The idea of flipping the miter gauge around is brilliant. Why didn’t I think of that!

@sailingeric Год назад

I figured that one out a couple months ago, it was a game changer in bigger panels vs trying to square up a guide for the circular saw

@NewtonMakes Год назад

Exactly how I felt when I accidentally thought of the idea while trying to make a cut.

@HyperactiveNeuron Год назад

It is genius. I saw someone else doing it not long ago and it blew my mind.

@ryanm2214 Год назад

No kidding! Learned about that recently myself. One of those "no brainer" things when it's hind site lol.

@Monduras Год назад

How does this help? I thought the purpose of the push block being behind is to support the board. If its ahead why even use the gauge? Just send the material through

@brian-hall Год назад

A tip I use on templates, especially for the scroll saw, is to make the lines red rather than black. My old eyes have difficulty distinguishing between the line and the blade (on a scroll saw the blade and the line are often a very similar size). Now with red lines it is much easier. I hope this helps someone

@dsigetich 7 месяцев назад

My first video of yours - won’t be the last. Thank you - good tips. I’ve been using toothpicks to fill up screw holes for years - adjusting doors in old houses, man. Never thought of CA glue with them - good idea.

@cabman86 Год назад

For filling screw holes I use bamboo skewers. I use them for dowels on thinner projects too.

@joepearson9704 Год назад

Its like this video was calling my name today. I have needed almost every one of these tips recently. Thanks.

@NewtonMakes Год назад

Glad it was helpful!

@ethanhumphrey5758 Год назад

Thanks for this video. I particularly liked the tip about double gluing mitres. I normally solve that problem by just using a ton of glue and dealing with the squeeze out afterwards.

@moonwolf7135 Год назад

Have a tip for hinges I got center bits from rockler for drilling the holes on the hinges that help make getting your holes perfectly centered each time. It really helped me out when lining up the screw holes.

@basementbrew Год назад

Mitre flip!!! Genius!

@lindewoodworking Год назад

Fantastic, Billy! Thank you

@tatehogan5685 Год назад

I like to think that I'm pretty aware of most tips and tricks but you blew my mind with the backwards miter gauge solution. I'm enjoying your channel, thanks for the content!

@watermain48 Год назад

Great tips Bill. Thank you for sharing them.

@TomDanaher Год назад

Some great tips, thanks!

@basilreardon5783 Год назад

Thanks very much for your simple insight, great simple solutions for those fine cuts 👍

@onsapplikasies8620 Год назад

Cool tips. Thank you for the video.

@scottfield598 Год назад

Really enjoyed this, learnt a few new tips, thanks

@bansheeindahouz7594 Год назад

Thanks for the awesome tips!!!!

@JimmyLee0757 Год назад

Great tips. I'm in the middle a Master Bath remodel and the thin strip jig would be awesome for the trim I'll be cutting for the cabinet drawers and doors. Thanks for sharing with us.

@HyperactiveNeuron Год назад

Great video and tips! 🍻

@MCsCreations Год назад

Fantastic tips, Newton! Thanks a bunch!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

@hardnox6655 Год назад

Good stuff. I use circular saw blades all the time for initial rough cuts when using slabs or reclaimed timbers. Much better than using and expensive blade and then having to resharpen.

@aaudain1 Год назад

Great idea 💡

@guillermomartinezyg.2547 Год назад

Killer tips ... thanks !

@user-yt4xu4en5f 8 месяцев назад

Thanks man! This is awesome

@BenNawrath Год назад

It's funny this came up in my feed today. Just yesterday I was talking with someone in my woodworking club about scroll saw patterns. She uses contact paper on the wood and (I think) glues the pattern to that. It's much easier to remove from delicate things, and apparently the plastic or adhesive on the paper actually lubricates the blades!

@melodywilson5255 Год назад

Wow! Thanks for this video! I had never heard most of those. Usually you hear the same tricks over and over. They are great, but life nice to have some new ones. I really like the toothpick, contact paper and the circ saw blade one

@NewtonMakes Год назад

Awesome to hear that you liked it!

@nawavlogspot Год назад

Come learn. Thank you for sharing this interesting video

@biscuittreewoodworks Год назад

Great tips! Using contact paper is one I haven't heard before.

@whoever6458 Год назад

Cool! One of the few tools we don't have is a table saw but I'll keep these tips in mind in case we ever get one.

@randypowell4799 Год назад

good information.

@andrewavellino6427 Год назад

The Diablo 50 tooth combination blade is a thin kerf blade that also has flat teeth every few teeth, in case somebody needs a thin kerf flat tooth blade home Depot sells them for about $38. Surprisingly their 24 tooth ripping blade does not have flat teeth

@dottyjyoung Год назад

That toothpick mistake is going to save my butt repeatedly, I know it. Thank you!

