When you're cutting those angles on the middle board, just grab one of those clamps you were using and put it on the opposite end that way when you are using that circular saw it doesn't tip up on you.

Great job. I do like the lap joints being used. I always use these myself. However once lumber breaks down and gives up its strength over time even these joints succumb to rot and break down. You have more open source of area being exposed for water and weather to attack. A metal reinforced frame work would help hold it up once it started deteriorating. And of course all lumber would last much longer in the weather if it was kept treated properly. 20 30 50 years even. But since most will not do the maintenance after ten, the problem occurs and rot takes over even on the most sophisticated and interlocking system designs. Good job.

Always admire the way a good carpenter builds a gate, a fence installer does it diffrent, but both ways get it done. Nice job

Wasn’t aware there was a difference. Didn’t know there were people that just “installed” fences. Maybe it’s different in the US but in UK a joiner that does fences is a carpenter. In fact we don’t call them carpenters we just call them joiners.

I've been a union carpenter for 20+ years now and soda few side jobs here and there I always use half lap joints yeah they are a nice strong connection if they are really wide gate I will add a cable and turnbuckles . But not necessary. Nice to see someone doing them right

If you've got a table saw with multiple blades the half lap joint is super easy. You set it to the height and run the board over it a few times and it's clean.

Great video. Instead of a chisel to clean out the cuts on the half lap joints try a block plane with a sharp knife in it and in between cuts do not lay the plane face down it will dull the blade and when done retract the blade . Alittle quicker than a chisel . Secondly a little glue goes a long way . Tight bond is a very good glue. Excellent job.

Try your router table when cleaning up you half laps joints or you tables make your first crosscut and just nibble away at it I also use my multi tool to clean them up . But a nice sharp chisls is usually the way to go

Hey @justaddwood, I'm building a gate this weekend and am planning on building some gates. Do you think i can replixate this same method with 2x6 instead of 2x4 on a 5ft fence? Just curious if you think it weigh too much and be more likely to sag over time. Thanks!
@justaddwood
5 ай бұрын
Half lap joints and a cross brace from the bottom hinge should hold up a great deal of weight long term. I don't think 2x6" material will cause a sag. Good luck with your project!

I will be doing my side gate and one of the best tips I can give you is using a steel-braided cable to use in conjunction with the brace you installed. I was always told the brace has be to going from the bottom right corner to the top left corner for proper bracing and upholding of the gate.

Thanks. So far so good. They settled maybe a 1/4" a couple/few weeks in but I adjusted the latches and all is well. Other than turning a lighter color they look and function exactly the same as the day they were installed.

With that type of brace, you want the brace to go from the lower hinge to the upper corner of the side that opens, right? So the diagonal brace is in compression?

@@justaddwood I have built a few in my time, and a single diagonal cross member brace is not enough when I am making a 4 to 5 ft wide gate, so I double it up with the grain going toward the boards. I cut it longer than the cross member that I am screwing it to.this helps the door from flexing, twisting. ..
