Making A Tongue & Groove Blanket Chest

like my last dimensional lumber project. I’m going to making this chest out of nothing but she by boards by pine that are kiln dried and I purchased a couple Weeks ago and have been sitting in my shop and also dislike the last project is going to be a lot of waste with us because. I’m cutting out the centerpiece area of each one of these boards to leave me with the quarter some material on either side and I ’m also cutting out all of them knots too hopefully not have any defects in this entire project everything first with the miter saw everything down to its final dimensions before. I actually start the assembly process rail and stile framed pieces. I am think you should see my reviews . I need to work on the panel pieces of this is what happens stick material which is way too thick to playing down three eighths of an inch some want to run at the table saw joint two faces a joint her release all the pieces and half that point. I conclude the panels together result a couple of the pieces at the bandsaw getting some really undesirable results because the blades on the switch over here to the table salt take a little bit longer results panels down working with two pieces together at the very end after all of this project as . We’ll as top panel and I don’t want to run this disclaimer again so make sure that the top stayed perfectly flush leaves floating candles as. We’ll sure that the guests of my house get a good night’s rest as. We’ll so this time my bunk bed gets the upgrade Lisa mattresses are luxury mattresses ordered online and shipped directly to your door which means no more ways to time dealing with the hassle of department stores open a box of the vacuum sealed bag and watch expand to its original size which is actually pretty cool, so I’ve been sleeping on a Lisa matches for about a month now and I really like it but even more importantly than that my wife likes it and as the saying goes happy wife happy life to make your new mattress experience 5 % risk free now for every time. I trust is sold at Lisa’s donating one to those in need only shelter and they also want to get all of my friends watching this video $ off their next mattress purchase just go to recent he’s in Lisa and usually promo code J check out this release that you are also know that. I sent you thanks julie Silver Sponsor whose video thanks to all of you for being awesome to get back in the shop and finish this project the whole assembly really quick to determine the size of the bottom but also to determine and basically just and make the list a traded his removal which is actually beneficial because. I’m not entirely sure how his house and if there is on the top of this entirely can be removed without disturbing those items and then be replaced later now as it is replaced. I want to have some type of indexing system to where. I just sent some places won’t move around or just easily return to the same spot, so I’ve left all four of these legs a quarter-inch proud of all for the sides and I ’ll make some corresponding shallow vortices on the bottom side of . I’m not too concerned with wood movement of the lid interfering with the placement of these morris’s because it made all of the rain live blew up action should be an erection .

SketchUp: Mortise And Tenon Sofa Table

today when making a super simple sofa table with the emphasis on. We’ll have ness and tenon joinery and then also a layout diagram for the dimensional lumber used after that so from the origin are correct angle. I’m going to draw a perimeter boundary box first so it’s drop and long as the red green plain a rectangle the first mentions my longer the juice hola stipend comments enter the battery box and know that. I can. I cannot exceed inches left to right and I don’t want to go more than sixteen front to back be four push pull up thirty inches center. I want the height of the table inches and space bar click and delete all of these faces and pressing Delete on the keyboard after clicking. I just want the perimeter of Honor box not all those faces. I also don’t want the access to be shown so let’s go to view and turn off the axis and before make this a component was pressed alpha line from the corner to corner making a diagonal along the bottom side of these faces again and this just gives me a center point that.I’m building this model so spacebar triple click to select all of the Year to all of the geometry g component enter as draw the top first and the top like. I said it’s going to be inches front to back there’s evenly divided by four so there be four planks in this particular panel each inches in width so from the top of our four rectangles and just constraining to this opposite edge over here the dimensions say my second is the shorter of the two soap scum off or enter to modify the second dimension only people push pull this push this down for thickness of counter space bar triple click g component enter this is one of the four boards that will make up the top and and was just select a color to designate different parts of using materials which is also accessed by your paint bucket or pressing B as in bucket on the keyboard or move controlling that populist copy one right next to the other and then press X multiply that copy three times that is my inch top panel that will be glued up and I ’m forcing d dimension it’s a custom keyboard shortcut. I have a couple set up at all used in this video suppress window preferences to set up custom keyboard shortcuts if you choose to do, so I use d dimension H for hire and you for unhide quite often when click one hide it with H button. you’ve run hide so those are probably be using in this particular video struggle eggs from the bottom corner offer rectangle