I do have to say those ancient carpenters even kept secret the fact they had electricity to use with their routers. They are truly amazing! And they kept the secret so well hidden all these years only to be exposed. Oh and I guess they also were able to make the electric motors for the routers and much more. Those guys were the best! We should all follow the example of these 'ancient' carpenters. Good thing for the internet to expose all the dirty secrets they hid from us.

This one was subtle. For those that missed it, the ancient secret was that with enough clickbait you can get a C&C machine and not worry about making a jig.

[walterpickford]

Wow I'm amazed! I truly am. I didn't know that ancient carpenters had electric routers.

Wow! who knew ancient carpenters had steel nuts and bolts and even routers!

I literally grew up watching my father create pendelum granfather clock cabinets (and all sorts of other intricate furniture) with mother of pearl inlays and moulded doors with glass panel inserts finishing up with traditional French Polish and stains, all mostly done with hand tools and devices he designed and made himself. Even the glue he used was prepared in his workshop. I can still recall the peculiar aroma.
I wish I had been able to visually record the progress of his work for YT but this was all sixty+ years ago and he had done his apprenticeship in Edinburgh in the early 1900s.

At last, you've solved the mystery of how ancient carpenters controlled their electric routers! This should be on Discovery Channel.

This craftsman has beautifully demonstrated that with a well stocked workshop and infinite time on your hands you can make a flimsy wooden thing that does the same as a metal jig you can buy for 10s of pounds. Ideal if you don't have a queue of real project to work on.

"Why did ancient carpenters keep these secrets?" Watching this won't tell you. They're truly safe with Will Wood.

Those ancient carpenter secrets just robbed me of 3 minutes of my life.

[williamwatson]

True carpenter wouldn't be putting their fingers in harms way when cutting 😂

[ohkqkxf]

Because ancient carpenters don't have any Electric Machines.

[olsonspeed]

Perfect tool for installing outlet boxes in the Pyramids.

[macp]

Nice tool, short and to the point build, but clickbait title. Nothing about that was an ancient secret

[bryansmith]

when I was a cabinet maker 20 years ago. we had metal jigs that did the same thing and had dust collection. They didn't exactly invent the wheel here.

[keithharding]

Not only did those "ancient carpenters have electricity, they also had plywood, routers, table saws and a whole heap of precision secret equipment to help them. This is actually a rather elegant version of steadily available router jig. Shame about the title!

[dougpisik]

I like this jig. Great for quick setup. Seems worth making. That said, if only the ancient carpenters had wingnuts, it would be perfect.

I tend to skip over videos or stories whose titles or descriptions convey the idea of recovering some lost ancient secret or wisdom. Most often, the idea is nothing more than a bad idea that deserves to remain in the garbage bin of history.

But the still-frame picture was compelling enough to trigger my imagination, and I saw a potential application for my low-budget woodworking "shop". That still-frame was sufficient to motivate me to put the description aside and at least commit to watching the first 30-45 seconds of the video. Since I appreciated how you walked us through the process, I realised this could be a fun project to work on and watched the video to the end. I read two pages of comments, even using Google Translate to see if anyone had a useful suggestion to improve or modify the project. I left the peanut gallery and watched the video to the end a second time to make notes of how I could make use of some of the hardwood I have sitting on my wood rack.

Thank you for walking us through your process. You have motivated me to get off my duff to build something useful for my shop.

[pauletxfish]

wow ! didnt know ancient carpenters had table saws, routers, drill press

[rodneyfrost]

Is there to be a part 2 in which the secret is divulged ?
