Thanks for the info,fixing to put one up

I think I will admit myself into the psychiatric ward after this.......

Not bad for using common sense and simple logic . Dovetail way jointer aren’t really meant to be adjusted. They get messed up from people lifting the machine at the end of the tables. Your process was about halfway right. Too me it doesn’t really look Ike you need a jointer right now. Beginning stage of a woodshop?

How tall is the entrance? Would something about 7' 3" fit through?

Just bought it today. I haven't taken anything out of the box yet and watched your video I was going to build directly on the ground. Any comments if I don't use a platform? It concerns me with the thickness I plan to put a riding tracker inside

Hello Lindsey, I found your video because I bought the same used jointer and Im doing maintence, my engine drifts when I turn on the jointer & Im thinking its the belt. I can find any info what belt size. And thats because Im here asking if you could help me with the belt size you have. Regards

Im buying one to live in as a tiny home. No rent ❤

Doesn't look like HF sells that one anymore.... :-(

Mine gets water in coming in up from the floor when it rains its high up but water is coming in from the floor board (plywood) but i have a hover hang of about 4 inches, i guess rain water is coming in through there?

I installed 2 of these sheds and the most important factor is that the base is level because a 1/2 inch difference in the front increases to a 1 inch difference 12 feet downstream in the rear of the shed this causes big time alignment issues!

Can it be used for Edge jointing too?

Does the shed need to be anchored on the floor?

Excellent !! I just got a '48 Cub 2 days ago and this was a great overview..

I am just about finished with mine I don’t like it. I bought a Rubbermaid roughneck was easier and built better this shed was just way to many pieces to assemble compared to the Rubbermaid shed and the floor on the Rubbermaid was double the thickness. I wouldn’t buy this shed again

Satisfying video

Hi rpm motor?

"this is awesome, Just Jacking Up." 😂

Plz someone answer, just got one wasn’t too easy worried about if it’s rain proof

Around here on marketplace the cheapest ones I can find in that 2hp range are all at least 200.00 and look well used. A new one is only 300.00 and a new Wen unit of comparable size is 349.00 so I'm inclined just to go ahead and buy the Wen model which will come with the larger impeller. Buying the harbor freight unit and then buying the wen impeller, I'd end up spending nearly as much as if I just bought the Wen unit outright and then I'd still have to do the modification. Hardly seems worth it to me. I won't be using the bags, or any of the other hardware besides the motor and the platform as I will be piping the exhaust out the back wall of my garage, letting the chips and sawdust accumulate in a pile behind the garage. I'll use them as compost and/or mulch and what I can't use I can haul to the brush pile to burn off later.

I'm surprised that you have put a few of these together you didn't duct tape the joints, just so things don't fall apart as you are working. You can always remove it when you are done, if you like.

Can you share STL file

It a great idea to research before you start. I guess you noticed, Rachael Gingell, from the Steiner videos, and I think she has some videos of her own now, for some reason put the idle tube in the base. She actually drills through from the top ,the bottom of the carburetor, and threads from the bottom and then uses JB Weld to patch the whole in the bottom. She don't show what is done with the original part where the threads are, maybe just shorten the idle tube. It is supposed to reach the area where the idle jet adjustment screw is, in one piece. Thanks for posting this video.

Would a tundra truck fit in there

Put mine together alone in a few days. Nothing beats plastic for being rot free.

Your workbench is way, way too wobbly. It definitely needs more density, to be more massively built. In other words a lot heavier with cross bracing and zero bloody castors. Castors are just another annoying KZbin phenomenon. One wise guy screws castors on and then all the sheep 🐑 follow. Until bloody KZbin I had never seen castors on a workbench. The workbench is your anchor point for the majority of your woodworking. It should be heavy, solid and preferably fixed in position. It’s not a bloody bumper car to be wheeled around. Have you ever seen an anvil on castors? Of course you haven’t. Other than that the video was okay except you jumped and skipped a couple of steps. 😊

