      In the late 1970s in New Zealand, any girls that wanted to do "Tech" instead of "Home-ec" simply put a tick on their enrollment form, the same was true for guys wanting to do home economy. We had three girls in Tech in form one and two, and five or six in form three and four. One girl, Maryanne, was streets ahead of the majority of people in our high school engineering class, I hardly even knew what she was attempting to do half the time. The two best in the class though, were orders of magnitude better than anyone else, including her.

    6.6 million views in 9 months says it all. This is the stuff that brings me to TH-cam. Its title alone “I regret that I did not do it earlier! Very useful thing!” so grammatically composed warranted my curiosity of what “it” was that I had to investigate. In my opinion not this setup, procedure or tooling precision is for every TH-camr. As an electrical engineer, much of what I “did” was made physical by those who made things real. Over and over the unspoken message of my experience demonstrated the recognition that it’s they who make the tools that make the things who enjoy the most creative craft. Look at the accuracy and speed with which this tool provides the doweling connection! It’s another production multiplier. A thrill to watch. A well crafted video by a master craftsman. Thanks.

I found it hard to get the drill into the space to screw on the table legs. In time I will get better! I like videos like this that get right to the point. Thank you!!

    Dear Men's Craft:
    My great
    grandmother was a
    woodwright, raised
    in a family of
    Kentucky coffin makers. Her work
    was exquisitely
    displayed in the toy
    chest she made for my mother. Her first
    home was an empty
    church that she, herself
    purchased, framed
    and finished, while
    her husband Joe
    planted and tended
    the orange grove.
    Personally, I built the
    wooden tables and
    bookshelves for my
    first home while I
    worked and attended
    college.
    More women should
    enjoy woodworking.
    It's so rewarding in
    so many ways.

  • @Kevin-jb2pv
    @Kevin-jb2pv 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I'll have to keep a jig like this in mind if I ever need to drill edge holes like that. My only improvement would be a way to easily change the hole size so this can be used with different drill bit sizes to help line up holes for different sized dowels or to just line up straight edge holes for other things. Maybe some grommets with a sleeve that matches the inner diameter of the bearings with different sized washers attached for different hole sizes?
    Or maybe even just take a delrin rod that matches the inner diameter of the bearing, cut it to size, and then just drill centered holes in each bit or rod for each size you'd want? Delrin would probably not hold up too well if you push sideways while drilling, but it's cheap and also slick enough that you should be able to pop it in and out with a tap from a screwdriver without dislodging the bearing, and I would think it would be more likely to give than your drill bit (except for the smallest sizes) and easy enough to replace if you do break it or it wears out.
    Just a thought. I don't really make anything that needs dowels, anything I ever make is pretty utilitarian and I'll just screw together butt joints like that, but even on sloppy garage shelves it can be a pain to get a straight hole drilled in a board with a cordless drill. That's where I think I would really find use with something like this.

    I was waiting for the function of the bearings - something to rotate (for which I doubted the strength of the tool).
    Using bearings just for accurate alignment? Good idea! Looking at the value of something rather than the cost. It may also be the least cost design, considering time.
    I appreciate all the techniques illustrated. The most important one for me is that all the critical dimensions are fitted and not measured.
    I also see a great mind that invents something like this.

    • @reddtekk
      @reddtekk 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      A great means of accomplishing this would be to use a bushing. The outside diameter would fit into the ID of the bearings and the inner diameter would be the reduced diameter needed. The only challenge would be longevity, as heat treating this bushing would be necessary to keep it from being chewed up by the drill bit. They are easily built, however, especially with access to a lathe, and as smaller ID bushings wear they could be used for larger holes by drilling them out.

    Ignore the haters. It's a nice upgrade to an old idea. The fence and the alignment slot for transferring the dowel positions to the second work piece are a noticeable improvement over the ones sold commercially. I like the ball bearings as a drill bit guide. I might have made the main part out of plywood, or possibly run the grain in the other direction just because the slotted "handle" end could easily break off if you knock it off the bench.

    Brilliant design for an excellent tool!! I would add an adapter for different size dowels since they would always be centered with your system.
    Perhaps adding a collection of machined fittings with the same outside dimension as your bearings and various inside dimensions which would accept other drill bits.

    Yep ! I was click bated by the castor too ! However although it seems to be a lot of work to make this somewhat over engineered drill centre , it does serve to brush up the carpentry skills of the DIY woodworker. Traditionally apprentices would make their own jigs and tools to save money whilst it also improved their skills. The China thing had not happened in their day.. Still, a bit of a drag when we expected to see some wonder aid featuring a castor !

My ex had wooden woodworking tools some of which belonged to his father & even some from his Grandfather that had passed down to his Dad & then on to him.

    Well made. Handy tool. Good job. BUT...I made mention in a post just before I watched this video and sometimes its worth the $5 to avoid the time making a tool. I have a lifetime of tools collected and still make a tool every few weeks to 1. Help my hands which aren't doing well after 3 broken necks and 2. Continue my trash-art to keep sane during my forced retirement and last few years on the planet.
    I did actually buy a tool that does this exact thing for $5 plus some change and shipping. I wont say where as I don't endorse companies...only people like you.
    So, for me, buying was a good choice. For those who live making tools as much as making things with them...this is one of the better ones I've seen lately. I noticed your bench appears to have a few other very well done features im sure you made as well. I will be watching more of your videos. You do good work.
