There are diy jigs that are variations of this design. What’s your take on them?
@@txm11-t4u Most of the diy jigs work well. Just takes an hour or so to build them.
Next time, if you would, please stand a little further to the left. I created the "What Happens on the Road" design behind you. lol. Great video! I didn't even see it hanging there until nearly the end.
Is that insulation floating around while you work? Or spirits? 😅
Great review, I have just purchased a set up to use on my dewalt table saw. I agree with every one of your comments. I will be trying to find alternative clamps to hold the fence, the Dewalt fence made it difficult for the camps to drop down as far as I would have like and were longer than it needed in my case. The pads on the bottom of the fence dragged and I ended up pack t up when fixing it to Dewalt fence. I did find that the feather boards didn't actually need that much pressure on the board to work properly. The push stick was a little long for my case and I have ordered the shorter version. I believe that I'm only likely to set it up for use on projects that involve cutting a lot of the same cut. Time will tell. It's a small thing but it did look like the board you were cutting in your demonstration had a fair bow, it's possible that it may contributed to the drag when pushing the board through. It was a fair hit to the bank account so I hope it will be a useful addition to the workshop. Happy dust making to all.

Honestly, as an ex floor man I would only use this in my house if I bought a few gallons of Satin Poly and put it on with a sheepskin mop, like I used to do with real hardwood floors. No one is going to keep water out of those cracks forever.
Squirrel in vent, or something blocking the exhaust? Because there is something else wrong. I would check it or add a solar powered vent fan? Lower the unit on the wall. Check the air/wind outside it could have a strange inlet/up flow?
Which brand?
@delynnaddams8774 I do not remember, I bought it at Tractor supply. It has been gone for awhile now.
Way to high on the wall The air is not set right
U have something wrong if it smells
Good video thank you for sharing!
Good videos bud, you using a mic?
You can produce wood molding in this machine?
@@edsartsstudio3064 No, it does not cut profiles
No I had the Craftsman 12 inch planer/molder That sold in the early 2000 for 799.99 The blade set was over 200 dollars There was three sets A standard set which was the largest 17 blades You could mix and match 3 in a crown molding set And picture frame set of 7 It was awesome Made by DeWalt under Craftsman specs, and I had every Craftsman shaper blade for it And many other shaper blades fit it and I even had blanks to Make my own designs But times we're tough the first Obama years and I had to sell it. Nowadays I have a Bouer 12 in planer and I'm happy with it. It's not as robust as the DeWalt,but this gets the job done and it was Cheep with the build quality of being good and the Blades are cheep and I'm doing pine or pressure treated so they lasted quite a while. If I was doing a lot of hard woods?, I'd get a DeWalt Note to self Look for craftsman planer/ molder for sale on the net.
@racerxforever2765 thanks for the info, I had no idea.
And you’ve been breathing that.
@@troic3051 as little as possible and not anymore. Got rid of that thing
They do make a food grade TSP.
Never ever seen anyone lay blocks without a string line to keep everything straight.
@@michaellynskey7124 I used guides.
I live Local are you for hire?
@SVU777 I am not, work load is overwhelming now. Sorry, I currently can't even recommend someone.
You did a remarkable job of explaining yourself I very much appreciated your video
@@Slitthroat1776 thank you!
To avoid furnance start-up surges on your generator beyond the initial start, would leaving the blower on avoid the surging during on-off cycling (high efficiency furnance)
@ohiowalkinshowersllc7723 It wouldn't hurt, however I do believe the surge created by the fan motors today is not very much. The High efficiency furnace I just had installed only called for a #14 wire. It is not pulling very many amps.
Nice work😊
One full turn is 1/16”. Half a turn is 1/32”. Therefore one quarter turn is half again or 1/64”.
Appreciate the detailed explanations. I'm just dealing with rotted sill plate at my place and this gave me proper ideas of sealing after the repairs done thank you 👍
Welllll dang man! THANKS for this, I've been wracking my brain tryna accomplish this, and was sweating paying €45+ for something like the Craftsman CMHT2080. I mean, I'd love to buy their stuff but everything adds up quickly. So I'm glad to use your affiliate link to put a couple spondoolicks in yer pocket👍 Much appreciated!
?? Why would your finger be 2mm close to blade?? The thickness of the glove?
I have an 18,000 BTU "Mr Heater" ventless RADIANT propane powered heater. (Radiant as opposed to an open blue flame type). I use it to heat a 400 sq ft bedroom with 10 ft ceilings at the beach in Baja Mexico. It runs full time in Winter (with thermostat set on low). It has NEVER caused ANY SOOT...ever and there has NEVER been any odor of any kind from! It has an internal oxygen depletion sensor and also a carbon monoxide sensor. I have never had an issue of any kind with it! I wish I could find one with an electronic starter to get rid of the pilot light but only to save on propane as it works great! The heater shown in the video must be a real piece of junk to cause those issue....especially the soot!
Co2 is colorless and ODORLESS and heavier than air
I have one of these jigs and the battle with the fence every cut to make sure you have the right pressure/right size... is real. So much so I have given up using it and going with a more gripper type jig.
I have the same issue but I noticed the bump outs not necessarily the dip ins. I’m it handy but this made it look less daunting
The TH-cam channel Project Farm tested a bunch of exterior screws (not including the Do it brand), and the Grip-Rite Prime Guard Plus screws scored much higher than the Deckmate brand in every category. His testing is quite thorough and well done. It is nice to see more information about exterior screws and learn more about their backgrounds.

