Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds ukposts.infoUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.

This is not just a gate... This is art!

The most expensive and incredibly beautiful "dog" gate ever!!! Outstanding

I’d sooner come and look at the workmanship of your farmhouse roof repairs, gate, barn doors etc than visit an art gallery and admire the sculptures and paintings hanging on the wall. It’s also very therapeutic watching the details of your gate fabrication come together step by step. Take a bow, both of you.

Your work is a credit to your dedication to the task in hand. When i was 7 years old the last remaining gardener at my house in England ,he was 86 years old, i believe at the time took me into the village to get a new gate for the vegatable garden. The same gate you have made. HALF that sise In the village was the wheel wright and next door the black smith. Ted ordered the gate and they made the gate in oak its there to this very day 71 years ago. When the gate was finished we went back and ted paid the wheel wright. The gate was next door at the back smiths .. The black smith was awaiting instructions to what fixutes we needed. The styles were all fitted with black rivets big fat ones and hamered through. Then ends were hot and having past through the gate piened over to complete the seal. Water was poured over the hot end to stop it burning the wood. The hot end was facing up so the black smith couls correctly pien it over. ALL the iron work was black iron dipped in thick oil to preserve it. No bolts were used ,i think because they were expensive and iron was cheaper. I hope this tells you a little of ENGLAND long past. my kind regards RogerH.

Entertainment, artistry, absolutely amazing carpentry! Please keep making more of these incredible videos.

Man, that oak is so green! It’s amazing the tenon-cutting bit worked at all!

A cabinet maker in my youth, 1946-47 did this kind of work Mr Pratt, as I remember. He would allow me to watch him if I kept out of the way and didn’t ask questions until he took a rest break. Only power tools were a table saw, band saw and joiner. This young man is truly a master woodworker. Mr Pratt, for the privilege of allowing me to watch would let me sweep the floor.

The style/design is simple and modest without being uninteresting. The end result also goes to show how just how far good craftmanship can make simple things stand out aesthetically. A lot of items people think of as "functional" are actually seen/looked upon more than they are used, more than any painting in your home, and so they should be beautiful.

I am in awe of these guys. I’m 75 and remember my grandfather who was a cabinet maker…so absorbing.

She's adorable and absolutely deserved to have such a gorgeous and sturdy gate for her safety.

I have done some woodworks in the past but this woodwork plan ukposts.infoUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG helps me do much in a far lesser time than i used to do i have already built several projects with this plan and i intend to do many more soon. Thank you so much!

This one was new for me. what a joy. This is truly wood art. All wooden joints are perfect - a beautiful result, that can be admired for decades.

Your family’s skills and attention to detail are to be highly commended. It is an absolute pleasure to know there are still those in this world truly appreciate the beauty of wood and hard work. You make all you do a soothing for the soul. Thank you.

Your dad is a Wizard. Treasure him. You have good skills as well. It is one thing to have nice tools. It is even better to know how to use them. Thanks for the video.

An absolute pleasure to watch two Craftsmen at work, no nails screws or glue,just pure skill,👌👍BK.

I love how cleanly and professionally you guys work, awesome job.

That gate is a wood working piece of art. Magnificent!

I love how you point out every component you are currently working in. Thats a nice and helpful feature. Well deserved subscription.

What a magnificent gate! It is a delight to watch a father teach a son such valuable skills. Thank you!

Your videos and your craftsmanship are a joy to see. I've watched about 10 of your videos since finding the roof restoration video a few days ago. Amazing work 👍

I so enjoyed watching. My dad used his carpentry skills as well when he did this kind of work. So wonderful to see y’all doing it the older way.

At the risk of your laughter, I have to say that if you made this item for me, I would have it set up in my living room to be displayed as a work of art. The workmanship is so beautiful. Truly you are a master craftsman. (I mean to include all that worked on it.) I love to watch skilled craftsmen work. There is a familiarity with the wood in the way they handle it that is a joy to watch. Thank you for letting me watch.

I so enjoy watching your videos. You and your dad work so well together. Your work is outstanding!

For me it’s not a gate, it’s a piece of art! 👍

Just beautiful. I will never look at a timber gate the same way again.

You guys realize that the dog can still get through that thing, don't you? Beautiful work carpenters. I do concrete form work in NYC (high-rises, bridges, tunnels, etc....) hence seeing your manipulation of hand tools to get the material where it has to be, to such precise dimensions(you're lucky if I go to the 1/8th and when I do, don't push it) and seeing how you locked everything up with minimal hardware and your structure was sound was a testimony to your skill set. I'll rewatch this video to steal your techniques. I learned something. Thank you.

