Gotta share something I really like about you. I've thought it before but want to compliment you on it. Your honesty regarding your vulnerabilities. Most people just shy away from it. But you openly display and share it. It makes you likable. It makes us all more likeable if we do this. Thanks
Your videos inspired me as a young carpenter to always strive to be the best and that when you work hard and you’re passionate about something, you’ll do just fine. Thank you
I have to say, watching your videos and having the channel as a resource has been a life saver! I just finished replacing my baseboards and adding shoe trim, and I had my laptop open to your channel throughout. THANK YOU!!
I'm getting ready to pick up my first miter saw and remembered this tips video and came back and just watched it again. I wish I could "like" the video twice, thank you Richard.
Can’t agree more, my German neighbor who was a finish carpenter alway said a good sharp blade and the right blade for the material is the difference! His saw was as old as him he had it shipped over 45 yrs ago and he made beautiful finished work. He always checked the table saw for level and blade for sharpness, never saw so many blades hanging on the wall.
Been a while since I have been on youtube and since I have been here on your channel. I remember exactly why I subscribed to your channel. What a great human being you are thanks for sharing so much /w us over the years. You can tell a lot about a person through their children and your son is amazing. What blessed man you are!!!
I broke out on my first job with a Chicago Electric 10” single bevel. Took my time and did nice clean work. Now I run the DeWalt 12” double bevel sliding
One thing I learned on my own that I wish I would have known is that a dirty blade can act like a dull blade. I just use windex and a toothbrush and clean it up as needed and it cuts like new!
Okay so today I tried the windex trick to clean the creosote off my 10 " 80 tooth blade. Dude! It worked like a charm! Left it set like 10 15 seconds and it wiped right off with a paper towel! So impressed! Thanks for the tip!
Dude this is awesome... I’m a carpenter who fell into the fitness industry and now I own a health club. I love watching your videos to keep my skills dialed in. Great to see you taking your health seriously...
Growing up my dad was a cabinetmaker all the wood work in the house was perfect. I was a gear head and his trade did not transfer to me. I have learned a lot watching your channel. Some missed angle cuts, but I was able to do a finished edge the other day. Keep up the videos.
Glad you’re back man, missed your videos. I’m not one to comment usually but just wanted to say that you’ve always inspired me to be better and your teaching style / demeanour really really gets the message through. Keep healthy man, take care of self. Thanks for making the videos you do and making the world a better place. Take care, from Canada 😎
Well that's just great. After watching your videos my wife was giving me crap because my carpentry work is mediocre, and now she's telling me to get in shape. Thanks a lot.
And she’s like “can we just go to the room.” That cracked me up! I’m a contractor too. 41 years in biz as a carpenter/contractor. I come home. My wife asks me how my day was. I think to myself......should I tell her. Will she really understand what I’m trying to explain ...the hassles...the push for high quality and how to get there? Etc. etc. etc. usually, I say “ it was OK.”
As a 40 year plus Carpenter I have made various comments on TH-cam to the tool snobs that say you need a thousand dollar saw to do fine work. So it is nice to watch this and hear you say you don't need that just the right set up. Your work is very precise because you know what you are doing. It would be harder but I know you could reproduce good work with lesser tools. The most important tool is yourself. The rest you can work around.
Some people think it’s as simple as measure, cut, nail. We can watch you a thousand times, you make it look simple. Those people do the work you end up fixing. One thing you said that really stuck with me is to practice and learn on your own projects. When you can do good work, then go do work for customers. It’s definitely a skill that you never completely master, sure you’re always learning little tricks to get better and better.
One tip that I rarely hear people say is to use a full-kerf 1/8" blade for the miter saw. Thin-kerf blades easily deflect and produce a wavy cut, even in MDF.
An old myth. Blade technology has evolved into performance levels not seen a decade ago. Go by what the manufacturer's recommend for your application and tool being used. The top level brands spend a lot of money on research and development and their blades can give you the best of all worlds. It is an interesting topic if you care to really delve into blade technology.
@@tonkatoytruck I'm going off my personal experience. A few months ago I was trying to trim in a miter saw for a true 90 using a brand new 10" Diablo 40 tooth and no matter what I did, I would get an uneven cut when I held a machinist square to the cut edge. I decided to put in an old true 1/8" laminate blade I had laying around to see if it might be the blade. I got dead flat cuts with the 1'8" kerf blade. Maybe the Diablo blade was warped? I then did some research and found others who had similar issues with these thin kerf blades cutting precision miters. The theory is that the resonance frequency of the blade during the cut makes the blade wobble and this wobble transfers into the cut. Especially when trying to remove material using a single side of the blade. If you're cutting studs for a garage shelf it makes absolutely no difference.. We are talking about 10 thousands of an inch but this is enough to show in furniture when you are trying to butt the cut end to a flat piece for a true 90.
@@seephor a 40 tooth Diablo is a cheap contractor blade. I have a thin kerf Freud professional blade that cost over $100 and I bet you I can get a perfect cut with it every time. Diablo is the lowest common denominator throw away Freud blade. I can make perfect cuts with my blade in Brazilian cherry which is a lot harder than hickory and almost twice as hard as oak.
I learned this the hard way. Fucked up a lotttt of mitres when I started my business. Buying industrial saw blades is good too. I use the amana A.G.E series and have never looked back at the Home Depot blades.
I learn so much from you I can't stop watching your videos. love how you joke with a straight face lmao. your friends are so lucky to have you as a friend.
Greatest carpenter I ever knew and was a God with tricks. He had two miter saws, a festool and a 10” old school Makita. Dude could do anything on that 10” makita and was very impressive
FINALLY!!!!!! Welcome back! Just wanted to say, I started watching your channel just a little over 3-4 months ago, and I’ve binged all your videos. Today I installed crown on cabinets in a massive kitchen and it came out amazing! Thank you for providing me with all the information and confidence needed to get the job done! Glad to see more videos are on the way :)
