It's actually better practicing sawing directly next to a line. It's going to be a very rare joint where you want to split a line (or use a line, accurate joinery tends to be knifed); most of the time you want your saw next to the line on the waste wood, so you don't change the dimensions of the remaining wood. Added advantage; cutting next to the line you get a much better indication of your accuracy. If you saw away the line this only means the line fitted within the kerf, it doesn't mean the kerf exactly followed the line, and inaccuracy gets worse the bigger the difference in width between the line and your kerf. Sawing next to the line you can see exactly whether you followed it: it should remain completely with no wood left between the line and the kerf.

Don't forget maintenance tasks, either... those little things you don't have time for in the middle of a project, seem too unimportant to worry about most of the time, or seem too big to do all at once and so tend to not get done. Some examples: clean behind things, oil some tools that don't get used very often, organize your drill bits, gather up some tools that have been left scattered from previous projects, put away some of the clutter that tends to collect on flat surfaces, sweep around the edges of the room, clean the rust off of a tool that has been neglected, sharpen something, clean one shelf, question the layout of your shop, change that one burned out light bulb or buzzing ballast, start a shopping list of the things you mean to get when you're at the hardware store for something else but keep forgetting. All of these things will make your more useful chunks of time more efficient and/or more pleasant. This could also be extended to chores outside of the shop. Do bits and pieces of the things that keep you out of the shop so you don't have to "waste" a whole day or a whole weekend doing random little chores all over instead of doing what you want to in the shop.

@contestwill1556 8 ай бұрын

the reality is that you can't work effectively without doing those things and thus they are as much a part of your project as dimensioning the parts, cutting the joinery, applying the finish. so getting some of them done when you have small time is progress on your project even if it doesn't feel that way at the time

This a really useful discussion. A trick my grandfather taught me about crosscutting was to use the saw plate as a mirror. In that mirror, the reflection makes the saw appear sort of transparent and the board seems to visible on both sides of the saw. You want the edge of the board to appear to extend without an angle in it from one side of the plate through the other. You keep that apparent line straight while starting the cut. As you and other woodworkers point out, once the cut is well started it tends to stay straight and in the plane you started it in. I was told this when I was quite young. I did not understand how it worked until I took geometry in high school.

About a year ago, I actually had a scrap of time like this. For my day job, I needed a docking station for 2 laptops with 2 monitors. All of the stations sold on Amazon were for 1 laptop with 2 monitors. So I had to modify it and move the center supports inwards so both laptops on each side would fit. This involved drilling large precise holes in particle board. Fortunately (thanks to you), I had a tool in which I had practiced on that was ideal - the bit brace. I carefully drilled those holes required to move the center supports, making sure I didn't blow anything out. But I also needed some additional holes in the sides for USB cable routing. And these holes were partial with the bottom being open so the cables could be run though them. Any power drill would have ripped that open side out, but the bit brace cut them perfectly. And I was done in 15 minutes, ready for my zoom meeting.

You nailed it. Nice reminder that practice is the only way to master one's craft. The only difference between a master and an apprentice is the time dedicated to their passion, work, sport, whatever. Talent help of course and will probably make a difference towards greatness. But I think that anyone can master a skill that they feel like doing. That was a boost in motivation. I am cleaning the mess in the shop to have a go. It has been a while for me. No big project still. I even need to finish my bench. But I could have still practiced the skills... I will keep this video in my mind ! Thank you for that ! 😘

Thanks! I'm glad you brought out practice.

Such an amazing video. When I think, everything I do well I honed my skills like this. Just today I took a slow time at work to program 1 piece of a little tool I’m making because I don’t get to do that enough anymore. Too many people in my position get out of touch with what they have to tell people to do. I spent a little time before and after work cutting new teeth into a saw I don’t love because I’ve never done that. I spent 20 minutes over lunch practicing guitar. I’m still terrible at that, but I love it. Now I’m watching videos after the saw work because it’s cold in my garage. I regret wearing slip on shoes, my feet are cold. I’ve learned that with the things I love, I love the activity. The output is extra satisfaction. I’ve also learned to start with a version of a project I’m OK with screwing up while I learn, or that I never finish. It’s a hobby and putting pressure on myself defeats the purpose. I have a job for that.

Thanks Rex, a great video. You’ve really made me think about using those spare minutes rather than just waiting till I have a morning or afternoon free. And yes we should definitely look at practicing just as we would if we were playing a musical instrument. (I’m sure I can get a note out of that saw 😂) Ken from Southport UK.

I actually prefer to plane by pulling the plane. It just feels more natural to me. My uncle who taught me always said it was weird as hell, but if it works for me that’s fine. That’s a lesson I’ve held tight to since; there’s tradition and what’s right for you, sometimes they’re the same, sometimes they’re not and that’s ok.

I work from home a couple of days a week. The comment "you have ten minutes before your next zoom meeting" struck a chord with me. I have envisioned a series of practice things that lead to the next thing to practice: cross cut to shooting to making a mortice/tenon or dove tail

@jimcarter4929 8 ай бұрын

This is good advice. I like sawing, and will just practice that for short periods to stay fresh but also try different techniques. For instance when sawing dove tails some say to start saw on far side, or some near side and even laying saw level. Some say to tilt wood in vise some do it level. Practice each and try different saw in different wood to find your own style..Or if nothing else sharpen something. Another good exercise is surface aboard to four or six sides with you plane.

A very useful video which reminds me I need to spend more time having fun playing in my workshop, one point though (mostly for others), I don't believe you need a dovetail saw to do dovetails, the dovetail saw helps you to get a fit straight off the saw but you can do dovetails with almost any saw with a little chisel work. And even with a dovetail saw you still need a lot of skill to get the fit straight off the saw.

I have spent the last couple of years tinkering and learning a ton off of another local woodworkers scrap pile. I went 2x and got scraps from him. That yielded me hardwood scraps which I had never bought hardwood at all. I was too terrified of the cost v error potential. I have since learned to carve with a trim router on those scraps and make some decent signs. I have been practicing box joints, rabbets, etc. Box joint practice ends up making useful cell phone stands too. lol One day I want to try dovetails but I am not there yet. I will get there eventually. For a long time I had a lot of fear of messing up. Embracing scrap practice was the thing I needed. I was too mentally hung up on not wasting purchased wood. But those scraps have helped me learn so much. I still have a long way to go. I am a homeschool Mom with little bits of time so this video resonates. For my birthday in Feb my husband is going to take me to one of the hardwood dealers here. I now have a small planer and jointer so I want to get some rough lumber and finally perhaps create my own scraps. Lol And hello from down in Wayne County!
