Can I add another Bora NGX saw clamp extension beyond the eight feet, because the roof is twelve feet and I don't cut accurately. Can you give your opinion.

I was into it and then almost skipped it when I saw pocket holes. But i'm still here. Dude you got skills, why use them. Does a raggedy pocket hole look bete than a row of well placed screw heads??.. I'll shut up now. The lag bolts saved you.
@foxhallww31112 күн бұрын
nah Pocket holes have their place. I am definitely not using pocket holes to assembly a table top. Now, these pocket holes screws are designed to use with 2x material (construction lumber) and are incredibly strong. I use them for any shop project. I also only use them if I can hide them. i also use the HD Pocket hole screws to hang cabinets on a wall. That's how strong they are. I have used them in several videos.

Hey JP, did you resize the 4x4 lumber the way you did on the "half a$$ed" router table? Really like that method. The as-supplied lumber from the big box stores is crappy until you trim it up. Working on the router table and just picked up these plans along with the miter station plans.
@foxhallww3112 ай бұрын
Awesome thanks James. I did not realize the legs on this build. It’s something I did differently on the router table because I didn’t want it to me as bulky. Plus it gave me some extra room for the cabinets underneath.

Nice build. I have the same top and fence so this is perfect so I bought the plans. But I have a few questions. I see that the width of the base is 30 15/16" while the width of my router fence mounting flanges are 29 15/16" wide under the table. I see at time stamp 5:25 your mounting flanges do "fit perfectly". My Jessem phenolic top is 31 7/8 wide, perhaps yours is different? Also, the Bora router that you link in the description looks like a beast. How is that working for you?
@foxhallww3112 ай бұрын
Funny story about the bora. It died. So I bought a spin right router. Which is basically the same thing. spin Right makes the bora router. But the router is fantastic! With every penny. I need to update the link. Also I think I have the first version of that table. So your measurements might be off slightly. Thank you supporting the channel!

I noticed in this video the orbital setting on your jigsaw is set to 3, which makes that blade moves forward as well as up and down. This makes for a faster but rpugher cut. If you set the orbital setting to 0, the blade will only move up and down leaving smoother cuts and better control on the jig saw 👍 hope that helps your relationship, keep up the awesome videos!

Nice bench. 😊. I'm a little confused about a couple of things, though. You clearly don't mind the look of screw heads. I don't either.... especially on shop furniture. With that in mind, why take the time to use pocket screws on the upper and lower frames rather than just screw directly into the 4x4s, AND through the rails into the 2x4s that support the leg assemblies?
@foxhallww3115 ай бұрын
hey Bob! thanks for watching the video. Yes I do not mind screw holes if it's shop project. Honestly, when you are working on the bench you don't really notice the screw holes. If I was making a proper carpenter's bench I would hide the screw holes with plugs. It's dealer's choice. As for the pockets holes, I chose to use pocket holes because of the HD Pocket Hole jig. The HD screws have way more shear strength then standard construction screws. I get your point on using just standard butt joints and screws. I just went with stronger setup.
@bobfre15 ай бұрын
@@foxhallww311 that makes sense. Regardless of the HD screws, I think your bench would be plenty strong.... You definitely didn't half-@$$ anything. 🙂 I just found you. Keep it up, and I'll keep watching. Cheers

13:47 your doing really nice work, but it sounds like your reading off a script. You might try just talking as you make stuff, like your talking to someone in the room. This channel retired redneck Did a bit holder system using cleats and just on a flat card, now if you take the cards out it could be a problem but he was able to store more bits. He also used a cast iron top. But i think these pre-made router table tops are to short i made mine out of a 42"x28" 1.5" thick shelf material i got from a per 1 imports store they put out as trash. Its 7 layers of plywood and mdf very stable material. Not very smooth bit it works fine.
