Hi By

This guy is cool I hope he knows Christ as his saviour.

If you like that saw, you should try the Dewalt 60 volt circular saw and 60 volt worm drive saw. They are beasts.

Ok

@@brucecummings514 OMG why are you bringing Religion into these comments. This is not a place to proselytize! Unless this was a religious posting which it is not.

It was nice, wasn't it? Now watch this one for a creamy ending: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZtaPnaaImrvHeWQ.html

@@ljprep6250 😂😂😂

Me neither. Still waiting for Roger to do a video about flies getting in my flapper!

Because most people are miserable P.O.S's and they aren't happy unless they're talking shit to others from behind their warm safe computer screen.

Stupid is as stupid does. Just takes 1 mouthbreather to start it.

It's the Cowboys giving the thumbs down.

Because this is an advertisement for HiKoki. If this were a demonstration on how to make a scarf joint, he would have used non specific tools. (How much time did he spend on telling you about the hand saw he used? - about the battery life? about how great it is over another saw?).

Ten Millimeter Actually he didn’t mention how great it was compared to any other saw. He did mention how convenient it is to have a battery powered saw instead of a corded one due to the fact that some job sights won’t have power. That’s factual. Obviously you don’t understand how YT works. Some times content creators do short product spots to get their video sponsored. Nothing wrong with that.

You got that right. I still don't know how that joint holds so well.

I’m not telling you. Before we know it, you’ll know as much as me.

in a word, yes

I laughed when I saw your comment because that's exactly what I was doing. He is an excellent teacher.

Yes!

Andy Thurlow yes

Yup, watching an experienced and skilled tradesmen is always fascinating.

That is a true compliment..... I for one appreciate it!

Don't rule it out. I'm a DIY guy myself and I'm sure I will need it some time.

Idiot

I get your sense of humor and thought it funny 😄

@@keredrellit3992 Hahaha! Cheers, man👍😁

You'll be loved by all

That's a shame the apprentices are not seeing these joints at colleges

@John Doe You got that right. When my father retired I told him in a sense he was lucky, Being a child of the depression and 1 of ten mouths to feed, being drafted right before the Korean war broke out, he was puzzled by my statement . I told him he was hired to do a job in a time in history when your ability was what counted. Today to be hired to his job requires a college degree.

@@johnkendall6962 i know hundred romanians who do this here in Uk only by few nvq qualifications if you learn the right way and keep repeating till you succeed

I can give you my saw 4 ft for free to test it. Miter Saw is an old idea because has just about 1 ft cut and cannot be used on boards. It shall be retired. I invented a "Parallel Guided Power Saw" which can be seen on you tube under this name. My saw can cut up to 18 ft or more. Look at my saw and let me know what you think. My saw may replaced miter saw, table saw, and router table. It can carry also grinders, drills press, hand saw and more.

you are comparing two different things. a degree is suppose to teach you the physics, how it works, why it works, the forces at work etc.. real life experiences / hands on training teach you how to apply that knowledge and how to physically get it built.

Idiots today call it "Progress".

Thanks Ed nice comment

@@ukconstructionAnother super tutorial Robin. So is this being used here for a ridge beam or ridge board? The beam as I understand it is a structural component. If it is for a beam, does this mean it could be used in place of a long glulam beam or steal for instance supported at both gable ends? Many thanks Robin.

Definitely a great, great video, it is the first video explaining in detail how to do it. Thank you.

I can tell you this... Brits can carpenter too! Lol

I like the fact that my one favorite channels support another one of my favorite channels. I learn so much from both of these channels

lol

Fuck I did the same thing in junior high school That was funny I wished I'd thought of that a long time ago small town Northern Ontario Canada 🇨🇦👍

Got me with that one haha!

🤣

was it; this joint is almost done ?

I'm a trim carpenter as well..just curious, what do you usually have to scarf joint ?

@@michaeljohnson6649 anything that I install that's not long enough for my run. Crown, base, jams, shoe, casing... I never use butt joints and I learned not all that long ago to match the grains if possible. Makes for a much more professional finish.

@@russwollet8998 ok cool..yea I never but joint either..usually mitered 22.5 and yes I always match grain or cut out of the same piece around corners so the grain flows..looks 👌

they're

Technically, a scarf joint is any sort of angled lap that joins two timbers lengthwise, so you're right think of those ones of yours that way even if they weren't structural. So for example you'll sometimes see simple glued scarfs when repairing wooden boat frames and strakes, where the two pieces are cut at a common angle and glued up with epoxy. This is an extreme case in terms of both simplicity and total reliance on adhesion for its strength, so the scarf pitch is extremely shallow, typically 1:12, and it's done parallel to the wide face of the board, both to maximize contact surface and to align with springing forces. The ends may be slightly stepped for the sake of appearance. You won't know that these are scarfs because the angled faces will be hidden. At the opposite extreme are the many variations of scarf joints in traditional Japanese joinery. There may be multiple steps, and the ends may be undercut or fingered, for example, all in an effort to hold the joint tight. Fingered joints must be drawn tight with wedges, but on rare occasions you'll see the unfingered kind so precisely fitted that they're simply driven together. I expect that unwedged scarfs are used in applications where the pieces are held in place by some other means as well.

I work in a boat building school. We call a straight 1:12 diagonal joint a scarf (or scarph); what he first laid out a stepped scarf, and this joint is a wedged or pegged stepped scarf.

As DIY gimp myself, that used to be me, until one day it passed me off so bad I googled it and then was like, "what a colossal moron I am", now have a twin set up, one to drill one to drive. Its this kinda stuff they don't teach in school anymore.

any self respecting carpenter knows to predrill

The funny thing is that since making this video we have met several carpenters who use them on a fairly regular basis but steel ridge beams have become so popular that the poor old scarf may end up on the endangered species list.

Absolutely, these techniques goes back hundreds of years..before metal fixings and limited tools.

What’s just as impressive is how he gets that - off saw spot on the job. I have a corded 7-1/4” saw (similar) but can never get the blade exactly where I want it.

Thanks David

Great go for it, thanks for taking the time to watch
