17:00 This is like seeing Batmans cave then seeing Batman use a hand cranked wet stone to sharpen his Batknife. 😀
🤣 Batman was a millionaire do I'm not 🤣🤣
Your approach seems like that of a shop foreman working to eliminate waste and rejects. I like it very much and have subscribed. At the moment you have 243 thumbs up and zero thumbs down which is unheard of. Best wishes on your channel and thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for showing us WHAT you made and WHY you made it! So many videos start off, often without a spoken word, showing us HOW to make something. They think you're going to sit through a whole video of them making something you're not even sure you want to build. Crazy. I have to skip to the end to see if I want to build what they're building. This was a pleasure to watch because I knew in the first minute that I wanted to make my own blast gates just the way you did it. Keep up the good work, and make all your videos this same way, telling us the what & why before telling us the how.
Thank you very much for your kind words I really appreciate it 🙂
Very nice job, i'll be making some of these for my own workshop soon. John McGrath sent me your way and I'm very glad he did.
heard about you through John McGrath. An Irishman in the US. Glad to subscribe and learn more about what you do. Many thanks
I subscribed to your channel on recommendation from John McGrath. And I am watching your video. Keep up the good work.
Thank you
Also directed here by John McGrath. Really well done mate. Down to earth demonstration and love the simple jig for using the router repetitively.
Very informative video (beautiful dialect!), well done. And if you are new on TH-cam, you are making a good content. Subscribed! Many succes for the future.

Also sent from John.
Cheers from New Zealand.
Nice idea, but you really need the help of "Fritz und Franz" to work safely on the table saw
Looks great very detailed may get you to do work for me
👍. Nice tip, good job. John sent me.
Brilliant job Tommy. Did you ever make a video of you setting up your dust extraction system..
Thanks Paul, sadly I didn't video setting up the system but I will try to cover it at some stage as part of the workshop tour series
Great video! Thanks for making, and sharing it with us!
Thank you 🙂
Great video and explanation.
P.S. your table saw is beautiful!
Thank you very much 😊
Great job Tommy and really useful in the shop 👍
Awesome job, My hats off to you for a fantastic video.
Thank you very much 🙂
Great build and very detailed.👌🏻
Cheers im glad you liked it 😊 spread the word 😀
welcome! looking forward to more video's from you!
Quality work ! Welcome to TH-cam. Get the editing as tight as the joinery and you'll be laughing !
Thank you hopefully it wont take me 32 years to get the editing tight lol
@ God no, its easy ! Just remember, the first frame after the action finishes is when you cut. If you keep it moving at a good pace you'll keep your viewers. Good luck and keep it coming
Hi Tommy, just found you a few days ago, you provide some great info here, i really admire your workshop, have you ever considered teaching or instructing?? or running wood work courses or classes there, you really put in the time explaining things, Stay Safe and Good Health..
Hi Kieran and welcome to the channel. The short answer is yes I have considered holding classes or 1on1 tuition but unfortunately the figures just don't add up with insurance etc.
Excellent
Thanks Keith 🙂
Tip Top video.!!!
...must say though, y've got some canny machinery.
Thank you very much 🙂
One thing for sure, I'm keen on a sliding panel saw, used no doubt. Any tips about those?
As the theme seems to be going - John sent me lol.
Well built and looks like they will last a bit in use. Quite the shop full of kit you have there, looking forward to what you share.
One videography type comment - the angle of the camera - when you are looking up into the camera to talk to "us" it looks a little unnatural. Perhaps lower the camera a little bit or just focus your gaze on a spot a couple inches lower. Audio - the shop has a bit of an echo, but I suppose that cannot be helped - otherwise Top Marks for a first video, the editing was grand and the flow very well done.
Looking forward to the next.
Cheers
Thank you for your support and feedback. I'm still getting used to speaking to a camera and trying to get the right angles its kinda trial and error at the moment. The sound definitely does have an echo as its a pretty big workshop I hope when finances allow to upgrade to a wireless microphone which will hopefully address this issue 🙂
@ No worries, it's a big step to go from working to working and filming. You do not display any of the usual "first time video" jitters and such that most people do, you seem more than less comfortable in front of the lens, and that is HUGE. Angles/lighting/audio, that all comes with time.