@williamellis8993 Год назад

Great tips, Billy. One more idea that I would add is a rub joint when you're gluing, It can save a lot of headaches too. Bill

@NewtonMakes Год назад

Yes and it provides a little bit of suction that helps hold the pieces together. 👍

@MadMonk67 Год назад

I learned the toothpick trick from my dad. It's saved my butt several times on door strike plates that don't line up after changing the door or the door hardware. 👍

@tomhargreaves8820 Год назад

Useful stuff, thanks! (Aside: it's interesting that you and Jodee Bickell, at Inspire Woodcraft, gave us the reversed miter gage idea on the same day.😊

@NewtonMakes Год назад

Ha! Really? That's pretty funny.

@MikeyDonna Год назад

Your idea of glueing end grain twice is great , but can be even better if you dilute the first application . The thinner glue will soak even deeper into the wood fibers. Let it skin over then apply the second coat of regular thickness.

@rodneymilner8893 Год назад

good for hardwoods that have smaller pores as it allows the glue to get in easier

@ArmyVet76 Год назад

Great video 👊🏼 Never thought about using a circular saw blade in the tablesaw 👍🏼

@curtisaitken7027 Год назад

What do you think of CA glueing hinges to the material before sinking screws? Idea just came to me.

@PassionStudioMedia Год назад

i’m looking for a thin kerf rlving knife for my dewalt dw745. can not seem to find it easily on the internet. Anyone have an idea where i can get one? Thanks

@SawdustmakerLori Год назад

Great tips.....thanks! I would recommend caution using a thin circular saw blade in a SawStop though. I believe you need at least a 3/32" blade for the brake to be able to work properly. There is a tremendous amount of force when the brake hits the blade and a real thin blade cannot withstand that force.

@NewtonMakes Год назад

Excellent point that I would not know since I don't own a saw stop.

@Mike-ou5ps Год назад

Saw Stop table saws are over rated anyways. Been doing woodworking for over 30 years, never needed a brake for any tablesaws. Worked in MANY shops, not a single one had a tablesaw with a brake. It just isn't something that's needed. Don't waste your money on a gimmick feature. If a brake was "that" important to have on a tablesaw, they ALL would have them.

@disklamer Год назад

@@Mike-ou5ps Depends on how important your fingers are...Even the most experienced and safety conscious trade veterans may get distracted or lose focus for a split second, which was enough to trim my uncle's left fingers just 1/8".

@Mike-ou5ps Год назад

@@disklamer Well. That was kinda my point. Obviously, no one wants to lose any fingers and sure, it does happen, even to seasoned pros, but so do kick backs which could be even worse than losing a finger. Point was though that the insane extra cost for that "safety" system isn't worth it cause in the end, your still going to the emergency room. As well to that point, how would you even know if that braking system was still functioning? You gonna bring out a chicken leg or something and test it out from time to time? These tools are dangerous. You know that going in. It's a risk you take. I'm not saying don't buy it. If you feel you need that safety brake and have the cash to fork over for it, go for it. But if that is the case, perhaps using a tablesaw isn't something you should be doing to begin with...I can lose a finger using my router just as easily.

@tektrixter Год назад

@@Mike-ou5ps When SawStop's patent expires many other manufacturers will start implementing a break.

@douglasanderson7260 Год назад

Is there a safety difference between using a thin strip jig, and just using a feather board? Or is it that the thin strip jig easier adjust? I am just wondering because the only times I have ever needed to cut thin strips I just setup a feather board, and then decided not to make another attempt at that until I made or purchased a zero clearance since the gap between the table saw blade was a bit too small and I had one of the strips fall into the table saw. But from the cutting the thin strips the feather board seemed to have worked.

@NewtonMakes Год назад

They do different tasks. Technically you could use a feather board as a registration guide but it has a lot of flex to it so the pieces you cut may not be the same thickness.

@mbmurphy777 Год назад

If you get a Laguna Resaw-king carbide bandsaw blade you’ll be really happy resawing on the bandsaw. It also gives you a really good surface finish for a bandsaw so there’s less work due there as well. Expensive but it’s Stasior forever and is much faster and quieter than regular blade. Much thinner curve as well. If you’re trying to make a bunch of veneers have a board you’ll be able to get more slices

@NewtonMakes Год назад

I have two of them. They were defective and broke along the welds. Seems like a more common problem then it should be.

@mbmurphy777 Год назад

@@NewtonMakes That’s interesting. Mine broke as well and I had to send it in to be fixed. I’m not very good about detensioning the blade when I’m done with it though so maybe that has something to do with it

@NamVeteran420 4 месяца назад

Great tips thank you

@frasespravida0044 Год назад

LEEGAALL LEGAL 🥇

@hurcorh Год назад

Resaw on the table saw also takes prohibitively longer along with the huge increase in waste. I liked this tips video but really think the bandsaw is under utilised in most shops, they can be very accurate and safe tools.

@jimpeterson5565 Год назад

What Rusty Guy said!

@seymourwrasse3321 Год назад

tip number 11, always count your fingers before and after making a cut with any type of saw, that way you know to root around in the sawdust to find them