and dropped a record ten women in and then type in  hunter it’s a two and a half inch square leg people push-pull has pulled us to the bottom of the top pieces. I am going to cut the geometry But I want to get all the legs in the appropriate orientation first so its press spacebar triple click g component enter this is one of the legs moving let’s put it this way two inches enter and push it in the green direction one inches are one inch this gives me an overhang on the left side of two inches and an overhang on the front side of what. I want that same ratio to be applied to all four legs so let’s first for some color on to this peace green is fine go to a side of you and I ’m for move control most populous copy of the front to the back and then push it in that same one inch inch overhang on the front and the back now just because. I moved it doesn’t mean it’s an appropriate orientation as it stands if I’d edit this part and at the inside face it and it’s the outside face of the black back leg. I want the inside to adjust with the inside outside with the outside, so I need to flip this along the direction. I drug it when. I moved this moved along with green access so it’s right click or redirection expression say right click along the green and now if I edit the inside the inside will be updated We’ll and two very easily get the right side of the legs in the appropriate orientation and distance from the edge of oil to do is click all shift click to select both of these cue for rotate and this midpoint right here. I can rotate degrees from left to right price control of my up copy and now if. I edit one of these inside faces all of the appropriate inside faces will be added as. We’ll excuse me and I’ll draw the straw the rails. I don’t need this boundary box anymore yes. I might need it so it’s actually just hired at the top faces ongoing or the top pieces. I’m leaving using a window to select only the top h hired and I can draw the rails so on this leg rectangle and drop a rectangle and I know that my first mentioned as the shorter of the two so the thicknesses . comic the light that’s the size Mario people push pull on the inside of this local your spacebar triple click g component enter m moving. I wanted to be in set by 8 inches from the legs same thing over here. We report our four rectangles draw this one and six comma . p for push-pull and pull it to this leg space bar triple click g component entertained for move and that’s pushing along the green access into the parked car to the projects point to five inches so let’s put some color on these these are different parts next up is yellow drop that and that so that is my long rail and sure that : I can click our space bar click hold shift click that one against them to select both of those Q take from this midpoint again and I can rotate these women eighty degrees to be in the back side and price controls copy and drop into place so now let’s hide this banner box joinery let’s also select all of the legs and hire them really quick let’s make these tendons double-click to edit this long for offsets come in three eighths of an inch and her and that means that if I came in three eighths of an inch from all sides the center tenant should be one half of an inch which it is grabbed at Centerpointe Dr Center faced push-pull destruction one-inch enter that’s my tendon and I don’t necessarily have to go to the back side to get the other tenants space bar click on this face move control company Nats constrained to the Red access illegal although back here and drop it off constraining this endpoint so it’s on that back face once. I drop it off it is still selected source press people push pull and push the stent in that direction and so that’s very easily that very easily made both tenants on both sides because one is a copy of the other it updated this back one over here as . We’ll space bar click to get out at the shore trail as. We’ll same exact process double that of part offset come in breeds of an inch space bar click the middle to selected push-pull the standout space bar click that face again move in this press Ctrl not copy constraining to the green access and drop it off on his back edge of therapy for push-pull its push it that direction one-inch interject same process and now what is a company which is back here is updated it as. We ll press you for unhide. I no longer needed this boundary buxman going to eat it clicking hier klicken hi all of those really quick basically just wanted to get the legs back , so We ‘ve got the attendance let’s cut the losses your breasts K for hidden lines and you can see all the hidden lines inside all the parts you can use that or in my case. I like to use this X-ray and I think that’s just a better visual representation of the hidden geometry let’s double clicked at the leg because We are about to make the now if . I need to draw on his back face but in this orientation that top face of the leg is in the ways of fibrous Arfa rectangle and start drawing,I’m not going on at backspace back there as you can see it just do it on the top side of the leg as it’s confirmed their price controls you to backup so instead of in order to draw on her back face you need to snap to these objects points object snaps in this case. I must nap to this and point over here pressing offer rectangle and snap down there same with this tenant over here basically. I’m drawing the shape of the tenants on the backside of the basis that. I cannot see the spacebar to only select press spacebar news that window to only select that face that. I just room and people push-pull and I can see that. I’m pulling this mortis in the place same thing over here its press spacebar and then use a window to only select this face that. I just