Great idea. my problem is my fence keeps moving while the machine is on from vibration, and it throws my cuts off.

Why do you remove the miter gauge before cutting? surely it would be quicker to leave it in place to emulate the commercial guides?

Is there any risk of the doors warping by using thin plywood?
@gemriverbuilds7840Ай бұрын
Generally speaking there should not be because plywood is very stable and there are in this particular project thicker wood strips for the rails and styles that contribute to the stability. But if the plywood is not of good quality, there is a construction problem, or if the doors are exposed to too much himidity, I see how they could possibily warp.

Can you add a list of wood needed for modern book holder?
@gemriverbuilds7840Ай бұрын
Hi, in terms of wood, you can use walnut, white oak, maple, or even pine but you may have to use different finishes depending on the wood. I don't really have a list to provide because all you need to make one of these projects is a single piece of wood or two if you laminate and the sizes are in the video so by using the information in the video you should be able to build these.
@mtz38432 ай бұрын
done these alot, sell well, but i add very then nails to help hold it together with the glue.
@gemriverbuilds7840Ай бұрын
Yes, that is absolutely something that can also be used to help with the glue up. I use brad nails oftern in this kind of projects especially if I use pine or other soft wood and use paint as a finish. But when I work with harder wood like maple/walnut I try to avoid nails because they can be visible I usually use transparent finish.

What product are you using to cover the screws? What brand of glue and glue brush do you use? Thank you!
@gemriverbuilds78403 ай бұрын
To cover the screws I use shrink free spackling paste from Sherwin Williams (but any similar product will work, as long as it is good quality shrink free paste). I was given the glue brush as a gift, I am not sure where it was purchased but it is very similar to those sold at Rockler. I normally use Titebond II or Titebond III as glue. Hope this is helpful and thank you for watching!

Rather than screws for your butt joints, try dowels instead. It gives a similar strength to the joint you are creating. Just put them at a 90-degree angle to the joint.
@gemriverbuilds78403 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for the suggestion, that is indeed a very good alternative to screws. I have not been using dowels that often because I don't have a doweling jig but I definitely plan on getting one soon and on using dowels more often, especially as they create better looking joints and they are quite strong.

I learn easier when the video is what I call “break and build”.. So like Pause and make some sawdust then resume. I think the point in his video labeled Easy and Beginner is for people like me that Need the step by step simple explanation not so much uniqueness in a project. There’s many other makers out there that cater to the more experienced. I’m not there yet 😂 I love these videos. And hope they keep coming.

I believe a few of these 10 projects are more unique or less common out there in the marketplace but as the title suggests the purpose of this video was to show how to make 10 popular projects that are easy to ship and not necessarily to show projects that nobody makes. It is in my experience easier to make something more unique or that is less common or more customized with larger projects to sell. I am working on a video on that exact subject so please stay tuned.

You do realize that circular saws have round blades, right? You are always using 100% of the blade no matter what the depth setting is.
@gemriverbuilds78403 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for your comment and participation. Yes, it is true that 100% of the blade is used but the teeth surface that touches the piece at any single time does depend on the blade depth. If you try a few different depths and draw a line following the teeth that touch the piece you can measure the difference. But it is true that regardless of the number of teeth that touch the piece at any single time it is absolutely true that all teeth at one point of another go through the piece.

A saw cuts much easier when it is set a little deeper because of the angle it hits the grain and it has more time to get rid of sawdust under the cut. The only reason to not cut through deeper is for the safety of not having so much blade exposed.

Thank you, these were great tips. When I first got my miter saw, I didn’t move the fence when I made an angled cut, so, I broke my blade and my fence. I should have watched more videos, I suppose, so I do appreciate these tips. I haven’t used my saw for some time, and I am just starting to get back into working with woods and crafts, so it’s a nice reminder. Many years ago, when I was 18, I worked at a sawmill, on a chop saw without a guard, and I cut the tip of my finger off, so saws do make me nervous. 😬

That was 3/4 inch pine and the board was 7 inches wide. But you can use different sizes, though if the board is much larger, it may be hard to make the cuts with a miter saw. It will depend on how big your blade is. Thank you for the comment and participation.
