Your limited space situation is very common in North America, Europe and Australia. Some people use a second bedroom or just find space as you have on your balcony. As to your question, I just checked on the Worx Pegasus and it does not lock in the vertical position, when the one side is set down. Reason would be because you need to be able to easily lift up to get it back to horizontal position. It only locks in the table position (horizontal). Now you could use quick clamps to keep it in place, I did try that. That takes up valuable work space but for something that doesn't take up all the room it works great. You could also use straps to lock it into place with the adjacent legs. Hope that helps and keep working on your projects no matter where you can get some space.

I think the one my Dad had was from the hardware store he bought it at, Hechingers. I don't remember seeing it among his tools when I selected what to bring back. I bet he still has it. He kept his small toolbox and tools with him when he moved to the new place so I won't get those until he passes or no longer has any use for them. And those tools that belonged to my grandmother, were bought and used by my grandfather. I've just not considered it that way since he's been gone since the mid-1980s and my grandmother lived until 97 in 2013. Her father lived to 101. My Dad could live a while as well as he had no siblings, with the longevity gene. Thanks for watching.

Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the kind words.

When I first opened the machinist chest and saw it I knew there were going to be some cool tools inside. I agree that wrench is awesome. Thanks for watching.

Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for the kind words. Glad you like it.

If something got wet you should let it dry completely before attempting to use again. There is a reset button on the cord section. If it still doesn't work I don't have any other answers. I've had trouble getting it to work when I didn't have sufficient amperage like when using in a garden with outdoor outlets. Could be that.

Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully this counts as the simple project you were requesting.

@@RichoWoodworking yep , thanks 👍.

According to the manual the only way to activate the soap dispenser is by having the black soap tip on the wand. It will not activate with the other tips. Hope that helps.

@@RichoWoodworking thx

I've never seen anything like that on these types of drills. I also have a catalog for Goodell-Pratt Company tools and don't see any on their drills as well. You pretty much knew to keep your hands out of the gears, I guess. I notice you have a channel, is it possible for you to post a video with the one you're making once completed? I'd like to see what you made for your drill.

Glad you found the video useful. It may have been junky in its day but compared to what is considered junky today, its really nice. Thanks for watching.

@@RichoWoodworking You're welcome and I was glad to subscribe. I hope you get many more. You're right about junk. Before I got the little block plane I bought one of those cheap things with a replaceable blade at a chain hardware store. Ugh! Considered junky in its day, or not, the old ones are head and shoulders better. Keep up the good work!

Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.

I'm not sure the wall could be used since the base is tapered down so that you wouldn't be able to rest the edge of the bench top against the wall except at either end. Doing it from the end would allow stability for planing but may prove limiting for other tasks. Definitely weights could be used. I'm in a different shop now so the logistics are slightly different. Thanks for watching.

@@RichoWoodworking I am not saying to permanently fix the bench to a wall. The wall would be one of several approaches that would be dictated by the work being done. One example is having a small shelf on a wall so that long boards can sit on both the bench and fence. There are many types of jigs that can be used as well. These are old carpentry techniques used over centuries and were most useful at construction sites. The used everything from trees to rocks and would also use posts spiked into the earth. The only limit is our imaginations.

@@Art-is-craft I agree. All very good workarounds. Wouldn't work in my current workspace but someone else may be able to make it work in theirs.

@@RichoWoodworking If you own the property it would not be difficult to put a small shelf on a wall that allows you to put a plank that you are working on. The shelf can be as simple as a board screwed to a wall. I will give example that I use on a small work bench. It is a simple spacer that allows me to take my beach a sit it right up against a wall and normality I cannot plane a board that is resting against the wall so the wooden spacer creates space between the wall and plank that stops me from smashing by plane of the wall. So that means I can easily plane a full length plank/board on a light weight bench.

Glad you got something out of it. Thanks for watching.

I've not experienced this problem before but my guess is that the remote is not accepting the new battery, thus the red light. The red light is an error code rather than a charging indication. I would suggest removing the battery and reinserting it or trying another battery, making sure it is in correctly. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Thanks for the kind words. I really wanted to do something to recreate the Sunsphere. Thanks for watching.

Great story. Yes this was my first as well and I'm surprised its still working. I need to try it on some more projects. Thanks for watching.

Though I've not changed the battery yet, it appears you just rotate the slot on the underside of the remote to the left to unlock it. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for the kind words. If you haven't seen it, the final version of this gear is in Puzzle Box 5 th-cam.com/video/FBdOcMXq49M/w-d-xo.html. Thanks for watching.

Yeah that would be pretty foreign to some people who only use power tools. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for sharing this information. I'll need to go back and rewatch to see what mystery items 1 and 6 are. I've copied your comment to my notes on the items in the chest. Every little bit of information helps. I haven't used the tap and die items as much as I thought but I have been using the files, wrenches and drill items a lot on my projects. And especially the measuring equipment. I'm getting into metal work now that I have my Dad's Sears Vise and a separate table to work on with easy access to my vises and the Gagnon chest. Thanks for watching.

