Dude! The ending of this video was so dramatic and I loved every second of it, especially when it cut over to CoD when the beat dropped. Also, at first I was wondering how you could play games on it, while on a stand, now I know! Great work as always!
Very well done - thanks! I agree with another commenter, that ‘Microshop Project: (name)’ in the title would be a great draw, especially to those of us who enjoyed that series.
Awesome project as always chap 👍 Top tip for when cutting threaded bar or bolts... pop a nut on them, past the point you'll be cutting, then after you've done the cut, removing the nut rethreads the end where the cut was made 👍👍
When cutting a threaded bolt always screw a nut on first. Then after the cut thread is cleaned up remove the nut, that will ensure the thread is usable.
Cool design, I've just made one cool iPad stand for my workbench in my scroll saw last week it's functional and very convenient when I'm working on my work bench :)
Hey, Tommy, your micro-workbench is beyond freakin' AWESOME! I love it. Sure, there are tradeoffs, but hey for getting so many tools in one little movable space, OMG. One comment: If those are rare-earth magnets... I'd recommend another method to keep the iPad in place. Strong magnets have a negative effects on radios, and you have at least two radios (WiFi + BlueTooth) in that pad. Short term it changes the reception quality by changing the antenna characteristics. If you're near your WiFi access point you won't notice. Long term it can affect things so they are permanently out of spec for where they need to be (like "magnetizing" the metal by either rubbing it with a magnet, or by having it in close proximity to a strong magnet for some time... which is in your project.) Love the idea, the implementation, and the display of the micro-workbench prowess (and your skills as a craftsman!) Ehud
Ehud, thanks for letting me know you're digging the MicroShop! The magnets are neodymium (I'm not sure if that's the same thing as rare earth), and I haven't noticed any ill effects. Everything seems to function as normal. The iPad and it's accessories (like the cases Apple produces) work with magnets, so I assume smaller magnets like these are generally safe around the iPad. I just read an article the other day that says the new iPad (the pro model, I think) has 90 magnets! Either way, if I ever notice anything funky going on, I'll be sure to report back in an update video. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
@@OneMinuteWorkbench Awesome! Yes, neodymium are rare-earth but if you don't see degradation of signal you're GTG! And yes, I LOVE the MicroShop! Brilliant :)
Hi Tommy! Nice project, congrats. Just a small suggestion, have you thought on ways to hide the big T-Nut? Maybe adding a small piece of veneer, or laminating it with a less thickness piece, it could "clean up" the look a bit when the iPad is not attached. Nevertheless, it's a nice idea and good job on the MicroShop. Cheers from Portugal
Really nice project. Watching you cut the metal parts with a hacksaw made me wonder if you had considered adding a small woodworking vise (like the Irwin 6.5") to the MicroShop.
I've thought a little about adding a DIY twin screw like the one on my main workbench, but not a store-bought one. Thanks for the suggestion though - I'll check it out!
Now it’s time to make a floor stand version. I have a commercial floor stand for my iPad and use it constantly in my recliner. I wish mine would swivel out of the way without moving the stand.
Hi Tommy, I forgot to say when I was asking about magnets that I love the micro shop. I've seen a number of these kind of things and this one stands out as well thought through and beautifully made.
I liked how it turned out.... Though I prefer meta stands, this one caught my eye..can you make same from metals like aluminum or likewise..it would be fun to watch that build
Great idea! But, when you drilled the center post holding in the other hand, I was certain you would have a pause explaining you had to finish from a week of recovery. Ouch!
Tommy, love your channel! I just started my own about 8 months ago. Is your channel 5 years old? I was amazed at the amount of subscribers and views you have worked up to.
Hi Tommy, love the micro workshop, I have a suggestion for the tablesaw extension. Why not add two of those knobs that you made in this video, so it locks the extension in place when not in use and acts as vice for small pieces!
Thank you - I'm glad you dig it! Haha...I don't have an engineering degree, however I worked in the field for a long time designing/engineering light fixtures (architecturally integrated stuff) for a manufacturer here in the states. I guess I'm a "self-taught" engineer 🙂
Hi there Tommy. I've been a long time follower of your channel and love what you do, thanks. I was wondering if there are any adverse effects on the iPad display from long term exposure to the strong magnetic fields from rare earth magnets. I'm sure I am being overly cautious. Have you looked into it? Any reassurance would be appreciated.
The iPad has magnets built into it, so I assume that small magnets like these are okay. I haven’t noticed any adverse affects, and I’ve been using it regularly for about 2 months now. The new iPad Pro is reported to have somewhere around 90 magnets built into it, and there are all sorts of magnetic holders that are commercially available for phones and tablets. I’d say it’s pretty safe at this point...at least with smaller magnets like these. I hope this helps! By the way, thanks for letting me know you’ve been following and enjoying the channel - I appreciate it 🙂
To avoid tear out when widening or drilling a new hole you can A) slowly drill in reverse for the first 16th or 8th inch B) start with a worn drill bit or C) use a piece of scrap as a guide, clamped in place
Thanks a million. I’ve already gone through 2 plastic metal tripods for zoom classes and was wondering if there is a better version. The part that adjusts the iPad up and down has stripped the screw hole on both. Any ideas how to fix that?
Thanks for the feedback! I inspected the video at 1:24 to see what you’re referring to, but I’m not sure what you’re seeing. Kickback usually happens when a piece is wedged between the blade and the fence. Since I have the fence pulled away in that shot, there’s little chance of anything having the bite necessary to project. Either way, thanks again for the feedback - safety should always be a discussion!
Really a bulky and heavy thing with no rotate mechanism. The presenter should have warned that magnet proximity can harm components in some tablets and using electric tape to cover bits of cut steel tape was just a bodge. AND it seems that one needs a small workshop as well! There are far better DIY stand ideas on TH-cam.
Whatever happened to the fact that you should NEVER put a Magnet anywhere close to a Computer Hard drive.....Rumor said ALL contents would be deleted ??
Everything’s still working just fine! To put it into perspective, the iPad itself has magnets in it, and the new iPad Pro has something like 90 magnets in it...90! So I think small magnets like these are pretty safe. Thanks for bringing the discussion to the table!
I believe that applied to the “old” spinning hard drives. The disc surface is coated with magnetic material that the reader head arranges to store the data. A strong magnet would rearrange this again, corrupting the disc. Phones and tablets use solid state drives/storage - like a flash/thumb drive with no moving parts, so this isn’t a problem for them - at least not on a small scale; I’m not sure if they’re still susceptible to a strong electromagnet.

