I have done the hacksaw blade sandpaper trick for 30 years. Two ideas I used
1) by mounting blades using a couple washers as spacers behind the blade, I get the long with of the sandpaper in the slot.
2) By mounting the blade teeth down, the teeth have less chance of injury from accidental running hand or arm over it.
Also Teeth down also allow you to tear the sandpaper as if you are tearing off a paper towel .

Great tips, thank you!
Good idea, yes -- Another obvious thing would be to rig a small piece of wood to overlay it, to both protect it from hip-bumps bending the blade, but also to keep from any kind of general injuries. You can probably figure out some way to "lock" the wood in place such that it makes it difficult to inadvertently dislodge it, so that it takes an act of intent to remove it.
}}} 1) by mounting blades using a couple washers as spacers behind the blade, I get the long with of the sandpaper in the slot.
Guessing that's without bending the blade, right? One should probably be a lockwasher.
Yeah, upward blades, who needs fake blood....? lol Downward blade is good if you have no children around....I suggest putting the thing up on a wall higher.
I have done some woodworks in the past but this woodwork plan th-cam.com/users/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG helps me do much in a far lesser time than i used to do i have already built several projects with this plan and i intend to do many more soon. Thank you so much!
I like the idea that whenever this guy is not on camera, and he's just making things in his shop, he's still falling and stumbling and leaping across his benches like that.
The best tip that I know is: When pouring paint or primer (or whatever) out of a can, the addition of some painter's tape can really help. If you make a "V" out of the painter's tape it will greatly reduce the mess that you have to clean up. It makes the stream that pours out smaller and easier to control and also keeps the paint out of the lip of the can. Hopefully this helps someone!
I just poke a hole in the rim. The material just goes right back into the can. Just make sure you put the hole in a position where lid is going to cover it.
Came inside after cleaning my van wondering how I'm gonna vacuum the deep crevices. Low and behold the first tip!
That was a good tip wasn’t it. 😊
Those panel claps are F-ing GENIUS... Making them before I finish my daughters toy box. THANK YOU
I always lose my pencils. Now I've glued a magnet on my pencils and have put a pencil with all the saws, drills and a couple on the tool box. Now I am close to a pencil in all areas of my shop.
Bbb BBB BBB BBB BBB
I also started using the magnet pencil trick. Sometimes I even stick them to the table saw blade or drill press bit while setting up. The only problem is the pencil is really hard to grab once the blade is spinning.
I just ordered a deluth trading co ball cap that has a little sleeve on the right side for a pencil lol. Should be in any day now lol. Ive just been keeping them under my ear piece of my glasses or if it has a clip I hang it in the neck of my t shirt
I put a pencil between the top of my ear and my head in School once but I couldn't find it until someone told me. Now I glue a magnet to a pencil and another magnet to my forehead (OK but the ear thing was true).
Every year or so I buy a box of 12 dozen half pencils for about £4. I have a load in my box and every time I misplace one it's there to find another time. They're everywhere now. It's completely changed how I work!
I like to think he always runs like that to the next station in the shop, even when the cameras aren't rolling.
You have become one of my favorite woodworking channels. It’s rare for someone to be both knowledgeable and incredibly entertaining. But you have now set the bar so high on your intros, I don’t know how you can top that. I eagerly await the next installment.
Among a thousand TH-cam channels, I respect this channel the most, I wished I found you sooner, cuz I learned so much from your videos already, thank you for sharing!
the panel clamps you made are legendary - you sir are a genius. Im going to make some of these tomorrow!!! They deserve to have their own video - not hidden away in the middle of this one!
Beards are versatile, just today I painted the house, mopped the floor, scoured my cast iron pans, and bought a pickup truck with mine.
Don’t you mean, “Polished your pickup truck” with your beard? 😂
By far the best intro that the world of woodworking has ever seen 🤣🤣🤣👍
The very exact thing I thought!!! 🤣
I subbed after seeing it. lol
The Eric Andre of woodworking
We need to see the outtakes on that shot
My thought exactly!!!
Okay the panel clamp trick is about the best tip I have ever seen. Will be making some of those ASAP.
Same! So good.
it's actually a waste of time think about it.
Going to get stuff for a pair now!
Cut a slight taper towards the center to get even pressure across the surface. You can do this on the jointer, there’s some videos out there showing how to do it.
