers that's all it is02:58:49
yep following the hole back through the02:58:52
other way oh Sh you know any fibers02:58:55
we've got there yep waiting there now on02:59:00
this side we can set up a second one02:59:05
after going for a knot we've got three02:59:07
was this difficulty on camera bass just02:59:10
poking through nails alright so I'm just02:59:12
gonna withdraw that you know this Wharf02:59:17
would make I'll come around this side02:59:25
it's just off the line02:59:32
there we go there's actually just02:59:56
okay that can be done with a as I say03:00:02
this is a Jennings patent hmm brace and03:00:05
bit you could also be done with a scotch03:00:07
eye auger if you've got slightly odd a03:00:08
bit and bear in mind we've got this is03:00:11
six inches and you've probably got about03:00:13
eight inches worth a cutter mm-hmm to03:00:16
play with so just about get that's right03:00:24
I'll see the pins got to go down the03:00:26
bottom and this is probably a good03:00:28
example of taking my shoes off beating03:00:32
see I can then you can just put your03:00:34
hand on the bottom of their keyring just03:00:36
to hold it okay and I can just use that03:00:39
as a clap but that works like okay and03:00:44
just by adjusting the bat forward and03:00:49
back you can you've got some adjustment03:00:51
though you've also got adjustment in the03:00:52
hole so you can get some quite big bits03:00:53
of timber in here yeah03:00:55
bear in mind if it's it you know you03:00:58
won't want to be holding great big lumps03:00:59
but somewhere between three and four03:01:02
inches would be adequate that's just03:01:05
been holding that but oh yeah and that's03:01:07
without any pins holding it together03:01:10
that's just holding it like so so the03:01:13
next thing and final thing is we're just03:01:14
going to drill the pin that holds the03:01:18
plank and you see what I was saying03:01:19
about the pivoting point yeah so that03:01:26
pin that we've got to hold it down03:01:28
it's got to be drilled at an angle no03:01:30
that means doesn't happen so Neil we've03:01:36
clamped this on the board so are you03:01:41
looking obviously the yang going yeah so03:01:44
what what's gonna happen now is I've got03:01:46
to put this pin in now if I was to use03:01:50
this as the my datum point here is a03:01:53
level I can see I've got it at right03:01:56
angles now to the board well if I was to03:01:59
use that what's likely to happen is you03:02:00
press down on there this is like it's a03:02:02
fire or so we actually have to put this03:02:05
in it a bit of an angle okay like so03:02:07
okay and what that does is it acts03:02:10
when you press on there it locks in03:02:11
position it can't come out I'm just03:02:16
going to drill you can see where the leg03:02:18
runs up I'm just gonna drill the other03:02:20
side of that that's an angle there's no03:02:24
specific angle just make sure it's Oh03:02:26
more over than the 90 degrees from this03:02:31
here so it's probably adding like if you03:02:34
took a measurements probably about 11003:02:36
degrees from the from vertical from the03:02:41
base I should say okay so with right03:02:52
what I'm gonna do now is I'm just going03:02:55
to get myself into a position where I'm03:03:04
drilling a hole like so now I'm gonna03:03:08
get to the point where I can't go any03:03:10
further so I've already got the whole03:03:12
set mm-hmm03:03:13
I can take that off draw that out03:03:20
undo that take the plank off all right03:03:29
you just got the whole started and all03:03:37
been well just keep going03:03:41
and with this thing go all the way03:03:43
through here all the way through03:04:04
okay so the last and final piece we're03:04:07
going to push the plank back through and03:04:11
line up the holes for the peg I'll just03:04:18
give a gentle tap there that's it03:04:24
so that's locked so just have a check03:04:31
see I'm really pushing hard on that that03:04:35
plank doesn't doesn't pull up look at us03:04:43
there what a difference that's made huh03:04:44
yeah and that's why that angle is really03:04:48
important03:04:49
you've got to get that if you start03:04:51
drilling at 90 degrees it's likely to03:04:53
pop up and there we are that's really03:04:57
the shave horse made the only things on03:05:01
what we're going to do now is we're03:05:03
going to insure that this top piece is03:05:06
pegged nice and tight and so is the feet03:05:08
down below the handle obviously remains03:05:11
loose so we can move it about but that03:05:13
really is about it final touches we03:05:16
could round the ends off of the ears on03:05:19
the top and bottom just crazy so you03:05:22
don't catch your hand on any sharp edges03:05:23
but that's really the shape horse made03:05:31
so guys we've had to move into this03:05:34
amazing barn just across from the03:05:35
workshop but it is going absolutely03:05:38
pitch black outside03:05:40
it's impossible to film this is an03:05:42
incredible bond like that was good a03:05:46
detailed video of this location our03:05:47
later date so we're just on the last leg03:05:50
sound and we're looking at some pegs and03:05:53