I love your videos and work. I always reminisced about the glorious keel gates with the special handle that you could open and close from horseback. We found the same plans you used some years ago and were lucky enough to know a carpenter with skills to build this gate for us. It is our pride and joy.

Well done! That is really beautiful. There's a seamless blend of the old with the new. Looking forward to your next project.

That was by far one of the best projects I’ve ever seen on UKposts well done your dog has a great master

Because it was such a beautifully made gate I was waiting with baited breath to see it being fully opened and closed!!!

I just love watching you bring the wood from bowed to a beautiful, professional item. The door, the steps and the farmhouse gate are all so beautifully made and hand crafted, it's just amazing to me. I love your videos. I see there are more of you; which I'm going to watch. I love this father and son team.

I just hope the dog appreciates the hard work and craftsmanship that went into his loss of freedom.

A beautiful job that is a credit to the designer and the builders. A joy for ever!

I'm so glad that you chose to make the wood fence according to the era of the barn. It looks the part! Fancy & useful.

That gate drawing is magnificent. In structure, it is correct, in that the diagonal brace is placed correctly, running from top of the free end of the gate to base of the side that is suspended on the hinge. The effect of this is that the weight places the diagonal in compression, and in doing so prevents the gate from sagging. All too often I have seen gates where the diagonal is placed the other way around, with it being in tension -- the weight of the gate pulling everything apart, and the gate then sags. It also appears that this gate is of mortice and tenon construction, with bolts in various places for additional structural integrity. Well done!

Doggo at the end confused, wondering "why all this work if I ended-up outside anyways???". Beautiful gate.

Ok! I’ve spent the entire morning watching your videos. I’m truly amazed at your work. I’m a designer in historic preservation here in New Orleans Louisiana “USA”. My last project was a 230 french creole sugar plantation. So many techniques you used are familiar here,especially the French home. What a talented man your are!!!!

I really like the little pictorial legend you've provided in the lower left corner. It helps viewers understand where we are in the process. Thank you.

ONe of the best carpentry videos on UKposts. Each step is shown with just the right detail and time. The icon in the lower left corner shows what piece is being worked on. The result is a very lovely gate. Well done!

I was gonna say “They don’t make gates like that anymore”, but then you proved me wrong. Wonderful!

I once saw a description of building a gate and the holes for the bolts were drilled undersize and a bar of the correct dimension was being heated red hot in a small fire (ideal in the weather you were working in). This was then forced through the hole, charring the timber to reduce the chance of rot inside the hole. I loved the video, thanks and cheers from Tasmania.

Wow, the gate turned out wonderful, it's a work of ART by it self. Great job.

Well done guy's! There's nothing better than seeing someone who makes a product the right way, there's nothing more enjoyable than watching someone finally make something to last a lifetime!!!. Not only is it a great gate but it will do exactly what you intend it to do unless the dog decides to become an escape artist!!!👍🐕🚜

Beautifully made, and its design is perfect for the setting!

I judge woodworking by 3 things - quality of design, quality of material and quality of execution. You passed all 3. Simply wonderful work.

I find your videos extremely relaxing - My ear says your wind chimes were the same ones we had at my family home... Respect to your knowledge/expertise in your field...

I think the dog is doing his best to not slip through the slats of the gate in order to show his respect for his masters who spent so much time building this beautiful gate.

Beautiful work gentlemen! I really enjoyed this journey with you.

Loved it. Simple tools, nice project, great effect

I am not a wood worker but greatly appreciate a beautiful piece! Would LOVE to have 2 of those for my driveways! Fantastic job on the beautiful gate!

Give one person tools and they cut lumber, give another tools are they create magnificent beauty and art. Wonderful.

Awesome piece of craftsmanship! Well done guys.

The most beautiful gate I've ever seen. Well done.

What a thing of Beauty This is true craftsmanship Your gift to mankind is your skill and the pleasure people get from fine craftsmanship. Thanks

Such craftsmanship. Wow. Norm Abrams would be proud of you two.

Gorgeous gate! I didn't know I could like a gate so much

What you have built here is in fact ''A Bedfordshire farm gate'' in the days of smaller farm machinery and when the horse was the power sauce , each County or Shire, had its own very distinctive design of gate. Some time in early 1980s. I was at the Buckingham county show. A gentleman in his late 80s was displaying scale models of all the gates of England. Sadly little interest was being shown by mostly a younger generation farming at the time. I had a very enlightening conversation with this gentleman about the subject. He was a mine of information. Sadly now long lost.