Nice to hear from a person who knows the difference between a counter bore qnd a sountersink
🙂
Great iPad stand! It was neat seeing the Micro Shop at work too. Thanks for sharing this.

Great for Holding a music score. Nice work!
Excellent as always Tommy, great idea and execution.
Thanks, David!
Buddy you're next level, you really make it look easy, nice job on this
I'm gonna try this. I draw digital caricatures for events and this may come in handy. Thanks for the inspiration
Good luck with the project!
Not quite the one minute project but love the end nonetheless! Congrats
I’m glad you like it!
love the ending!! great build!
I believe it was Mathias Wendel Who did a comprensive comparison of wood threads on his channel. Quite informative.
Love that guy! I haven't seen he's thread comparison, but I'll have to check it out - thanks!
@@OneMinuteWorkbench My pleasure.
Excellent Project. I will build one for my Wife a Teacher & 1 of her Colleagues
Awesome!
Great build!
Thank you!

Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks! You too!

You should metion in the title that you used the MicroShop since i think its such a cool project that I personally come back to your channel for
Thanks for the suggestion!
One Minute Workbench Anytime and might i add its a superb video again 👍🏼
Tommy you could start a microshop build series and playlist
Already done 😉
@@OneMinuteWorkbench Sorry, I meant to say a series of things built with the microshop
I thinks it pretty cool - though I’d add a small block on the back to keep the iPad vertical
Cheers
Doc
Thanks, and good idea!
I have used Velcro instead of magnets and steel plates. Works great.
Another great video! I need to buy an iPad
Thanks, Chris!

The most amazing and skillful
Thank you!
Great idea! But, when you drilled the center post holding in the other hand, I was certain you would have a pause explaining you had to finish from a week of recovery. Ouch!
Great idea, if you want to protect the tablet better from scratches then glue on some felt to the cradle. :-)
Thanks for the suggestion!
You had me at magnets
😂
Tommy, love your channel! I just started my own about 8 months ago. Is your channel 5 years old? I was amazed at the amount of subscribers and views you have worked up to.
Any tips you can give a newbie?
Nice build with the Micro Shop! I guess you made the stand to play CoD - the rest were only excuses :-)
😉 don’t tell anyone the real reason I built this 😂
VERY NICE.......but ......
It's a Monster in size.
Great project ! Loved it 😊
Thank you!

Thank you!
Very nice 🤗☺thank you for information 🖒
How about a cookbook stand?
It could work...it has a little lip at the front of the bottom shelf. That might be enough to hold the pages back - great suggestion!
So where did you get your ME degree? Data driven, crazy efficient, you gotta be an engineer lol. Nice build!

@1:24 you almost have a kickback occur, you should be highlighting this considering you seem to be advertising this design.

Perfect for watching elephant videos
Indeed 😂
im highly disabled, trying ta find away to build a holder for my tablet on my Scooter if any has an idea
What happened to Tommy? It's been 7 months
Had a rough year that made it tough to get in the shop. That said, things are getting better, and I’ll be back soon 🙂
@@OneMinuteWorkbench hope all goes well
👏👍
