the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. kzfaq.infoUgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9hL_ as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

More and more the stand alone toe kick base makes so much more sense than building a toe kick into each cabinet box. To be able to level the whole thing and then work off of a common level base simplifies things so much, especially if your floors are less than perfect.

I built a semi mobile miter saw station. One of the best additions I made to it was adding an inlayed measuring tape about 1/16th below the surface. I accomplished this by routing a groove and inserting a long adhesive backed magnet that you can get in rolls from amazon. I then laid in one of those measuring tapes used to attach to tools such as a table saw. The beauty of using the magnetic strip is that you can tune and fine adjust the ape measure because its not permanently adhered to the station, only stuck down via the magnet strip. I then added an acrylic tab to the adjustable stop that has a shallow cut in it which is filled with red marker. This is a simple way to make a cursor to line up the stop. I also added a flip to the stop and an adjustable miter stop but I wont get into that here.

Michael, this walk thru your growth is actually an excellent opportunity to show people like myself that highly skilled and talented artists like yourself started off doing things they felt worked for their immediate needs. As for myself, I just as soon not watch someone who acts as though they have never been in the novices' shoes, that they've never had to make something work until they could get better tools or more experience. Everyone starts somewhere, that first step and most do not pick up a tool and viola, a working project with no issues. So humbling oneself to show we are all learning is a good thing. Thanks, Jack

@Limosical Жыл бұрын

19:08 - When cutting metal it's important to get a good bite into the material, if you are pressing lightly then the heat is probably not leaving in the waste swarf but allowing it to spread to the blade, making the blade get hotter than it would otherwise. There's also the possibilty that you can press too hard and create extra heat too while also chipping/breaking the cutting edges. A good middle ground of pressure is required.

All I’m gonna say is…. The J. M. Dawley mitersaw measurement rail and stop..,is hands down the best you can get… short of an automated one. You can get ONE aluminum extruded rail that is up to 8’ long… maybe 10’. The “stop system” is amazing, as you can put in MULTIPLE stops on the back of the rail, and the sliding stop , stops on them.. or can go past them. Say… for a cabinet shop that cuts a few measurements ALL THE TIME.. so, just put in stops on the rail system, and it will always be dead on! It’s the best!!

Your ability to define the video ratio of: How much do I explain vs. How much do I assume the viewer already knows or comprehends, is spot on. Just the right amount of clarity. There are three moments of irony involved in me watching this video just now. 1. That cast iron Delta beast was also my first power miter box. 2. I also recently designed a new miter box station for my new compound/sliding miter saw. (Although mine will be portable.) 3. We share the same last name! Keep up the good work Michael!

Don't worry about heating up your blade on aluminium cuts, the chips will take out basically almost all the heat and unless you're cutting like 6" solid round you can be almost as generous as with wood when chopping it.

@justintomer2567 Жыл бұрын

While I agree that the blade heating up is not the issue, I've found that if you're too aggressive when cutting aluminum you tend to end up with some material sticking to the teeth, which can be difficult to clean and causes issues when cutting wood after the fact like more pronounced saw marks, increased tearout, and even burn marks if your blade is also a bit dull (which happens if you cut a lot of aluminum) overall it's just better to take your time cutting aluminum

@orientalwoodworks Жыл бұрын

I work in the trim industry. I’ve only used two miter saws, the Kapex, and the Hitachi C10 FSH. It’s undeniable that the Kapex is more accurate but under powered (as all Festool tools are😣) The Kapex has zero travel out the back but the Hitachi has the slides that run out the back. Also, the Hitachi is more powerful. However, on the job site, you basically just said the Saw up wherever, not necessarily up against the wall when you have to worry about space. Just food for thought; I am not in any way trying to influence the way you buy tools for your shop. Great video.
