How did you handle getting the glass out? Did you break it and replace it?

I made a new top for my workmate 30 years ago. Still on the job. Hint: be sure of where your saw blade is going.

I like the footlocker, and I wonder what you keep in it.

No music 👍

So apparently a $42 dollar 18 in. Swaging Tool from Home Depot to crimp ferrules correctly is way too much money . . . and would rather risk injury to crimp your mickey mouse method . . . good luck with that, sir - - - - Un-fuckin-believable - - - - Stay OFF the Internet

Thank you

Nice butter dish but.... 250 bucks???? No.

Nice.

Just need a breaker bar

Great video. My UK Workmate has flat multiply wood Jaws that are flat ( not steeped like yours) is this just an alternate model?

Hahaha! At this point it’ll be cheaper just to go to Harbor freight and get the tool for 10 bucks. Impressed with your ingenuity though

Nice work. My Workmate needs a new top, too.

Great idea. We just need the dimensions.

My friend, I have a 5-inch vise. Can you help me press the piece? I do not have a large size, unfortunately

Great work .. to make all levers easier to handle..

Overall it’s a decent table. If you’re not using it for big heavy projects. Its gets unstable when using my jigsaw and handsaw. Table starts to shake and lifts off the ground. Maybe I’m doing something wrong?Also the folding mechanic works great kzbin.infoUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh when setting up, but I can’t get the table to fold down. It gets stuck 3/4ths on the way down.

Fantastic

At timeline 8:59....on the right side, underneath your picture with a mask....seems it's coming apart......why not simply put it on a base with 4 lockable caster-wheels underneath?....seems that would be a lot less work to build.

Thanks for sharing. That’s a really good old trick I learned as a warehouse worker. I’m 65 now and still use it at home centers on banded lumber and packaging. 👍

Do you have a plan for the jig and how does one get the plan

Thanks for this. I have an off-brand bench that's been needing this for years, and you've given me a good road map. Plus, I found it kind of humorous that you used the old and busted top to work on the new one.😁

Perfect! Thank you!!!

Not sure that equal to a $15 ax handle

what's the name of that metal part that you put of the wire loop at kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKC9oaSsd9iBd9k

I learned that trick years ago when I worked retail. Most of my workers though never seemed to catch on. They would still go searching for a knife.

Good job

Yes, I do this! Just watched your workmate videos and noticed you are aware of the finer points of using your tools and how to get them to do what needs to be done. I appreciate that. I see a lot of other videos from people who either neglect small but important details and end up with subpar results, or people who get decent results but feel a need to use expensive, flashy tools when it's not necessary. I am in your camp.

Wow. The exact same table and the exact same problem as the one sitting in my garage. Very neat! Thanks for sharing this fix - I needed it!

Thanks, restoring a 30 yo table saw...trying to decide on a color. Looked at all the safety colors. Maybe a neutral grey...oh the decisions! 😂

What size bits did you use

Super nice job!

Why not get another bolt with same thread and tack a small bar across the head of the bolt to give you more leverage !!

No obnoxious music... No talking... Just conveying the necessary information via subtitles... Good job!

Hard to do if you only have hand tools.

i'll give you $20.

I like how you edited this! Nice work man! 😊🌎💖💪

Thanks for being real.🔥

What’s the measurements on that vice?

*Show Off! With all your equipment I'd a made it out of Hickory & Cherry and make it thicker chopping blocked designed!*

WOW YOUR ONE OF THE FEW THAT USES JOHNSONS PASTE WAX, IVE BEEN USING IT FOR 40 YEARS GREAT STUFF, MOST CARPENTERS NEVER HEARD OF IT

Very cool!

How about the dimensions

I want that for my old workmate, never gunna happen.

Dang that's pretty good.

Why go to all that trouble and not finish the frame, mitres and joins all have gaps in them, you never fix anything of value with masking tape and never on four sides, plus you need to seal the back.

I wish they sold this in the store.

I’m always in favor of fixing things, but I did not know an axe handle could be mended. Great work!

Mate, very impressed, best one yet.

Wow. Now that is what I call a vice. 🗜️
