Hi Andrew, thankyou for the subscription and I'm glad it made sence mostly! The 3mm thing, is me getting confused on this job, I had in my head they were less deep rebates than I normally use and would therefore leave a wider flat on the inside edge of the door everywhere it is rebated. So on the rails this would mean you are left with a section of timber running along the tennon which has to be removed manually (as the rebate cut hasn't removed it) before it will fit in the mortice. These doors are part of a bigger job which the glazing is being fitted with a putty replacement product, however, these doors aren't being glazed in that fashion and I explained it wrong. Thankfully the doors were right 🤣

This is traditional joinery, well done with the descriptions and filming, it was very informative! I particularly like the tenoner set up that you used. I like the way you do the tenons first and then match the mortice locations, as you pointed out, rather than the other way around. I have done it, mortice first, mostly in the middle of the stile, depending on glass thickness and beading, and then set up a spindle moulder with slide rail and a two part tenoning head, and then trying to get tenon thickness to match. This way looks way better and an a much easier set up, also like the three cutter head set up - keep up the good work I'll look out for more videos. Would you consider doing a video doing a sash build for a double hung window and go through, amongst other things, the meeting rail process with the bevelled edges and forked tenon, I reckon prospective joiners like myself would gain allot of insight, just a request. Well done man great work very professional!! Andrew

There are no actual rules when it comes to jointery.

Hello, Thanks for your videos, they are really great.. I'm wondering as to why you put the moulding on the external side of these doors and when you make the oak casement windows you do it on the inside? Also Im wondering is it still good practice on an external door to hand cut and scribe the moulding on the stile where it meets the rails rather then doing as you have done in this video with the counterpart cutter on the tenons of the rails? Hope that makes sense.. Thanks again.
@BradshawJoinery 3 жыл бұрын
HI Pat, traditionally i have always put the mouldings on the inside. i dont believe normal timber to be stable enought to have a internal rebate..... however Accoya wood is a different matter. there is zero movement so a perfectly sealed and painted moulding you can seal the glass up to makes for a great weatherproof setup. the best infact!!!
@fazer12779 2 жыл бұрын
You generally put beads on the inside to stop burglars from simply removing the beads & breaking in. On sash windows you putty the outside rather than bead as putty stands up to the elements better & also a glazer can replace the glass from the outside as a meeting rail blocks the rebate at the top of the bottom sash.

@BradshawJoinery 3 жыл бұрын
Mortice is a precise location to work with a multipoint lock so it's all worked out before cutting. They are usually very tight to fit in depth wise so it's normally as deep as you can cut without going into the rebate/inside of the stile. In cases where there is plenty of stile width you can work to around 8/10mm depth accuracy/allowance 👍

@theofarmmanager267 2 жыл бұрын
I’ve got a dedicated morticer and used to make doors/windows in a traditional way (wedged tenons for doors; normal tenons for windows). I now tend to use a Festool Domino XL to make large mortises in both rail and stile, making the loose tenon out of the same material. I’ve not had any issues doing it the domino way - but the real test will come long after I’m pushing up daisies. Do you have any experiences or thoughts about this? I have to admit that the domino way is easier on my arms and shoulders than the morticer. There is obviously a small saving on timber but not an argument either way
@BradshawJoinery 2 жыл бұрын
I have to say that i wouldnt see much of a problem if your using Accoya but i wouldnt trust a dominod door in hard or softwood to have the strength or integrity of a proper wedged mortice and tenon after say 5 years. For me though the big part of my work and what makes it quality and special is that you are getting the traditional joinery done properly. Suddenly if you take away the done properly part its a bit faux. Dont get me wrong though there is a huge if not the biggest market for work that looks the part but reasonably priced, (probably more profitable) but i enjoy the fact that when you inspect an item futher than face value, an onlooker that knows their stuff would give a satisfying nod rather than a shake of the head! For me that's the real beauty in the work and what i'm passionate about. Its kind of the reason i started doing youtube videos. The proper way of making things is disappearing and i thought it a good method to pass on what i was lucky enough to be taught or have learnt to people that will not have the oppourtunity to learn otherwise. Man ive written an essay here, i've got about 100 comments to reply to, lets hope i don't get as carried away on all of them! haha P.S. ive used some Morticers in the past that are absolutely brutal to work. the Sedgwick i have to say is fairly clinical in operation with a sharp chisel. doesnt take a huge amount of effort unless its real hard wood.
@theofarmmanager267 2 жыл бұрын
@@BradshawJoinery thank you for that. When I use a domino for doors, I must admit that I make repeated mortises in stiles and rails so that you might get a mortise 75mm X 12mm - I then make dominoes to fit. I would love to use the mortise more but both my shoulders (plus neck and back) are b*ggered - I was actually using the domino yesterday and even that, after 10 or so mortises, made me have to stop. I appreciate your marketing strategy; differentiating your work from off the shelf is the key point. I’m afraid that when I started, we had virtually none of the machinery now available and mortises were cut using an auger, followed by mortise chisels; tenons were cut by hand saw. We had to use warmed hide glue and I think that it is glues that have made the biggest difference for woodworkers today. We used to have to incorporate mechanical joints with chemical joints - that meant M & T as well as dovetails and locking scarf joints etc. Now, all the tests have shown that the timber is more likely to give way rather than the glue. If they had had this quality of glues then, I’m sure that Mr Chippendale would not have paid his workers to spend extra time cutting dovetails. I have only made for family and friends for years now and the only comment I ever had on dovetails was when a family friend said that she liked my hand-drawn picture of the piece but “ could I leave out those darts on the side as they look fussy”. As I say to everyone at this time, keep busy and keep healthy.

