Regarding static electricity and dust, it is a very real concern in industrial facilities. Examples include grain elevators and sugar mills, as well as production woodworking shops, cabinet makers, etc - all of which produce VAST amounts of very fine, highly flammable or explosive dust particles. Like you, I run one tool at a time. I also work with the main garage door and a side door open, and at least one, usually two, fans running, so there is plenty of ventilation - ie, there is never a high density buildup of fine dust in the air. Yes, you can get some static from pvc pipe, as well as metal pipe, but the risk of fire or explosion in my garage is very, very low. Yet to come, a filter box for the mini-split and an oversized air cleaner.
Great video and great help for making the table saw throat plate. I have to admit I'm not that good at making throat plates but this video is a BIG help, it also helps that I have the same Laguna table saw :)
I am gonna copy this! The entire ceiling!!! 😂😂. Quarter inch,,, one fourth is also correct, but makes you sound less knowledgeable in the eyes of a crusty old b*st*rd like me! 😂😂 Thanks for the idea!! Well done, VERY well explained (except for,, you know😂), and it looks good as well!
I am currently about halfway done with this rocking horse and had a question for you or anyone else here who has done this project. I just attached all 4 legs and sat it down on the floor and it doesn’t quite sit flat on all 4 legs, kinda rocks back n forth just a bit if that makes sense. My question is would you recommend taking the time to sand it accordingly so it all sits flat or just try and make the adjustments when mounting it to the rocker support piece? Thanks
Great project! We have one of the bosch compound miter saws in the shop. Its a really good saw but I dont have much to compare it against. The festool looks awesome but then you need the festool Domino and Festool tracksaw and a Festool paml sander....
Glad to see you back! Tip when routing on narrow pieces: put one of your other pieces on each side of the working piece so that you have a wider and more stable base to run the router on. Also, you could use a couple pieces of scrap on either side of your work piece, and secure then to the router base as fences, creating a channel that your working piece fits nicely into, causing it not to wobble. Hope those tips made sense! Looking forward to more videos!
In the US in 2023 there were 1,600 fires due to lithium ion batteries in the US with 115 fatalities, could not find any fires related to home dust collection due to static discharge in any year. I am sure someone in the US is worried about static discharge with there PVC ducting all the while plugging in the EV car or ? into there home charging system.
Haha, yeah that is a good point. I left the stove running the other day while we went out for two hours. I think me being dumb is more of a threat than static build up in my dust collection. Thanks!
You asked me to......i would have done everything differently...except 1: the glue, titebond 3. And 2: finish sand with 220. In the end it seems you did a great job.
My favorite scrap wood cart on YT so far was the one with a middle section for full sheets (so they stand up straight and don't need to be "leafed" through) and bins for off-cuts and 1x/2x lumber on the sides.
Interesting, I use a hive system and bulbs, linked back to both hive and the Apple home app, and have had them for around three years. I have not seen any of these issues at all.
I’m interested in your vacuum system? I’m trying to set up my workshop now and I really need to have ideas on how to make my vacuum system work for me and my tools around the shop?
I have a video previous to this video that is all about setting up my system. This year I’ll be setting up a new system in my new shop, so be on the look out for that as well.
I can testify that this design works really well. Consolidates so much lumber, sheet goods, and off cuts into a small area that can be moved around as needed for wood access or other shop operations.
Rotary drill mentioned is a brace and uses an auger bit. Uses a two piece chuck with a spring to keep it together. Rachet back and forwards for tight spaces. Often used for mortice and tenons in upright rustic studs and beams, fences gates etc. Vertical boring was done with your chest against the round pad on the top that had a bearing in it. No carpenter or bridge builder in the past was ever without one. Cheers from Australia.
Bought directions many months ago Decided to cut all pieces Like the idea of a folding table. Your directions do not show measurement details for circles as far as attachments to legs and top rail. Have you a more detailed plan that fills in the Measurements and leg placement on the circle pieces?
