You might need a transparent component in your next project, or you might need a material that slides or bends better than wood. May I suggest acrylic? It’s clearer than glass, is impervious to humidity, and it’s flexible. It’s also cheap, so it might make a good addition to your next project. Now, you can buy a bunch of fancy new tools for working with acrylic, or you can learn how to use standard woodworking tools to cut and shape acrylic sheet. In this video, I’ll show you how to do just that.

How to make a Housing Dado Joint – The Three Joints – | Paul Sellers

Paul Sellers
Published on 18 Mar 2015

It takes a master woodworker to teach the basics. Watch Paul’s every move in this video. He shows every single detail of cutting this essential woodworking joint. This is one of the three joints that Paul talks about in his woodworking curriculum.

The housing dado is the essential shelving joint. It is the strongest way to suspend a wide horizontal board by passing it into a vertical piece such as a bookshelf. It has many other uses, such as the back of a drawer. Although there are many variations on a theme with this joint mastering the most simple form is the most difficult and important step.

Bowl-gouges cost a lot of money, but you can make a fantastic gouge out of some simple materials and a few hours time in the shop. Lots of turners have made the famous “Oland tool”, but this video presents an easy, cheap, and nearly idiot-proof method for making an Oland-style tool that can handle large turnings and hard, challenging woods.

Moulding Planes | Paul Sellers

Filed under: Tools, Woodworking — Tags: , , — Nicholas @ 04:00

Paul Sellers
Published on 8 Aug 2019

We might easily be disaffectionate to the forebears of woodworking, who so enriched our lives with the most wonderful woodworking ever created, using only their bare hands and tools they made to work with. For a short run of moulded stock, moulding planes can be immediate and quite inexpensive. Many “old-timers” kept them around to replicate old moulds and also to develop modern alternatives with their own proven technology. In this video Paul touches the very tip of the iceberg of what lies beneath the surface that we have just barely scraped.

Woodworking mallets can be flimsy or too light. The good ones are expensive and vintage ones can be hard to find. But if you have a dollar and a few hours, you can make TWO excellent woodworking mallets out of a common rolling pin. In this video, I’ll show you how to make a chisel mallet and a carver’s mallet from thrift-store materials using common tools. The mallets I make are ergonomic, durable, and will last for years. Stop hitting your chisels with a hammer and make two great mallets today.

Drawbore – An Inside Look | Paul Sellers

Paul Sellers
Published on 25 Jul 2019

The drawbore is an ancient and intriguing method of holding joints together without the need for glue. However, it is hard to make this right if you don’t understand how it works. Paul has put together and then sawed in half a drawbored mortise and tenon to show how the peg works and what is needed to achieve the strength and unity of this type of joinery.