As far as the looking up goes - I assume that your camera is a good meter + away from you, at least based on the field of view etc, just try looking at the bottom of the camera as opposed tot he center of the lens - of course, you can't drop your gaze too far or it will look like you are looking at someone or something behind the camera.
Do a test shot - pic say 3 points, the 1 you are using now, as you are clearly looking at the same eye-contact target each time, and then 2 more marginally lower, one below the other. - then start recording and run through your intro 3x once at each focal point .. when you review the footage it should be obvious which one looks best, or at least where you should then look for #4.
It's like taking a selfie - I can never quite get them right.
Honestly, that was the only technical sort of issue that struck me, and the echo as you noted, equipment will do a bunch for you, using the mic on the cameras makes it hard to clip out certain effects of the space.
All in good time Sir, all in good time.... don't go driving yourself bonkers over it, focus on your content and you'll do fine as a channel
Nice vid, thanks for sharing.
Could you please tell me what is the make model for your table saw.
Looks like a nice compact machine 👌🏻
Hi, it's a Robland Z320 panel saw I wouldn't call it compact but it is a fantastic machine. I have a quick overview video about it on my channel
@
Great thanks 👍🏻
What do you use to go from the 4" PVC to the 4" tool? Have you figured something out to keep from buying those $10 each store bought fittings for the hoses?
I'm still scratching my head on the issue.. Ha..Ha.. Thanks... Nice Blast gate!
I used 4" pvc ventilation pipe fits perfectly inside the 4" sewer pipe and flexible pipe fits over it perfectly too.
@ Well, lucky you..
The Sewer pipe we have here in the US is called Sewer Drain and Vent. I can't find anything but galvanized air duct that is a 4" OD.. Our Sewer pipe is:
(Sewer Pipe ID:4.05" / OD:4.22")
So, I would be looking for a 4" OD pipe to go "into" the Sewer Pipe, and again, the 4" OD for the Flex Hose to go over.. Strange. I would think there would be the same products in both Countries.. Like 3/4 and 18mm plywood, etc.. Maybe I am missing something, but, all of the charts I could find on Sched 20/40/80 are all based on the ID on the Pipe size.. Something is different if you can slide something inside of the Sewer Pipe and then on the other end slide the Flex Dust hose "Also an ID Product" over that.. Hmm.. Thank you though.. Still scratching my head... Ha..
@@MarkThomas123 that's unfortunate that you can't get 4"OD pipe over there so you are probably right I was lucky. One suggestion I can make is to make a kerf cut in your sewer pipe to allow it to reduce in size to 4" od and then glue the cut back together. It might sound a bit of a hassle but will get you sorted.
@ Yea. Weird. The only OD plastic/PVC pipe that is measured OD is a Central Vacuum hose 2" only OD..
You guys have a JIS K6741 and DIN 8062 Standard that gives you the 4" OD pipe.
I found some 4" Hose Joining adapters that are tapered on both sides and have a thick body between. They look like they will heat and stretch on the one end, enough to fit into the Sewer Pipe.. If not, some wraps of Duct Tape will work. I wish we would all get on the same system... I am slowly adding metric measuring tools to my shop. Nuts/bolts/machine screws, drill bits, taps/dies.. Ha... Wish I would have done this years ago.. Another small fortune in expenses.. But, man is the metric system easy.. Ha.Ha.. Thanks for the video..
BTW.. This is a short blast gate that solves the self cleaning etc..

Will 1/2" MDF work for the top and bottom of blast gate and 1/4" Hard Board for the gate? Will wood glue weaken the MDF while it is curing?
Hi Wayne, yes you could use 1/2" mdf but you will have less support for the pvc pipe so the pipe may need to be glued in place. Any 1/4" stable material can be used for the gate (mdf,hardboard,ply or even plexiglass) I have never had any issues with wood glue affecting mdf. Hope this helps
@ Thank you very much. Off I go to get some 1/2" plywood. Thanks for the quick reply. :)
Good video, would you be able to actually say the dimensions you are cutting the pieces though? You just say you cut them, it would be very helpful to tell the viewer the dimensions, especially the first piece you cut.
what kind of saw, fence and cross cut gide do you have?
Hi, it's a robland z320 I have a video giving an overview of the saw
👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Thank you 😊
Excellent work. Have to make similar soonest possible, Thanks.
Thank you 🙂
