Good and informative video, Will. I expected you would demonstrate face jointing a board wider than the jointer using the feature you showed when making the rabbett. I have seen other YouTube makers demonstrate this method (Jay Bates has a good one) and I have done it myself with a sled of MDF.
hello..I made a safety guide after watching your video. Thank you for being an inspiration to me.
Thanks very well done,
I had missed this video. Very educational
Excellent video but that is a goofy looking #7 and I think you have it upside down 😉
The very best video I’ve seen so far on using a jointer. Great 1
muy interesante. Gracias
That taper trick is pretty slick!!!!
5 ways to get a jointer for free?
great concise video thank you!
This is good infor – thank you for sharing it. But I’d also like to say: your style of presentation is boss. You get straight to it – no wasted verbiage, no making your viewers wait – just fast and direct. And you illustrate these techniques with perfect clarity. My hat’s off to you.
That tapering trick looks both awesome and terrifying at the same time!
Nice video will! Thanks for sharing it with us.😎👍JP
Good video! thanks for making it!
Really good info. Thank you 👍👍👍
Nicely and efficiently shared. Thank you… SUBSCRIBED
Just add a stop so that you end the tapering at the same point always, and you won’t need to remove the cover and all 4 sides Of your part will be equal vs eyeballing it.
I know Woodglut has the best woodworking plans.
is there a way to do the tapering technique on stock wider than your jointer? I have 10×10" leg i want to do this with but only have an 8" jointer
Great tricks brother, I like your video!
Great ideas!!!!! I like these type of videos. I’d like to see more of them on different machines. 👍
👍👍 tapering is new to me!
Great anchor for sinking a body in the east river.
But seriously, the tapered leg trick is pretty sweet. Thanks for sharing that one.
great video, you just saved me and my biddies a hell of alotta time. wicked.
Nerd!! Nice video, dude.
fantastic!!
Hmmm… I finally followed Ann’s advice and took Woodglut. It’s great for beginners and has some advanced stuff too.
A new jointer, NICE !
just acquired a jointer and had never seen the tapering or rabbeting operation performed on a jointer before. thanks for the knowledge!
great video, informative and strait foward, thumbs up !
Great vid. I agree with another commenter.. straight forward. You get right to the important content. That’s refreshing. Would love to learn about some of those safety tools you use. What they are, when to use them, and where to get them.
I’ve used a jointer for decades and never knew this tapering technique. Always something new to learn.
Great teaching style. No BS.
Is there any risk to running your edges through a jointer a second time? I ask this because I ran my pieces through the jointer two or three times already (i.e. face jointed then edge jointed). Afterwards I ran them through my thickness planer and ended up with ripping the last edge at my table saw. When I laid out the boards for a dry fit (i.e. I’m laminating them to make a table top) I noticed that a few of the boards had what appears to be a "not" flat surface. There were noticable gaps between a couple of the boards when I did a dry fit. I’m thinking of edge jointing a few of them a couple more times to flatten out the edges. I have a little wiggle room as it relates to width of the boards. Am I on the right track? Thanks for your consideration and ??reply. I am somewhat of a newbie, but perhaps not a total "novice". I wish I could include a picture of what I’m building but I don’t think that’s possible.
Great tips, thanks for shearing
Nice! I needed to see the video thank you!
woohoo! 101st comment! Thanks for the video! Never seen the taper method before. I’m refurbishing an 80s Delta planer and Craftsman 6" jointer planer to start up a shop using chainsaw milled wood. Really excited about the project.
Can someone please reply with the formula for calculating taper angle?
I’m brand new at woodworking and he explained this in a way I could understand. The tapering is awesome.
I honestly never knew you could make a rabbit on a joiner. I’ll have to look at mine to tomorrow to see if I can on my machine.
I want to go start tapering things now.
Thanks for the #4!
Thanks for the tips. I didn’t know about the tapering technique.
Lap joints, tenon cuts
Sir, how do you align your infeed table to ensure flatness? Seems my stock pieces all come out with the side of the face closest to the fence with a curve after I joint them. Maybe it’s the blade?
great content, clear message, good quality, very little fluff and no clutter. Well done!
I will try to do it with Woodglut plans.
I had no idea you could taper on a jointer. Thanks for the tip. That’s awesome.
I don’t know how i missed this one before! Thanks for sharing. That taper trick seemed like magic!
I just got a super old jointer, table saw and skill saw from the 50s-60s. I have no use for the jointer but it’s really cool. Was hoping this video would show me something I could and would do with a jointer. I guess I’ll just have it in my shop to look cool.
You’re videos are so addictive! You give the best step by step and explanations. God bless!
May I cut a wood which is varnished?