What's that glue you're using looks much thinner. Of up the work shop in half hour to crack on. We do quite a bit of spraying so looking forward to the painting vid .Appreciate the time taken cheers. Glue????

HI Charlie, I use sovereign Chemicals glue, their own brand one. Its a bit runnier than the likes of everbuild and some others, and i find takes a little longer to go off! but not much. it sets hard eventually, but is softer than other glues once initially dry so i find that helps clean up. i have been recommended that everbuild do a slow setting PU, ive not tried it yet, have you?

Have just acquired a 500 mile of social P 40 OR P45 ..its a much slower PU .... Also been introduced to a new modified radiata today that is processed in Wales . Bit heavier than Accoya but cheaper and with all the benefits. Think it's called liguina .. All the best . Charlie

@BradshawJoinery 4 жыл бұрын
I pretty much use Accoya for everything external. It's very dimensionally stable so you get no call backs. It also stays looks good for longer and it doesn't rot, even if the moisture gets in. Its supplied in nominal sizes pretty much imperfection free, it's nice to work with, leaves a nice finish, coatings last a long time on it. There aren't many reasons not to use it. Just make sure your following the rules if you do decide to use Accoya there are a few things that can trip you up

This timber is called Accoya. It's acetylated Radiata Pine, the modification process basically eliminated rot and seasonal movement in the timber. The glue I'm using is from Sovereign Chemicals UK

A 58mm door won't spring - I appreciate your reasoning and experience - but it will be interesting over the next couple of years how we accommodate thicker joinery profiles as the Building Regs change to allow for different and thicker glazing. Will we also have to allow for the stress / movement of the thicker timber on the glass and have thicker or different glazing silicone bed ...or even go back to a putty. That's a general comment on joinery - not a reflection on your work :)
@BradshawJoinery 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Robert, Im not totally sure if your saying it wont spring or reffering to something i said? Joinery, in my opinion only needs to be so efficient, There comes a point at which you need ventilation and draughts, so what the point in insulating to a silly degree to add in cold air anyway. Vacuum glazing will probably be the future and its very thin.

How would I go about adding the moulding to a door I make if I don’t have a tennoning machine like yours. Can it be done on a router table after the tenons have been cut? I’m making an external door for my garage using your video as a guide, making through tennons properly wedged but I would like to add the moulding some how without planting it on. Cheers!
@BradshawJoinery 2 жыл бұрын
Yes you can scribe over the moulding by hand or mitre them at the joint, set the shoulder on the tenon to the deepest part of the moulding, then either mitre both pieces, or just mitre the tenon moulding to the same point at 45 degree and cut back the moulding to create the scribe. I think I've detailed it on a couple of other videos, I will find them

I'm not really a router expert, but the moulding on that door is lambs tongue, I'd look for either an ovalo or ogee cutter from Wealdon. Look for one that will work with the timber sizes your dealing with and draw it out if you need to first. For a moulding with 13mm from tenon to edge of timber I'd use a 7mm ovalo, so 3mm flat 7mm ovalo 3mm flat. Hope that makes sense

I'd be very grateful.

The cut at 55:40 is a lambs tongue profile. Wealdon tools do a cutter set very similar, you will have to check if the dimensions work for your project...! www.wealdentool.com/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Lambs_Tongue_Sash_Cutters_652.html My cutters are from Whitehill tools for the spindle moulder and tenoner using HSS cutters. I use cutter Profilers UK for any custom cutters. If you have any more questions please ask Ian. Im sorry i didnt see your question/associate with the beers and im incredibly grateful!

@@BradshawJoinery Another brilliant video thanks. Love the little tips that you’d never read in any books. On the subject of spindle moulder videos, I was wondering if you could find the time to include using it for making tenons too? I know you’ve got a dedicated tenoner, but most of us don’t (and only a few have a moulder) but it would be really helpful to see how you use it for tenoning by comparison, especially as you have the sliding table on your moulder but I’ve never seen you use it in any of your videos. Your thoughts on the usefulness of the slider would be interesting (but I guess most of the time you’d not bother if you’ve got a power feeder?). Cheers 👍
@BradshawJoinery 3 жыл бұрын
I don't use the sliding table tbh. It's handy for access into the machine but for purpose of a sliding table I have no use. It would be relatively simple to make up a tenoning setup for use with it using either stacked tenon discs or a rebater and recessed top but so the tenon could pass over the block and make a sacrificial back fence. 👍

Hi Peter, the glue used in the cartridge is a PU glue from Sovereign Chemicals called PU Rapid. The titebond I use with Accoya also, but most tasks I stick to polyurethane now! It's had a better flexibility and it's nice and quick too.