Hi Richard. Nice to see ur doing better. Missed ur videos. And a thanks for all your information I got all my catalogs and they sent me a couple nice hats. From Windsor one. Love all there trims etc..
Thanks for the workout tips. I also have "skinny genetics," which have kept me thin my entire 65 years. But when my five year old trousers started feeling too snug I knew I was in need of a good exercise regime. Continue to stay healthy, young man, for your gal and the little one in your family.
Great to see you back. You are spot on with the sharp blade comments. I run a sawmill and sometimes change blades five times in a day. Makes the difference between ok work and over the top precision.
TH-cam messin with you, long time subscriber but haven't received any suggestions from the tube for your channel in quite some time. Love the channel, keep up the great craftmanship. Also been in construction as a licensed master plumber for almost 20 years. I work with many other contractors and appreciate your craftmanship.
Love your videos. Fitness is a long journey, don’t give up on it. It takes a long time to see the results you want, but it’s worth it. You just have to put in the work on a consistent basis. I’m 2 1/2 years in to my journey and I feel amazing. I was always a skinny guy too. Put on 25 lbs of muscle and just feel better all around. You’ll get there, but you got to put the time in.
I couldn't decide if it was because he wants music while working out or if being around power tools has left a ringing in his ear. I have a buddy who has to listen to music around his kids, something about how high their voices are hurts.
Love your attitude and logic. The world would be a better place if every one would adopt the same. I miss the humour and the banter now I'm not in the trade anymore. All the best from England 🇬🇧.
Nice video man. I’m a electrician but I love finish carpentry. I find it so rewarding. I’m in the middle of a wainscot project in my dining room. It’s coming out awesome using your tips from all your videos.
I love the “are you alive” kick from the boy! Glad you are; and back at it. I do the 12oz curls for a workout, and I only run when being chased. Hope you’re feeling better, and ready to pump out some more great content.
Great thought and tips as always. As a DYI guy I learned a lot from your channel but will not hesitate to hire your work if I'm down in your area. Thanks Richard. Your boy is getting much bigger than last year. Boy they grow fast don't they? Love to see him hangs around helping daddy😎
I've been doing mill work for 32 years. I try to explain everything as calm and peaceful as you do. Great job explaining to the Future mill work workers. FYI you feel the same way I did when I was your age. Take some vitamin c and vitamin d you'll be just fine keep up the wonderful work
I am not a master carpentry. I am glad you stated this. I have a friend who get high end tools (festool) , but is does not matter. Like you stated if you know where your blades is cutting and calibrated, you can have harbor freight blade cut just as good as high end tools. It all comes down to your measurement and putting the blade at the right spot and things will fit
The one thing I've learned from your channel is to charge more for my work here in South Texas. That probably sounds dumb to most people but I was charging way less than what my work was worth.
Can you Please make a tutorial video on acute angle crown molding? Everytime I run into one I swear to figure out a systematic way and just haven't. Maybe we can get your help.
I bought a cheap Black & Decker miter saw about 25 years ago. I’ve done everything on it and used/abused it. I check the calibration and always use the best blades I can afford--it’s served me perfectly well. Granted I’m not a pro carpenter, but I’m a homeowner/DIY guy and part time handyman. It’s good enough for my needs. That being said--that DeWalt is sexy.
My observation is that today there are too few craftsman and master level carpenters. I am glad to see the degree of professionalism you exhibit. I learn a lot from every video, but like most professionals you make hard things look easy.
I love watching your videos! I wish I could find a person like you to work for and learn from. Keep up the great work! Just did a shiplap project that my wife wanted done. Your videos gave me the confidence to get it done!
We should be welcoming you back to the channel 😊. In all seriousness, thank you for taking the time to produce & post these videos. Keep up the great work
I have it, OCD that is. I've been doing the same thing, noticing that gap on that door is wider at the top, and such things as that. Anyway, great to see you back on YT. I'm interested in seeing the work you had to go behind, one can learn from ones mistakes, it's even better to learn from others mistakes.
I was in a hurry the other day and had to make some pelmets ,couldn't be bothered setting up bench saw so I just cut the timber on sawstools with a speed square and circular saw turned out perfect .
The man is alive and has some mad skateboard skills! Will be finishing a room in the basement soon and this video couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks for the videos and tips. Much appreciated.
Thoroughly enjoy your videos! Starting a crown molding project in my own home and your videos have helped immensely. Thanks for sharing all your experience and knowledge.
The masking tapes a good idea. Something I heard someone say recently was to look through the blade guard, down the blade itself. It really does help when making very precise cuts.
Man good food and exercise- especially for contractors are so easy to pass by. And you have mad skills! 👍✌️ Keep it up and thanks for being there for all of us.
Dude, I really think skaters make the best trim carpenter's. We have the drive and determination to get our skill sets down and we routinely put ourselves through tough conditions to get tricks. I've applied that all to my work in my thirties and it's paying off!!! And you have good style, I think you should start a skate channel like Vancouver Carpenter 💪
What is your advice on pre-painting speed baseboards 5 1/4”. And stacking on top?. As a painter I know that even though they are dry they will tack to each other as will cabinet doors. For years I have used wax paper between pre-painted trim and cabinet doors.
I am moving into a new house and my wife has a long list of projects, starting with replacing all the baseboards and casing out the windows. This video was very helpful if for nothing else than letting me know I need a new blade on my saw.
This is great! I'm suggesting you do a up series of some kind with this! I want to put board a batten up in my living room so if it's along those lines.....🤣🤣
THANKS DOC .... “OCD” could not stop laughing, an in trouble times two ( I wish just by two). Yep got to take care of the health, then everything else. Great to see the dog got ya jumping through hoops. Once again your info 👍🏻 till next time
Jumping on a trampoline is no joke exercise. My wife and I visited some family, and we were hopping on the trampoline with their kids, and within 5 minutes we were sweating like mad and felt the burn in our legs. Better exercise than the runs I do, and way more fun!

