The Festool stuff is 100% worth it , I have the track saw and sander plus the midi dust collector and they are game changers, the track saw in particular, so good for breaking down sheet goods without having to manipulate sheets on a tables in a spall space. I highly recommend.

I definitely appreciate shop tours that talk real about costs (what they paid & what it would cost now). I think that is so great. But speaking for many of us, we would have loved to see in your drawers. I enjoy seeing some really nice organized stuff, but I also like seeing what people have and how they set it up based on what they do/their skill etc. Planning layouts or seeing a better place/way to store something has been really helpful to me (especially in small shops). But yeah, this was my first video of yours so I will have to check out others to see what you keep in there. And I am definitely gonna subscribe just because of this video. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to checking out what else you have up. Best!

Hey, first time here. Really liked the video. Honest, informative, easy to watch and kept my interest. Looks like you have it set up well for the things you build the most. The scroll saw is a good example of paying more for something you’re going to use a lot. I probably wouldn’t spend that much at this time because I don’t think I would use it too often. But it makes sense for you to have one that does the job well and will last longer.

Great video, really well done. So I work in a 15 man shop. If you can find an Architectural woodworking shop in your area you might be able to get the plastic laminate (Formica is a brand name) either for cheap or free. Possibly even already laminated to a sub-straight. We throw away a ton of stuff that might be useful for a small shop or homeowner.

It’s wild how different people’s experiences are with Ridgid products. I bought an R4560 and had nothing but problems in terms of precision. I sold it and went back to using my Bosch 4100 on a heavy, custom bench with casters. I’m convinced I get more power and precision out of this aluminum-topped, 10-year-old jobsite saw. My friends, however, love their Delta 36, which is the exact same saw. (I mention this before others point out that the R4560 was manufactured by Delta and therefore inherently different from other Ridgid products.) Regardless, this is the first video of yours I’ve come across and not only did I subscribe, but I also committed to notifications for “All” videos you post moving forward. Cheers and best of luck with your continued success!

@SamMacyDesigns Ай бұрын

You're the man! Thank you!! I sometimes wonder if there's a lot of variation when it comes to the production of machines from big box store brands? I had two buddies buy the exact same table saw for projects on their honey-do lists after hearing me rave about it; one of them loved his and the other got one that wouldn't even turn on and returned it...and I recently ran into a guy who is still running a 50 year old powermatic out of an old high school wood shop so you know that thing has seen some abuse 😂

great video - opened my eyes on the drum sander. can it really replace a planer while also gaining a huge leap in efficiency during finishing stages of projects? I am mostly consider this question within the context of applying to hardwood live slabs for furniture - think epoxy tables, hardwood counter tops, and hardwood shelf and desk projects. Don't have a planer and considering eating the cost and just getting the jet drum you have. Thank you!

Great tour with some really great ideas. One question, what’s the size of the shop?

@randysonnicksen9475 Ай бұрын

Perfect video for me. I'm approaching retirement and my shop is a single bay garage. I'm wondering what the actual dimensions of your main shop area are? My shop is 21'x11.5' x 9'h and wondering how that compares to yours. I'm trying to figure out what machines I want, and how to lay it out. I've been looking at shops which use french cleats, but having everything exposed and getting covered with dust just doesn't seem like a great way to go. Your cabinets are beautiful. It would probably take me years to build those, but they look awesome, and seem to keep everything organized, hidden and clean. Very interesting that you don't use your planer or your CNC much. Those were two things high on my list. I guess it depends on what type of projects you're planning to do. I'm a hobbyist, and have a 3D printer, and I use it a LOT. So I'm guessing that I would use a CNC, which can be a space hog. I've seen that some of them can be mounted vertical (on the wall) so they take up less precious floor space.

Great video, very nice shop. Very curious about the Makita slider, looks like the saw I was thinking about getting, can you tell me a little bit about that?

Thank you! This is the saw; amzn.to/491wTTD I personally love it, it's super accurate compared to other miter saws I've tried, has great dust collection, and it also has a soft start feature as well as a brake so it's nice and quiet when starting and stopping. You don't get that explosive start which a lot of other saws have

really nice shop you got there man, I really enjoyed watching even tho recently got a little burned out in the trades (furniture) and building my own cnc, so maybe if you wanna sell your's at a good price...

