In this episode of DiResta’s Cut, Jimmy needs to make a heavy duty screw caddy for his upstate shop. He whips one out using Japanese sycamore, some rope and some ipe edging for abrasion resistance. Along the way he shows you a trick for cutting thin pieces on a table saw without interfering with the blade guard and explains his ergonomic decision on what height something this heavy is best carried at. Enjoy!

Very sturdy caddy! The rope handle splice was awesome too.

@simplemanduke7128 7 жыл бұрын

I'm a rigger by trade. I humbly recommend you whip your splice in your line in compresses the splice so it bites better on itself. It also makes the line uniform in size. Thank you for making these videos for us here in youtube land. May your mind be focused and may you work efficiently all the while having fun....

Nice that use Sycamore. Over in the uk it's usually described as a worthless trash tree, but the wood is stable, useful & beautiful as you show.

Very great idea and build. I need at least 2 of those maybe more. I did some work for a man who paid me with cases of nails and screws. There is bean and coffee cans of these different sizes everywhere. With a couple of these caddys I could simply fill the been that's low and keep all sizes together instead of using soup , and coffee cans.

Perfect. Given you left the handle long, you might do up a leather handle to strap the two ropes together, baseball stitch. Looked like enough room to flop to one side when snatching screws.

Very Nice Jimmy! Wondered if you were going to put a locking top on it to prevent spills. It's always so much fun getting to watch you work! Loved the table saw trick cutting thin material! I just take the guard off and hope for the best! Not any more my friend!!!! 😛

@kafaliwen2868 8 жыл бұрын

Jimmy, why didn't you use a slide cover to prevent the screws from falling? it would been easy to carve a line with the router and put a piece of wood as a slide top. Great job as always

I would love a better look at it as I haven't been able to figure out how it was made and I'd like to make myself one. If you could show it off in a little more detail next time it appears in one of your videos that would be awesome. Thanks in advance, keep on keeping on :)

Nice design. I like how you "designed in" stackability" for when you make more of them for different stuff in the future! Yes...a couple for wood screws, one for nuts, another for bolts,another for pipe fittings,another for miscellaneous..... You could even make a master rack out of two by fours with hundreds of dado slots ready to store the caddys in!! :-)

@eformance 8 жыл бұрын

Jimmy, perhaps you should put a folding top on the caddy, to prevent the screws from flying out if it gets tipped over or dropped? I bought a couple of those stackable DeWalt divided caddy boxes to store my screws.

Hey Jimmy!! My name is Daniel and I have an important question. But first. I am 16 years old and I have to choose a job for my future. I saw of your videos and tried some stuff at home. I loved and love it to do some wood and metal work. So here is my question: Which job did you learned? I want to do the same thing :) Thank you for the inspiration.

@iderryan 8 жыл бұрын

+Kreuzkopf Daniel, you didn't ask me, but I do stuff similar to Jimmy. I find that the best course is to follow what you makes you curious. If you ask why or how about something, follow it and learn as much as you can. Buy some good quality basic tools to experiment with. You'll find your way.

@synapseZA 8 жыл бұрын

+Kreuzkopf Not sure if you know about the podcast that Jimmy co-hosts with Bob Clagett (I Like to Make Stuff) and David Picciuto (Make Something) - Making It (www.makingitpodcast.com). Jimmy talks about his early career in a couple of the episodes. I could look up which ones covered that topic, but frankly you should listen to them all if you have not done so yet :)

@MrMaleasy 8 жыл бұрын

+Kreuzkopf Hey Daniel, I guess you are from Germany, right? It is quite intresting to know, that such a thing as learning a profession is pretty much only happening in Germany. Well, at least that kind of thing, where you learn it for about three years and have to go to school at the same time. I would suggest, that you go to the Arbeitsamt, they are kind of good in suggesting an "Ausbildung" for you. Good luck!

On the base, we have the end banding with the grain at right angles to the rest of the base. I've always understood that such a join will inevitably fail due to differential expansion. Does Jimmy know something different or doesn't he worry because it's for the workshop?

@AlexJaynes 8 жыл бұрын

Do you have any concerns about wood movement? That solid bottom might shrink and swell enough to pull apart the box joints and dados. I would go with straight holes in the middle and slotted holes on the edges. Just a thought.

@jimmydiresta 8 жыл бұрын

Yes I am little concerned. But in my experience it will get smaller over time and settle there 2-3% shrinkage.

@doubledarefan 8 жыл бұрын

+Alex Jaynes I was thinking of the same thing, then I realized back in Summer '07, I have a box I built to hold a tissue box, out of Doug Fir (the 4 sides) and Pine (top and bottom). The top and bottom were the same width (cut from the same board) when I built it; less than a year later, the top (on 2 small hinges) shrunk 1/16" narrower, but the bottom is the same, still firmly glued on, and no splits. Diresta's screw caddy will probably see few/no issues likewise. Probably because, unlike my tissue box box, his caddy has partitions, which will surly keep the bottom stable. A few small splits are possible, though.

Great video Jimmy, thank you. I see you've started to use sawstop, I haven't noticed that on your videos before and thought you always covered up manufacturers names, are they sponsoring you, or have you just not had time?

@truebluekit 8 жыл бұрын

+Phil Waud Well, Jimmy did get cut up on his table a while back. He lost only a bit off his finger, I believe. He had the accident after 23 years of using table saws, so maybe it's a silent endorsement? Or maybe SawStop did pay him, I don't know. Either way, maybe he's saying, if you have SawStop available nearby, and you could afford it, why not have a look. Unless, of course, you're using a European-style sliding tablesaw, and your hands aren't normally situated close to the blade.

@PhilWaud 8 жыл бұрын

Im not disagreeing, I knew about his accident, and also how awesome Sawstop is. He has always said he doesnt do endorsements or sponsorship - I was just curious to see if this had changed (I doubt it), or if he has just not got round to "Diresta'ing" it!