@@adambatesole1350, I think of them as “bellied”
For the paint/stain in the rim, I have learned a good trick is to take a small(ish) nail and hammer four holes equally apart from each other (making a 'square' in the circle) on the inside gutter that holds the lid on and keeps the liquid from getting back in the can. These holes act as a drain allowing the varnish or whatever to run back in to the main can, but once you put the lid on, they are covered up by the rim and seal, so your stuff does not leak or dry out. Love your channel!
Yes Kirk,
My grandfather taught me to hammer those drain holes in the inner rims of all my paint/ stain cans. So helpful 👍
Thanks dude! Love the videos!! Great humor - great work, all in all just fantastic.
At almost 62 with a couple of old motorcycle injuries, I feel pain every time he runs out of a scene and jumps into the next. However, even through the pain, a smile emerges.
Many people do fake falls on their videos. But this one deserves a best performance award, what a passion.
Following on the playing cards as spacers trick - use binder clips to "lock" your card stacks once you're happy with them, so when the stacks fall on the floor and you don't remember the numbers you won't have to redo them.
And you don’t have to play 52 card pickup….or 9 card pickup.
Another trick with the speed square you were using. Near the top edge is a small triangular hole with notches set at 1/4 inch intervals.
These are handy if your board has a flat edge and you want to draw a straight line down the board, say for a notch, or a groove.
You aling the flat edge, stick a penciled in one of the grooves, them drag the speed square down the board. Viola! Perfectly straight line.
„Gesundheit!“ so great!! 😆 Greetz from Munich, Germany!
You are so much fun to watch while being so informative, too. Thanks from a newbie who is absolutely loving this hobby.
I totally thought this was going to be an April's fools day video, but these are legit.
Same here.
Especially since there was playdoh in the thumbnail
I’m definitely gonna try beard finishing. :)
Everything he does could be an April fools video, but he's so talented while being so funny and entertaining.
@@TheDesignerXD I would have to grow a beard first.
I don't woodwork professionally, but the beard trick is 100%. Best applicator I've ever used.
I'll never get another Escoda Finest Kolinsky brush series again. Who needs a $400 2410 #20? Can't believe I've been so short sighted. Definitely subbing.
There are some amazingly talented wood workers on TH-cam that I have watched faithfully and from whose wisdom and experience I have benefited greatly. You, sir, are on that short list. Your knowledge base is extensive. You clearly know what you are doing and you clearly have the grit and determination to figure shit out or die trying. You have a cool shop and good equipment. But your delivery is exquisite! You are a joy to watch and I always come away having been deeply entertained and been taught something valuable. Thank you.
Yea, what he said?
Thank you for sharing your information. I enjoy watching your videos. Great job.
I really think you and "Uncle Knackers" from Australia should take your show on the road to various Woodworking shows. I would pay good money to see you two live. You are both filled with knowledge and just as important the ability to make your audience laugh and keep them engaged. Great work. I am green with envy over your workshop and your tool collection.
Clever way to promote someone else’s channel. I will check him out.
BEST... TRANSITIONS... EVER!!!
“Now you have a straw that doesn’t fall in your drink” 😂😂😂
Tips that are actual tips. A true rarity. Good job sir.
Awesome panel clamps idea. Man. Well done indeed.
Pop a hole or two on each side of paint can channel in the middle of handling using a screwdriver and hammer. This allows paint to drain on own inside channel and purge through for putting lid back on.
Also take a sctoch pad with sand paper and fold them over together. The scotch pad grips the non-textured side of sandpaper, so that the paper can be folded to use in different sections handled easily.
Thanks for the tips. Another tip for pouring stain or paint is to take a finish nail and put a whole in the bottom of the troth where the lid seals. That way when it fills while pouring it will just drain back down to the inside of the container. If you place the holes in the right location it does not affect the seal when placing the lid back on. Thanks
maybe it's that i'm a total novice woodworker, or non native english speaker, but i'd need this visualised/drawn out in order to understand it
My dad always uses a scrap of paper towel rolled up and shoved into the rim of those pop top cans. Then, pulls it out. Works great!
Very informative series, thanks a mil'! One of my best tricks is an ancient one. Get a bloc of hard soap, the best is the pure Savon de Marseille which looks like amber. Let it dry a couple of months and slice it about 3/4" thick. With that slice, rub the wooden sliders of your drawers if they are build the old fashion way, and rub the part of the drawer in contact with the sliders. It will act as a natural dry lubricant and your drawers will slide effortlessly without making a mess. It works also with old furniture.
