Fantastic! Clear and precise instructions. The ones sold by Rockler and other manufacturers are super expensive as you well know but to do woodworking they are essential. Thank you for taking the time to share this.
The poplar will last a lifetime. If not tightened maniacally it will crush before whatever gets held down. I especially like the built-in flex. Coming at the project from a woodworkers perspective, I would have used the straight layout lines as guides for a sketched, more organic, final shape. I work in laid-up baltic birch or Apple Ply for shop projects. in this case a layer of so-called 12 mil and another of 18 or 19 mil because the materials are hell for stout. The easiest, cheapest, most durable and secure shop-built knobs can be made from the same ply. Drill a recess slightly smaller than the distance from point to point on a plain nut and seat the nuts by tapping them for a start then draw the nut home and square by pulling the nut into the work against a flat surface. The crushed fibers grip the nut against ever backing out. Oh, yeah, nice video. Thank you.
The best part about our hobby Mark is that for every process, there are many different way to achieve the same result. Thanks for tuning in to the show and for taking the time to chime in with you thoughts and kind words. It's very much appreciated.
I need to build a tapering jig, I am going to make a few out of red oak, excellent layout work too! I really appreciate that you use imperial measurements, living in the US that is what I learned,
Here in Canada, we are a metric country. However, I am one of the kids who started off his education with imperial and part way through, the government converted to metric. By that time, working in imperial measurements was firmly established in my brain. I started a trade where the measurements continued to be imperial and so, my unintentional avoidance of metric continued. Now I'm too old and too set in my ways, to convert my shop to metric. So sit back and enjoy all the imperial measurements in my programs that you like. LOL. Thanks for tuning in.
I am glad that you enjoyed the video and the project Francisco. Thank you for tuning in to the show and taking the time to leave the kind words. It is very much appreciated.
Kenny, nice follow up project for the drill press table. Those are another item that it doesn’t hurt to have a few extras laying around. In my case that way I would be sure to find one too....lol.. Hmm, an idea just popped into my head, how about making them out of laminated layers of scrap maple and walnut. That would look neat. Nice project, thanks to your viewer for the idea.
A laminated version would be awesome and it would be strong as well. Almost like making your own plywood. I may have to do that on an upcoming show. Thanks for tuning in sir. I appreciate your support.
Ever thought about making them out of laminated plywood? Glue up the size(s) needed from good quality scrap. As always a great how to video. Thank you Kenny!
That's a great suggestion and while I have never tried it personally, it would most definitely work and I'm sure that it would look fantastic as well. Thanks for the kind words, tuning in and chiming in with your suggestion. It's a great one.
I agree that grain placement is important here John. Thus far, these are still going strong in my shop and I haven't had one break yet. Thanks for tuning in and taking the time to leave your comment. It's very much appreciated.
The "marking ruler" that I use in the shop is called an INCRA T-rule. They are available at most woodworking suppliers or from INCRA directly. They come in metric and imperial measurements and while they may seem pricey at first, they are worst every dollar. Here's a couple of link for you. www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/hand-tools/marking-and-measuring/rules/58877-incra-t-rules incra.com/measuring_marking-trules.html I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
Thank you, an excellent video, and much appreciated, just subscribed and liked, ( Possibly a little too much yakka, you said it yourself at 11:44, " enough talking "- haha )
You are definitely new here Brad. LOL. One of the things I am known for here on the channel is talking WAY too much. Fortunately, most of the talking is describing and explaining the processes that are demonstrated. I try to keep my show accessible to all levels of skill so for the more experienced viewers, they can skip over my explanations and just get the nitty gritty and the newcomers to the hobby can get all the information they need by watching the entire show. Glad to have you as a subscriber Brad. With over 500 episodes of the show, I hope that there will be other episodes that will interest you. The show airs every Tuesday and Friday with Friday being the woodworking edition and Tuesdays can be anything at all that I feel like doing that day. Reviews, welding, rants, etc. Thanks for subscribing to the channel and for tuning in to the show. I appreciate you taking the time out of your day.
I learned a very long time ago that you can't please everyone and I understand that but for some reason, certain people feel the need to put rude comments on the show and I will never understand that. Thanks for tuning in anyway. I hope you were able to take something positive away from the program.

Hi Kenny, nice clamp downs, but the grain of the wood is septal to breaking as you have flat a grain board