mr. mates is carving out some oak pegs03:05:56
is that right yeah there's a bit of03:05:58
English oak AirDroid and then it's been03:06:01
brought in sizes properly well dry which03:06:04
is what we need really for this and03:06:06
what's going to attempt to make some03:06:09
pegs that are gonna fit03:06:12
[Music]03:06:13
yeah as I say that's just coming up03:06:16
quite nicely but speaking of in some way03:06:19
pointless about the lighting it's indoor03:06:21
lights it comes out very very different03:06:23
to the outside lighting but you have to03:06:26
make do so you've done a sample Peter03:06:30
- obviously test out the hole as you're03:06:32
carving it yeah so as I say you drill03:06:36
the hole the size that you want and03:06:37
we're just creating the pegs out a bit03:06:40
of square squared AirDroid timber and03:06:43
that really fits in nice and tight and03:06:46
then this will go through into here and03:06:49
just peg in it doesn't need to go all03:06:51
the way through idea if you had a peg03:06:54
that went all the way through you can03:06:55
tap it back out and that's the problem03:06:57
it becomes loose but if you drive it in03:06:59
it is only one way it can't be tapped03:07:02
out again you just have to twist it and03:07:03
pull it out so there is a function for03:07:08
not drilling all the way through okay03:07:47
okay now the same she just holds a03:07:51
picking persimmons yeah honey you can03:07:54
twist and pull over and adjust okay so03:07:59
there you go guys that is a wrap for03:08:01
this very comprehensive and northern03:08:03
tutorial on how to make a budget shape03:08:06
or meal I cannot thank you enough03:08:09
it's been a pleasure really slight03:08:12
really tight now you wouldn't believe it03:08:14
watching this video but this has been03:08:15
coordinate over the period three days so03:08:18
that's how much we've added condensed03:08:19
into this tutorial coincided with this03:08:22
move you will be building suit chambers03:08:25
is someone I've been building for the03:08:27
base count which will be shown at a03:08:29
later date so that's why I take an03:08:30
incredible amount of work and as we said03:08:33
in the beginning of this video this03:08:34
video is designed to teach you how to03:08:36
make that specifically the budget03:08:38
pattern of shape walls there are many03:08:40
stars our out there's many ways of doing03:08:42
it you see the combination in this video03:08:44
of these machine tools various hand03:08:46
tools etc the goal is is that you really03:08:49
kind of use what you've got to hand now03:08:51
obviously when you have my equipment you03:08:52
make certain jobs a hell of a lot easier03:08:54
but the idea is video is to take news03:08:56
vast experience and condense it down to03:08:59
show you little mini master classes03:09:01
throughout for example the parlay and03:09:03
drop using a draw knife etc etc so I03:09:07
hope you got some value something great03:09:09
on this video more importantly I hope03:09:11
you've got some inspiration to go maybe03:09:13
attempt yourself to just you know some03:09:15
kind of shame for yourself so no shame03:09:17
voice is a really useful piece of03:09:20
equipment oh you couldn't really wear green03:09:24
that is it it's one of the backbones of03:09:26
the the job Road yeah so it's just one03:09:28
low signal for quite chop now well03:09:30
thanks it is quite over here I've caught03:09:32
the amazing one but with it you know03:09:34
built under a second seat appreciates03:09:36
tuition and many many years of03:09:38
experience some really chop like I said03:09:40
the one that I've got for myself and03:09:41
you'd be seeing at the later date and03:09:43
we're actually sitting like here and now03:09:45
now a couple of things that kind of quit03:09:47
yet this was actually used primarily03:09:49
using green wood so what the others03:09:51
suggested that we actually taken apart03:09:53
with the green board was obviously03:09:54
that's got a shrimp is that correct03:09:56
well yeah I mean everything will fit03:09:59
back together again03:10:00
the the legs and everything at end with03:10:03
tapers on so they'll all fit back03:10:04
together shouldn't be a problem again03:10:08
all the the frame and everything is good03:10:10
to go yeah so that's what I'm gonna do03:10:12
when I get it home believe it's aired03:10:13
way outside covered up for about Martha03:10:16
Martin and obviously we're good to go03:10:17
and then making sure everything comes03:10:19
together that's it happy days man he's03:10:22
no shape always with price but just to03:10:24
reiterate that you could use planks03:10:27
longer as well obviously we've done03:10:36
things in a very kind of traditional way03:10:39
like using green wood etc but just use03:10:42
whatever you've got to have it this03:10:43
ought to show up on your DIY store even03:10:45
house or whatever there's no lighting03:10:47
wrong camp this is the key thing that we03:10:49
need to get across just because nearly03:10:51
funding in a particular way doesn't mean03:10:53
that's the only way yeah just do03:10:56
whatever you deem fit we've just show03:10:58
