Making Tapered Table Legs by Hendrik Varju
Passion for Wood, 2016.
$89.95 Cdn; 8 hrs, 4 mins on 4 DVDs
We have a winner! (See below)
Making Tapered Table Legs is the 17th (of 18 – so far) DVD set from Hendrik Varju. The earlier DVDs cover such topics as milling, joinery, and finishing and now he shows you how to make elegant tapered legs. All of this combined, allow you to make beautiful tables, desks and other furniture.
This DVD set begins with a review of different tapered leg styles. Then the topics cover wood movement – so you can avoid legs that crack – milling, gluing, and joinery choices. Varju also includes information on cutting legs with a tablesaw using his leg tapering jig, as well as a method for cutting tapers with a bandsaw.
At a little over 8 hours, watching Making Tapered Table Legs is like sitting in Varju’s shop for the day, getting all the information you need to make beautifully tapered legs. As in his other DVDs, you’ll learn the techniques in real time – Varju doesn’t cut out important steps, so it’s like having “Private Woodworking Instruction in a Box” ™.

Coming soon is another Varju DVD – Finger Joints on the Tablesaw. Stay tuned!

A task that's imminent. I could use this dvd right now!
I'm about to start a project with tapered legs for the first time. This would be very helpful!

Just retired,on an extreme tight budget, but hungry to learn !!
I want the DVD, it looks fantastic!
I would love a copy of this dvd I just started learning how to woodwork and this would come in handy thank you
Looks like a good CD!
I can't wait to see what 8 hours on leg tapering looks like. :-)
DVD's are excellent learning tools for me!
I have just started learning how to taper legs. This would be of great benefit.
Great topic, I would love to see it.
Would like to add this DVD to my woodworking library.
This DVDs looks very helpful.
Looks like fun.
8 hours is about how long it took me to make my jig and cut 4 legs for the table I'm working on now. This could definitely help.
Watching those 8 hours might save me time in the end!
It would be good to own
Hendrick's passion for wood working is evident in all his work.
Hendrick's dvds are jam packed with excellent content. I watch many times and refer back to specific points or techniques.
Well that is timely - My next project includes tapered legs and I've never made them before.
Hendrik is an exceptional instructor and his DVD's are packed with detail instructions. Highly recommend them.
with my Mexican mole sauce and toasted sesame seeds. The sauce alone takes me half a day to make! We'll also have grandma's turkey dressing and Hungarian braised red cabbage with thick cut bacon. Homemade pumpkin pie with whipped cream and a Hungarian apple cinnamon strudel.
Mmmmm!!! I would have to stop woodworking until tomorrow! Of course I would watch another of Hendrik's DVDs AFTER eating. :>)
I've got all of Hendrik's DVDs, except for his most recent release, and would love to get it!
Hendrik's instruction is very thorough. The effort he puts into the DVDs is notable.
Hendrik has the most thorough woodworking DVDs on the market today with strong emphasis on safety.
I love the care and thoughtful detail in Hendrik's DVDs.
I have tried various homemade jigs to make tapered legs and am still not 100% satisfied with their designs. Likely Hendrick's taper jig will be the final one I will ever have to make.
What a great promotion, Hendrick is a fantastic profesor. A lot to learn.
The DVDs are concise and complete. A great reference. How 'bout your Mole sauce recipe ?
Henrick's DVDs are extensive in the detail they go into, brilliant resources.
This would be great to have.
This would be a great DVD. My next prospect is a sofa table with walnut tapered legs.
Having taken a number of Hendrik's courses at his shop, it would be great to add this DVD to my tool box
I was extremely happy with the way Hendrick takes you through step by step. Great value
I would love to add another Passion For Wood DVD to my already significant collection.
I have many of Hendrik's DVDs, and there is no question they're very thorough. At times you may feel like there may be a little too much detail, and then suddenly you come upon another little gem of information that comes from his extensive experience. I look forward to spending another lazy Saturday "in his shop", learning another great skill set, with some bonus general shop tips thrown in.
Great video. Love to win it. Thanks
There is nothing better than getting tips from a "pro", even if it is only the little things that you missed, instead of the "how do you tackle this?" kind of stuff. I fall a little in between and have purchased a few of the books and dvd's on this site and they have always been really helpful. Hendrik Varju's dvds would be an excellent addition.
Any DVD from Hendrick will be a welcome part of my library. Congrats in advance to the winner (hopefully, it's me ;^) ).
user-5847156, your free DVD course is going out in the mail today! Shoot me an email after you've watched it to let me know how it helped you make beautiful tapered table legs! Hendrik, Passion for Wood
