I'm addicted to your videos, Jimmy. And something about the Spike footage makes me a happier person. You've tapped into two internet trends. Watching people make stuff and cats. Thank you for contributing to the movement! Makers like you have inspired me to create more.
I've used other (10" saws) previously and was pretty surprised with the speed and cutting ability of this Dewalt saw.I have bolted mine to a table to minimize movement which I highly recommend.This is a Great saw th-cam.com/users/postUgkxPeGkHOMe05FySypTOvYumxMn-xi39oRe with a light to see your cutting line (not a laser line).I'd recommend this saw fro anyone looking to upgrade from a 10" miter saw.
I want you to know my 3 year old granddaughter loved this video she made me play it over and over again. She laughed so hard about the cat paws. She was so excited it really was fun to watch with her. Great video.
Pushing the blade and letting it spring back to get a small cut is a GREAT tip. Cant believe i didn't think of this before, will definitely come in handy in future. Thanks Jimmy!
When I'm working on projects at my 100 yr/old house my 3 cats are always watching me and walking thru the area. Next to my cats I like a radio best as a work mate! Thanks Jimmy for all the wonderful videos especially with your cat, your the best my man!
OK I’m back. Loved it brother. Definitely nostalgic of all the old tips videos in the basement. Also that 2x2 black frame reminded me of the burnt ones you made for those vintage pics of you, Dave and Taylor! Thanks for the knowledge dude!!
Thank you for those tips. I bought a New 12 inch sliding miter saw and used it for the first time yesterday. I had the blade bind up twice and honestly I was lucky not to get hurt. Your video showed me the reason why it happened and ways to avoid it in the future. Thank you so much for the info!
Thank you Jimmy! And Spike too, of course. Your Tips-N-Tricks are so simple, logical and so good, they make me feel like I should have already known them! Thank you!
Gosh I love learning stuff on this channel and I've been around these tools for about 50 years. And it's not like when you ask somebody the time and they tell you how to build a watch. I don't waste any time learning this stuff. Sending thankful love.
Spike did an awesome job of supervising the whole video. It's about time he was rewarded with a raised, covered, ottoman, fully upholstered with thick foam and covered in a deep pile fur. A stairway up to the resting place so he doesn't have to make those old bones creek and a plug in heat pad would make it the cats whiskers. I am sure Spike would approve - he liked the Greek column cat house you made for him but in old age, cats need things off the floor to stop the cold getting to them.
I wish I would have seen the one about small cuts last year. I cut my part of my thumb off. I have been able to pick up on a lot of yuor tips in just your build videos, but having them in one condensed video. I love ya brother, and respect you. thanks for helping me get better. tell spike I love him!
Aww yeah! Another Jimmys Tips video! I subscribed like 3 years ago after watching your Bandsaw Tips and Tricks video. Since then I've watched pretty much your entire catalog and started a shop of my own. Thanks Jimmy! Cheers!
Always be my favorite series, i improved my skill a lot with tools by these tips video, sometimes i should comeback and watch it again everytime i got trouble and handicap at work, thank you jimmy, bless you and keep up the good work. And by the way, i miss you @davidwaelder, cheeers from bali, indonesia.
Jimmy, great tips I learned some new ones watching this and I’ve been using chop saws since they first replaced radial arm saws. Who says you can’t teach an old dog some new tricks. Thanks brother.
Great tips. Always enjoy these videos from you. Good to see Spike again. We sadly lost our tuxedo cat back in March. Looked exactly like Spike down to his chin patch.
JD, Teddy is sitting on my lap purring to Spike. His cousin Porter is walking across the keyboard to replay certain sections. This is the team that always brought me back. Spike and his buddy Jimmy DirRsta. I learned something here on efficiency and sftey and I've been using these saws for a number of years. Thanks.
Love it man! I just bought the 779 dewalt today and am looking forward to gettin’ after it. Sure will be an upgrade from the 12” Harbor Freight I’ve been using for the last 3 years...
Just watched with my 3 month old kittens and their mom I'm fostering...they weren't scared of the saw noise. Thanks for the tips, I'll be a bit more confident when I get my own miter saw.
Just taking a moment to recognize your video editing style being properly minded of entertainment value. I normally play videos at 1.5x or 2x in order to keep from wasting my time on the useless dead air or slow speaking or slow moving scenes. I appreciate very much that you speed through the parts that don't need much time to appreciate the value, and even though you throw in cat clips, they're very short, and your use of comedic scenes is brief, and doesn't detract from the overall value of the videos. Your videos are some of the only ones that I watch at 1x speed except for music or other video that displays content sensitive to timing for enjoyment. Also, I really appreciate your naming convention, whereby you provide clear indication if the videos are reposts, and some acknowledge specific periods or contract arrangements, letting me know before I click what type of content I might expect. Well done sir! Keep'em coming.
As for the unboxing technique, I like to keep the box and all materials intact in case that junk don't work. Some places are iffy about returns when stuff's all torn up. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you Lowe's and dewalt for sponsoring Jimmy he is a great representative for hard working good people.
Spike is such an awesome helper, I love watching him help you Jimmy.
I'm addicted to your videos, Jimmy. And something about the Spike footage makes me a happier person. You've tapped into two internet trends. Watching people make stuff and cats. Thank you for contributing to the movement! Makers like you have inspired me to create more.
Spike is lookin' good.
Sorry been around cats for years Spike is getting on in years but he has a few good one left