I still have the chest and use the tools inside for my projects. I'm always happy to hear from a tool and die person as you would know MUCH MORE than me. I've parted with some of the old files that were no longer working, giving them to a friend of mine for blacksmithing. I've also added some of the tools from my Dad and other relatives which would naturally fit with this collection.

Glad you enjoyed it. The end of this project is coming near.

I've seen some others do variations of it as well. Comes in handy when I need another writing surface in the shop. Thanks for watching.

Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you find much enjoyment from your router. Its an excellent tool. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it.

I had thought about doing all that but the metal support frame of the table was just too weak to waste any time putting more work into it. If it had the support frame of a B&D Workmate I would have definitely kept it and made the modifications. Thanks for watching.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it.

@@RichoWoodworking what I like to watch a new small projects for a beginner I'll be appreciated ☺️??!

@@athmostafa2462 I'd be happy to do something like that. Do you have an example of what a small project would be? What would be built?

​@@RichoWoodworkingAny small projects with joints to improve our skills would be nice 😊 . For me considering practice on different joints is the key , still I'm new to woodworking though.

@@athmostafa2462 I'll come up with something related to joinery. Look for it this summer.

Glad to hear you got some helpful info from the video. Thanks for watching.

Hopefully this video helped answer some of your questions. I use the Worx Pegasus a lot in addition to my primary wooden workbench. Good luck in your new hobby. Thanks for watching.

I admit I had trouble figuring it out as well. Much of the reason for posting this video. Glad it helped. Thanks for watching.

There is a lower shelf and you can try adding weights to help stabilize it. Or use chocks on the floor under/by the feet to help hold it.

They are a joy to use when I have need of them. Thanks for watching.

@RichoWoodworking I want to find a baby one for chamfers

I thought about using the pull saw but it is much larger in size than the board I was cutting and I wasn't sure I could control it for the best cut. Thanks for watching.

@@RichoWoodworking what ever makes the job done ✅ , enjoy woodworking.

Repurposing the saw sounds like a good idea. Though I probably won't alter the teeth I will probably end up using the saw that came with it for other woodworking uses as well as I probably won't be using the miter box that often for my woodworking. Thanks for watching.

@@RichoWoodworking I bet it will work great for you. On mine, the original teeth had been stamped out, but never sharpened. You might try giving the saw a sharpen, even with the original tooth pattern. It would be a great saw to learn on, even if you've never done it before. It would work 10x better, even with just a mediocre sharpening job😁. I think those saws were made with decent spring steel, though. Mine holds a good edge on the teeth. Anyway, hope your dad's saw serves you long and well. Cheers

Thanks so much. Thank you for watching.

I agree. I had access to LN saws at my last job but I prefer the price of the Veritas for my home use. Thanks for watching.

I'm sure you could accomplish that on this table. Tying the slab down, possibly through the dog holes would secure it while you cut, knowing you'll be cutting the ties as you go. Thanks for watching.

Probably if I worked with brass more often I would consider getting something else to make it easier. I've held off buying a Dremmel for use in the home shop. I had one in my conservation lab that had all the bells and whistles but it was paid for by my work budget. I also had a wheel grinder which makes what I did in the video much easier. Thanks for watching. I hope to finish the project in April or May. There is a lot more to it than just the sphere part.

It probably depends on the clamp. Some are too wide to even fit through the hole. Due to the waffle surface beneath you would need a piece of wood to help hold the clamp in place. It isn't solid underneath.

@@RichoWoodworking Thanks 👍

Completely agree about the light. It would be perfect for working on a bicycle. Another cool use of the workbench. Thanks for watching.

The table saw was definitely something my Dad didn't have. I had to look that one up. Sears was definitely the place to buy tools for many years in our town because the big box hardware stores didn't exist there yet, nor did the Internet. Some tools were also found at Monkey Wards. Thanks for watching.

You did well to build a sturdy wooden bench. Since I'm in a more permanent shop now I may consider building a larger wooden bench to replace my current woodworking bench which I made in 2016.

Thanks for being a loyal viewer. I hope to have more content up once I get a new wireless microphone. Current one is getting worse and worse.

No worries , waiting for more 👍.

This workbench isn't really meant for joinery work, however I use a bench hook for wood projects. You could also use two large F clamps to hold a long board from the sides of the bench. The edges underneath are thin so there would have to be some experimentation. I can do a little video on this if it helps. Thanks for watching.

It came in a big box with the pieces and hardware included. I had to assemble the entire thing. I also had to buy some taps to thread some of the holes for the screw bolts. I had read reviews stating that the holes didn't work right with the bolts they provided. At the time Lowe's didn't sell tap and die and I had to buy the taps at a smaller hardware store. Thanks for watching. Hope this helps.
