Tools you will ACTUALLY use
In this video I showcase the essential tools I used to create a special music box for my son. In this twist on a 'tool recommendation' video, I'll walk you through each tool's role in bringing this project to life. Whether you're a seasoned DIY enthusiast or just starting out, these practical tools are a must-have for your toolkit. Share your thoughts on these tools and let me know what projects you'd like to see in the future. Your feedback is truly invaluable as I continue to try and get better at this whole TH-cam thing. Thank you for watching!

For anyone reading this far, you are awesome. You're not just a viewer; you're a true supporter of the channel, and I can't thank you enough. As 2023 comes to a close, I reflect on my goal of creating 23 videos in 2023 - a goal I thought was achievable.. MAN! Did the year say "Hold my beer." I ended up publishing just 5 videos. Far from obtaining my goal. BUT! My channel subscriber count DOUBLED despite that fact! I only have people like YOU to thank for that. I have received an undeserving amount of support from this community. A special thanks to this list of people in particular:
-Mark @startmaking1
-Lee @BustedKnuckleWoodworks
-Pierre @TheSwedishMaker
-Steve @SteveBellCreates
-Jon @Lincolnstww
-Zac @ZacBuilds
-Eric @SpencleyDesignCo
-Drew @wittworks
and SO many others. Another HUGE thank you to my wife. She continues to support this wild dream of becoming a "TH-camr". The amount of sacrifice that goes into creating these videos can be a tough bit to handle at times. I take away time from her. I take away time from my son. I take away time from my friends but in the end it's worth it because I am chasing a dream. A dream that all of your support continues to make closer and closer to coming true. This coming year I hope to give back all that has been given. Behind the scenes I have 4 videos/projects that are in various states of production with 20+ still waiting to be started.
All this is to say...Thank you. I am looking forward to this next year in a BIG way.

    If you are comparing just the extractor vs vac, then the sander itself should be the same across tests. Either use the Festool sander or the Rigid one for both tests. Show me the result of the Rigid Vac + Festool Sander.

    I've had my Rigid Shop Vac since dinosaurs roamed the earth, and it just keeps on working. I did make the cheap double bucket cyclone filter and added a 12 ft hose to reach different areas of the shop.. Works like a charm. The buckets capture 80%+ of the dust, and I only have to clean the Shop Vac filter occasionally. Yup, it's still loud.

      Thats what I believe. My 1st printer was an Ender 3. It can produce an awesome print, it may take awhile for it to print AND you will spend A LOT of time dialing it in and maintaining it but it is fairly inexpensive. OR you can spend 600-700 USD and get a Bambu Lab P1S that you just hit "print" and 98% of the time it spits out a perfect print. I think you land somewhere in between with the anycubic Kobra 2 printers. I have 2 and love em.

    @inlandwoodandresin 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great project Jason. I was recently asked to make one, so I was hoping to see more of the build. I would contend that buying an inferior drill bit set is a necessity, insofar as it will let you know what size bits you frequently use, then pay the premium for indovidual bits. I have dozens of 1/8" bits for pilot holes, and maybe 5-6 slightly undersized bits (15/64, 23/32, 7/16, etc) as my boring bits. Nonstandard sizes allow for tighting fits, and then I dont have a significant imvestment in items i never use. I will say this, you can never have enough FastCaps. Pretty sure i have 4 lefty/righty, a Yellow metric only, and one of those Black flimsy tapes. I think my FastCap collection is becoming more of an addiction

    • @JasonGrissom

      Thanks Jered! Yeah my plan was to show a lot of the build (I filmed a lot more) but in the edit I couldn't get the pacing right. I think i'll definitely try this style of a video again and have an idea of how to incorporate the "tool talk" and build a lot better. As far as your suggestion about drill bits thats actually a great idea. You obviously don't want to be buying a whole kit everytime your 1/8" bit burns out. I guess really what i'd steer people away from is a set of "general purpose" drill bits. At least in terms of working with wood.

    I've used and like the FastCap tape measures a lot. I stumbled across the Komelon self-locking tape and that is now my first choice. Not because of any of the fancy features of the FastCap, but simply because it comes out locked. You only push the button to retract. Such a simple difference, but MUCH handier to use. No pressing to lock, then unlock to pull out more, then lock again. Who uses a tape measure and doesn't want it to stay put?

    A bit of an essay about those pencils - if you dont work in an enviroment where often climb ladders or crawl somewhere, the expensive ones have no benefit. Cheaper pencil might have small and weak pocket clips and they will break if you catch on something, more robust clips like the one on Pica hold fine. Most annoying thing about pica is having to pull out the sheath to sharpen it, most other brand have sharpeners either on the sheath near the clip (meaning you can easily sharpen with one hand)or it screws into the top of the pencil. For my money, the best of the best is Hultafors, but for a shop enviroment a cheapo will do just fine (especially for people like me who use multiple of them for different colors).

      I 100% agree with you there. These type of mechanical pencils (Pica/Hultafors, etc.) are very good for construction sites imo. but in a shop a "real" mechanical pencil is way better. If you got a 0.9mm pencil and good leads you never have to sharpen them and better leads won't break even if you use them on rougher stuff. Pica has now a "Fine Dry" which uses a 0.9mm lead but the tabs on the sheath always broke on mine which makes them useless.

      Hmm...looks like i'm going to have to look into this. At least for marking cut lines. I still really like the shading benefits and marking for sanding with the pica dry. But yeah. Maybe I should look into these options for general marking. 🤷‍♂️

    I’m still laughing at “the point is”, right after you sharpened it. I see what you did there..and love you for it.

      🤣. I love that you picked up on that. I thought 1000% it was one of those things I did that NOO ONE was going to notice. Thank you so much Brian. 🙏 Another comment that made it all worth it.

      Good point Dave! I suppose you would just feed the pipe down as far as you could, flip it back up and feed it the rest of the way through? Thanks! Hopefully this helps others. I think another thing I could've done was put clamps under the top to just work as a bit of a shelf/helping hand while I worked it in.

    Great timing, the Kobra lineup was on sale for Cyber Monday and I was able to grab some gear (used the affiliate link). Now hoping it's as good as you say it is (since I was leaning towards a Bambu). Thanks Jason!

    Can get a WEN air purifier, RZ Mask, the Ridgid combo, and set up a couple box fans with filters for still not even half of the Festool setup. Fun video, but it's just not a realistic comparison. Like a Chevy Aveo vs. a Ferrari. You'd hope the Ferrari is better. I think the most interesting fact I gleaned from all this is that for the price the festool should've done even better imo.

    • @JasonGrissom
      @JasonGrissom 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Fair enough. The Festool is great if you have more money than you know what to do with. 🤣 But seriously. The ridgid with a hepa bag is pretty good. In the Festool defense. There is a lot of things that I didnt really want to dive into either because I didnt have proper eqiupment to scientifically prove or I just didnt want to make an hour long video. It is worth noting with the festool, specifically in this example, you have a larger capacity, you have an anit static anti kink hose and also an outlet to automatically trigger the vacuum with a corded tool. But again. Completely agree with your Ferrari vs Aveo comparison. 🤣
