That's one hell of a machine for joining and planing!

Dude, this is a great vid on how to square stock, I appreciate you taking the time to do this to help us novices. Thanks for the vid.

Wow this is a great video. So many people have covered this topic but you managed to explain the process in great detail while still keeping it simple and understandable. Thanks for making this!

That was by far the best board dimensioning video out there, I never thought of removing an equal amount from each side while thicknessing, but makes total sense. Thank you.

You have a gift for explaining things. Well done! Thank you. Beautiful shop by the way.

Thank you for the great video and explanations. I just purchased my first batch of rough lumber for a project. Until now I have always purchased S4S lumber and your video explained the how and why perfectly.

New subscriber here. Parenthood is beautiful! Congrats!! Thank you for showing and focusing on safety! Love that you showed your planer was disconnected.

Congratulations on the little one. Just discovered your site and thank you. You did an excellent job of explaining s4s. Please keep the quality of the videos coming.

Welcome Back, and Congratulation on having a new daughter. Looking forward for more of your video.

First time I've come across you and I gotta say - WOW. SO much information. So much wisdom. I'm sure after many hours and many lost boards/projects I could have arrived at the same info, but it's awesome to hear/learn it from someone who's been there. For instance, NEVER would have thought to plain the other side to induce symmetrical moisture exposure/reduce chance of future bowing. That kind of info was EVERYWHERE in this vid. Even though this vid is a few months old, I've subbed and can't wait to watch more.

As someone who just bought rough lumber for the first time this video was very helpful! Learned a lot. Especially the part about planing both sides equal amounts for moisture concerns. Thanks!

Thank you. Please do more of these videos. Oh and congratulations on the new family member.

Congratulations my friend, you're baby girl is absolutely gorgeous! May God bless you and your family!!! Thank you for the video I really love that jointer! I have never seen o e like it.

Good to see you making videos again. Dust collection with your jointer/planer looks to be about perfect. And congrats on the baby!

Hello Alabama!!!! Glad to see your working your way back into the shop!

Congratulations on the beautiful baby and that Joiner planer combination is amazing I definitely need one of those it would definitely free up some room...

Welcome back! And congrats on the new born! You just secured another full time gig (and then some) for the next 20 yrs or so. :)

Congratulation to the both of you on your new baby girl and welcome back!

Sweet video Huy, thank you! Welcome back to YT and congrats on your bundle of joy :)

Welcome back and congratulations. Great video.very informative.

Congrats on the new family member hope mother and child are well.Good to see you back

Congratulations on your new baby. I laughed when you said things are more stable now. You are going to experience new levels of love, of wonder, of fear, and of uncertainty. That is parenting. Thanks for the tips and for explaining your rationale for your milling process. The Hammer looks like an awesome machine. It is far beyond my needs, my space, and my budget.

Great information. Probably will refer back to this video from time to time. You're a great instructer/teacher. Look forward to future videos. Keep up the good work. Roger

Great video. Really helped me get the concept of flattening and squaring a rough cut piece.

Happy Birthday Eleanor! I just discovered your channel by accident. I am just setting up shop- also in Alabama. I thought you did a very nice job on the video. I am subscribing to see what wisdom I can gain from you. I am certainly not a master craftsman, but I enjoy milling my own lumber and designing and building projects with my limited knowlege and tool collection.

What a machine! And Congratulations on your new arrival 👍🏻👍🏻

Excellent information here, especially describing how you are holding down the wood. I'm still trying to wrap my head around why a jointer works.

Great video. Congrats on new member of your family! Hope to see more of videos.

A lot of very interesting thinking points regarding milling. Thanks and welcome back to YT!

Nice to see that your back and congratulations on the new addition to your family!!!

Glad to see you are making videos again and congrats on the new member of the family!

The Jointer.... Is a plainer????!!! What is this madness! How is this 5 years old and the 1st time I have seen this!???? GENIUS!!!! My brain just broke!!! 🧠

I was wondering what happened. Glad to see you back and congratulations to you and your wife.

Welcome back, looking forward to more great videos, and hope you include some pics of the new family member too!

Dude, love the workshop

Big congrats on your baby girl!

I just came across your video. Very Informative. Like Crockadile Dundee said in the Movie "You call that a knife and brandished his. That's just what you did with the beautiful machine !!

Great video Huy. Thanks for the info.

Dude, I clicked on this video because I wanted to brush up on dimensioning boards since it's been a while for me. I saw the "Alabama Woodworker" intro and thought: "Oh, boy! Wonder what kind of backwoods hilarity I'm about to see." Then the intro fades to you and I was like: "What?! That's Huy!" I made Lori watch the intro and we both just laughed. Seriously, you have to be the most talented and well rounded guy we know! Great video and belated congrats on that sweet baby girl!

Great explanations. Hope to see other videos from you; this was my first.

Seriously man you need to teach people for a living. Thats the best video i have ever watched (and iv watched some real crappy ones). Amazing, elequent clear speech and easy to follow explanations that made perfect sense.. Iv followed you on IG and now KZfaq. Cant say enough good things about you.

I've been looking forward to your return. Congrats.

Thanks for posting. Lots of good information here

missed you. welcome back and congratulations

Outstanding presentation

Hey, your back - great. Hope your new born is well.

Alright!! Good to see you posting again!!

A must watch. Well explained vid. Thnx

Now missing u again. Congrats on the nee family

Glad your back

Man youve got great machines

Nice. I’ve been following you on Instagram for a short while now and didn’t realise you had a KZfaq channel. I’ve seen a few videos relating to this videos subject, but I like your pragmatic and clear approach to the task. You’re a great teacher. As a random thing, I thought for a split second that your eye protection was actually some vintage fighter pilot goggles.

Welcome back! And congratulations... I wondered why I haven't seen any new videos and now we know. See, you were missed...

Nice to see you. Good Lucky to you, your wife and Eleonor... big hug from Brasil Said Choucair

Congratulations!

I learned a few things. Thank you!

Good tips! Thanks for sharing!

Congrats!

Congratulations on the newborn!

"I like to use a jigsaw." = A phrase I thought I would never hear uttered aloud. I have one, but I HATE using it. Congrats on the new future shop assistant, btw.

Welcome back and congrats. Love the combo machine. Pls share details. I’ve been thinking of getting something similar.

On Father’s Day, congratulations on your baby girl!

Welcome back

Such a satisfying video 😴

Very nice explanation Huy. I know you mentioned the length of the video being a possible concern. It was timed right with the well thought out information I expect from you. :)

Very good video, thanks and subscribed

Great video

Great explanation of the jointing and planing process and sequence, excellent diction, and what a machine! Cute tiny person! This is my first viewing of you on KZfaq, and find you to be one of the best at explaining woodworking. Thanks

Welcome back,

Nice machine!!

Excellent nice and simple thanks

It finally makes sense to me! It clicked at 8:26! Thank you!

I actually went to school with a dude named Huy Nguyen 😃 Glad you decided to come back, subscribed ✅

You have the safest setup ever seen

Adorable baby there (over 2 now lol) That hammer machine looks great. And negatives? Kinda want a wider planet but my little 12” has suited me fine so far. This was explained great! New sub! Thanks brother! :)

Great to see you back. The Hammer is one super machine! May have to have one of those....I really like your apron too....first time I have seen that style, looks professional and durable. Where did you find it?? Look fwd to seeing more projects.

Glad you're back! Congrats on the special addition to the family!

Can you imagine they did building in Japan with just hand tools back in the day and the buildings are standing still amazing craftsmen.