2nd trick with the same soap: rub it against the screws used in hard wood and they'll be much easier to screw in, especially in harder woods, and won't break or squeak. Same thing with wedges in tusk tenons & mortise joints.
The main thing is to keep these slices as dry as possible, and the older the soap, the better it works.
BEST intro on youtube yet!
Fills beard with finish, works it into wood with said beard, then says about the next tip 'this trick seems a little goofy'. Epic!
Now to grow a beard 🤣
@@lizw7818 Good luck!
The vacuum thing is so satisfying!
If people would just read the blue book that comes with a speed square they'd realize how useful it is. Speed square is way underrated in a wood working shop
I have about 2 maybe 3 speed squares. But have never purchased one. I didn't know they came with a book bc I didn't know they sold speed squares, I thought they just existed in the universe and were just passed around the community as people needed them.
Bro you’re the best keep up your good work. You give me inspiration to get out in my workshop and get busy thank you
Wow, a tip video that actually has tips I might use. Impressive.
Retired, no housekeeper because I filled that void. The hack for a vacuum sort of thingy was amazing! A few tweaks and Bob's your Uncle!!!
Sliding off the table in the beginning was the best :)
Your introduction. Kills me. Love it
Hoped you would have a seminar on Pallet restoration but that has been done today! Love the tips man!
one thing i can always count on here is a high-energy and slapstick presentation
Funny and entertaining as always
Your panel clamps can be upgraded a little bit. We use a similar setup for years at the shop with really great results, it must have a light bow in your pieces of wood like 1/8" or so from each end, so when you're clamping, pressure is applied first from the centre then to the ends, very effective.
Yes. And you could go further by measuring the deflection. Put a block at the center, tighten clamps, measure deflection then trim to get the crook needed.
Love the panel clamps. Ty so much for saving me money
I swear these intros are getting more and more epic🤣
Fact!
One of the reasons I starting watching hah!
Just waiting for him to come through the roof with a tangled parachute trailing
Waiting for an out takes compilation of him screwing them up or hurting himself.
The crevice vacuum tool is genius! I'm totally ripping that off.
Note: If you cut the end of the straw at an angle, the crevice tool works better.
had to be That Guy.
13:27 I’ve had a miter saw for years and had no idea you could do the trenching feature! Amazing, thank you!
Not very accurate
Your tips are so helpful! Granted, I’m struggling with my own envy, seeing your epic collection of tools, but that’s my problem.
Thank you for offering tips for “normal people”, like making your own panel clamps, using play dough to pour finish, and measuring gaps with playing cards.
Btw, I’m not envious of the beard trick...something tells me that my husband would not appreciate me obtaining a “built in spreader”...
That entrance was incredible! Lol, Thank you for not being all preachy and adding some levity to your videos 🙏
Better than epic, stupendous!! The random opening is stellar. I learned I wish I could do those gymnastics but I’m too old lol.
I used to install/put together Church pews. We had to scribe the middle supports to the floor. My coinstaller always did this. I was never told how he did it...but thanks to you I now understand. Many thanks for this video!!!
Great series. At the end of the first one you said "I could talk about routers all day because there is a zillion things." How about a "Router workshop video" just helping people get the most from their router?
Anyway, thanks for making great videos.
I second this request
@@acheronregyri9398 Third.
OMG your entries always crack me up. Props bro! Keep up the good work!
I poke holes in the groove of the can for the liquid to drain back in, then wipe with a paper towel
Just like with a paint can.
I am completely entertained by this wonderful wood worker!!! A master craftsman!!!
Peel the foam off used foam brushes. The plastic underneath makes good glue spreader.
Laughed my arse off!!
The panel clamp tip is genius. Im definitely glad you gave that out
I'm laughing out loud at work when he loaded up the beard...best thing I've seen all week.
Hah, always love those funny "tips". Just don't try this one with glue! :)
Finally someone gets it.
Beard is the way to go for finishing
I'm just commenting for the algorithm gods.
Same
Likewise
So do replies count?
What about replies to replies?
@@isaach1447 yo dawg, I heard you like replies
Your clapping cols is the best I’ve seen in a bit. Thanks for sharing
10 seconds in I already liked the video. I literally burst out laughing like a madman at the slide clear across the table. Didn't see that coming. Hahaha
That was me, too. I have been painting walls after working all day, and I am WIPED... but after I saw that, I had to finish the video!
the "applying a finish" won the sub. awesome.
