Great video. Thinking about buying a six inch augur for fence posts. Is an eight inch really that much better? I will be setting 4 by 4's for a wood fence.
Hi! Thanks for sharing! I’ll use your design to build wrap around planter boxes for my porch pillars. I’ve used 5/8” plywood to make cleats to hang heavy things like solid wood headboards, large mirrors etc.
Now that you have had the unit for a year, do you still like it and has it been trouble free? I have two Jet AFS-1000b's in my 420 sq ft (9' ceiling) shop that have now both failed (admittedly after good use, the first failed at 15 years and the second just recently at 19 years of hobbyist use - maybe 500 hours/yr). The new Jet 1000c units won't easily go in the same space, so I am looking at the WEN 1270 as a replacement, and I might only go with one as a single Jet did fine in cleaning the air at medium speed.
Totally worth it, I really like the timers on it. I set it to run for 2 hours after I am done and I don't have to remember to go shut it down. Been running trouble free, I can only hope I get 19 years!
Very nice job. One trick I learned from Rob Cosman is to put CA glue on the exposed MDF. Apply liberally and brush it in. No need for accelerator. It really hardens the bare MDF.
Thanks for the review. I just picked up an EGO, same basic machine. It's too powerful for me, it really rips you around, even with the smallest battery, I thought the anti-kickback would work better. I have very rocky soil (hardpan). I don't recommend getting one of these, my thigh still hurts from being smacked!
What a beautiful board. It's a real chess player's board - no distractions, simple (and you oriented it correctly, “light is right”). I wouldn't feel too bad about the engraving not standing out, I think it’s better than something in light letters “screaming” during a game. For a display board you can go crazy, but if your intention is to have this board actually used you hit the sweet spot.
Great vid, thanks! I have an old craftsman 113 with cast iron webbed wings and plan to do what you did. My only question is: wont the router wing be too heavy? Will the bolts be enough?
Just thought of something else. I always watch my material's reference edge when ripping... to make sure it's not drifting away from the fence. If your material thickness lands in one of those t-slots, you won't be able to see if it's tight against the fence.
Looks like a good upgrade to the very thin aluminum stock faces. But you had my OCD on overdrive with all that dust in the tube. BLOW that OUT! Wouldn't want any to get between the fence bar and your new t-track face!
Sir when I was upload surfacing program it's going to work one line and suddenly stopped and showing grbl 1.1h for help longmill mk2. Please help me....
The idiot who designed the base needs replacing! You are limited to small-diameter bits. I need it for a 1-inch round-over. The bit is about 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
I already have a fancy high end Triton for off the table, but its way too cumbersome to put on and off my router table; so Im looking at a cheaper one I can permanently mount up. I saw you make a few comments about the plunge action being crap; and thats a non isssue for the use case for me due to it being mounted in a router lift. Cheers.
3 zone valves with 1 24v transformer. My coworkers making me look like dumb at work. The way they engineered hydronic systems was a crap at work. Hotel😂😂😂😂. A few believes. The engineers are rusty 😂😂😂😂. They don’t know basic electric currents and wattages😂😂😂
6/6/24 this is the best wishing well with directions and blueprints. Your directions were excellent precise it to the point and understanding. I made a couple of modifications and streamlining the roof and side posts for the crank. Used the block stop at a 45 to take one inch off the roof board corners, came out excellent with still a 3-in overhang. Wife inspected and loved.Thank you very much Paul 👍
Hi thanks very much for your video on Jessem Router Lift Install. Could you please tell me what diameter and cutting length pattern bit you used when using your template to cut the final pocket. It looks like 3/4 diameter 1/2" cutting length but wasn't sure. It also looks like you are using 1/2" mdf for your template? I have been having some difficulty after creating my template cutting the final pocket. Thanks.
As a semi-experienced DIY-er myself, I really appreciated your humility and honesty - I think you might be a little hard on yourself. You didn't mention the priming button in the setup section, did I miss it? Also I really appreciated the tips at the end, those were very helpful. Thank you🎉
hi, just saw this video on upgrading delta 36-725 T2 table saw fence with t-track. I have the same table saw. I would love to upgrade with t-track but cannot find a t-track to work with the delta fence. Maybe I am just not looking in the right places. Please if you know where I can get the same t-track you installed I would greatly appreciate it. Taylor tools does not have it.
So, no worries, played with the t-track from Taylor tools (I ordered the t-track and tried to install but did not work) I tried it again and it worked not fence adjustments at all. When I originally put it on, I misjudged height. So truly thank you for the video without the video I wouldn't know that there was actually a t-track available for delta table saw.
I bought my Long mill over 2 years ago and that my friend is what I did and exactly how I did it for the fence, except I don't want T-Tracks. Great job
I have changed the fence design since. I have it split so I can slide a longer board in there if needed. Sure wish my spoilboard still looked this good. Might be time for a new one.
Thanks for ding the comparison. I was wondering about the Yoniko bits. I have used Whiteside, Amana, and Freud bits for years. They have always delivered top quality for my work. I will continue to follow the same path as always and stick to what I know has always worked for me in my shop. Thanks again Criss. I think I got that right. Ron .
I really enjoy your videos. I see that you have Wen products. Do you recommend the track saw? Right now ,I put the plywood on the floor on top of foam insulation and use the Kreg rip cut guide with the circular saw. It works but the cut is never exact.
I am still using my Wen track saw but like you, I never trust that it will be exact. I cut to within an eighth of an inch and then finish up with the table saw. I am looking to upgrade it soon.
Hi - I like the built and, love the measuring tape with the track for the stops. I'm working on configuring a one-car garage shop. My question is, since you've built this, have your ever regretted (might be a harsh word) not incorporating your table saw into the same built for out feed? Thanks, Matt
Hey Matt. My table saw incorporates my router table and has its own outfeed. I like having them separate and they are both on wheels. Works for my shop.
Measure twice cut once lol I use mechanical pencils when I'm doing trim carpentry but yeah a lot of people need to learn this or put the tools down if they are not willing to do it right they shouldn't be doing it
IF you open one of your gable vents & put a fan in the other, the air will simply enter one & shoot straight across your GH & exit the other leaving the lower part of your GH hot. LOW enter HIGH exit. !
Great video. Every other version of french cleat lumber racks has seemed wildly over-engineered. I know this video is two years old, but if you happen to notice this comment, let us know how these have held up since then!
Nice touch with the walnut boundary. I like the threaded inserts that you used to attach the lift to the particle board. I suspect you acquired those separately, and they don't come with the lift?
The outfeed table was definitely the best upgrade I did on this saw. I use it every cut! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-758DefXv8dk.htmlsi=qlv9_LxfnQYr0-jT
With the center being 28 inches and wood not angled is there enough room for the saw to swing all the way to 60 degrees. I have a dewalt 779, which appears to be similar to what you have on your table.
