I just used my TS75 to edge joint some 2x6 boards for glue up. The seams are perfect on both sides. On a scrap piece I dialed it in to exactly 90. The best advice I ever got for using my track saw is to do a backwards scoring cut. Regardless of what I'm cutting all 4 edges of the cut are pristine, even cross cutting oak plywood.
Loving the more relaxed style Sedge. Glad I was in at the start of your own channel. Thank you for passing on some great info. Good luck with the channel from London, England. Allan
loving the video, I have watched most of your build / cut videos several times each now... As your videos are very informative Sedge, I have managed to convince to wife to invest more in Festool... Enjoying the products and just purchased the STM 1800 and DF500 connector set... Cheers From Sydney Australia
Great video Sedge & Team. One suggestion, buy some more repeatable stops, they help with making the consistent cuts, cause once you set them up, you can always go back and repeat it for that project.
Oh man, I wish I had had you as a mentor when I started woodworking lo these many years ago. Having spent what seems as 95% of my pension on various Festools there is always something new you are teaching me about them. One question if I may. Why do you not use the green outrigger splinter guard? Cheers, Peter
Thanks for the video! I just purchased my 1st Festool MFT 3 ,and your video really helped! Really enjoy your channel! A little off woodworking topic, but my guess is that you are a huge "3 stooges" fan!
Hi, do you think the mft table can replace the table saw for panel cutting? here in Italy the tablesaws for hobbyists are very poor in cutting quality. thanks for your time
Thanks for going through the basics!!! I’ve enjoyed watching the channel and look forward to more! Which table saw is that you have? CMS with insert? CS70? TKS 80? Thanks
If I wanted one saw, I can't afford a miter saw and a track saw, should I get a HK 55 or a TS 55? Does the TS have better dust control than the hk, and will the TS do crosscuts as well? I just want to make the right investment. Thanks.
Just found your channel a few days ago. Some great information you guys put out. Looking forward to more content. At the 12:15 mark what brand of tape measure are you using? I am looking for a good tape measure that has both metric and imperial to replace one that broke and haven’t one that is decent and I like the way the markings are on that blade. Thanks for your time. Ron
Ron .... Thanks for the follow...The tape I am using is the Fast Cap Metric / Imperial tape !!!! It usually comes in the Yellow color !! This is the best tape I have found ...easy to read !!!!!!!!!
@@sedgetool ahhh that would be amazing! very cool! Sedge I notice you wore a shaper origin shirt on one of your newest videos, do you have one? How do you like it ?
I’m assuming these cabinets are going to end up with shelves yet I noticed the 1000mm measurement is not an increment of 32. If you use the LR32 why are these not balanced panels? In other words, why not go slightly under or over to hit that 32 increment. Thanks?
Once again sir, hear from South Africa,great to be able to constantly learn the best professional way of using festool and Awsome woodwork.
Thank you very much!
Sedge, you and Big D make a helluva team! Really looking forward to your future videos.
Thanks ...we sure do enjoy woodworking !!!!
You are AWESOME! Thanks for sharing your tips and experience!
Happy to help!
I love the way you're discussing those tips
Thanks
Vibes like my favorite wood shop teacher from back in the day.
Good teaching style and explanations Mr Sedge!
Wow, thanks!

Interesting
Great video guys. It is always good to start with the basics and build a solid foundation!
Absolutely!
This guy is frickin awesome!!!!!!
Thanks PaintPro

Awesome !! Thanks !!!!
Absolutely love that all festool (nearly, MFT kapex) are all the same height. So so awesome to have that across multiple tables in my shop
Couldn't agree more!

Unvaluable tips here, thanks !
Thanks ... we sure try !!!
Keep going man you are the best
Thanks ...Will Do !!! Thanks for following !!!!

Thanks for the tip Warren....
Nice one mate!
Everyone works differently, but I also like to mark the off cut piece that was square, for future reference.
Good tip!
You can use a 1-2-3 block against the end of your stock and butt the folding rule against it. Removes a variable
For sure !!!
How would you get repeatability with longer boards? Like 1200mm? I have learned so much from your channel!
I set up and connect an extra MFT/3 Table or use the work table extension ...then set up an extra stop
Oh man, I wish I had had you as a mentor when I started woodworking lo these many years ago. Having spent what seems as 95% of my pension on various Festools there is always something new you are teaching me about them.
One question if I may. Why do you not use the green outrigger splinter guard?
Cheers, Peter
I use the the outside splinter guard only when I need splinter free cuts ... sometimes I just do not need it ....
What is the name and source of that support/work table that rolls around? It is awesome. Found it - FESTOOL STM 1800 TABLE.

Where do you get the festool hinge for mft?
I made my own mft but I’d love to add that functionality to it
Cool

Thanks Paul...... and YES I grew up with the stooges...... My wife tells everyone she married Curley from the 3 Stooges..NYUK NYUK !!!!!!!!!!!
@@sedgetool Yes, I also grew up with the 3 stooges, I've been watching them since the mid 60's!

Yes, absolutely

Thanks .... CS70
Thanks gents another great video. Where do you get the pencils they looks pretty handy.
Pica marker ...best pencil on market
Is that a Goldendoodle Sedge making an appearance??
yes it is...good eyes. Her name is Guinness
@@sedgetool Great dogs I have one called Hector great for clearing away my offcuts!!Love you're vids Sedge keep up the good work
If I wanted one saw, I can't afford a miter saw and a track saw, should I get a HK 55 or a TS 55? Does the TS have better dust control than the hk, and will the TS do crosscuts as well? I just want to make the right investment. Thanks.
I would go with the TS55

Hey Sedge, what happens if you release the tabs in the rail that hold the rail lifting mechanism?
What’s the best way to recalibrate those pieces ?
I use the holes for alignment with a couple of dogs and re square .... I think this should be another video ...
@@sedgetool ahhh that would be amazing! very cool!
Sedge I notice you wore a shaper origin shirt on one of your newest videos, do you have one? How do you like it ?

I usually do
when i setup my table mft/3 to square why is the reason 2 or 1 mm short one size?
huh ???
What’s the tape measure. I cannot find it ?
Fastcap metric / standard
And the best way to "learn" something is to try to teach it to someone else!
For Sure !!!!!
💯💚💚👍👍
Thanks Ian ......
Fyi extrusion is stretched straight!
cool
er yeah, or you could just square your fence off a pair of dogs rather than a cheap square and bits of loo paper
too much possibility of wear in the dog holes....
