I bought this as a gift for my friend th-cam.com/users/postUgkxcZqgZ8Ynkiz5n_LxIWRlAicuzmz5kCHG who is just starting out in the world of wood work. He loves it!! There is a great section on different wood and what to use for what kind of job and a similar section for tools as well. The projects in it are things you probably would have a go at with clear instructions, pictures, videos and diagrams throughout. Great for a beginner/amateur wood worker.
The tip for using tape as a micro adjustment: So brilliantly simple I can't believe I didn't think of it.
Okay, I have a request - could you go around your wall and show: A) All of your tools, B) Tell us what they are called C) What the tools can do.
It would be awesome if there was a full video just about tools.
This would really help me out as English isn’t my first language, so basically while I can speak it freely, I do not know specialised language about woodworking yet - like what tools are made, or what they are intended to do, what kind of motions they have, what they can possibly do or be used for, if one tool can do other things other than say “this is a drill and it drills holes” lol
It would be awesome if you could go with all the tools in one video and brief description, and then maybe do a series of videos or shorts on what the tools can do in more depth? I’m pretty sure a good description of a tool’s capabilities can be fitter into a 30-60 seconds short. I’d love it. I’d really appreciate it. Have a think about it.
Before anyone goes - “why don’t you just google it?’, it’s often the problem - because I don’t know what to google. Like in my head - there’s an abundance of ideas, but there can be more or better and bigger ideas if my brand would know all of the capabilities of tools or what other people use a certain tool for even if it wasn’t made for that purpose. And as the saying goes - you don’t know what you don’t know, so it’s hard to google what you don’t know, when I try to google so,etching that I don’t know if it exists or what it’s called and I try to describe it to google, often in different languages - I usually 90% of the time end up sifting through pages of bs. And still don’t find what I was looking for. Most often I find what I was looking for from watching other people woodworking/ engineering videos 😅😂
Man, these are really useful. I’m always overthinking this kind of thing. Will definitely use the first tip to get the right depth on my half laps. I’d love to see more of these tips.
I always think that math and measuring will help me, but it’s often a clever way of approaching the problem that makes everything easier and better
I'm overthinking to and this make a lot of things so much easier. Logical thinking
Guys, these tips are invaluable! Especially when they eliminate measuring…such a headache. Please continue this series. Love it!
"The tape as a micro adjustement" - a tip that is worth it's weight in gold!
Very well explained and without any ANNOYING music. Keep up the great work.
👊
I think this is a very helpful series. Would love to see it continue.
😊😊😊👍
Thanks, I'm a hobbyist woodworker and getting my first FTG blade for dados--about a year ago--was a life-saver (no more chiseling out grooves from ATB blades).
The last? NEVER. We want more!!!
Please let this not be the last episode tip and tricks. It was extremely helpful
Just commenting to add my own vote to please continue this series. There are a lot of tips/tricks videos but the ones selected here hit that nice balance of extremely useful but not overly obvious.
😊👍👍
Please continue with this series. My only concern is remembering all of them in the shop! They are very, very useful.
Yeah! A helpful info graphic tip sheet would be great! (With little cartoon versions of Chris and Sean!)
I'll second that.
Fourth here 👍
I love this idea for an ongoing series! Keep them coming. I especially like that you take input from your viewers.
That dado drillbit was genius. You guys are awesome. Thanks for this video
Liked the dado trick. Blue tape to the rescue every time. Good stuff thanks
OOOOHHHHH!!!!!!
TIPS!!!!
It's "show us your TIPS!!!"
Dang it Bobby!!! Got me all excited for a second!
I am new to woodworking in any serious sense. I find these simple (in the very best sense of the word) tips are so useful. Thank you for taking the time to share them 🙂
This is some advanced technique. No sloppy work here.
Hooray! Thanks for sharing! I'm especially fond of that first one 😉
That tape micro adjustment is a surefire winner. Thanks for posting. 👍
Not just good tips, but good presentation too. Not over the top, without the usual narcissism. Well done gentlemen.
My favorite thing about woodworking magazines is the collection of tips they do. I'm ALWAYS interested in learning how other people have solved or simplified the infinite tasks of woodworking / making.
Please continue this series.
Whittier! I grew up there! Makes me all warm and fuzzy thinking about my hometown. Glad to see you guys adding to its history and commerce. I also liked the tips. I’m thinking about getting back into woodworking.
The tape trick for dados is awesome!
The first one was a winner!
Looks like Chris made PAPA Smurf a happy Smurf!
Good one on the painters tape trick.
Smart viewers! These are great tips. I'll double down on endorsing the painters tape for micro-adjustments. Sneaking up on cuts was the biggest revolution for my projects when I learned the value of it.
👍👍👍
Such a nice throwback to the thinking behind Inspire Woodcraft's channel!
Phillips half lap tip is very handy. Then again all the tips are awesome.
Great tips well presented. No fluff - quick and concise while still being nicely explained. More videos, please. 👍
Thank you! I am a new woodworker and can use all the help I can get. Love your channel, love your style, can't wait to get in the shop and use this to create the tables I wake up seeing in my head.
The blue tape trick is genius!!
The tape idea is amazing, thank you...
Tips (even as a reminder) are always good. Get rid of the ball.
Yep, happy with this tips and tricks...nice to see/learn from other folks' experience and thought processes!
That use of (painter's) tape was awesome!
Love the Jazz hat!
