Cutting dovetail joints on the pantorouter

[jamiemenuez]

great job. my brain hurts now. :)

Conhece maquinas CNC?Sai fora dessa vida amigo.

[TheThoridian]

why hasnt one of the large woodworking manufacturers made one of these to sell to the general public with a few modifications and upgrades?

[k9uprising]

@TheThoridian Because they probably can't figure out how to put a guard on it! Too much liability!

[VladimirXYX]

Build one, cause it's cool.

[mightywombat]

I find myself watching this machine work and wondering what sort of dovetail results you could get on it using your screw advance box joint jig instead of a template. Love the machines, Matthias! Keep up the amazing work!

[lrntvld]

Congratulations on your 100th youtube video upload. I'm busy making the pantorouter. I'll keep you posted!

@TirianB he already did a strength test in that direction but that was with halfblind dovetails from a classic jig versus the boxjoint: woodgears.ca/dovetail/index.ht­ml the dovetails lost

[skipplet]

@TirianB I was wondering the same thing. You showed in another video that the finger joints are stronger and easier to make.

What are the advantages of a dovetail joint? Aesthetics?

[ratchet1freak]

can you do a strength comparison between the finger joints of your screw advance box joint jig and these dovetails (once you got out the gaps and such)?

[jims1964285]

if you ever come through Manitoba you should let me know. I have so many questions

[hutadut]

i have seen a machine much like your pantorouter used for etching designs into a surface

[Matthiaswandel]

I personally don't preer them, but it still makes sense to explore doing it.

[Uzair980]

You sir are a genius.

[stygn]

Isn't it always a good idea to let the joins stick out a bit? Both the tails and slots in this case.. You could always sand them down, but you can't sand them up if you made them to small ; ) I Just love this machine! Your other creations are great too, but this one is.. Just.. Amazing! And it has a super epic name!! One could easily use that name for some crazy device in a Sci-Fi movie ; )

[themaskedcrusader]

"Build one, cause it's cool!"

I'm totally going to build one of these.

[CROshalashaska]

I would like to be your apprentice!!

[HighGuy512]

6:27 Careful~! ;)

[gstarbob]

this is so fucking exciting :)

[NeitSotm]

Have you ever thought about working metal?

[web4deb]

Could you make an indexing template so you could make the teeth for some gears?

[Serostern]

Loved that closeup bandsaw shot!

[Nososhell]

Thanks for sharing , MW. An amazing device with lots of potential. Gratz. 

[reatard132]

Your a freekin genius

[eveningniteshade]

that's crazy!



[trungveso]

Matthiaswandel, I love your channel, I always wait for your new post! :) but, I ALWAYS sense the danger when you use the band-saw! Could you invent something to fully protect the hand while using band-saw?

[SimTune]

can you make a new machine? were you can shave wood into the right thicknes?

[Matthiaswandel]

That would be called a thikness planer. They don't cost much.

[OlliKochi]

That can´t be the last version ;-)

[EuroPowa]

The man loves his dove tail joints.

[ratboy2713]

Is there a specific reason why you choose a system that works on a 2:1 ratio as opposed to a 1:1 ratio. A key duplicator works pretty much on the same principle, but produces a 1:1 result. Are there difficulties scaling that technology to working on wood?

[Matthiaswandel]

Yes. If the ratio was 1:1, it wouldn't be a pantograph and there would be no offset. The whole concept of the machine requires a reduction of some ratio.

[roman3of23]

Matthias, any possibility you could demonstrate making a wooden gear template? Could this be used as a tool for building wood gear clocks? Perhaps not because of the limited distance you can go vertically?

[Matthiaswandel]

I have been thinking about making a pantograph to make gears. Catch is, you'd still need to make a gear to trace out with it, just that you could make the pattern bigger, and copy it many times. But usually I just need one or two gears, and those are so quick to cut on the bandsaw that I consider this to be a solved problem. I have a video on making gears already.

[stickerer14]

Deine Videos inspirieren mich immer wieder aufs neue etwas aus Holz zu machen, aber die Möglichkeiten/Maschinen die du hast, habe ich leider nicht...

[Error081688]

It's a brilliant machine that you have made.

[immemous]

why your are using metryc system, is in USA allways use inches system!

[19Sander62]

@immemous

It's not all about the USA you know.

I prefer the metric system over the inches system.

I also thought I heard that the rest of the world is trying to convert to the metric system, I'm not sure though.

[Matthiaswandel]

Because calculating with fractional inches is a rediculous way to work.

[immemous]

@Matthiaswandel you are right, im an architect and i hate to use inches system... congratulations for all the woodowrking projects...

[wvb93]

@Matthiaswandel you do all this crazy smart stuff with wood but you cant spell ridiculous? :D

[cavedude80]

@wvb93 its the interweb, grammer dont count

[Damaku250]

@immemous Because he lives in Canada!

[iVolkswagen]

@immemous Because Metric rules!

[FangFiftyFive]

Very, VERY impressive.

[espulu]

How are those dovetail joints usually made? Is there a specific machine for them or are they made by hand?

[Matthiaswandel]

Many different ways. Just google it.

[69soulstone]

@espulu Old-timer way; Handsaw and chisel, more modern way; Handrouter and dovetail template, Most Modern; CNC-machine

[hypnolobster]

Hurray! I was waiting for this video.

[JorgeDX3]

Did you study Industrial Design?

[Matthiaswandel]

Has nothing to do with studying. School isn't really conducive to inventing. Ever heard or an inventor that attributed their abilities to formal education?

[JorgeDX3]

@Matthiaswandel So everything you do, you come up with by yourself? Amazing. Keep it up.

[zeratul575]

@Matthiaswandel wanna know the great inventor that became filthy rich... and as a boy got kicked out of school because he never stopped asking questions...

he is the man that made artifical lighting cheap and safe

[guopeneferozz]

thanks for all.

[nelson1tom]

this thing is brilliant dude.

[hondannyboy]

Amazing!