I saw a KZfaq interview on a woman’s scroll saw shop. She built a worktop for the Pegus machine to sit into (Much like people do with router tables & miter saws). She cut the top to fit the flat plate of the saw’s table so she would have support for the material. It might even reduce vibration. I don’t remember the channel that had the interview.

@kevinwillis6707 Ай бұрын

Surprised you dont use a mitre guillotine for your frames , i have a jet sander and love it. I also use an i2r cnc, it can pay for itself pretty quick depending on what you use it for, thanks for the tour

@drewpickard554 Ай бұрын

That was one of the better shop tours. And nice shop btw. I did like you throwing out prices and are they worth it. So i do want to mention your cnc. I have a shapeoko 3 xxl. Now the newer ones are more than i paid. But i was $2500 in mine. Ive used it quite a bit and its holding up well. Mines 4x4 but i do agree with you 4x2 is good enough. That said ive found i really think 3x5 would be the true sweet spot, but they dont make them that size. I use a festool ct15 on mine for dust extraction, great tool there. Cncs are only as useful as you make them. Something seeing everything else you have dont forget they are great for templates then use that dusty router table with a flush trim bit.

@SamMacyDesigns Ай бұрын

Thanks so much! I'll be the first one to admit that most of the reason I don't use it as much as I should is just my own laziness when it comes to learning the ins and outs of the machine and it's software. I find that I have to relearn a few of the steps everything I turn it on because I don't use it enough lol. Templates is a great call, I probably could have used it do cut out the opening for the sink in the butcherblock countertop I recently made...I routed it and ended up with a gigantic mess on my hands 😂I think I just need to build up the confidence to incorporate it into day to day work, I bet it would save me a lot of time in the long run

@drewpickard554 Ай бұрын

@@SamMacyDesigns Some of this is what software you have comes into play. My first machine was a cheapo, but I just had a hard time with it. Now I have a shapeoko, but their software Carbide Create is dumb simple. I have no clue if it will work with your machine, but I know its not locked to just them. Granted that means it is limited in some ways, but its just fast to use. Some of it is figuring out what makes sense to do on the machine. Like the picture frames, if you have software that can 3d carves, you could put a pattern on them that would be impossible(or well you would need to be insanely skilled) to make by hand.

Nice operation. Well... maybe small for a US production shop. In Korea in the late 80's saw two people working in about 120 sf shop below their 1-room apartment, entirely with hand tools on a dirt floor. They were making kitchen cabinets. Small is relative, I guess.

So I gave up on trying to buy stuff second hand or from big box stores and just when with middle of the road tools like grizzly machines and just did my best to find stuff with the best reviews that were within my budget

@SamMacyDesigns Ай бұрын

I don't think I've used my planer since I got a drum sander....mostly because unless you buy one of those super expensive helical heads for a planer you're bound to get some tear out of certain wood types. With the drum sander you never get splitting or tear outs and it's nice and quiet. It might take a few more passes to get to your final thickness but I think it's worth it. And I use the scroll saw instead of the CNC because I find it takes longer for me to program the CNC machine and set it up than it does for me to just cut something out on the scroll saw. I find I can also claim it to be "hand made" when not cut out of the CNC

Big disappointment with milwaukee m12 driling machine with hammer. Use very rarely for screw . Sudenly do not work above 7... Unfortunately the service makita is not close to my location and the prices are incredible hight. Almost like makita new. C'mon. I have an impact makita 18v . Intensive use for solar instalation sistems, it is incredible , fall from house , work on -9 celsius. No problem . And less than half price of milwaukee. For me, as trade man I do not care about brand , I care about cost, reliability , quality . For you , as americans , I understand buy made in usa , but for european , diffrent aproach. Good luck.

A few thoughts- You are not using the space above your head. You do not need to watch a CNC in operation. See where I am going with this? My two CNC machines and 2 3D printers do not occupy ground level space. They do not need to. Want to watch it? CCTV is dirt cheap... Outfeed - should be an MFT. Both for tracksaw use and assembly. Power panel. What is not automatic (dust gates and extraction) can be voice controlled. Who wants to walk across the shop to put a light on? You do understand that the word ultimate means cannot be better, anywhere anywhen? Really? Also means you cannot ever change it- because that would be making it worse (by definition). Question- why do you limit yourself to woodwork?