I took the liberty of buying you, and your work mate a light ale. Thank you. “Imitation is the highest form of flattery”. I shall be giving it a go this weekend with some catalpa wood from a tree we had to cut down last year as it was pressing against the neighbor’s house. I had a mobile sawmill chap come and rough cut the trunk. I have already built a short fence and shall be making a 36 inch wide gate. We lack gates with history or style here. I, with your help, shall attempt to change that. Graham Whatley, Louisville Kentucky.

Beautiful workmanship and a great video. Love the NO Background Music..

Nice to see this level of craftmanship, impressive job!

Absolutely stunning!!

I love UKposts when you find the right channels and yours is definately one of those. I find your videos relaxing and inspiring to watch. Here in Portugal there is a saying, "pouca e pouca" which means step by step or little by litte.

True craftsmen! All that needs saying. Excellent!

32:35 stunning result. Nicely done! Great skills.

Gorgeous! I haven't seen a new one like that in a while.

Its incredible how strong, malleable and beautiful wood can be. Love your work

What a time to be alive! A dog named Rafa!! I love It!!

It's a thing of beauty....Thanks for sharing. 👍🏽😊

Eine sehr schöne Idee und die Umsetzung ist perfekt. Super handwerkliche Arbeit. Respekt.

That oak is so beautiful. The design and workmanship are incredible

Another spectacular gateway!!! Love watching you working, gentlemen - you are wonderful craftsmen! 😊

Thanks for sharing the idea. The cross brace is very-very clever solution. Keep the frame square and prevent from the vertical distorsion. I'm totaly impressed ! :)

Waited so long for a new one, thanks.

What a gate. Beautiful work. Can't even begin to imagine how tired you are at days end. Makes one appreciate things like this when you see it.

Oh my goodness a work of art truly is

Great watching all the craftsmanship in yr videos , especially the carpentry. Reminds me of my grandad and the traditional tools he used too, many of which we still have. Much as I like this gate, I think my favourite has to be your roofing project. Well done.

Hi Guys! Beautiful work! I was really wishing you had a large bandsaw the first 5:00min or so... LOL I really enjoy watching your vids. We are restoring an old 'coeur de ferme' in the Alsace. We did document our work with vids - though we do have a lot of pics. We've finished the house and most of the exterior/structural work on the barn and an additional outbuliding using mainly traditional materials and methods. We are now finishing the interior of the barn and turning the outbuilding into a guest house. Look forward to more of your vids!

Je vois et ressens à quel point tu aimes le bois, c'est pour moi aussi le matériau le plus inspirant. Tu as vraiment de très bonnes idées et inspirations pour créer quelque chose que l'on ne voit pas tous les jours, mais que l'on n'achète pas non plus - ce sont souvent ou toujours des pièces uniques et étonnantes.

I have often wondered why none of the blade manufacturers have produced a better demolition or “Saws-All” blade with the aggressively sharp Japanese style teeth. Absolutely beautiful work as ever Carl

Well this was a perfect start to my morning.

love the result ! Best regards from good old germany !

Geez....what a work of art!!!

Your Dad must be proud to see his skills and talents passed along to you. I would be proud if you were my son. Lovely work.

If you want to cut a curve from thick material without a band saw, cut a template with a jig saw from tempered masonite, sand it fair, attach it to your stock. Use locating marks to be able to attach it to the exact corresponding spot on the other side. Use a long (2"), 1/2" dia. top bearing pattern cutting bit in a good router to cut your shape from each side. Result will be a perfectly square and accurate cut requiring very little sanding.

Wow that is one beautiful gate! Great craftsmanship! A hell of a great job...but you already know that😁. No sarcasms meant by my comment...I just hope you know how good you really are...because you deserve a lot of praise for your work. Thank you for sharing.

Cracking gate! I remember being young and making the same style gate for the top of our drive way with me old man. Those were the days ! Good work!!

A pleasure to see your movies. Your work is so beautifull clean ! Allways mastercheafs

That truly is a thing of great beauty, well done!

Ps. I should say , I think a true Bedfordshire gate had full length cross bars. Not as you have them. But a beautiful gate whatever its called. Very well done. a true craftsman.

Beautiful work! That gate is a perfect addition to the building.

The gate came out very beautiful, thank you for sharing!

Très beau travail, félicitations 👏🏻

Your gate is truly a work of art.

Patience and skill. Skill and patience. A work of art...

Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship, thank you for sharing your skills

And yes it was worth the wait brilliant job les deux .

Well done, that is a work of art, as well as something useful, you have inspired me to have a go, the only thing I have not got is a planer/thicknesser so I would need the mill to bring everything down to almost final dimensions for me. What a great video, keep them coming :-)

Fantastic job guys love your channel Peace and love from Tampa Florida USA

I like that the dog still gets a nice clear view through the gate as well, great work
