Must-Know Timber Framing Joinery (cutting square rule tenon from start to finish)

Really enjoyed this!

I like these structures you build. If you don’t mind sharing, where are you located? I’m in eastern Kentucky and could be interesting in lending a hand on a project if you’re nearby.

Do you ever watch videos of Japanese timber framers? Their tools and techniques are unsurpassed and have taught me a lot. I think you’d learn a lot from them as well.

Great job!

That was really painful to watch.

thanks dude!

Why don’t you use the full 2” for the paring work you do?

What is or which side is the top and why does the bevel stop the timber from cracking? what does the mortise look like when it joins the tenon?.

might be a novice question, but why not use a sander for the finish touches rather than a block plane?

An industrial band saw would do just nicely.

You might want to sharpen your chisel and plane irons. They seem to be dull, wasting your energy and causing too much clean-up time.

this is. so neat to watch, i am getting excited for my project
