    You just never know when one of these videos will solve a problem... I didn't know about the sanding sticks but have had a need for a while now that they clearly take care of. I've ordered some from Lee Valley and will have them tonight! Thanks!

      ​@GB-mu9ue True enough... but if you don't know a certain something exists... and that certain something could solve a problem or meet a need better that what you have on hand -- that's when some videos like this can come in handy.

    Your shop is neat! I never could get my shop so neat. I worked all day most of the time away from my shop. When I went into my shop it was to turn something out that I needed on a job some where. I am in my eighties now and retired but my shop still looks like a tornado passed through it! I enjoyed your video!

    When you explained the 'copy of a copy of a copy' concept, the light went on. Thank you - this is the first time I have EVER seen this tip/trick/hack in probably over 10+ years of total YT content aggregate content. I always wondered how my plywood edge banding strips started to look like complete a$$ after five passes through the saw.
    Also, yeah, I keep forgetting to look into those Japanese bar clamps... and who would have known that your link for them not only went to Walmart, but that the geniuses at that company categorize them in 'fireplace accessories.' Not that we care, because we know what they are for.

    A simple mind set change will help a person reduce the amount of money they waste on tools. Don't see a tool and think it looks cool, buy it, and then try to figure out how you will use it. Turn the process around. When there are processes or actions you do that are tedious or don't work well, look for tools to help that activity. It's a simple little perspective change, but it helps... not that I still don't buy tools I have no idea how I will ever use the thing.

    Clamps. Rarely use them on my boxes. I've found tape is sufficient. Clamps squeeze way too much glue out for me. Just saying.
    Sanding sticks. I put some 2 sided tape on my paper, cut me a strip to whatever width and make a corresponding wood piece or use a popsicle stick. Plus I get to make something and not spend money.
    I would like to have some of those bar clamps though. Just can't afford them.
    Love your videos (esp. box). You've given me some ideas. Kudos and thanks!

    Great video, I'd heard of, but then forgotten about those little Japanese clamps. This time I'm gonna save some to my wish list! Also, what's the purpose of the granite slab on your sharpening box if you're not using it with the scary sharp (sandpaper) method? Since you're using diamond stones anyway, it seems a bit overkill in the expense department.

      My DiaSharp diamond plates come with a set of 4 rubber[like] feet that work fairly well. However, having clampable or wedgable end stops at each end, lower than the plate height, does come in handy during certain difficult sharpenings. A rubber mesh router or kitchen mat would serve the same purpose as the rubber feet. Just be certain you're able to dry off the steel diamond plates before putting them away if you wet them when using them, as rust is not your friend.

      Maybe 6/8 years ago some male friend of my then room mate, Carrie, looked at my collection of Pittsburg F-clamps that I'd bought back in the mid '90's (a dozen in each size) and, I guess to impress her, chided me about how they weren't as strong as the one's he had. I just looked at him and said (smilingly, of course), "If your joinery's good you don't need much pressure". He wasn't very happy.
