Craftsman Style Bookends: Episode 3
Posted 25 January 2017
This is an episode in a free series. Want to watch it? It is free to do so, you just need to log into the site, and you can enjoy this video and many other videos we think you will love.
In this section Paul discusses the optional decorative features. He firstly lays out and cuts out the half moon recess using the brace and bit and the coping saw. Then Paul cuts square recesses and the corresponding domed squared buttons. This requires a high degree of accuracy to get completely square holes to the exact width of the chisel. The final step is to cut the buttons to shape and size, before gluing them in place.
The technique of fast-forward through repetitive operations vs skipping totally is well appreciated. I feel it allows one to review the process in an additional informative way. By the way, love the music and overall production!
I’d really like to know the artist/title of that music. I love it!
His name is Henry Horrell. Best way to hear more of his music is on his Soundcloud page.
I think the music and the phase of Paul’s work go so well.
Good job video editors!
Reassuring to see coping saw is a bit “fiddly”, even in the hands of a master. Video production “values” have become supurb… well done!
Just about flawless…
D’oh! I did it! I put the buttons on the wrong face! Oh well, now my bookends will have buttons on both faces.
Thank you for the lesson.

Hi Jim,
This was previously a paid project which we are releasing over the next few weeks as a free project. Episode 3 will be released as a free episode on Friday and the final episode will be released on the following Friday.
Kind Regards,
Izzy
For some reason I cannot view episode 3 due to “its privacy settings”. Is that an error on your side or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.
Hello Gordon, I’ve contacted you via email to see if we can work out what’s going on. All the best, Mark
Hello Gordon,
that happens (too), if the Referrer header doesn’t match the expectations of the vimeo.com website (which hosts the video for woodworkingmasterclasses.com).
If you’re using the uMatrix Plugin, there’s the “Spoof Referrer” setting active on default.
Here I wrote how to turn off that setting: https://woodworkingmasterclasses.com/videos/craftsman-style-bookends-info-page/craftsman-style-bookends-episode-2/#comment-303851
Hope that helps,

Wonderful !
