The immortal Bob Ross used to teach "There are no mistakes, only happy little accidents in our world." I like how you have happy little accidents and just roll with them.
Really enjoy your "How To's". This today about the making of the Router Table was one of the best I have seen. As a r3sult, I ordered your instructions. Wish me luck!! Thanks for showing some possible mistakes to avoid.
I love these videos. They are very inspiring and informative. Has anyone else noticed the irony that the people who make these videos have all the nicest tools and shops, especially in the background? It does get frustrating sometimes when you see them using a nice finishing tool to complete the project they are showing us how to make.
Turned out great. I like that phenolic/BB sheet, thanks for the link. I'm glad I'm not the only one that makes obvious mistakes!
I like this design very much! Incorporating the Power-Lock dogs is pretty slick! Well done. 😎
I'll be building one of these!
Great idea. I’m definitely going to have to look into those lock dogs.
Nice, practical and inspiring, I wish you much success 👍
Really fantastic work, dude! 😃
I'm definitely going to make one of those!!!
Stay safe there with your family!
Yep. Those adjusters rock, and trying to get that rabbet just right would be an exercise in frustration.
As with some of your projects you should find a way to batch out these parts on your CNC and sell kits with hardware included.
Great video !!! thank you
WOW! TH-cam woodworker using tablesaw bladeguard! You dont see that everyday))
Thanks for another great video. You inspired me to do this one.
Great build 👍🏻 do you sell your plans in metric measurement to?
Great job! Love the play-by-play commentary. Question: What is the brand of your Equidistant Measuring Tool? Thanks!
My first table was even simpler: I mounted the router directly under the plywood, not using a separate plate. I clamped the plywood to the edge of a workbench, without any special system. The fence was just clamped on either side -- but I also worked with a single peg rather than a fence, and IIRC I just screwed a piece of dowel down to the table.
17:33 You can stick on a layer or two of tape on each side of the tool caddy to act as shims for the feet when clamping too
Unrelated, it was so cool seeing you at the Bourbon Moth event in Nashville, and hanging out a few minutes. Loved chatting with you. Next time I'm in town (which might be soon), dinner on me, yeah?
This is an awesome router set up. Do you sell these?
You just poked both my inner 5 year old and my inner teenager with those clips. 😂 Then you gave me a purpose for an old cordless router that I don’t use much since upgrading, so that’s a pretty perfect video lol.
I'm rather amazed that you installed those t-tracks without screws. You wouldn't think that the epoxy alone could keep them in place. Nice build overall, good luck!
Oh yeah plenty of hold for this purpose
I really like this table. As a new woodworker I’ve been looking for local sources for materials. All of the pro woodworkers are using Baltic birch. I can’t find Baltic birch anywhere around me. All the plywood I can find is no better than what’s available at Home Depot.
If you don't want to pay an arm and another appendage for some UHMW covered plywood, a source can be the treadmill that is sitting in your (or a friend or family member's) garage or living room. I have gotten into taking these things apart for parts, and the first one I took apart had a nice floor of this stuff. There are PLENTY of uses for such stuff. But you also get some rollers, a speed controlled DC motor (usually around 2 HP or so), and all kinds of frame pieces, among other things. They don't ALL have that for a floor, but the better ones can. Even the cheaper ones have a nice piece of something in there. And hey, it's free.
Now, here is the best part of treadmills: NO ONE WANTS THEIRS! They are nothing but a reminder of their failure, and now it's just burning a hole in their minds about how much of a failure they really are. It's taking up space they want to use for other things, they just want it gone, no money must change hands most of the time. I've never paid for one yet. So when you come along and remove the evidence of their failure, you are a HERO! They will love you forever. And you've got a ton of things that you can use for other tools, fixtures, modifications (those DC motors work great in lathes and drill presses- imagine never having to change a belt again!), or whatever floats your boat.
Okay, I know it's a woodworking shop, but hear me out. You could always get something like an XTool P2 CO2 laser and do some of that acrylic work and such. I have one and it's fantastic. Or you know I'm sure one of your loyal subscribers might help you out too. 😊
Great ideas here. Looks unfinished though, maybe some walnut stain to match the holder and a sealant over the plywood?
That's the beauty of a shop project you can make it however you want 😁
One quick question and I'm not trying to be facetious here. How come you didn't just use the edge guide and palm router to make the grooves for the t-tracks instead of the table saw?
Pry bar?
looks like a hive tool to me?
should we bee in similar groups for two hobbies?
It's a pry bar for removing trim
@MWAWoodworks still looks like a hivetool, and I've rewound & watched that bit again at least 5times.. lol
anyway, I'm enjoying your VIDEOS here in the UK 👍🏻👍🏻 KEEP THEM COMING 🤞🤞
Awesome thanks!
Coming from somebody who fabricates sheet plastics.
Depending on the size of your offcut, and the popularity of that particular size and type of plastic.
Your black 1/4 cast acrylic could have been on the shelf for month, even year's 😅, older it gets the harder it is to remove the paper.
I don't get it, how can all these guys afford to make all their shop tools out of Baltic Birch? That has got be close to most expensive plywood.
I don't understand... you showed laminating a Formica sheet to plywood, but said you didn't do that, but bought the sheet directly coated? But it's coated with layers of phenelic resin (a.k.a. Formica), not just the melamine top layer... so it's that just the same as sticking the Formica to the plywood? The only pre-coated stuff I've seen is the melamine bonded directly to the plywood which is more durable and whatnot then using a sheet of phenelic to make laminate tops.
Yeah I almost always use Formica. But because I wanted experience working with phenolic coated ply I bought some of that instead. The two are not the same as Formica gives a much thicker and more durable cover, the downside being you have to buy it it 4x8 sheets which I didn't needs to make one small router top. Hope that helps!
Oh you don't need a special blade for cutting aluminum? I never knew that!
No, carbide will cut it just fine, I have used a regular woodworking miter saw to make hundreds of cuts in aluminium profiles at work.
Also, at ~17:50 you (properly) said "drill pilot holes" and didn't say "pre-drilled". Thank you for that. The use of "pre-" is getting silly in the wood working community. :-)
11:35
Did you use some AI magic on audio track because I dont hear room echo? 😅
😁
Every screw up is a "design opportunity".
Congratulations on your work! I wanted to know what kind of treatment the multilayer of the countertop has. I would like to buy it here in Italy but I don't know what it's called. Thank you.
