Great video. I'm a full time fine furniture builder here are few things I noticed ... You should have cut the legs to length first. When you do a wedged tenon the wedge should always be perpendicular to the grain of the wood with the mortise. The diameter of the tenon is great for the seat, but way to big for the leg. You've lost most of the strength of the leg with just a thin bit of the square going past on each side.

@Litlight1 4 ай бұрын

The first thing I noticed when he drilled the holes for the stretcher tenons in the legs was it looked like it took away a LOT of strength. 1 1/4 inch square legs. 1 inch holes, leaves 1/8 inch either side of the tenons. I would like a bit more meat in there, personally.... Yes,i bit more meat in my stool.... There's a joke in there somewhere....

@barryirby8609 4 ай бұрын

Chuck is correct, a 1" hole in a 1 1/4" leg does not leave enough meat, scary. Try 3/4" or smaller tenons on the legs, Next time, to lay out the triangle on the seat for the holes, use a compass. Draw a circle, maybe 8" in diameter, compass set at 4", step off around the circle and you will get six points, skip every other one and there's your triangle.

Innovative way of coving the top. If you had waited to cove the top after the legs were attached you may have been able to cove tenons and top at the same time. Mind you what do I know . I am a lathe guy and would have turned the entire project. This is one of my favs on your channel

Nice stool, it's cool to see how you went about building this. Word of caution to anyone using wedged tenons, I've seen chair seats split due to the wedge running parallel to the grain. It's a safer bet to have your wedges run perpendicular to the grain for less chance of cracking. In most cases it's probably not an issue, but just something to consider.

Outstanding work, Jason! However, I would like to point out that you really need to warn people not to do this with their wife's $180 Le Creuset pan. So to the rest of the viewers; if Jason suddenly disappears, he's been viciously beaten to death with said sauté pan, by his wife, and unceremoniously buried in the back yard, lol.

Thinking back to the split in the "lock" stretcher, the smart money imho would have been to glue that back together when gluing up the stretcher assembly. Just my $.02 And the "cove" fits unicheek bottoms perfectly!

Beautiful stool Jason! Easily 100 Courics. For those making stools at home, make sure your wedges are perpendicular to the grain so that when you send them home, they won't split your seat or legs. Also Paul Sellers has a great video where he makes a simple 3 legged milking stool. Tons of tips and definitely worth your time
