I want all my saw advice to come from a guy with 9 fingers. He obviously has some experience with saws and how they operate. Edit one year later- I cut the living shit out my hand at work on a miter saw. I literally cut my thumb halfway off. So do what you will with that information.
Genial amigo, muchas gracias por compartir tu sabiduría y tu trucos para este trabajo, no tenes una idea cuanto hace buscaba un video asi que sirva para fabricar tarugos...Felicitaciones!!!
I would normally be warry of taking tool tip type life hacks from some one missing a finger but this looks REALLY cool and potentially useful. Thanks for sharing it :)
A lot of videos that show supposedly better ways of doing something are usually the same as far as time taken, and results generated. Some of them are a total waste of time, and are not always the safest to perform. Having spent years doing residential renovations you learn to make a lot of your own tools, and come up with some incredible techniques. Rarely are any brilliant, but this one definitely hits the mark, especially if you don't have time to go to a store, or else they're closed. This I will definitely put to good use. Thanks for posting this.
Yeah, all you have to have is pieces of wood that will fit through the holes, clamps, a drill with drill bits, and wood to drill the hole in. Seems like just buying dowels is a more brilliant idea and less waste of time.
@@ceedogg4270 having spent decades doing all types of renovations and having to McGiver things that you can't purchase. I found that I can use this technique to make specific dowel diameters not available on the shelf. And being able to make a dowel that requires a different diameter on each end. This is easy to build, I use my table saw for cutting the recesses for the jigsaw blades, much quicker.
@@ceedogg4270 Unless you have at your disposal all of the relevant components. I can definitely say if i need dowel on the job in the future the time saved by not having to drive to the store will definitely eclipse the effort required to do this on the job. On top of that the option as stated above to create a specific custom diameter is also invaluable in certain situations. This was a very useful video for me.
Cool idea if you're in a pinch & can't go to the store👍🏼...but it's also much easier & practical to just buy the right sized dowel...by the time you set this up, your time will cost more than the dowels you make.
Realmente muito interessante. Vou nao so aproveitar as serras quebradas mas tambem me tornar independente ao produzir o que me for necessario! Parabens peka ideia!
Esta bien pensado pero a la larga No sirve. El acabado es áspero, no liso y la fricción del rozamiento entre el soporte y el listón redondeado acaba desgastando la base e incluso puede quemarse u arder. Una vase de metal con orificios es más fácil de hacer y duradera.
This is the first of the "brilliant trick" videos I have watched that actually is a brilliant idea. Make all the dowels you want. Ingenious. Congratulations.
It's a creative idea, but really only useful if you want to make a non standard dowel. If you don't have any particular need for a special size or material dowel, then the cost of the material you're using to make dowels is going to be multiple times more than simply buying them.
Just something i noticed. The blades you put in were facing the same direction. So when you put a rotation on the wooden dowel, only 1 blade is actually cutting. If you made the blades both face opposite difections(as in the cutting sides towards eachother. Then when you rotate make sure the rod rotates the same direction as the cutting teeth.
Maybe it's too aggressive with both cutting simultaneously, and the other one is more of just a bearing surface to keep things smoother and straighter. Would be interesting to see though.
If opposite directions meaning cutting teeth both always cutting into the wood, you WOOD 😆 not be able to start the dowel as the wood WOOD 😁 chatter and not get started. Therefor, having both blades face the same way, the wood will get a chamfer on one side and then the other blade takes the bite.
That's a good observation. I really liked the concept of the jig. The general concept is quite smart. Improvements are a trial and error. Kudos to the presenter, and to the innovator.
Great idea, one thought I had was if it would work better/easier if you flip one of the saw blades around so the teeth are pointing the direction the wood is coming from. As the blades cut as they pull normally no both directions
I'm not going to lie I usually pass on these kinds of videos because they are sometimes ridiculous but this is pretty smart and I'm going to use it, I have a bunch of old jigsaw blades and I use dowels all the time repairing guitars and furniture. This is great because you can run the drill index in dowel sizes. Nice job man!
Same here with the pass on most of the foriegn 10 easy simply blahs blahs blahs ideas almost always a waste of time. For example diy lathe the dude actually uses a lathe to make it, this though definently would use but with a couple tweaks/mods I would make it into a table so you wouldn't have to clamp every time also I see the versatility/eco-reuse factor of the spent/broken blades however for the table I mentioned above I would buy a large blade, you like the 12" or 16"ers probably Diablo or Irwin brand and cut into 3 inch pieces.....CHEERS
I'm not going to lie I've been doing carpentry for 24 years now And I had never thought of this nor would I have ever thought of this. I'm usually a little bit apprehensive when I hear people say brilliant and a title but this was indeed brilliant
you should turn the blades opposite ways so that it cuts in both directions, otherwise only one blade is cutting. I was skeptical but this is actually interesting....
Many are assuming he cut his index finger while working with saws. He could have lost it in the arms or anywhere else. Give him credit for his great idea. I learnt something - Thanks very much
La verdad sr nunca comento los videos pero de éste no puedo dejar de destacar su sencillez y eficacia. Muchas gracias por compartir sus conocimientos 👏👏👏
Genial eres brillante , nunca se me habia ocurrido , veo sus videos siempre pero este me dejo con la boca habierta , a mi me encanta la carpinteria , gracias y siga dando esas brillantes ideas
Yea, I like this, gets my wheels spinning for projects that could use this method. Great for people that don't have a lathe and wanna make something happen.
A guy with 9 fingers = someone who without a doubt follows every possible safety protocol, and makes sure anyone he teaches does the same. 👍 Also, holy shit thats genius
Este hombre Sí que sabes! Por eso lo sigo, muchísimas gracias por compartir esos conocimientos tan importantes para retenerlo y ponerlos en práctica, FELICIDADES POR EL ESPACIO!!
Vaya. Que. Estupendo.. Tremendo trucaso... Excelente. Quede. Sorprendido... Que. Facil. Y yo que. Hacia para. Tarugos. Y. Los hacia dandole con un formon.. Jejjee. Gracias por. Su. Video hermano muy bueno... Reciba muchas bendiciones
