Nice work!!! Great to see that some tradesmen still care about their craft.👍

Surely the bottom rail should be the same thickness as the middle rail.
That way the t&g covers the bottom rail and sheds water.

Brilliant. Great to watch a true tradesman do his job . Thanks for sharing. 👌

Beautiful gate would be more than happy to have it hanging in my house let alone outside, true craftsmanship.

[shaneproctor]

This is definitely skill, awesome demonstration.

Stunningly good job, on just a side gate.

[MatthewCooperreference]

Great skills. 👍 just wish I'd listened to my shopfitter/joiner father all those years ago and got a trade like him. I would have saved myself a fortune over the years!!

Nice work mate, @ 19:00 is this when the customer calls and says “ I was thinking maybe 1900 high would be better ! “

You are a good builder... that's quite the DIY project! I design outdoor woodwork... sealing those joints was a solid move. Nice work.

[jonathanwhitmore]

Nice job using fairly basic tools. And well explained.

[kendom]

Absolutely top job. Thanks for making this video

[davidoreilly]

Such a helpful and detailed video - thanks for taking the time to make and share it.

[tinytonymaloney]

Absolutely massive WOW!!! A damned fine gate I would be proud to make myself, lovely job that.
Never seen that saw before that you cut the horns off with, I thought you called it a 'trap' saw???
Brilliantly made video, more please 🎉🎉🎉

[TheXeroid]

That is a thing of beauty! Lovely work!

[annalinnls]

Great tutorial! Your instructions were easy to follow.

A framed, ledge and braced gate.
If you haven't got the time or inclin to tenon use half lap joints and nail on the rebates, the external glues now available are stronger than the wood itself.
Dowel the half laps and hang the gate relatively to the inclination of the brace if only one is used.

[brianhill]

Those tongue and groove boards will probably swell and bow in the winter, in stead of cutting a rebate you should have milled in a groove so the boards had room to expand without bowing.

[Wornout]

Just a little thing, dad used to drive the dowling rods through a block of wood with a nail stickin a bit into the hole leaving a groove in the rod, then the glue had some where to escape. Seems sensible

[colinmottram]

What wood are you using for this, and is it treated? What finish would you recommend to last outside in the UK?

[ivanfinlay]

a damn good effort considering the conditions back to basics chippy work just wish i had ten to do
