High end tools. Pffft. Skill is the maker or breaker. Do good with what you have. High end means High money High sales High money in pocket 😅 use what you have. I'm using my late father's craftsman table saw. I won't part with it
Although I’m planning to build entire kitchen and bathroom cabinets because I can’t afford custom plywood cabinets and particle boards cabinets isn’t going to last in rentals. so I’d have to get router bits and diy router to make it faster and consistent. This is good if you’re building one or two
You did a very good job. However in the real work you would never make money. Lots of the things you did are structurally great but if you hired a contractor he would never be able to justify getting paid for it. Curious to know what you do to make money and still have the time to lose on doing this mudroom.
Hey! It’s been a long time but your 6th grade blue team science class has finally found your channel! This is Ryan Felty by the way. All of us miss you but we hope you are having fun doing what you do! -the 6th grade blue team.
The only way I can get my miters tight on my DeWalt Table Saw is to make one cut on the left side of the blade and the opposing cut on the right side of the blade. Even if your digital gauge says it's 45, it ain't. If you're off 1/8 of a degree, after 8 cuts, that's a whole degree. However, if you cut on the left and it's 44.9 degrees, that means on the right it's 45.1. These complement each other to form a perfect 90. Sure, may take a little more set up but it's worth it. Also, the only way to make sure opposite sides are the exact same length is to use a stop block. If you're eyeballing it and you're off 1/64", it's not going to give you tight miters. In my box making infancy, I ruined a very nice piece of Jatoba not using these methods.
Complete BEGINNER here and within thirty seconds you said you cut two "pieces" but didn't identify size or type of wood. I need a channel for someone who has never worked with wood. This isn't it. I searched the info on this video and couldn't find a material list...ugh...another few moments wasted on YT thinking this was the channel....
It’s a lot easier to run your grooves all at once on long boards before cutting to proper length. Thus avoiding constant adjustments to the blade and fence. Once that is done, you can move on to the tongues.
New to simple builds or any builds 😂 my mudroom has a concrete floor. It was originally the front cement porch, but the previous owners remodeled the house and enclosed it to be part of the house as a mudroom. What drill bit would you suggest to go through the 2x4 and into concrete?
Hey great video. I had a somewhat relevant question. When you drilled in the floor it looked like you drilled in about 1/2" in past the wood. Is 1/2" generally all that is required to fasten wood into another surface? I am building an enclosure and trying to decide if I should go 1/2" and 3/4" into the wood it is being fastened to.
Usually I try to go into as much wood as possible to get a good connection. But for this specific video, the screws were more for stability so I wasn’t terribly concerned about the depth. Just make sure you know what you’re screwing into and that there’s nothing your screw will hit.
