thanks for the great video. so what's your method for those that don't have that expensive jointer machine? thanks

If you like woodworking just look for WoodPrix instructions

You should try WoodPrix instructions. You can try It and get your money back if you don't like it

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for the clear explanation! Just one question, when making a box, and each side is made of several pieces, would you still alternate them, or have all of the pieces’m force inside?

aving this video for its invaluable advice! Thank you so much!!

Thank you Bill for your most excellent video.

Thankyou so much this was the best video I have seen on a band saw . Great explanation and no one has mentioned re wheel adjustment or the grinding of the back of the blade. Really appreciate this as my saw keeps cutting to the right so will check the wheel. An excellent video many thanks

Thanks! I learned that grain direction thing today!

Very informative video and easy to understand. Reminds me of an old shop teacher.

If only we all had a joiner and planer like that 😂. Really hard to build square stuff out of rough cut lumber with minimal tooling. It takes forever and still not perfect

Thank you so much xxx giving you a massive air hug

No disrespect to you personally or your fine tutorial but it defines all logic to me that any country still wants to stick to the imperial system instead of transitioning to metric! 🤣 sheesh 9/32nds plus 14/16ths + 4/8ths.... I understand that it's hard to get used to something new ('m in my 60s from the UK so I know about it first hand) but metric is sooooo much simpler. You use the metric for your currency in America but stopped there 🤪

Thank-you. This a superb step-by-step practical overview of cabinet design, and then ties it all together by showing how the simplified, rational design leads to an organised and successful (less stressful!) glue-up. I have been building similar logic into an Excel worksheet, so that it can calculate the cut-list for each cabinet. Overlaying your methods and formulas on what I've done so far will be helpful. New subscriber! It also served to lay bare a couple of errors I made while completing a glue-up just last night. I used Titebond I rather than Titebond III, thereby critically reducing my working time, and I had cut the dados too tight, leaving no room for glue and causing the loss of critical time fitting the pieces together. Lessons learned!

The 3 c's of instruction. Calm, cool, and collected

My favorite ww vid on YT, well done.

Best tip I’ve ever seen on TH-cam . You can’t beat experience Thank you

He talks like a shop teacher! Love it!

Every high school needs a wood shop! We have lost our way!

Hello, Mr Wilson! I just found your channel when this video dropped. I guess the TH-cam ghosts knew I needed to have another teacher! I do have a question about using a jointer, if you have a minute to answer. I have my Dad’s old (he bought it new somewhere between 1977 and 1980) Craftsman 4” jointer. My question is how much downward pressure should I apply as I run stock through? I seem to consistently end up with a thinner board at one end, by upwards of 1/16th of an inch. I always take the thinnest cut setting at 1/32”, I use parallels and a torpedo level to set my infeed table height to the top height of the blades, I use a depth gauge to set the outfeed table height, I keep all shavings cleared away and I keep my blades clean and sharp. I’ve deduced the issue has to be down to me. Well, I think it’s me, anyway 😂 I feel like I use a steady pressure along with a steady pace but I’m not getting the correct result. Could you share any insight as to the possibility of where I am using the machine incorrectly? Thank you in advance for your help and understanding!

Hi, just wanted to say I love your videos. I really get a lot out of them and learn new things every time I watch them do you do one on one private lessons by any chance lol you really get into a lot of detail and go step-by-step on every thing this is by far one of the if not the most detailed informative as well as entertaining videos that’s not boring but keeps my interest and still able to get a lot out of it. I really appreciate it. I love the analogy about the ribbon and the scissor that totally makes sense anyway thanks, looking forward to checking out a lot more of your content

I think Norm Abram would concur.

Man, I sure wish you were my shop teacher 30 years ago..I'm glad I found your channel. It's obvious you were a very good teacher by this video.

Thanks, patient and complete explanation

Yep....Talks like my old woodshop teacher

Nice job, good information. Starting at 1:38 I look across your shop and I see a jig hanging above the pass door to the right of your bandsaw. What is the jig? Thanks much.

Awesome learning video, best I have ever seen,Thanks to the video I managed to fine tune my band saw. In your video you mentioned blades that are of extra strength, could you tell me where to purchase these blades ?

Thank you, I love the detail in your explanations, and your patience.

My question is how do you decide whether to use a 6” or a 8”?

Dont forget to put the smallest chippers and all shims next to the first blade because some might fall into the threads and screw things up.

The best dado set to buy is the one that every cabinet shop uses. *it's never Freud

How not to mess up your first dado purchase 👍Thanks for the coverage on shim tweaking after sharpening and plywood variances with dado dial in. I now feel better prepared to make that big purchase.

What a great explanation! Thank you so much for these videos. Keep them up.

Great video! Thank you, sir

Wow! Great Information

I don’t understand how it took it off of just one edge.

Mr. Wilson, thank you so much! Just purchased a 15 jet and have read the manual and looked at many band saw videos. After the true basic videos, yours was the best for best for all the detail need to fine tune a bandsaw! A must see for a newbie!!! Thank you BW

Hi very nice video i just bought a real heavy band saw 180cm highth and trying to set this machine up properly. But i have a qwestion bout how round should the upper weel rubber surfes be? The 2 rubber tires are new bought from USA so new rubber tires on the up and down weel. It would be nice to have this explained to me. Is it even possible to have these weels flat? and not rounded. My weels is like this the upper weel rounded with a little edge in the midle of the tires. The guy before me did this because he thought it was rigt. Dont think its corect or am i wrong here? And how in that case shoult these rubber weels be rounded. and how do you fix this. regards

Sir, thank you! That was, without a doubt the best video I have ever watched on explaining bandsaws, and how they work that I have ever personally seen. You have definitely earned a like and I subscribe. Thank you very much!

Excellent bandsaw tech tips. Wish you would address the process of adjusting the lower wheel for coplanar problems. Thanks

I am working on a project where I am cutting through 5 inches of material to form a Gothic window with stain glass panels. I’ve refreshed myself multiple times on tracking and looked at many TH-cam videos. When it comes to the upper wheel, some suggest that the teeth should be close to the crown others say the blade should be in the center IAM confused.

You my friend remind me of Mr Kendall, my favorite woodshop teacher from the 70's!

Thank you for the work you put into this video.

Best tutorial on squaring a board on the internet

Hello, new subscriber here. Loves the Lesson, but could you adjust the volume on your mic? It was very hard hearing you and I had to turn my speakers up all the way haha 😄

I have a grizzly g0555 bandsaw no matter what the blade won’t track in the center. It always moves to the front of wheel I put urathane tires on it didn’t help. I used to have the Lowe’s portercable it did the same thing. I thought it was just a bad saw so I got rid of it and got the grizzly. How do I correct this? Thanks

Excellent video. Thank you

I’ve never seen it explained this way, and it helped me immensely in tuning up an older jointer. Even on one without an adjustable outfeed, it helps you diagnose the knife height. This is the video I’ve been looking for. Thank you very much, sir!

Excellent presentation. Makes me sorry I didn't take shop in high school. Thanks!

I'm so grateful for this video. I wished I could have a personal friendship with such an experienced carpenter like you. You're explanations for this issue I've been experiencing could have saved me so much time I could have not wasted several weeks of fighting this very issue. I had no idea what was the problem I was having until now. I need a joiner. Thanks so much for your help. God Bless.

The best instruction I have ever seen. All based on experience.
