everyone so we're back spike my place now we're going to be timber-frame in this workshop over the next week hopefully start anyway we're going to need some some I saw horses and things to make our life easier so we're spending the day just making these I'm going to make four of these just how some scraps I've got lying around so here we've got one down this kind of the design we're going to go for they're nice and strong and they're quite light as well and picking off moving quite really so we're going to make another three of them today and then tomorrow we're going to start off on this on this timber frame there's a two down so the slightly different just using bits that I've got lying around so another two to go making time very handy so we got a four sawhorses made today we're going to cut some firewood for us today so tomorrow we're ready to start doing this timber framing and here which is going to be a learning experience oh is taking this close to the baby we've done one joint 110m marking out and it takes very long time so no no I'm Ben I should make a video of how to be in the next one see it's done it was successful just took a long time so I'm going to try and show you how to mark out a tenon on a bendy piece of wood like this one so that the tenon sticks out straight and lines up with a mortise regardless of how bendy the piece of wood is like we did over here this piece of wood all bendy and this tenant is perfectly straight to the bottom of the wood and all the middle bit is essentially irrelevant or the bendy bits so what we've done is we've stood the piece of wood up and figured out which way we want the piece of wood sit and we've made a mark here this is going to be our baseline mark this marks gonna we're going to now create an imaginary straight line through this piece of wood all the way up the other end to make a 10 and straight and perpendicular the right word for the bomb yeah so going to create an imaginary hole through the middle of the wood that's perfectly straight so that we know tenon is going to be in the right place okay now we have a string lines going from mark at the bottom over there we lay down here and to the end so now we're going to mark the bottom of it here and it's off of it here and we're going to work our way around we're going to rotate it then and we're going to find our center point that's seen there I've just marked where my string Line is here so now I'm going to go in the two marks up this will become the center line of our ten that's that line that will be traveling right through the middle of us head on that end will be here somewhere right now I've rotated the log I can now figure out where I want my tenon to be for what it might tenon to be offset I choose an offset Center if I wanted to go over this side I choose a line over here once it over this side to line over here because of how the log is I'm just going to put the tenon in the middle so now I need to get this log level so I can hang a string line down from my new point which is here and where it crosses the center that center point if you were to imagine an imaginary hole all the way through the middle of log that center hole would line up with the hole at the bottom of the log we've created an imaginary square through the center so I'm going to get 11 next line get this leveled up so the string line hangs down is perfectly straight and then we can learn to mark a line and find our center point sort of that's our that point where all that crosses just there we were to drill a hole all the way through this piece of wood that center point would be exactly the same on the other end that's where our holes come out and you see on this end it's off center on that in this Center and that's the viz the log the log just do anything up my line that goes all the way through the middle of my wood and creating the length of my penance Shannon is going to be 170 no long this is going to be this is going to be there is the shoulder of the tenon just here this line will correspond and go way down correspond to the line from the other end of the log so we just got to turn it around and Mark another one of those and then we're going to transfer these lines around to each other and they'll give us our shoulder so we relative the bottom okay now I've got all of my lines marked out as you see that's going to be the shoulder the tenant got them done all the way around the piece of wood and we've got a central line through the middle which is that line there tenon is going to be there and it's going to correspond to that curve in the wood so now what we need to do is we need to join these lines up perfectly in relation to this one so we've got a little a little tools in the use for that it's a square with a bit string that hangs down occasionally the other okay mark that stranger yeah one shoulder that is another it's kind of gone around a bit that line item is destroying there now but in if the shoulder of a tenant now any touching mark afternnon where it's going to be measure over from these lines and flatten send them there so we're now going to mark the width of our tenon so the thickness of the tenon offers these lines tenon is going to be 50 mil so I'm going to mark 25 mil on each sides 1025 well we do the same on the other side and then we're going to chip out order this it's going to be gone it's going to be done left with this single piece in the middle Hey okay now we need to reestablish once we've cut our line officer please go from there their remark our line across here and we need to measure the width of our tenon after this point cut turn it over do this on the other side and make sense is this your area in here yeah this is going to be a tenant this is all going to be taken away that so what I did was I figured out where my tenon being happy is going to be it's going to be 120 mile wide because the wood allows it to be that big so we're going to make it a big so I just marked it I'm just going to check that they're both the same same size and they are so now I'm going to turn it round to flatten off the other side do the same thing and then when the knock these off and then we'll end up with a tenon fits like on the other one that we did down there right I say we got both sides done now so now we have two flat sides now need to take this off and this off and then we'll have a tenon so this is going to do that going to cut down to the line with the chainsaw chip out the pieces there's our cups are going to split these lumps off chisel it down okay that sides done though it's easy now we just gotta do this sides can be a bit of painters and not there so it seemed established so Adams just going to these cuts again cut this piece off chip it also okay this pennant is now complete right next task is to get some mortises kind so this being this is going to be either the front wall post there's our two beams down there they're going to sit we're gonna have a mortise in here somewhere I'll be the centerline of a mortise and without of another mortise down here somewhere that'll be about the center line there so we're going to put a string line between the ends and find our centers and then we'll show you what the next step is so it's going to be kind of a curved front beam but then if you can see that on camera but it's a curved it's not the men's it's curved piece of wood and it's kind of quite big overhang on the sides and I think it's going to look pretty cool so we're going to run a string line and we'll show you that okay find our sensors and go from the center of this end to the central bank there's a string line going all the way across now we're going to mark out our mortises in relation to this string will be going straight down so we're going to mark lay them out on this side make flat spot lay them out and then over there put a little jig in here just going to hang another plumb line down through the through the holes and then we mark the bottom and then we'll choose all that okay so marked out center line and here this distance in here and here is the size of the shoulder or the tendons of that shoulder there so we're going to flatten this off the chainsaw and then but mortise through here and then that shoulder will butt up against this flat spot we're about to make so we just marked out a center point of the tenon and the shoulders so I'm now going to flatten off this area and then I'll show you what's next and she makes flat spots the shoulder the Tenon's see on next and then we're gonna mark out a tenon in that flat spot and then transfer those marks over to the other side okay now have a flat spot in this piece of wood this is level in both orientations tenon is going to go down through here or inside it so this crack is going to get pulled together because it's split pretty bad so 10 and sorry our mortise will be in here tenon will slide through and then we'll pin it okay now that my tenon is marked out I'm going to order tools through here but then I'm going to take this this little tool here that made which is essentially piece of wood with a line in it to string lines with some screws attached you know drop those lines through that hole line that up with those lines on top and then that will try to throw my lines underneath so I'm going to do that now this now goes through these two holes this little do-hickey jig here get through there and then that lines up with that line then there as long as that's lined up there when we transfer to the bottom we can then redraw this as the bottom slide same as you've done on top and then we can come in from both sides and get the get a mortise parallel face not my laugh I like that mistake straight say I'm just chiseling out these I'm going to you know make a distinguished line so my lines get rubbed out I stand there were more points are transferred everything underneath drawn the same thing underneath and I would just go hog out all this with hard to draw on the wood because of it's wet but essentially the mortises is drawn on the underside as well if you can see it I'm not sure you can okay just test fit in getting pretty close you've got few gaps with a few tight spots but it is in in there he's going to slide in so just take a bit more off we're trying to latch it into it all right so it's going to fit us in through which sheeting the structure to pull it in so I made it way too long at the down purpose just give a piece of wood to do wrong anyway so I made it to go just cut it cut it off yeah good nice