Any recommendations on flavors of playdough? I noticed you used blue raspberry but I only have cherry flavor available.
Hands down the best woodworking channel on TH-cam. Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
I've been woodworking for two years and I honestly never knew how to use the speed square to take advantage of the other marked angles. Thank you!
You can also use them with a weighted string to measure a slope and to make a simple level.
Y’all act like you know what woodwork even is
Ok! The wood clamp and beard trick worth EVERY moment of this video!! I love this guy (in a purely platonic way of course)
Can i get a link to where you shop for your flannels shirts? I feel like it would up my woodworking game!
For sure. Where is the answer to this one, Algorithm Gods?
I subscribed to your channel just because you have some crazy cool introductions and you’re really funny but very informative
Who knew the secret to a perfect finish is a great beard. Guess I better start growing a beard. Lol. That was awesome!
I think I have to pass on this one. :)
I didn't think he could top the "mouthful of wood glue" he did recently, and then...
Also, a 1 day old beard is a good replacement for 80 grit sandpaper in a pinch. 2 day old for 120, etc. After a few weeks of beard sanding, you're ready to apply the finish.
I've been growing out a beard for a while now, clouds have cleared and I can finally see its full potential..
Bugger me Mr Moth, I get tired just watching you runaround your shop. Bloody brilliant mate. Andy from Australia.
Most epic diving intro yet👍 and what's wrong with random? Makes me feel like I'm not the only one suffering from ADD. Love your stuff!
Hi Terry! ADHD here, and I liked the randomness of the tips, too. 👍🏻
I don't drink but I love the contact buzz I get watching your videos 😁
Looks like I need to start taking testerone so I can apply that finish 🤷♀️
Now I see why i would want a chop saw that slides. Thanks, great video!
Loved all the tips mate. Even the one you thought was silly with the straw. Went straight down to the workshop and used it. The sandpaper one was good too.
Loved the video and the tips and the drama!
Hate the ads.
I was honestly expecting this to be a complete april fool's episode, but was pleasantly surprised that most were honest tips with just a few gags thrown in.
10/10 on the intro. 9/10 for the rest of the content. I didn't see a single 'beverage' in this sucker
I thought for sure you were just going to cut off the chunk of wood with the price tag on it 😂
Paused at the hacksaw blade trick for sandpaper cutting. Very keen! Going back to the video now
I did the blood thing for real, when getting rid of the old tiles in my bathroom... Unfortunately, there was no one there to be blown by my badassness 😁
"Blown" or "blown away"? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Tip my father showed me to keep paint can rims from clogging (he was a professional painter). Get a small screwdriver and hammer it through the lid all around to allow the paint to drip back into the can. The lid will seal properly every time when reapplied.
Best woodworker intro ever! Now we all have to grow beards to apply finish
I had to stop the video as he rubbed his beard on the wood! Lmaooofl!
Wonder if the beard trick works with spreading glue?
It's alright for him with his dense and even facial hair. If I tried that with my beard the finish will look like a hedgehog fell in the tin and was beaten to death with the board.
The sneeze made me laugh out loud. Thank you for finding a balance between information and comedy, so fun to watch!
Okay should rename this series ‘Tips for projects you have made months ago...’
Also dude said PIVOT like five times and didnt make a friends reference.... FREAKING LEGEND
I kept waiting for the Friend's reference. it never happened.... 😢
I think he's too young for a Friends ref. Lol
@@justforfun0708 BLASPHEMY!!
I thought I was the only one expecting that🤣🤣
HI Jason. Keep these videos coming, they are great. Thanks mate:)
18:48 the one of the a few moments i wished to be a man with the beard😂💔
I have needed that little crevasse tool idea for half a century. This one will be going viral with the ladies. Big time.
"Getting tired of all this running around."
Yeah, me too. Stop doing it.
On a positive note: solid tips. 👍
Perfect combo of crazy and cool. Like it. Keep em coming
"stock wood from Home Depot. It's not that expensive".
Umm, except in late 2020 and early 2021.
A 1 x 2 x 8 is 8 freakin dollars here in San Antonio.
I always enjoy these hacks and tips. Thanks
That fake blood is totally me, don't feel it half the time when I injure my hand 😅
Same
That trick with the straw is brilliant.