drew push-pull not pull this one and the place over here so now. I have all of my morris’s and tenants cut for all my pieces and because. I rotate it all parts and change the orientation appropriately all of the geometry should be at all the joiner should be on the appropriate orientation for each one of the legs so it’s turned off the x-ray let’s hide the rails and as you can see the offset with this is our in the appropriate orientation for all of the legs unhide this, so We get back to where. We . We re and excuse me just to dress this up little bit. I’m going to use a couple papers on the legs to inside face tapers nothing fancy you can do some edge detail and all kinds of other stuff to dress this up a little bit this is just going to be a basic functional table is going to be very strong because the joinery so the tapirs the paper. I want is going to be on the two inside faces in this particular leg has the German side faces facing me, so I ’m going to edit this double click the part. I select this bottom edge hold shift to slip this bottom edges. We ll m move voters movies up the geometry it’s crazy. I want to press Ctrl backup copy and let’s go this direction inches enter that’s fine and I let’s make the the taper that just established the start of the taper grab this down here for moving this push it in the green direction there’s the start of the taper the paper ends one inch in the bottom of the legs cellectis other edge of here with the same thing and move this time. We ‘re going in the right direction that way one inch and her so now. We have a two sided tape around both inside faces of all the legs and they updated on the appropriate side for each individual eg that’s pretty much it for the big table you can get pretty fancy and come in here on the top of the rails and add you know in my case. I’m going to use hold down or tabletop hold down fasteners tabletop clips, so I can cut this line in here needed for this data when you need it for those all that stuff. I don’t care about the fine super fine details so this is the completed table let’s make a layout for couple things first let’s go two styles and change it to engineering style, so I have a white background and also remove the excess one more time and then let’s go to scenes and added a new scene called overview of this is my overview that way from somewhere else in the model. I can just press overview it comes right back to where. I was and you can see there is a an animation there. I don’t really care for the animations just drives me nuts so it’s got a model info which is window model info and I ’m just going to uncheck Enable scene transitions way that way if. I’m somewhere else and I go to an overview it’s instant that’s fine for me as go to a slightly top-down view and less grab all of this and from the right from a layup some reason not exactly sure why but let’s get this and a frame and got a camera parallel projection and We’re going to go with us slight top-down view not that much and make a new layout a new scene called left that way. I can instantly clicked back to overview and click to my lap so it’s completely out really quick and that it just means to start let’s move all of our pieces laid out flat on the same plane as the top click the leg taken as wrote it this way so that the deadly joinery is not shown here that the joinery has shown that adding detail to lay out that you don’t need to go this direction ninety degrees counter move and let’s move this into place it’s easier to press Ctrl for copy and copy these times X than it is to rotate and move all of the additional links, so I gotta four legs here same process with the rails you for roto the red Sun center and move and put this in the place and I ’m just going to snap it there and then make sure the whole of the edges are parallel it’s easier to copy one is to move the next one so there’s the copy and less click to delete that one the same thing with the yellow center rotating all these centres move put in place and just copy the one right there now. I still think that. I use cue for rotate but if you’re in the m move command see all these plus  points right here that will allow you to rotate while you’re in move command I always press cue for a day because if. I’m trying to move rotate this this small edge right the small face of here sometimes. I can’t snap to what. I need to step so it sometimes gets confusing moving and rotating all within the move command, so I just use the movement for move and rotate man for everything is on the same plane let’s press the top down view zoom out a little bit and I no longer want to have that like three quarter view that. I was in so let’s go to update this particular layout seen what material are. We going to be working with this is four inches so you can get these pieces out of a if you want to do these pieces are six inches so you have to go to buy or larger you can optimize for different sized number if you want book for me. I’ve got two buttons on hand so all of my stuff is going to be made from two buttons rectangle let’s just draw a two by then let’s press just draw a rectangle the first one is the longer the tuzla statement common . which is the dimensions of eighty by what click to delete these centres based that . We do not need space bar triple click to select all of the geometry for the July G four components interior and moving just moved away a little bit and then also expressed control for copy and Skype another one down here let’s just say enter X five centers and I . We have multiple to my tends to layout update this again sore back to where. We can come right back to this spot. I’ll put the pieces in the place in which the orientation in which they will be cut out. I know that if. I’m