Thanks! Yes, the animation is mostly because marks on the maple were barely visible. And to make peps understand what I am marking over 1.5 minutes there :) Aaaa, normally I put commentary wherever something is not obvious etc, but here was nothing to say actually, the thing is just mark well and then chop off the waste, as much as perfect to the markings :) I was too wondering what to write in the process but couldn't find anything to say, sorry :)

Dear Sir, Just to watch the sheer dexterity in which you work the chisels into the wood ( looks like Tiger Maple???) & the intricacy of the complete joint is a real treat. I've always wondered if one could replicate to some degree the same using a router with perhaps the aid of jigs as quite frankly I have no hand skills to speak of unlike you. Being able to produce such high standard qualifies you in some ways as a Maestro, there is no doubt. very well done & look forward to some more amazing woodwork projects. Kind regards.
@AdrianPreda6 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your kind comment, as always! I don't which species of maple is this one, which Acer..., it is anyway European maple, harvested from Slovenia, probably a mountain maple. Just some parts of the board had those figures, the rest was normal grain. It is indeed a very nice wood, and very unforgiving when it comes to joinery if you don't cut it perfectly, you can see any mistakes at the end :) Probably with some electric tools and jigs you can achieve a joint like this, at least to take out the rough material, and tune it then by hand. I plan in future to develop more of these carpentry skills, specially for myself, to build a workshop or some house design elements, and I will probably use the help of electric tools too. Thank you again, all the best!
@toolsconsumables70556 жыл бұрын
Dear Sir, Thank you very much for your courteous reply; if you're planning on doing your own house project using this kind of carpentry, that's something worth looking forward to. All the more if you intend to incorporate the judicious use of power tools. Kind regards.

you say you have no hand skills to speak of :) you dont have to start with a Japanese scarf joint. Start cutting tennons or fingerjoints. Today I practiced my finger joints for 8 hours and the last practice piece came out almost perfect. I felt like I improved throughout the day :) then move on to through tennons, dovetails and then attempt Japanese joinery. have a good day

When using this style of scarf joint is their a stronger position side? Like is the joint stronger with the diaganol cuts horizontal or vertical. I see it used both ways in different architecture asnd was curious. I need to extend the beams in my shop to open up some floor space and not have a butt up next to each other 3 piece been and vertical support posts taking valuable floor space. Thanks
@AdrianPreda6 жыл бұрын
I don't have any other experience with full size kind off joinery, but just by playing and observing this small one I may say with the diagonal cuts facing horizontal, cause you may think there is way more wood contact area to spread the forces too (and looks cooler too :) ) On the other side, vertical, can be better too cause wood pieces are holding to each other to the end grains, which holds better pressure. Anyway this is just an empirical explanation, don't think that wood strength-size ratio is so linear so can be applied to a smaller piece too.
@DorianBracht6 жыл бұрын
Traditionally the wedge is put in vertically, so that is also the orientation of the joint.
@ClimptonDiddlehopper6 жыл бұрын
Ok I thought it would be a stronger friction fit but I had seen some flip so before I but the weight of the upper floor I wanted some more insight. Thanks!
