You can really cheap out on the silicone glue brush by getting the silicone basting brush in the grocery store. Essentially the same thing, and really cheap. I use 'em all the time.

One of the handiest items I've found is rare earth button magnets. They act as keepers for my machinist square that is parked on my router case and keep steel rules organized and quick to access.

Great Video! I might have to pick up a few of those items for myself. One thing I use with every project is my 6 inch combo square. It's just a cheapo one from big box store, so I make sure its staying square about once a week, but I find myself grabbing it more often than any of my larger more expensive combo squares. And to spin off of your remote start for your vacuums, I grabbed a 110/220v rated remote start off Amazon for less than $25. I use a 2hp DC so needed something that could handle the higher voltage. The relay is inline so I had to do just a bit of wiring, which was no problem, but they have plug in ones similarly priced as well.

@rudispruell8832 ай бұрын
Depending on what you are punching, many automatics have a spring that's too strong. You may want to cut one or more coils off the spring. Go in steps. Loosen the cap until it separates, then do one turn back. Cut down until it is pretty easy to punch. If done methodically, you will ger a punch that, at its lightest, it won't bury itself in soft wood, but, fully tightened, will give you good marks on hard steel.

Those Jorgensen squeeze clamps can also latch together end to end to double the length. So you take two 12 inch clamps and connect the ends together to get a single 24 inch clamp... Its super convenient when you need one or two more longer ones. They (the Jorgeys) all do this, so you can take two 24s and make a 48, or two 6s to make another 12. Super feature.

What's the difference between those remote switches and the ones I use in my house to turn lamps on and off with? I don't think they're specifically for lamps, but I use them on antique lamps to keep from wearing out the lamp switches.
@EveningWoodworker14 күн бұрын
The garage style ones are typically more robust and can handle up to 15A, some of the smaller indoor ones can only handle a smaller lamp. For small dust collectors and shop vacs, you need the 15 amp one

I have a dual remote. one channel for the dust collection and one for the saw. why the saw. If I haven't used it in a while, I don't want any surprises on the first start. or if I'm doing a new setup or jjig, same thing. no surprises. I stand outside my garage and fire it up.

Not trying to be rude, but Starrett is pronouced Stair-it..not Star-it. Been using Starrett Combination Squraes for years. They are very accurate, actual the gold standard when it comes to combination squares. Company started making them back in 1880. Never used the plastic one you have, but I'm sure they are accurate too.