Can you do a video calibrating your miter saw? Would love to see that.
Jonathan Katz-Moses has a good video that is short and to the point. I used it to calibrate mine and it’s so much better.
The one thing I've learned from your channel is to charge more for my work here in South Texas. That probably sounds dumb to most people but I was charging way less than what my work was worth.
Can you Please make a tutorial video on acute angle crown molding? Everytime I run into one I swear to figure out a systematic way and just haven't. Maybe we can get your help.

I bought a cheap Black & Decker miter saw about 25 years ago. I’ve done everything on it and used/abused it. I check the calibration and always use the best blades I can afford--it’s served me perfectly well. Granted I’m not a pro carpenter, but I’m a homeowner/DIY guy and part time handyman. It’s good enough for my needs.
That being said--that DeWalt is sexy.
Thank God! Wasn’t seeing your channel up anymore but your back!
Long time no see, glad you're back
Thanks for AI you do to help those that do your type of work, or want to, you're very helpful and modest.
Great to see you back,any advice on a blade for cutting laminate flooring,I know that stuff can really ruin a good blade.
I agree with every one of your tips. The most important tip I was ever taught was to use a very sharp pencil! It actually makes a big difference
Measure once, mark it with chalk and cut with a hatchet
My observation is that today there are too few craftsman and master level carpenters. I am glad to see the degree of professionalism you exhibit. I learn a lot from every video, but like most professionals you make hard things look easy.
So glad to see you, again! Missed your videos and quality work ethics. Take care, thanks for another entertaining session.
welcome back! Great to see Finish carpentry updates continuing! ✌
I love watching your videos! I wish I could find a person like you to work for and learn from. Keep up the great work! Just did a shiplap project that my wife wanted done. Your videos gave me the confidence to get it done!