Thanks you for this. I was having issues with the outer blades turning when tightening. Instead of using my fingers to prevent this, I instead used a small clamp with just enough pressure to prevent turning. Works well and I feel my setup is safer now.
Super helpful, thanks!✌️
Impressively helpful. Thank you very much indeed.
sorry my friend , but sabre saws and reciprocating saws are all obsolete tools now. They are demolition tools, but lets be honest. When you have to cut through a steel rod or thick wires, you will always use a big angle grinder. When it comes to big logs , you will use a chainsaw to do the work in a matter of seconds instead of minutes that a reciprocating saw will need. These tools are and will only be used for small twigs and tree branches , nothing more. And even for that small tasks , there are now handheld mini chainsaws that will do the work faster than a sabre saw. Really, i don't know for how long they are going to make sabre saws, they are totally irrelevant nowdays that is why they are trying to breathe new life into them with the ridiculus new attachments in a last effort to make them useful somehow.
A+ Great information.

I have a 5yr old AO Smith. I've seen other tutorials which say to remove the wrap around air filter to wash it in the sink. Once removed, you can use a plastic brush to brush under the water heater to clear the possibly clogged filter tray near the flame guard. Then, you reapply the air filter back. But I'm not so sure my air filter can be removed. Its hard to see with the drip pan along the edge.
keep in mind that a vent-less heater also consumes oxygen, and when the oxygen is depleted, combustion is not complete. This generates more Carbon Monoxide (CO) and soot.
Thanks. I just bought a preowned 734. Your video was helpful
Your idea solved one of my problems, instead of spending a ton of money on a 12’ straight edge I’m going to clamp my two longest levels together to determine where the dips and peaks are. Thanks!
I have no idea if pawls will stop a board from shooting back, but kickback "ejection" usually happens on the backside of the blade. The wood moves onto the backside of the blade, gets pinched by the fence and the back of the blade and shoots back. So not sure about "front side" of blade theory.
Good video all the best from Scotland.
Thanks! You were the first no nonsense person I've watched and I have a similar issue. Tore up a floor, found bad joists, and I know how to sister, but not on main joists. Only where I'm needing to put new subfloor so it sticks. Thank you! I hope your method works for me. It makes perfect sense!
@eileentaylor3106 You are welcome, glad I could help.
Can it be used to cut vinyl please
What did you put for 3/8" , are your chippers 1/16" ? If so what was the spacer for cuz the outside blades are 1/8 so 2 of those plus 2- of the 1/16 should do it , not sure why you put the spacer in .
I'm making concrete window sills (36 inches wide, 4 inches in depth, and 4 inches tall tapering to 3 inches for the slope) to replace brick rowlock sills. I the mold out of plywood and made some test pieces with rapidset mortar mixes to refine the design. Would rapidset mortar mix be a good choice for the final product?
@Chris__UU it would be one I would consider. First check to make sure it can be poured at 4 inches. If not rapid set cement all would be another fine choice. All cement products have a minimum and maximum thickness for strength.
@@detroitdiy Tech docs say 2 - 6 inches. Thank you
The Epoxy table guys will put their mix in a chamber and pull a vacuum to take out air bubbles. Could this be done with cement to reduce air bubbles?
@KirkDickinson I don't see why that wouldn't work. I don't know the working time of epoxy. With Rapid set work time is short. Other mixes set way slower.
The bleach will do the same without the TSP. When washing the house, be sure to rinse windows good… don’t let TSP sit on the glass for too long or you will have a residue that you can’t get out unless you buff with a ceramic stove top cleaner. Can be a real nightmare. I just avoid tap all together.
I had the same problem with the flow aid causing the cement not to mix, thick at the bottom and watery on top. Can’t wait to try it this way. Thanks for the tip!
