    Shop Safety:
    In some of my videos I will share my experiences regarding shop safety. This is based on my knowledge and understanding, however ultimately you are responsible for your own
    safety so you will need to determine how to properly operate equipment in your shop to maintain your safety. You may want to consider taking some woodworking classes at
    your local college or craft center. Some Woodcraft stores around the US also offer classes on woodworking.

    The Big Horn orange push block and the Jessum stock holder are all you'll ever need, IMHO wooden push sticks risk collapsing with the grain overtime.

    • @ristinnovations
      @ristinnovations  ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree that the plastic push block and the JessEm stock holders are a great combination for most rips, however many people need to cut thin strips so that's when they need a wooden push block.

    Yes, Happy Holidays! And thank you for your work. I couldn’t help noticing how you jury rigged your fence in order to use the Jessem stock guides. I’d love to see/hear more about that since I find that I have to jury rig my own fence too and have some ideas.

      Hi Harold, Happy Holidays! I have a very old Delta Unisaw fence and many years ago I modified it to add an extruded aluminum piece so that I could cut full sheets of plywood easier. To mount the JessEm guides rail, I recently added a piece of 3/8" thick aluminum spacer to then allow me to attach the JessEm rail. It's very custom to my unique situation, however I will be doing a future video on the JessEm stock guides and I will cover how I added them to my fence. If you are a subscriber, you will get a notification when I upload that video, otherwise let's stay in touch and I can let you know specifically when I will be uploading that video. Thanks, Ken

    The Micro gripper is the safest one on the market. Not much of a chance you get cut if you use it correctly. Works on my router table, bandsaw, and table saw.

      Hi Steven, I'm glad you liked the video! I can't wait for you to see my next video because I will be debuting my ultimate push block design. In the video, I will be going through step-by--step how to make it. I will be very interested in your comments when you see it. I hope you and your family have a great Christmas as well! Ken

    Another awesome video, Ken! I am but a DIYer, not a woodworker, so I've used all manner of scrap pieces of wood for push sticks to just get the job done. Poor decisions I can see, not only from a safety perspective (which I knew about), but also from the point of skewing the wood while being cut, which I had not considered. Thanks for the continued education! Would you consider doing a video on the differences between direct-drive and belt-driven saws? I'm using my dad's 1964 belt-driven saw, and it doesn't seem to have as much power as my father-in-law's direct drive one. Can it be made better, or is it a technology long past its prime? --David

    • @ristinnovations
      @ristinnovations  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi David, Thank you for your comment! I will consider your request regarding doing a direct drive versus belt drive table saw. What is the size motor in your belt-drive saw? Can you provide me with more details? Also which model saw does your father-in-law have? Thanks, Ken

    • @iamhandy-man

      @@ristinnovations Hey, Ken, it looks like my table saw (which is slightly older than me!) has a 1 HP motor. My father-in-law purchased a DeWalt DWE7485, I believe, which is actually an impressive little saw. Which state do you live in, Ken? I'm in Maryland.

    • @ristinnovations
      @ristinnovations  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi David, I couldn't find an exact HP for your father-in-law's table saw, but typically the compact saws are ~1.25 HP, which is definitely larger than your saw. A jobsite saw is typically 1.5 HP, Contractor Saw 1.75, and a Cabinet Saw 2 - 5 HP so your saw is quite underpowered. Normally the compact saws are direct drive and the rest of the saws I mentioned are belt drive so in your case it's not the factor of direct drive versus belt drive, but rather your saw just has a very small motor. If you are cutting thicker wood, you may want to consider investing in a larger HP saw. I'm in CT. Ken

      @@ristinnovations THANK YOU, Ken! I had never paid attention to the size/power of the motor and now am shaking my head at that. Thank you for letting me know the typical power levels of the different tier saws; that was quite valuable to me. I was quite surprised at the difference in power between jobsite saws and cabinet saws. It is all so much clearer to me. Thank you for helping this handyman understand something about woodworking tools. (BTW, my mom grew up in Norwalk. A beautiful state!)
