@@YRTi woodworking needs a lot of patience ang we must really be passionate on what we are doing.. Here's how i started to pursue my woodworking hobby. 2weeks ago, i bought a chainsaw to cut a dying tree in my farm and tried to make lumbers. Now i have a lot of crooked lumbers because i am not an expert chainsaw operator and it was my first time to use a chainsaw. Now, i want to do something with the lumbers. I want to build an 8 foot long table with live edge. That's why i need to learn more about different techniques on woodworking specially the joinery and the tools. Again, thank you for this beautiful channel. Anyway, i like the way you speak too. Very calm and relaxing. 😊

@@YRTi I find however that the level of enjoyment and reverence for a personal work is directly proportional to how hard-won the results are. Little effort, little reverence. Great efforts, great appreciation. There is a time to leave the power tools off and spend the time to do it by hand, and I find that is when there is a chance I could see the piece either daily or on-occasion. The added effort and time imparts an invisible quality that nobody else can see, from which I lay my eyes upon the piece I have trouble drawing my gaze away as my mind is transported back to the effort. I just don’t get that experience when I take the most efficient route to complete the project with power tools
@YRTi
@YRTi Ай бұрын
I agree with you. By the time I finish a project, I even remember most of the grains on boards and that's how much hand tool people pay attention to their products! In addition, the major reason I started woodworking with hand tools was I didn't like the inconsistency of my hand held powered router. Usually, people believe powered tools are more accurate but unless you have super high-end machines that are nicely set up, you can't get the accuracy you get from hand tools. Well, people say there's no perfection in woodworking and you don't need that machinery level accuracy in woodworking while they also say "dead accurate" when they really nail it. My goal is to consistently have the "dead accurate" level with hand tools, which is far from how I do now but it's fun to think how I can get better and practice:) It'll be a long way.

Love your channel, but I have one suggestion: I've heard you say this a few times now, that you've opted not to go to a proper lumber yard and instead go to a big box store like home depot for your stock, because those watching your channel might be limited thusly. I get your reasoning, however, I think this does them more harm than good. The fact is, the big box stores have terrible lumber that's extremely overpriced (even if it wasn't terrible) and I think a lot of new woodworkers (myself included!) don't realize just how large the difference actually is. Home depot will sell you a 3/4" x 6" x 72" board of cherry (for example) for something like $75+ each. I know, because I have sitting a few feet from me, a small stack of home depot hardwood that I bought when I first started and before I'd ever been to a lumber yard. The appeal was that it was S4S and at the time I have very limited milling capabilities. First, the same amount of wood from a real lumber yard is going to be *significantly* cheaper. As in, that $75 board of cherry would likely only cost about $10 (your mileage may vary of course) and even more than that is the quality. Home depot might say they kiln dry their wood, and they *sort of* do, but their MO is to get things on the shelf as fast as humanly possible. This means they speedrun the drying process and you end up with boards with lots of internal stresses that will literally never stay flat. Your home depot S4S will turn into a cork screw parenthesis the moment you take it out of its packaging, no matter how you try to acclimate it to your shop. Of all the lumber I bought from home depot initially, none of it has been usable. I cut it up into smaller pieces and milled it down to 1/2" thick or less to use for keep sake boxes, as that was all it was any good for, but even still most of what I milled twisted and bowed and cupped because of the flawed drying process. It's simply not worth it. Even if you have to drive a little out of your way to find a legitimate lumber yard, you should. You can still get your boards pre-surfaced, S2S or S4S as you please, and due to their proper drying process you're going to wind up with, the majority of the time, stable, workable stock. Can you get lucky with big box lumber? Maybe? Sometimes? But there's really nothing about it that makes it worthwhile. I still have several pieces of cherry and red oak that are still in their plastic packaging because I know the moment I remove it from the rigid cardboard runners, it's going to turn into a curly q. When I finally did go to a proper lumber yard I felt very, very, very stupid :)

Thank you for the comment and the advice! you are right! I started to go to lumber yard and enjoy my less than $5bf cherry:) Since I don’t have a big car, I feel bad that I only purchase a small amount though, haha. But still , I go to a bigbox store or Rockler to get a super small portion of figured wood sometimes for convenience or they have a good deal sometimes, too😎 but again, I really appreciate your advice!
@YRTi

Oh, now that I watched my newest speaker build, the reason I mentioned about where to get 1/2" board was, most of the lumber yards here(not a big box store) sell a 1/2" board as S4S and it's the same price or even more than 4/4 rough sawn board and I feel it's a waste of money. On top of it, it's 1/2" S4S (from a lumber yard) but I still have to dimension it to the accuracy I want (Since it's a thin board, it tends to cup more than 4/4 rough sawn board and if a board has a cup, it gets around 3/8" at the end). I don't mind resawing a 4/4 rough sawn board and dimension it by myself with hand tools but I was wondering if I can find 1/2" (maybe rough sawn) board cheaper than 4/4 rough sawn board so I don't have to resaw a board to start a project. I recently saw a guy posted a similar problem on reddit and majority of the people were responding that's what it is so I think, it's maybe what it is.