The spring cut is perhaps the simplest thing I have ever seen and don't know why I haven't used it before. Thank you for the tip!

I love how Spike is as much loved as Jimmy! Great video!
Great tips! Something so simple as that "hold down" scrap of wood will save fingers! Who knew you could use tape for zero clearance?!?! Thanks, Jimmy!
It’s great to have the tips videos back. Always learning new tricks ...
I didn’t think I had anything to learn about the miter saw and you proved me wrong. Great tips!!!
That spring cut tip for shaving a sliver off a piece of wood is priceless. Haven't seen that one before. Thanks Jimmy.
So glad to see you do another tips video!
Great to see the return of the tips! These videos with spike are my daughter's favorite!
A new tips video means I'm rewatching the whole series. Pumped!
Another great video. Glad to see Spike back in the shop helping with tips. Thanks for sharing!
Any video with Spike is a good video!
Imagine my surprise seeing you finally posted another tip video! Thank you jimmy. Keep em coming.
Good to see more Spike, he's the real star of the show.
I love spike, hes the best cat on youtube, always a treat to see him in videos
I only watched because I watch all Diresta videos, but I did actually learn something. Awesome as always.
Happy to see Spike back we missed him and his helpful tips Thank you
Jimmy, you're awesome! I love it when you do these "Tips" video's, I always learn something!
So useful and so many feels for that beautiful animal. These are my favourite Jimmy moments!
I missed these tips videos. You always entertain and inform.
So thrilled to see another tips video, and even more happy that it features SPIKE! Love him!
Love the “tips” videos. I go back and watch the older ones occasionally and always seem to catch something that I missed. Very informative.....
These tips videos are so valuable... I'm so happy you're doing some more of them.
Woohoo, Spike's back and looking as good as ever!! Great idea with creating the bottom zero clearance with tape. Definitely using that one!
Your Tips Videos are so valuable! So, so valuable. Thank you, Jimmy, for sharing!
I’m so happy to see spike again. I missed him. Great tips jimmy thanks
Learned a ton with this Jimmy! Not just with the miter saw but that Spike is a damn good helper! Seriously glad to see Spike is doing ok. - Jim
Thanks for bringing back the Tips videos, Jimmy! Always helpful. Hope they'll continue!!
Glad to see the tips videos back with spike. Was having a bad day, this made it better.
Spike did an awesome job of supervising the whole video. It's about time he was rewarded with a raised, covered, ottoman, fully upholstered with thick foam and covered in a deep pile fur. A stairway up to the resting place so he doesn't have to make those old bones creek and a plug in heat pad would make it the cats whiskers. I am sure Spike would approve - he liked the Greek column cat house you made for him but in old age, cats need things off the floor to stop the cold getting to them.
Great advice, great cat!

I have been able to pick up on a lot of yuor tips in just your build videos, but having them in one condensed video.

The return of the tips video!! Thanks Jimmy - it was a long time coming. :)
Spike needs a raise! He really worked hard in this video!!

