I do have to say those ancient carpenters even kept secret the fact they had electricity to use with their routers. They are truly amazing! And they kept the secret so well hidden all these years only to be exposed. Oh and I guess they also were able to make the electric motors for the routers and much more. Those guys were the best! We should all follow the example of these 'ancient' carpenters. Good thing for the internet to expose all the dirty secrets they hid from us.

I literally grew up watching my father create pendelum granfather clock cabinets (and all sorts of other intricate furniture) with mother of pearl inlays and moulded doors with glass panel inserts finishing up with traditional French Polish and stains, all mostly done with hand tools and devices he designed and made himself. Even the glue he used was prepared in his workshop. I can still recall the peculiar aroma. I wish I had been able to visually record the progress of his work for YT but this was all sixty+ years ago and he had done his apprenticeship in Edinburgh in the early 1900s.

there's an excellent point being made here, that a clever person with a career in carpentry was perfectly capable of inventing a tool when he had a problem. as an apprentice he'd learn the core skills as well as how to think, but he'd build on that in later years into a complex knowledge. and most of that knowledge was probably lost, except for what he thought were the "basics" to pass along to an apprentice, and maybe a genius idea or two copied by other carpenters. and it didn't matter that these ideas were lost, because later generations were too creative to be reliant on books and youtube when they needed something. it might be underappreciated that historically, geniuses didn't go to college and leave their class to become surgeons and mathematicians. moving to a higher class was largely impossible. geniuses just became exceptional examples of their craft

I tend to skip over videos or stories whose titles or descriptions convey the idea of recovering some lost ancient secret or wisdom. Most often, the idea is nothing more than a bad idea that deserves to remain in the garbage bin of history. But the still-frame picture was compelling enough to trigger my imagination, and I saw a potential application for my low-budget woodworking "shop". That still-frame was sufficient to motivate me to put the description aside and at least commit to watching the first 30-45 seconds of the video. Since I appreciated how you walked us through the process, I realised this could be a fun project to work on and watched the video to the end. I read two pages of comments, even using Google Translate to see if anyone had a useful suggestion to improve or modify the project. I left the peanut gallery and watched the video to the end a second time to make notes of how I could make use of some of the hardwood I have sitting on my wood rack. Thank you for walking us through your process. You have motivated me to get off my duff to build something useful for my shop.

The way I look at it, the beauty of KZfaq and such is that in the old days, if you weren't lucky enough to have a neighbor or family member to teach you, you never got any exposure to the tips and shortcuts that were used by people who actually put food on the table with their skills. Now anyone with a curious mind can just learn and learn even if you don't know a single woodworker in real life. I'm not surprised it's old tech, but I had never seen one before. The right idea in front of the right eyes at exactly the right time are how we get great new innovation.

I thing the ancient carpenters still keep their secrets from the author concerning safety: 1) not to stand inline with piece being cut as in case of blocking and kick-back it will be fired directly in their gut; 2) not to blow the dust as it will get into the eyes, which would be dangerous in workshop full of machinery. B. I made the same jig using 4 pieces of aluminium curtains rail, 4 L-joints and 8 bolts M6 with wing nuts. It took me 1 hour with coffee break.

Why not just use the router bits and be done in like 2 minutes? Plus, you have a drill press, yet chose to use the hand drill and added another 20 minutes to the job? Look, I understand you wanted to take as long as the "ancients", but that's just silly.
