They picked the right guy for that restoration. Great job Wes!

There are many how to videos on KZfaq, although they have great information to learn from, with your videos I feel I’m learning trade secrets, the type of trade secrets most craftsmen never tell a soul. You teach the art and creativity of woodworking, not just a cookie cutter way of doing things. It’s fascinating the details you explain and the different ways of doing things, it’s truly a gift to watch and learn the amazing things you teach. Thank you for sharing it all with us!

Wondfeaul and Beautifaul work and the wood iliiiik it

Your content is valuable knowledge thank you I’ve learned a lot from you

Good job recreating the moulding! I just checked wikipedia for some shaper history and found one man invented a shaper in the 1790s and another is credited with inventing the shaper in 1836. It is entirely possible the 1840 mouldings were produced in a mill with a shaper. Could have also been made by hand using hollow and round planes. It would have been easier to tell if the original moulding had not disintegrated. I am always glad to see old buildings restored instead of being 'remuddled' as the Old House Journal used to say.

Thanks so much Wes for showing step by step how to do crown moulding...I'm not experienced enough to even attempt to do it, but I always learn something about how to look and handle wood projects that I want to attempt to do...thank you!!

Great video and technique Wes! Thanks for sharing 👌👌👌👌

This is very cool. I've never seen a curved diagonal cut like that.

Good video, I didn't see an explanation of how you determined the angle (62 1/2 degree I think you said). Is there a formula if so could you share that, or explain your process. Thank you and keep producing videos.

Thank WES , I appreciate the video, any other types of molding you can create?

Nice job. If you are making 1 or 2 pcs. OK. Otherwise why bother just change to new