Glad to see you! Yes, we have missed you and your great vids! I do really enjoy your videos and great information. Take care.
I just appreciate your time to upload these videos. Thank you from North Carolina!
have you ever done a saw calibration video? Would love to see you go through that process.

Thanks for the knowledge drop man. Great tips, and your effort is much appreciated. Also had to comment to say the skating tricks were straight 🔥
Thanks for taking the time to make theses videos it truly does help
Man - glossy finishes really highlight any imperfections.
Yes I have not been notified of your new videos! Glad your back.
My back?
Welcome back. Really appreciate all the wisdom.

Your videos have not been coming through?? Glad to see you back !!
so true about being a carpenter i always look at building construction , 40 + years in the trade and still love it
What a great day to see you have another vid up!!!
The masking tapes a good idea.
Something I heard someone say recently was to look through the blade guard, down the blade itself. It really does help when making very precise cuts.
Man good food and exercise- especially for contractors are so easy to pass by. And you have mad skills! 👍✌️ Keep it up and thanks for being there for all of us.
I just bought one of those DeWalts. May not have needed it but I sure like it.
Do you mind doing a video on to do a calibration of the miter saw? Good to see you again brother! Blessings
Dude, I really think skaters make the best trim carpenter's. We have the drive and determination to get our skill sets down and we routinely put ourselves through tough conditions to get tricks.

I want to put board a batten up in my living room so if it's along those lines.....🤣🤣

Jumping on a trampoline is no joke exercise. My wife and I visited some family, and we were hopping on the trampoline with their kids, and within 5 minutes we were sweating like mad and felt the burn in our legs. Better exercise than the runs I do, and way more fun!

What kind of cut out system you’re using for your miter saw?I like it.
Great video young man. You are pleasant to listen to and watch
I appreciate the videos as a novice looking to perfect this skill, I am looking to learn how to calibrate my miter saw.