using it to buy typically the center area is the person. I’m going to avoid that so if. I put these in a place I’m going to be cutting them like so pretty much staying on the edges and removing the interior pieces slept all these improved control myself copy it’s easier to copy to when you already have them in the appropriate orientation now here this is a full hour inches this is a full ninety six inches minus the curve of the subway so this isn’t exactly inches But I just thought of something really quick and this will be a great example as to why. it’s best to in my opinion keep everything on schedule for both the layout and model, so I ’m going to make a change here and because all of these parts where a copy of the original overview model then all of these pieces will be updated as I make the changes and you’ll see you in just a second that these aren’t exactly that particular life let’s go back to the overview the genes that have to make isn’t just remembered that my longest class has a forty one and one-half inch space inside the the jaws of the clamps. I can’t claim anything longer than that easily anyway so my distance from this point to this point is more than the forty one and a half inches of the clamps when. I clamp up this particular assembly right here that the two legs and then the fun of long rails front and back so instead of this press TV tape measure from here let’s go in this direction that same distance . inches center and I need a need to move these legs so much selection window select legs and this particular short rail m move  this and my line my guideline right there in the bottom right corner you see the link is two and a half inches let’s remember that so it’s dropped off right there and what. I moved here. I need to subtract from the top source double-click to edit the top piece use a window to select the face that. I cannot see on that edge people push-pull was pushed us in that same 8 inches center space bar click to get out now. I need to modify the loan rails double-click that long rallies at window to select all of that geometry on the right hand side for moving this push this and . inches under the front rail is the appropriate length for the clamp but when. I rotated in these pieces front to back this this corner became this corner so this is appropriate length now because it updated. I just need to move in place let’s go this direction . hunter and and my guidelines so now. I I did was shrinking the whole table by two and a half inches to fit within the constraints of my particular clamps because this is a copy whatever. I did to these updated on the layout and as you can see that same two and a half inch length was removed from each one of these top pieces and I didn’t put this in a place yet but it is still moving averages as. We ll so that’s why. I like to keep everything in SketchUp before the layout because if you. We re to make the overview make the model and export all of your dimensions manually into another program then you make some changes then off to do to change those dimensions as. We’ll into the other program here everything’s updated and in this case. I don’t even have to update the model because there’s no more efficient use of this cut anyway let’s work on the next pieces let’s go with these legs now take into consideration his legs or two and a half inches square this this number is one and a half inches thick so it’s going to take two of these shapes for one individual legs so instead of forming representative you need total of eight of these represented over here so let’s move this in a place down into place typically the center point is that the satellite is the path of the tree setup here a bit of the board plus. We have some not stored around so while this does look like there’s a lot of waste it does give me the troom to work around the pieces I don’t want such as knots and the centerpiece, so I ’ve got these in a proper orientation these. I know that. I need legs so grab these moving up copy US companies so might there press X to enter a copy that that’s all. I can fit on this particular board again leaving some waste material for cutting out in knots and such as let’s grab these two controllers copy and there. We go that’s the legs these two pieces equal one leg one leg one leg total of four legs let’s grab this and move and drop it down here something like that be there is the second one right there and these can be moved up to there somewhere now because the center line is this an employee of these boards is somewhat area than some of these may contain the person or a mage used to cut these particular pieces on boards that may not have the piss and there but this gives me plenty of room to cut around defects and and say that that kind of things but it tells me that. I could delete these two and even with little bit of generous room all of these will fit on four boards and honestly I’d be really pushing it if. I was to try and put all of these three boards so in my case that’s an extra $ for the project not that big of a deal for better grand selection and all that good stuff so once. I have this the way that. I want. I can use the dimension tool to add dimensions and such and all that stuff about want to but basically update the layout and basically this gives me a reference diagram for the layout for the pieces and an overview of the completed project any changes that. I make here will be updated on later so that’s it is super simple table should be pretty strong with mortise and tenon joinery functional big beefy long lasting table so hopefully hopefully you enjoyed this may be picked up a couple things thanks for watching guys have a great day and I ’ll talk to expand how to choose Best Biscuit joiner or best saw.
