came up with this method to accurately cut a mortise and tenon into round dowels and join them together.

Unlike a dowel joint, all of the machining references are perpendicular surfaces, making alignment easier and reducing the chance of error. It also creates a stronger joint than a typical dowel connection.

Material: Beech

By using magnets as the hinge pins, I created a removable wooden hinge.

As with my previous designs, the back remains perfectly flush, giving it a clean and refined appearance.

The magnets turned out to be surprisingly strong, providing more holding power than I expected and functioning very well in practice.

Wood: Pine and walnut.

I wondered if wedges could be applied to a cross joint, so I came up with this design.

As the wedges are driven in, the internal tenons expand and lock the joint in place.

The thread angle was approximately 2°.

Surprisingly, no guide pin was needed.

Chamfering it as shown in the video gives it a more authentic bolt-and-nut appearance.

Even without making a jig, you can create a temporary template using CA glue and masking tape, allowing this type of machining to be done with high accuracy 👍

In fact, when routing end grain, the cutting resistance is very low, making the operation remarkably smooth.

I tried to build a wood lathe with the simplest design possible using a drill.
The only special parts are a bearing and a bolt, and it can probably be built in about 30 minutes 👍
The final project was a peg, but I'll share that video another time.

Just a wooden block… until you press it.

This hidden coat hook was carved from a single block of wood, so the grain continues through the entire mechanism.

A relatively simple way to join 3 pieces of wood.

In this video, I mainly used a miter saw for the cuts and finished it with some trimming using a router.
It reminded me how accurate machine work can be 👍