I rewatch them, too. 1/3 to remind me of the tips, 2/3 for Spike
Really happy to see another tips video, I heard you mention it on the podcast and was hoping to see something like this. Whoo!!!!
Spike and the talker, ..... Jimmy your videos always very useful, I do not know what would be of you without the help of Spike. Greetings from Chile
Jimmy, great tips I learned some new ones watching this and I’ve been using chop saws since they first replaced radial arm saws. Who says you can’t teach an old dog some new tricks. Thanks brother.
The spring cut is an awesome tip. Spike is awesome also!
I love the reach stick idea! Great to see more tips videos.
Great tips Jimmy your tips and videos help me be a smarter and safer woodworker Lowe's is lucky to have you
Nice to see Spike back in the shop. good tips Jimmy. As always.
Got to say best chop saw video I've ever seen great tips well done
Fabulously useful video presented with such a fun & photogenic co-star making it smiles & learning, the best combination. Thank you for sharing!
Love these videos. Great to see them back
Great tips. Always enjoy these videos from you. Good to see Spike again. We sadly lost our tuxedo cat back in March. Looked exactly like Spike down to his chin patch.

I just bought a old Craftsman table saw. This is perfect. Love all you do Jimmy.
Miter Saw
Maestro....admiro tu trabajo ....saludos desde Buenos Aires, ARG
Spike makes the best videos on this channel. Great to see some "Classic Spike" again!
Great tips Jimmy! 👍 Nice seeing Spike back!
Sweet little Spike. I liked the video as soon as I saw those Oreo paws.
Thanks for the tips Jimmy! 👍🏻👊🏻 .... Spike did a great job assisting too!
Right! I wish my cat would clean up around the shop. My cat looks up to Spike the same way I look up to Jimmy.
Love it man! I just bought the 779 dewalt today and am looking forward to gettin’ after it. Sure will be an upgrade from the 12” Harbor Freight I’ve been using for the last 3 years...
I like it when AvE briefly lowers the volume when operating loud, screechy machinery. Not a complaint, just a statement. Ok, maybe a little complaint.
Yes, please normalize the audio!
AvE has a different term for the amount removed using a spring cut. 😆
I had to ride the volume because I was at work
At the end of the video it was nowhere near as bad, those first few cuts were brutal on the ear drums though.
Its fucked up I'll give you that
Always love these series! I always learn so much and so many of mistakes come to light when I watch these videos. LOL
Love it! Always great to see Spike again.
Just watched with my 3 month old kittens and their mom I'm fostering...they weren't scared of the saw noise. Thanks for the tips, I'll be a bit more confident when I get my own miter saw.
Love the spring cut tip!!! I never thought of that. Also your cat is awesome

The glorious return of the tips series, Spike is back and looking as handsome as ever, and I see your troll is back too. Thanks Jimmy. 👍
Spike rules!
I love your tips and tricks videos. Seriously, I've learned a ton from this single vid. Thank you!
How lovely to see Spike still going strong!
Lowes is the BEST!!! love the video!!
Spike handsome as ever! Thanks for the tips Jimmy!
Those are some great tips. Especially the ones about binding at the beginning. I also like the added humor with the kitty pawsof spike!! :-)
thanks for those little tips and combines and a great pleasure watching your videos
Yes! More Jimmy tips! Your tip videos are some of my favorites.
Thanks for sharing Jimmy - I already used a few of those, but learned a lot more!
Surprised and happy to find another tips video. Thanks Jimmy!
I hope you do more video's with spike, he's a good little helper. Good miter saw tips, thanks.
I thought I invented that spring cut trick! Thanks for the tips Jimmy
me too, hehe
Ha ha same, when I heard the bing, I thought "he's got it".
I believe if you did it before ever seeing someone else do it, you DID invent it. :)
Very common amongst trim carpenters and cabinet makers
Always love your videos. I try to repeat what you do as faithfully as possible... one problem.... all my projects now have DIRESTA on them.
Love the tips videos. Happy to see Spike is doing well. Thank you for sharing as always. Always learning something new.
Finally a video that focuses on one topic well done👍
Your video very helpful, tanks. Ваши практические видеоуроки наглядны и очень полезны👍
As for the unboxing technique, I like to keep the box and all materials intact in case that junk don't work. Some places are iffy about returns when stuff's all torn up.
Thanks for the tips!
Learnt loads and had a great laugh, love these videos! DIRESTA RULES!
Let the push vs. pull cut debate start now... great video Spike and Jimmy.
Amazing. Some great tips that I'll be using undoubtedly. So cool to see Spike and a tips vid. Very funny at the beginning particularly :D Much love.
I really enjoy your tips videos, Jimmy. I'm a beginner with lots of tools and the tips really come in handy. Maybe one on a table saw?
Just have seen couple of tips first time ever. Thanks a lot.
