Geez man PLEASE use a push block to feed wood through when the edge is that close to the blade. That aside great idea. I personally want to make a proper carry box for it though as my Titan CS doesn't come with one. I like to keep all my power stuff contained even as a beginner.

11:38 What is happening here? You loosen the clamp, but the top part (now bottom part) does not fall on the floor? That's interesting. I am looking for a router to be used on/under a router table, whose height can be adjusted quickly and easily, without having to spend money on a router lift.

Good Job! You said the router cabinet was too tall making the overall height too high when the cabinet is on your bench. How high is it from the floor to the router table surface? i'm planing on making a router table and now wonder what might be the maximum height. Thanks!

Put your biggest bit in the router, turn on the router and raise the bit into it instead of drilling a hole in the plate. Same with the fence.

Thanks for a great video! Silly question, but where does the water escape? I'm looking to make something like this on a concrete floor, but am unsure what to do about drainage... did you poke holes in the pond liner? Or add rocks at the bottom layer before adding soul? Thanks for any advice! 😊
@TouchWoodWoodworking Жыл бұрын
Yup so you want to poke lots of holes in the bottom of the pond liner for a start. If you're using some sort of membrane then you can leave that as is because it'll let water through on its own. After that though, you'll want to ensure the water has somewhere to go. Of course, the water can't drain through concrete, so will need to run off somewhere. Hopefully your concrete floor runs off in a direction and doesn't just pool the water up. Spray the floor with a hose for a while, find out where the water wants to wander off to, and then cut some hole in the flower bed in that direction.
@oliverparker9940 Жыл бұрын
Do you only need the water channels to prevent the rain filling up your sleepers whilst you're constructed them? I assume once they are lined the water channels aren't required? Great video mate.
@TouchWoodWoodworking Жыл бұрын
You want drainage by poking holes in the plastic, and that water needs somewhere to go. The preference is to use a membrane that’s suitable for plants but I didn’t have any so made do with pond liner and vigorous stabbing. If you build these on dirt with concrete footings you shouldn’t need those channels

Thanks for this. I’m hoping to build something similar for growing vegetables. A couple things I was wondering though.you say to use paint for better protection but everything I’ve seen recommends not using anything on wood like this for the first year because it is already pressure treated. Also, isn’t oil better than paint? Paint sits on top of wood which is why it flakes revealing unprotected timber, and needs to be reapplied a lot and stripped back periodically. oil soaks into the wood so needs less maintenance. The other thing is, could I use vegetable felt lining instead of pond liner so that I wouldn’t need to add a base? That stuff protects but also allows drainage.
@TouchWoodWoodworking Жыл бұрын
Hi Clare. I’m not entirely sure to be honest with you, all I know is that you have to be careful what you put in the wood and how you separate the wood from the dirt because you definitely don’t want the chemicals leaking into your veg! And I think felt will be fine (bearing the above in mind). Hope that helps

Hi, what is the maximum size timber that your Dewalt mitre saw can cut? It seemed to make easy work of those sleepers.
@TouchWoodWoodworking Жыл бұрын
Hey Robbie. The 30cm version which I used in the video was maxed out with those sleepers. If I had the smaller saw, I would have had to make either 2 cuts or 1 cut and hand saw the rest of the way through! So I’d say about 4-5 inches is the max cut depth it can manage

Would it be possible to use a thinner sleeper or wood (maybe scaffold board) only on the rear side where it meets the fence? Looking for a way for it to protrude less without losing planting space. Thanks - great vid.
@TouchWoodWoodworking2 жыл бұрын
G’day cap’n. You probably could but my worry is that it wouldn’t last as long because there’s less wood for the weather to wear down and thinner boards holding back all the dirty would be dealing with more sideways pressure to push them out. Bear minimum you’d have to fasten them quite securely to the other sleepers! Ultimately I’d say it’s up to you but I don’t think I’d use scaffold boards for this

Thanks for the video. May i ask why you think you needed to build the base, inside the planter? What would be the harm in having the liner go straight onto the ground?
@TouchWoodWoodworking2 жыл бұрын
One thing I didn’t point out in the video was that I stabbed a load of holes in the liner for drainage. There needs to be a gap underneath the liner to drain into, so that’s one reason. The other is to allow said drainage to flow around freely/easily so the wood won’t rot as quickly Thanks for the comment