I thought i made stuff harder on my self. Putting that together between those containers didnt look fun

If you buy any brand. Use 3/8 self tapping sheet metal screws on the under side and insides of the joints to hold them together firmly. Cut swimming pool tube floatys in half and duck tape them along the top and side horizontal roof runs and vertical corners. This stops them rubbing through the tarp. Lay out the top frame and cover with the roof then use a roller to apply a good coat of UV TRAILOR ROOF SEALER TO THE TOP COVER. THIS WILL ADD TEN YEARS TO THE TOP ITSEL. I SECURED MY TARP WITH 2" pvc pipe halfs screwd on the runs and vertical end rails. Mine tarp is taught, sun proofed and rub proof. Its been doing fine for 4 years and seems like itll go another 4 no problem.

I didn’t see you do anything for the other end of the pipes. How did you fasten them?

thanks for sharing just got one your video will definitely help

I'm thinking of getting one so I can lift the front on my Exmark Radius Zero Turn Mower real high so I can more easily change the blades. Once lifted, does it hold the load or let the load drift back down?

Has anyone removed the impeller guard at the y connector? This unit works great for everything but my planer. The longer slivers from the planer wrap around the "arms" of the guard and constantly clog the hose. As long as I don't suck up a screwdriver I don't think there is much risk. Downside I would guess is being "forced" to do an impeller upgrade if I damage the current one.

I just put one of these together yesterday....and HOLY CRAP was the corners hard to align!!!!!!!! If you buy this be prepared to drop a few F bombs when you get to the corner roof panels.

What did you use for the trim pieces?

I’m just got mine yesterday still working on it. There are a lot of problems. In my kit the part number on screws doesn’t match the instructions. The walls and the floor don’t like the hot sun they warp not wanting to stay together before you can get a screw in them. Definitely a two person job.

I’m doing this same build. I bought some flanged sleeve bearings from McMaster Carr to eliminate the play. 🤞🤞

Ya dun messed up A-aron.... much easier to assemble each upright, then stand them u, adding the crossbars as you go.

Do the straps come with or did you purchase to add extra strength?

How much did your mods increase performance?

Thanks for sharing your build Need all the help I can get🙂

They are nice but the cover will go bad after a few years

Hello , thinking of getting one. While on the hoist does it sag at all? Thanks for your Video.

Thanks for a clear and concise walkthrough, seems like a solid choice.

We just pick this up at harbor freight today. Does anyone know what the movable brackets are for?

How did you secure the shed to the wood base?

Niceee

Bought this for my pop on Father’s Day and we can’t wait to put this together. Awesome video assembly 👍🏽

Take back fence and take it to an engineering place to have it skimmed flat .. shouldn't be to expensive to do ..they do it on car cylinder heads all the time .

This is one of the videos that explains the setup. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3i8lYaIbtecjassi=i-6x_mRuOjILma38

Agonized about posting this but, in the interests of jointers everywhere, I feel I must. This video should have been called "How to NOT set up a jointer". You started off checking your cutter head using the outfeed table as a reference..... and then you moved/shimmed the outfeed table. Just think about that for a moment. One of your tables might have had a slight dip in it but that, while not ideal, is not the cause of your troubles. It does take time, trial and error, to get your both tables coplanar. Use your outfeed table as a reference and then set everything else to be coplaner to that. 99 x out of 100, it should only be necessary to use shims on your infeed table. Lastly, (I might have missed it) you never mentioned or checked your blades. YT is full of videos showing how to properly set the height of your blades with the aid of magnets and a dial indicator if you dont want buy the knife setting jig. There are thousands of people around the world using jointers older and "worse" than yours that work flawlessly. Spend a bit of time on YT and you'll find lots of videos showing how to PROPERLY set your machine up. You will not regret it.

Great channel, new sub. I watched your video on the Harbor freight coverpro portable garage because I just picked one up and then I found this project which is something I will be doing this year as well. How was the garage holding up and did you put any type of floor system in there, gravel or any type of pavers or wood???