I love it. I love the amount of content in a short space of time. Don't get me wrong, I like long videos as well, but if I am about to try something new, I don't always want to sort through a 30 minute video to find the trick I needed!
The blue tape tip is solid gold!
Thanks for gracing us with your tips
My builder is building me a house and I'm going to be doing a lot of the interior finishing. I have lots of oak boards and will be using these tips on a variety of projects. Please keep them coming. And, thank you both!!
That first one, wow. Brilliant
That last tip is exactly what I need for my next project. Thanks guys.
This is a great idea for a video. There is a world of knowledge out there and I can’t think of a better way to get it into one place.
Honestly, insanely useful stuff. ALL stuff I have NEEDED on projects and literally ALL stuff I'm going to be using on upcoming projects. Thanks guys, looking forward to more of these!!
I love the router tip at around 7:15 or so. Adding the tape to move the router over just a hair to get the dado just a fraction larger for the board to fit into the slot is a great idea! Thanks for the other tips too! Great stuff!
I really like the format. Bring on volume 2!
Hot tips. I hope the algorithm gods allow this to continue.
Yes continue this series.
I just discovered your channel and after watching this video, subscribed. I'm not a precision woodworker and I don't have fancy tools, so tips to work around those limitations interest me. I must say also that you guys are not only extremely talented wood workers, but also extremely talented and innovative videographers! Your use of graphics to explain your work is exceptional. Keep up the good work. Y'all are amazing!!
Skip the table saw and buy a chisel.
Yes please, more!
There are lots of tips out there but you guys shooting and explaining them nicely is a bonus!
This series is super helpful. I'm just getting started and it's nice to have some quick, easy to remember tips that have huge impact. Between this and your "Taking Math out of Woodworking" I'm feeling much more capable
I learned a couple of things, and that's what life is all about. Nice job!
Very helpful. Keep'em coming for sure!
Don’t stop. These are great. Especially for us noobs who were just learning.
Great tips and a tour de force on the many applications of the humble shim. It's a good example of how certain basic engineering principles propagate throughout engineering disciplines. Almost like 'axioms'
Just one of things I love about woodworking.
Thx for sharing.
As a beginner, I need and appreciate EVERY tip I can find.
Please continue!
Brilliant simplicity. Several problems I had been plagued with, particularly the router dado and cutting the dado with the table saw. Thanks, I subscribed.
You guys are such an inspiration, I admire your work and follow it. Thanks for sharing. It’s because of guys like you I felt motivated to start on woodworking. Last year after COVID19 put us on isolation. Again thanks !
Very good. Please continue this series.
So simple yet so smart! Thank you!
The comments about the use of tape and the drill bit for offsets were very useful. Why didn’t I think of that !
This better not be the last tips and tricks video. Well done. More please
The both of you have such a interesting sense of humor. Over the years I always find my self laughing in the mist of learning something new on the regular. Props on the channel guys
New to wood working. I cannot tell you how helpful and inspiring your videos are. Thank you for this.
That tape trick for micro-adjustment is genius!
Guys, thanks for sharing! Liked the drill bit tip!
Love the half lap method
This is a great idea for a you tube show! You have my attention. Thanks guys.
These were useful, please keep them coming. Thank you.
Since I have been at this since 1976 all of the tips were solid. One point is that the drill bit idea could present issues. Just keep a few shims handy of the appropriate thickness. Nice work, I enjoy your shows.
Nice work. Using the workpiece and drill bit as a dado jig...great idea.
Really like the last tip with the dado. I’ve seen a piece of wood that fits in a blade kerf rather than a drill bit. This compensates for blade run-out.
Nicely done and humorous to boot. Thanks!
Nice Tips, nice big, well-formed tips.
Can't wait to play with them.
Absolutely do more of these!
4:54 this is a super cool tip!
I'm glad to see you young kids getting into woodworking.
Love the tip on better lap joints by using the tablesaw itself ! simple but so effective
Love the tips. Please make a series and playlist.
My passion is to make beautiful pieces and I’m not there yet. You’re one of those channels I consider at the top of the heap in that category so your tips are much appreciated. Thank you!
Work smarter not harder. Great tips!
thanks for doing this "tips" video, I hope this becomes a regular feature
Please keep this going. I just finished cutting a couple of half laps and missed the depth and had to sand a bunch to make it look right. The half lap top made so much sense.
😊😊👍
Love the one for the burning 🔥 marks/tapering... Hope to see more of theses.
Have a great New Year lad's
The jointer is another option.
Thanks for these great tips! Here's a product idea: shim tape. Tape that comes in precise thicknesses, like 0.010" etc. Doesn't have to be a huge roll, but it would really help in sneaking up to the precise width of a dado.
Loved the tape as micro adjustment tip, and all were very helpful.
I like the short vids. Clear, concise and usable.
Love these tips, makes my woodworking easier. Keep it up guys, really appreciated, when I get further into my fun, I'll be watching you whenever there's a new one!
3 tips in and this is my new favourite page
Love this! Always find it so fascinating to be able to measure something without proper measurement tools!
Thanks for the tips. I've used the tape technique and it works well. I especially like half lap--perfect and simple.
I remember your guys other video doing a cabinet built in job. I'm a carpenter that works with one other carpenter it works good to build each others skills and challenge each other to constantly improve our work.
I will watch every single video from this tips series.
These are great helpful things to try and remember. Please keep them coming TY
This was awesome!!!! Please do more of these!!!!
